Visited on Saturday 28th may to watch the new Tim Firth play 'now is good'. Excellent cast and great play. Made me quite emotional, as well as it being funny. I asked at the bar if i could pass on my comments about how good it was and the young lady pointed me towards a gent at the end of the bar, Tim Firth. He was very gracious and polite. The storyhouse is s wonderful little theatre, very friendly and accessible. It wasn't a full house that night( due to the uefa champions league match) but the cast played as if to a full house. Staff are always helpful, amenities are always clean. Recommend both storyhouse and the play 'now is good).

It's a brilliant place - looks ordinary even a bit ugly from outside but full of characters inside. It has a bar, a cinema, a theatre and a very lovely public library with laptop stations. The theatre is currently featuring "Pride and Prejudice (sort of)" - a fun play definitely worth seeing if you are in town.

Love their atmosphere. Enjoy Christmas at Storyhouse. Cafe, library, theatre, cinema.. everything in one. If you come to Chester and look for staying a reasonable time indoor, then go to storyhouse. Kid, young adult, adult, elder, disabled are all welcome.

I photographed a wedding at Storyhouse back in April and WOW! What a place. The staff were incredible at making Becky & John's wedding day extra special. The couple had quite an alternative day, featuring a humanist ceremony in the theatre space, stormtroopers, and a Mario Kart tournament on the big screen. They then had the party in the same room in with a live band in the evening. Everything ran smoothly, and the staff could not have been more helpful. I would highly recommend this place for a non-traditional wedding celebration. The building is also an amazing community space, with theatre, library, cinema, cafe and more.... and I can't wait to come back. I also enjoyed a coffee and cake in the cafe - the vegan options were fantastic. The also got to partake in the wedding food and it was sooo good! Here are a few photo highlights of their day.

I had not heard of Storyhouse until I was passing through Chester & had a 4 hour wait for onward transport. It is a fantastic concept. Theatre, Cinema, Restaurant, bar & library, free WiFi, all in one building. All the staff were helpful & engaging. I was alone & many of the bar / restaurant tables were for up to 6 people. I was soon joined by a family of 4 & we chatted like old friends. The interior design is really welcoming & very well thought out as a social space. Can’t wait to go back & visit for a show!

What a lovely place and under one roof. Watched the performance of the Full Monty yesterday, it was brilliant! And for those who took along their other half no problem, they can sit, read or have a drink whilst one is watching the show, would definitely visit again.

My favorite place in Chester. A cozy spot to read multiple books on different topics, grab a snack and a drink in a cafeteria and enjoy a movie upstairs. Absolutely love it + a convenient schedule! I find it cool that the Storyhouse works till the late night time, so I shouldn’t worry too much about where to study at night.

2 different ways of being treated depending on your social status: Helpful and attentive if you are a theatre or cafe goer. Lazy and rude if you need to use computers and printer.
