Away from the hustle & bustle of Chester City Centre, make your way to just outside the city walls and join us for a drink down by the river.

Stroll down to the idyllic River Dee and stop off at The Boathouse to rest your legs, recharge and grab a bite to eat. There’s plenty of choice on our menus, with a number of vegetarian and vegan options available. We also serve arguably the best Sunday roast in Chester. Come and join us this weekend and see what all the fuss is about.

Fancy a drink with your food? How about a line-up of award-winning cask ales, lagers and wines & spirits from around the world? For cask ale lovers, we serve JW Lees’ Bitter, Manchester Pale Ale and a number of seasonal beers throughout the year. We also pour both Manchester Craft Lager and Original Lager; the perfect accompaniment to a sunny afternoon sitting in our scenic floating beer garden.

As well as our award-winning line up of cask ales on the bar and delicious dishes from the menu, we provide comfortable and attractive accommodation if you’re looking for a relaxing place to stay.

Our menus are packed full of tasty dishes for you to try, including seasonal specials our truffle oil & honey baked camembert, the pub classics; Fish & Chips, our legendary cheese & onion pie and not forgetting the iconic Brewery Tower Burger.
