Amazing pub experience with scenic views of Chester Racecourse
Review: I recently had the pleasure of visiting The Architect Pub in Chester, and I must say, it was an extraordinary experience. Situated overlooking the Chester Racecourse, the pub boasts breathtaking views that perfectly complemented the fantastic dining and drink options.
The food at The Architect Pub is truly exceptional. Every dish I tried was prepared with great care and attention to detail. From delectable appetizers to mouthwatering main courses, their menu offers a delightful range of options that cater to various tastes. The flavors were rich, the presentation was impeccable, and the portions were generous.
The selection of beer and wine available at The Architect Pub is commendable. Whether you're a beer aficionado or a wine lover, you'll find a wide array of options to satisfy your palate. The staff is knowledgeable and ready to offer recommendations based on your preferences, ensuring you find the perfect drink to complement your meal.
The staff's attentiveness and friendly demeanor added to the overall charm of the place. They were attentive without being intrusive, providing exceptional service throughout my visit.
The highlight of my experience, however, was undoubtedly the stunning view of the Chester Racecourse. The panoramic scenery created a delightful ambiance, making the dining experience even more memorable.
Overall, I highly recommend The Architect Pub to anyone looking for a remarkable dining experience in Chester. With its delightful food, extensive drink selection, and picturesque views, it truly stands out as an exceptional...
Read moreCame here for dinner and unfortunately found the food to be average. We'd heard really good things about the architect, so it may be that we just had a one-off bad experience, but the food we felt wasn't up to the hype. I went for the piri piri chicken burger. The chicken was cooked nicely but had zero piri piri flavour. At least I couldn't taste it at all. It also had the smallest amount of garlic mayo, which I just couldn't taste. The coleslaw was nice and very creamy. I put it on the burger, and unfortunately, due to no piri piri flavour coming though, it turned the burger into a creamy burger, which wasn't too pleasant. The fries were OK, but nothing special. My wife went for the ragu pasta. I tasted it too, and both of us felt there was too much sauce. More pasta was needed. The sauce was so acidic that it wasn't pleasant at all. We had a side of onion rings and have to say these were delicious. Definitely recommend them. Overall, with tip, we paid £60, which we felt was overpriced for what we got. The staff were very friendly and quite attentive, although we did need to wait quite a while at the start to get drinks, which was a little frustrating. I actually went looking for the staff to get the drinks ordered. The venue is lovely, really enjoyed being there. We may try again on the basis that we just made poor decisions, but given the number of places to eat in Chester, we aren't sure...
Read moreWhat a polava. There were two veggie options available on the menu, and out of 11 of us, 4 of us veggies ordered the tortellini for £15 each. What stingy portions. Three of us got 5 pieces of pasta, and one got 4. One of the group even ordered another starter as soon as he saw his dish knowing it wouldn't be enough. After the meal I tried to very politely give some feedback to one of the staff members, but the conversation was interrupted by a "supervisor" who insisted I should have said something when she came round to ask if everything was alright, which was before I'd even started eating. She insisted she came around a second time, which none of the group recall. But I gave the feedback (politely, until this confrontational person came along), so what's the problem? I wasn't asking for compensation, refund, free food, or anything like that. I just wanted to pass on my feedback, as I also work in an industry where constructive customer feedback is important. The "supervisor" just seemed in the mood for a row. It seemed somebody behind the scenes appreciated my concerns, as all four meals were quietly deducted from the bill, but the whole argument situation with the "supervisor" left me feeling very unhappy after what should have been a nice...
