Discover Chester with the city’s original award-winning food tours. Since 2018, our expert guides have led small groups to hidden gems, local food heroes and tastings at independent restaurants.
A Taste of History: Discover the Soul of Chester
To walk through Chester is to walk through 2,000 years of history. You can trace the footsteps of Roman legionaries along ancient walls and gaze up at the world-famous medieval Rows. But to truly understand the soul of this city, you have to taste it.
Tucked away in the timber-framed buildings and down hidden cobbled alleys lies a vibrant, modern food scene built on centuries of tradition. It’s here you’ll find passionate artisans, brewers, and chefs who are writing the next chapter of Chester’s story. Our walking food tours are your exclusive invitation to meet them. We’ll take you beyond the landmarks to uncover the flavours and stories that bring the city to life, one delicious bite at a time.
Explore our curated culinary journeys below and find your perfect taste of Chester.
