Relaxing , interesting food and drink tour - We had such a wonderful time on the Food & Drink Tour in Chester with Steph. We truly enjoyed every moment of it. Steph is a local and clearly knows the city incredibly well. She took us to so many lovely, relaxing places that we would never have discovered on our own. Even though we live not far from Chester and have visited many times, we had no idea these hidden gems existed. Steph spent a lot of time with us, sharing interesting stories, history, and making sure we were enjoying the experience. The pace was perfect and the whole tour felt very friendly and personal. It was such a great way to explore Chester through food, drinks and local stories. We discovered some fantastic places that we will definitely come back to in the future. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Chester – even locals like us!*

A super Chester food and drink tour. - Steph was a super tour guide. She knew lots about Chester and its history, but her insight into its hospitalities and their owners was fascinating. The food and drink was well thought out and included mostly local produce. We will try and book onto other tours Steph hosts and will definitely revisit some of the hostelries.

Fantastic afternoon. - We met up with friends in Chester and booked the walking food tour with Stephanie. Wow what an afternoon we had from start to finish. We now know so much more about the history of Chester. Stephanie is so knowledgeable and we enjoyed all the quirky tales too. The chosen venues were perfect, every one of them we found interesting along with the fabulous food and drink. Can’t believe how quick the time went finishing off the most delicious gin. Thank you so much Stephanie you are amazing.

Absolutely Fantastic - We had a fantastic time with Steph and the group. Went to some absolutely wonderful places in Chester which we wouldn't have known about without Steph, her historical knowledge was also great. Shame it rained for most of it, but we were in West Midlands in February, had our waterproofs so were fine!

An afternoon very well spent! - We spent a very lovely Valentine’s afternoon with Steph and the rest of the attendees, visiting loads of places around the city and picking up facts and fascinating stories along the way! Steph is a brilliant host, friendly and super knowledgeable, and is great at getting people comfortable and relaxed (the wine helps too 😁) Would definitely recommend and in fact I’m already booked on another tour!

Fantastic history and brewery tour - We were given vouchers to go on Steph’s brewery and history tour - and what a great present it turned out to be! I thought I knew much of Chester’s history - but after Steph’s really interesting tour around the city centre, taking in The Walls, The Rows and the Cathedral, I realised what a fascinating history Chester has had. And not forgetting a ‘refreshment break’ at what must be Chester’s smallest pub in a most unusual location! Following the tour Steph led us to the secret setting of Spookton Brewery just off the centre, where we were treated to an excellent explanation of the processes involved in micro-brewing by the enthusiastic and knowledgeable owner Jon. This was followed by a sampling of the various ales on offer - you really must try the ‘Cookies and Cream’ brew while you’re there. Lunch is provided by one of the various pop-up caterers at the brewery. We really enjoyed the whole 3½ hours thanks Steph!

Absolutely amazing and GREAT value for money - Wow! What an amazing tour! I've never done one in the UK but this was everything I could have hoped for and more. All of the food was fantastic, the venues were brilliant, I loved all of the history and information. The tour guide (Steph) was the cherry on top! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Chester (be it your first time or somewhere you visit regularly). We will be back!
