Fabulous tour - Went on this tour with 4 family members and we all had a great time. Our guide was Giada who told us it was her first solo tour - we would not have known. She was very friendly, very knowledgeable, engaging and a lot of fun. We had 6 food stops, all very nice - vegan options provided at all of them. Staff at all of the stops were also very welcoming. Highly recommend.

Excellent afternoon - Had such a lovely day with Steph, who cares about the rain! Enjoyed lots of enjoyable food & drinks on the tour, plus learned many interesting facts about Chester. Steph is very passionate and keen to ensure everyone is enjoying themselves. We visited: - Green House - European Tapas with stunning food & wine - 5 Rufus Court - Russel's Thai Tapas - Owned by award winning owners of Thai Bahn - 77 Foregate Street. - Huxleys - Cafe on the wall selling locally made craft ale brewed by the owner - Eastgate Clock, East gate Street. - Brewery Tap - Pub in a medieval banqueting hall - 52-54 Lower Bridge Street. - Providence Gin - Gin Bar in one of Chester's most important 17th century buildings - 9 Watergate Street. I won't spoil the surprise and tell you what we had. An added bonus was when we sampled some gorgeous chocs whilst visiting visited Sam Joseph's Chocolate Shop in the market, Sam and Claire actually joined us on the tour. Can thoroughly recommend - an enjoyable way to visit Chester.

Highly recommend 100% - My husband and I were looking to do a tour in Chester and we found Chester Food tour on Trip Advisor with high ratings. We decided to give one a try. The tour was beyond our expectations and we really enjoyed it. Steph took us around the city trying different restaurants and along the way we received a lot of historical stories that were fun and informative. The places that she chose to take us were unique and very tasty! Steph is an easy person to be around and made the whole experience a lot if fun! We only had one day to spend in Chester and I think the tour was perfect! Later we went to a wine bar she suggested and it was great as well!

Amazing day out! - We had an absolutely amazing day! Steph was fabulous and so knowledgeable. We got to try some incredible food, learn all about Chester, and her company made the whole experience even better. Everything tasted delicious, we even loved the smoked salmon so much that we bought extra to take home. We would definitely recommend!

An Absolute Must-Do Experience! - If you want to truly experience the heart and soul of Chester you need to book this food tour immediately. Our guide, Steph, was phenomenal. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable about the local culinary scene, but she also shared fascinating stories about the history of the areas we walked through. It felt less like a formal tour and more like exploring the city with a deeply passionate local friend. Everything we tasted was incredible. We visited some local spots that we never would have discovered on our own. The tour was perfectly timed. We never felt rushed. This tour offers the perfect blend of amazing food, rich history, and great company. It is worth every single penny. Thank you to again to Steph for an unforgettable afternoon. We will absolutely be recommending this tour to everyone we know!

Fantastic food tour with a very knowledgeable and friendly guide - My husband and I have been on a number of food tours, and this was definitely one of the best. Steph was an amazing guide. She reached out before the tour to confirm if we had any dietary requirements and if we drank alcohol. I really appreciated this, as I don't drink alcohol. As it happens we were the only ones booked on the tour. I love the fact Steph still did the tour with just the two of us; we've previously had guides cancel on us because they didn't have enough people booked on. It was a great mix of delicious food and visiting fab sites around Chester. Every place we eat at was great and really welcoming. They were all proud of their offerings, as they rightly should be - championing local produce. It was a great way to try places I'm not sure we would have necessarily found on our own.

Exceeded expectatioms - Great tour - I wasn't certain exactly how this would go and so it far exceeded expectations. The cost of the experience was most reasonable considering the value it provided. Not only was it like a tapas meal on the go, but it was an educational tour also, taking in some delightful eateries / restaurants / pubs whilst listening to facts about Chester as we roamed the city. The food offerings were all different to cater for all tastes, all of a sensible size to sample the tastes of each venue whilst not filling you up so you could continue the tour, little and ofen, but no too little, a reasonable taster in each venue. Teh venue's greeted us with a welcome smile and bought food to us in a timely manner, no long waits at all. Our guide, Steph, was very good at making us all feel comfortable ensuring we were having a good time on the tour, involving all in conversation so that at the end of the tour you felt you had spent a couple of hours or so with friends. I would recommend this tour if you want a gentle amble in the city, you'll taste some delicious food and your guide will be great company as they tell you stories and facts relating to Chester.
