On the afternoon of Tuesday 26th August 2025, a family member & I decided to visit the famous Chester Market Food-Hall. After walking two circuits due to all outstanding premises on offer we ultimately decided upon the MRKT Café. The service was outstanding yet more importantly visual representations of the menu were presented this is something more eateries should do in just a photo of what each dish looks like on a plate can gain custom. Chester Market Food-Hall works as follows: You go to a premises, pay for your dish & potentially beverage then you are given a old-school pager. More than enough seats are available then once the old-school pager is operational via a buzz or ring tone you go to the premises to collect your food. I would strongly advise if you or anyone accompanying you has mobility issues then be seated as near to the selected premises as possible that way you can politely request if the member of staff can assist you in talking the food to your nearby table. My family member & I decided on the same dish which whilst I have forgotten the name yet was meat heaven bliss wonderful. Also, at the Chester Market Food-Hall is a bar selling alcoholic beverages therefore I got two pints of the in-house beer which was outstanding going perfectly with the choice of food. Chester Market Food-Hall is one of my favourite places in The UK, many thanks MRKT Café.

This place was amazing, the food is affordable, there's loads of it and it's probably the best tasting food I've had in a very long time. The wait was next to nothing and I would truly recommend this place to anyone going to Chester Market
