Fun foodie tour of Chester, great day out! - We had the best time, I wasn't sure what to expect of Chester's food, but the places we visited were so interesting! We ate so much amazing food, and it showed how diverse Chester has become, I don't remember it having so many superb independent venues. Gin distilled on site was impressive and the awesome owners at every stop made it. Our tour guide Steph was hugely entertaining, polite and knew funny and interesting stories about Chester. We saw loads of Chester and that was really special. I'd say yo anyone to go, it's a fun day, lots of quality food and drink. TGhanks Steph! :)

Chester on a plate - I would highly recommend one of stephs tours. She kindly arranged a private food and drink tour for myself and 3 friends from Australia and new Zealand who were in chester for one night only. It was the perfect way to learn about the city and explore some lovely and very welcoming food and drink venues. By we got to our dessert stop we were forcing our food down us as we were so full, so certainly go on an empty stomach. One of my friends commented that it was like sitting down with an old friend not a tour guide as steph was so open, charming and thoroughly amusing. By the end of the evening our heads were filled with knowledge, our tummy's filled with food and our hearts filled with laughter. Thank you steph for a great tour...despite the weather!

A great history and foodie experience! - What a lovely day 😍 We were kindly invited by Steph to try the Sunday Food Tour, and despite the rain, we had a fantastic time! Not only do you get a few steps in and learn a lot about the history of Chester, we stopped at 9 independent restauranteurs with small bites to eat and drinks along the way. Considering I used to live in Chester, I hadn’t been to a single one already! Not only this, but you got to hear from the business owners themselves, how they started up and more about the food you were eating. Steph is wonderful tour guide and would highly recommend taking up one of her tours! ❤️

A brilliant birthday present! - This food and drink walking tour was a birthday present for my husband and what a brilliant idea that turned out to be! We knew Chester a little but our very knowledgeable (and highly amusing) guide, Steph, told us lots of things about the history of this beautiful city that we hadn't dreamed of. The food and drink were excellent, the venues were very welcoming and it was nice to stretch our legs and get our appetites back between each stop. Also, our family group included a teenager with food allergies (nuts, sesame, egg) and Steph made sure that they were fully catered for and had a great time too. Thanks, Steph! I heartily recommend this tour if you have half a day to spare in Chester and you like great food.

Eye opener! - Astonishing that Chester has so much to offer! Thought I knew the city but Stephanie’s opened my eyes - tremendous host who had clearly done her homework. Do make time to join one of her tours.

A fantastic afternoon of eating, walking and chatting, perfect! - A fantastic tour of Chester. The food was delicious. We haven’t been to any of the eateries before and I didn’t know many of them even existed - some real hidden gems. The host was fun and her stories really added to the experience. I thought I knew a lot about Chester already but the host was very knowledgeable and we learnt many new things about the history of the city. We’re looking forward to trying the evening tour next!

A must do experience! - I did this food tour with my partner and I cannot recommend it enough! The numerous food stops were all excellent and Steph the guide was a great host. As well as trying great food from independent eateries we also learnt loads about the history of the city and had a lot of fun along the way! There were locals on the tour with us and they were surprised to discover so many hidden gems they were not aware. I've done a lot of food tours in European cities and this one is up there with the best, go check it out!

A must for foodies in Chester - Enjoyed a brilliant introduction to Chester's thriving food and drink scene, enjoying amazing food and drinks at some of the city's tucked away gems. Steph was great fun and hugely knowledgeable. The highlight for me was hearing the stories and passion of the restaurant owners, chefs and bar staff, all translated into a superb culinary experience
