What it's like
Cosy Club is the Coachworks Arcade all-day restaurant and bar for breakfast, brunch, cocktails, group meals, children, dogs in the bar area and Northgate plans.
Cosy Club is a chain, but Chester gets a useful version of it. The Coachworks Arcade room has scale, warmth and a bit of visual theatre, which helps when the brief is "somewhere nice enough, central enough, and not tiny".
It is broad rather than brave: breakfasts, brunch, small plates, mains, cocktails, private-hire options and enough menu range to stop a group argument before it starts.
Worth knowing
Cosy Club is not a local discovery. It is a useful, roomy, good-looking chain in the right bit of town. That is enough when the group needs easy.

Nearby alternatives and add-ons.
Popina Popina Chester is a Northgate wine bar for sharing plates, charcuterie, cocktails, wine and pre-Storyhouse or Picturehouse drinks. It is useful when you want a polished glass of something and a table of small plates, not a full restaurant production. 
Shropshire Arms The Shropshire Arms is a lively Northgate Street drinkers' pub, close to the Town Hall and built around sport, live music, cask ale and a straight pint rather than a carefully styled night out. It is useful when you want screens, a bit of bustle, pavement seats and somewhere central that still feels like a pub, not a concept. 
Maray Maray Chester brings the Liverpool-born small-plates restaurant to Northgate, with Middle Eastern and Mediterranean-leaning dishes, cocktails and wine in a modern city-centre room. It is a good fit for sharing, grazing and ordering too much flatbread, less so for anyone who wants the old starter-main-dessert routine without negotiation.
