Is it your kind of place?

Go here if

  • You want brunch, coffee, lunch, cocktails or a casual evening meal close to Storyhouse and the Cathedral.
  • You are planning a baby shower, birthday, small private event or catch-up where the room matters.
  • You like a central independent place that can do daytime comfort and later drinks.

Avoid if

  • You need food on Tuesday or Wednesday.
  • You want a fast, silent lunch stop.
  • You dislike a room that shifts between cafe, restaurant and event space.

Book for brunch groups, evening food, events, private hire and anything around Storyhouse. Check direct for live jazz and bottomless brunch dates.

In a paragraph

Neighbourhood is an independent Northgate Street restaurant, bakehouse and bar for brunch, lunch, evening food, cocktails, live jazz, private hire and small celebrations.

What it's like

Neighbourhood is trying to cover a useful bit of Chester life: brunch in the day, pizza and light bites later, cocktails, cakes, live jazz on selected nights and private hire for people who want a central room without hotel stiffness.

Soft landing for brunch and groups

It is strongest when the plan is social rather than surgical. Baby showers, birthdays, catch-ups, brunches and small groups make more sense here than a rushed lunch between appointments.

Worth knowing

Neighbourhood is best as a flexible social room, not a precision restaurant. Go for brunch, events, drinks and relaxed group food. If your day needs military timing, choose carefully.
