What's on at Off The Wall

All Chester events

In a paragraph

Off The Wall is the large St John Street pub-bar for live sport, bottomless brunch, burgers, pizza, wings, cocktails, pool, outdoor seating and late nights near the Amphitheatre.

What it's like

Off The Wall is a crowd-absorber: screens, deals, brunch, sport, pool, pub food, cocktails and late hours in a very central position.

Screens, brunch, late-night volume

It is useful precisely because it is not delicate. If the group needs football, drinks and food without making a reservation at a serious restaurant, it can do the job. If you want atmosphere in the old-Chester sense, look elsewhere.

Worth knowing

Off The Wall is not pretending to be subtle. Use it for screens, brunch, late opening and group utility. If you want quiet, real ale and old-pub character, it will annoy you quickly.
