Myself and my partner like to eat out we are lucky we live in Chester so many great food places but we go to the same favourites alot as rarely go out with two young girls now. On a rare babysitting night I wanted something different to just eating out so I found the cheese and wine tour idea and booked. In all honesty I didn't know what to expect and thought I'd be hungry as wasn't dinner but omg was I wrong. Each venue was new to us some with private tasting. The cheeses and wines were delicious the company was incredible. Steph also gave us a few brilliant facts about Chester. Overall I had the best night great company great cheese and wine. I cannot wait to book the full food your as soon as we have another child free night. Huge thanks xx

Fantastic day, visiting several different outlets for predominantly locally sourced savoury, sweet and alcoholic treats. Steph was hugely engaging and knowledgeable and the whole afternoon (around 5hrs) was a lot of fun. Highly, highly recommend.

My Dad and I recently experienced the Chester on a plate food tour and had an amazing time. Steph was a wonderful tour guide and showed us round some of the historic sites around the city which were very interesting to learn about. Plenty of fantastic culinary stops on the way and the day just flew by. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who enjoys quality food, a bit of history and a great laugh along the way. Thank you very much Steph.

The whole experience was very special. We were 3 couples who live in Chester but learned so much more about our beautiful city from Steph. Steph guided us round the city with stops along the route where she gave us so much historic information. This was complemented by food stops at independents where we tasted some amazing food and drinks and learned about the individual owners’ food journeys. Thanks Steph!

Spent the day eating our way around Chester and honestly… what a treat! 😋 Steph was the BEST guide — so friendly, funny, and full of amazing local stories. Every stop had something delicious, from sweet to savoury, and we discovered places we’d have totally missed on our own. Loved the mix of food, history, and hidden gems — and the portions were super generous If you’re ever in Chester and love good food + good vibes, you have to do this tour with Steph. 10/10 would do it again 💕🍰

Extremely fun tour with a perfect combination of history about the city, walking and good food and drink. Nice composition of snacks and drinks, even dessert has been thought of. If someone has special wishes in terms of food, they adapt the food. The guide Steph is a wonderfully fun, enthusiastic woman, who shares fun facts, history and private stories with enthusiasm. Top activity that we definitely recommend. Worth the money!
