The drinking establishments of Saxon Chester are a mystery to us.
The nineteenth-century historian Thomas Hughes wrote, 'Anglo-Saxons
had their eala-hus [ale house], win-hus [wine house] and cumen-hus
[inn]'. We don't know where they could have been located, but we do
know that weak beer was the staple drink throughout the land
because it was safer to drink than water. Chester has many cosy,
historical and picturesque public houses, some that have served the
public for hundreds of years. Chester pubs, like those throughout
the country are going through a time of radical change. Reinvented
for a new generation of patrons, many of the pubs have turned into
gastro and themed pubs and bars. Within the pages of the Chester
Pubs you will find a mixture of typical pubs from down the ages,
some from a long way down, and a few of the newer bars.
