Shopping in Watergate Street

Watergate Street is one of the most beautiful streets in Chester. It extends from the Cross at the centre of Chester to the Watergate and Chester Racecourse to the west, in turn dropping 50 feet in height. Watergate Street follows the line of the Roman street 'via principalis' upto the inner ring road, which was the limit of the Roman Fortress. The Street contains many interesting buildings dating from the around 1600 including 'Bishop Lloyds Palace', a fine half-timbered building and Old Leche House to many fine Georgian buildings like Booth Mansion. The street is also home to Gods Providence House.

MD's is a restaurant located in the heart of Chester City Centre. It is run by husband & wife team Mito & Debbie Fernandez, who have worked in catering & hospitality for many years and have combined their experience to attempt to provide a restaurant that can offer something for everyone. MD's has been running for over 8 years and trades in the evenings only, Wednesday - Saturday 5pm - 9.30pm as it runs during the day as its alter ego Katie's Tea Rooms. MD's operates within a C14th, Grade II listed building. It's original use was as a Merchants house, hence the surroundings are very atmospheric. The seating area is set within original sandstone walls and oak beams. Throughout the building many other original features remain such as exposed Wattle & Daub and original wide oak studded doors. All this combines to offer the ideal setting whether it be a romantic meal for two or a large gathering of friends. "We're here to please at MD's". Most of our dishes are freshly prepared to order on the premises by our team of qualified chefs therefore if you have any dietary requirements or personal tastes items may be omitted from sauces or dishes as required. At MD's we strive to run a family style business with all our staff aiming to provide an efficient & attentive service at all times.

Situated some 200 meters from Chester Cross, this fine mid-nineteenth century sandstone church was offered to the Freemen & Guilds of Chester in the early 1960's.

For such functions guests are limited to a maximum of 180 persons. With linked upholstered chairs an audience of 200 persons can be seated comfortably. The Main Hall floor is excellent for dancing and there is "sound-around" audio equipment . A loop system is in operation for the hard of hearing. A further carpeted Lower Hall is available for classes, discussion groups, smaller dinner parties and mini-conferences. This has a maximum capacity of 70 persons. A well-equipped kitchen is available for the preparation of food, with catering by outside companies. There is a licensed bar. A paved ramp to the main entrance affords easy access for those confined to wheelchairs. Accommodation is normally available from 8:00 am. Smoking is prohibited throughout the Guildhall.
