On the afternoon of Tuesday 26th August 2025, a family member & I decided to visit the famous Chester Market Food-Hall.
After walking two circuits due to all outstanding premises on offer we ultimately decided upon the MRKT Café.
The service was outstanding yet more importantly visual representations of the menu were presented this is something more eateries should do in just a photo of what each dish looks like on a plate can gain custom.
Chester Market Food-Hall works as follows:
You go to a premises, pay for your dish & potentially beverage then you are given a old-school pager. More than enough seats are available then once the old-school pager is operational via a buzz or ring tone you go to the premises to collect your food.
I would strongly advise if you or anyone accompanying you has mobility issues then be seated as near to the selected premises as possible that way you can politely request if the member of staff can assist you in talking the food to your nearby table.
My family member & I decided on the same dish which whilst I have forgotten the name yet was meat heaven bliss wonderful.
Also, at the Chester Market Food-Hall is a bar selling alcoholic beverages therefore I got two pints of the in-house beer which was outstanding going perfectly with the choice of food.
Chester Market Food-Hall is one of my favourite places in The UK, many thanks MRKT Café.

This place was amazing, the food is affordable, there's loads of it and it's probably the best tasting food I've had in a very long time. The wait was next to nothing and I would truly recommend this place to anyone going to Chester Market

Best breakfast in Chester. Ideal for kids as well with the option of a smaller plate.

Have bought food from here many times and love it but witnessed worrying hygiene protocol when I went at weekend. Saw the chef wipe his face and nose with hands while he was talking to the lady taking my order then went to pick up my pitta with same hands no hand wash etc I promptly cancelled my order and left. Gutted as I?ve eaten here so many times and felt the food handling and hygiene is spot on but I felt sick witnessing this today and won?t be back
Edited to answer response from owner:
This was Sunday 13th evening around 6pm. It was quiet and the chef was at the front speaking with the lady on the till. Face was rubbed with bare hands and I watched him go straight to the back and grab my pitta and start putting the food together. I then told the lady I wanted to cancel. I am sorry to write this review as I have been so many times to your care but I did feel a duty to warn others because of germ risk involved

We were shocked how big it was lol, absolutely delicious nicest I've ever tasted, chips were lovely and nice fresh salad and homemade coleslaw with it made it all a perfect meal.

I usually go to Bean & Cole (whose coffee is top notch) but it was closed, so thought I would give MRKT cafe a try... big mistake! The coffee here is terrible! Very bitter and boiling hot. It took 45 minutes for my takeaway flat white to cool down enough to be able to drink it. The staff were nice enough, but I think they might need some barista training.
I definitely won't be coming back again for coffee.

Tried the butterfly chicken for the first time yesterday and wasn?t disappointed! juicy chicken breast and large portions. Definately a healthier option out there, going back again for it?
