Our culinary offerings are a reflection of our boundless artistic passion and creativity.

as day to day dining, we host a variety of art and craft workshops. This unique space also serves as a picturesque backdrop for business gatherings, weddings, and private parties.

It is with deep sadness we are letting you know that The Arthouse will be closing its doors for good at 4.30pm on Monday 5th May.

It’s been a very difficult decision to make but necessary due to the current week day trading conditions and the rising costs we face as a small independent non-profit business.

We are devastated to have to lose what we’ve created over the last few years and so sad for our amazing team that have helped make the Arthouse what it is.

Thank you to everyone who has visited us, worked with us, ate with us, drank with us, supplied us, got married with us, attended workshops, parties and the many events we have held in this amazing building, 12 Bridge street, Chester 🤍

💫Welcome to our 13th century crypt!! 💫

It’s believed to have been constructed somewhere between 1210-1230 as a store for merchant traders to keep their valuables cool and safe from fire. There are around 20 of these undercrofts within the city. Ours is the only one with stained glass windows and a secret staircase up to the first floor and is built of sand stone with beautiful vaulted arches.

As the space is so flexible and inviting, today, we use it for a multitude of things such as workshops, dining, life drawing classes, our new art club, wedding ceremonies and even a dance floor for private hire events.

Come check it out on your next visit xx
