Chester is a beautiful Roman city, with the most complete Roman city walls, and the largest Roman Amphitheatre in Britain. The ancient charm is present all over the city; from the city walls to the riverfront, to the centre, with lots of shops embedded into the 700-year-old buildings. This is the perfect place for independent shops and cafes to thrive. Here is a list of 8 of the best independent cafes in Chester you need to visit.

Hanky Panky is one of the more fun independent cafes in Chester, with the menu based around delicious pancakes with bright and sunny decor.
