Love is in the air as Valentine’s Day falls once again upon Chester. The annual romantic celebration this year is unavoidably different within lockdown restrictions but does not mean you cannot treat your significant other with the affection they deserve. The city is usually visited by swathes of people from all over the UK every year for this exact date due to its popularity as a cosy, romantic city encased within it’s beautiful historic Roman-built walls.
This year the city’s businesses have adapted magnificently offering so many delicious, romantic dining experiences for you to takeaway and enjoy in your own homes…what better way is there to celebrate the ‘Feast of Saint Valentine’ than to keep it local?
It’s not just about food either, you can watch a Storyhouse at Home film, if you fancy something more cerebral then plan your escape with Breakout or you could sit and plan a future visit to Chester – the original city of love and home to Edgar House, voted the most romantic hotel in Europe. You can even contribute to charity with Sausage Fest for Valentine’s Day. You can order a box of the legendary BarLounge honey and mustard mini sausages, to be delivered (or collected on 13 February and all proceeds are going to the Cash for Kids charity.
The current situation may leave you feeling a little less romantic than a normal Valentine’s Day and that is understandable. We think that with enough effort and planning, this may be the most intimate Valentine’s Day to date due to the exceptional times we currently live in.
Check out all of the great options awaiting you below for special deals for an equally special night, whether it be food and drink, things to do or places to stay for Valentine’s Day:
