Michael Caines dining is a trademark of the ABode hotel group, and its cuisine is well represented at the ABode Chester Hotel. The Michael Caines Restaurant on the fifth floor is the hotel’s formal diner. Its elevated position means guests can enjoy great outlooks over Chester. It contains a contemporary British menu using local ingredients. It offers a two- or three-course lunch menu, as well as an evening a la carte or expansive taster menu.

The adjacent Champagne Bar is ideal for an aperitif or post-dinner drink. It has cocktails, champagne and a light ‘grazing’ menu.

A second laidback choice is afforded by the ground floor MC Café Bar & Grill. It serves a wide range of meals, including breakfast, lunch, coffees and cakes.

It is accompanied by the AbarMC, a lounge bar filled with DJ music, beers, wines, cocktails and champagne, as well as a menu of light bites.
