Joseph Benjamin is a restaurant and delicatessen tucked against Chester’s city walls at the top of Northgate Street.

Our simple plan is to create top quality food with style and imagination as well as respect for traditional methods.

The restaurant menu itself is a work in constant progress; following the seasons, availability of local produce and our imagination.

Alongside our homemade produce (made right here, on the premises) including cakes, pastries, pâtés, terrines, chutneys and pickles, our on-site delicatessen is stocked with a selection of excellent quality items sourced locally, nationally and from around the world.

Lunch is served daily from 12 till 3pm (closed Monday) and dinner from 6pm until 10pm on Thursday, Friday and Saturday only. We are also open throughout the morning and afternoon serving coffee, homemade cakes and other light snacks.
