The Hand At Llanarmon, Llanarmon Dyffryn Ceiriog

Save up and treat yourself. Everything about this place is quality. Bit restricted on the ales but at least it has a couple. Menu and food is good resteraunt standard. If you don't know the area then there is the added treat of a jaw-droppingly beautiful trip up the Ceriog valley. Book a meal in the bar - a week in advance - this place won't disappoint.

The Falcon, Chester

A meal and a drink in the upstairs room at lunchtime is the best deal in town. Rock solid Sam Smiths quality at unbelievably low prices. Hubby says Humphrey Smith should be running the country. Nice building pleasant staff. Why go anywhere else?

If a lanlord sees fit to put up these in-your-face proclamations of who he will and won't serve then he sets high standards for himself.
A) Although the menu looked good it was expensive. It may have been excellent but we couldn't afford it because:
B) We had just paid �7.20 for a pint of ale and a gin and tonic.
Suggest he adds the following line to his many notices "Only enter if you're prepared to be ripped-off".
The interior is nice enough if a bit overdone with the WW1 stuff - but �7.20 - for heaven's sake.
