Dublin Packet
27 Northgate Street, Chester, Cheshire, CH1 2HA
NEST PUBS - REFURB PLANNED
The Dublin Packet is a traditional pub situated in the heart of Chester. It is famous for having the late great Footballer Dixie Dean as landlord. We are planning for a full refurbishment of the pub to transform it into a Nest franchise pub. The investment will see the pub be completely redecorated with all new fixtures and fittings. There will also be major improvements made to the bar, all trade areas and toilets. All major sporting events will be shown in the pub and the pub will offer a simple food offer of pizza served from the back of the bar. As a franchisee, you'll be able to focus on serving the local community whilst offering great entertainment and service, with the help and support of Greene King behind you.
