We’re thrilled to share some fantastic news from our esteemed Taste Cheshire member, The Forge at Hotel Indigo Chester! This exceptional restaurant has recently retained its impressive 2 AA Rosettes for Culinary Excellence, solidifying its position as a leader in Chester’s vibrant dining scene.

Earning an AA Rosette is a significant achievement, as it represents recognition by the UK’s longest-standing hospitality评审制度 (píng shěn zhì dù) (review system) – the AA. Their team of experienced inspectors rigorously assess restaurants across the country, making this award a true testament to The Forge’s exceptional quality.

Led by the passionate Head Chef, Dan Regan, The Forge offers a unique culinary experience. Opened in 2021, this 70-seater restaurant is renowned for its dedication to wild, sustainable British ingredients. Their open kitchen utilizes wood and charcoal to create innovative dishes featuring locally sourced and aged meats. Chef Regan’s commitment to sustainability extends beyond meat, with vegetarian, vegan, and fish options available as well. Think Wild Sea Bass Bouillabaisse and Celeriac with miso, seaweed, and mushrooms for a taste of their creativity.

“We’re absolutely delighted to have retained our 2 AA Rosettes,” says Scott Rankin, General Manager of Hotel Indigo Chester. “This prestigious award is a true reflection of our team’s dedication to crafting an exceptional dining experience for our guests.”

This recognition for The Forge comes on the heels of another exciting development for Hotel Indigo Chester. They were awarded the Gold Accommodation Award in the 2023 Taste Cheshire Awards. This prestigious honor underlines their commitment to providing exceptional hospitality alongside outstanding cuisine.

Congratulations to The Forge and Hotel Indigo Chester on these well-deserved accolades! We at Taste Cheshire are proud to have them as members and look forward to their continued success in showcasing the culinary excellence of Cheshire.
