The Falcon, Chester, Medieval pub in Chester, England

The Falcon occupies a black and white half-timbered building with two storeys, featuring sandstone foundations and two prominent gables on Lower Bridge Street.

The structure began as a house in 1200, underwent reconstruction in the 13th century, and became the Grosvenor family residence after Sir Richard Grosvenor acquired it in 1602.

The interior preserves medieval elements including stone piers and a timber partition in the front bar, reflecting the traditional architecture of Chester's main streets.

Located at the junction with Grosvenor Road, the establishment operates as a Samuel Smith's pub, serving Old Brewery Bitter from Tadcaster, Yorkshire.

The building contains a medieval undercroft that functions as a beer cellar, with octagonal stone piers and a central oak beam supporting its structure.
