About This Pub
Ah, The Cat in Ellesmere Port – what a spot it is for a laid-back get-together. From the moment you step in, you're greeted with that genuine, homely vibe that's hard to beat, thanks to the super-friendly team and regulars who make everyone feel welcome. They've nailed the drinks game with a cracking range of beers, wines, and more, plus that dog-friendly beer garden is an absolute treat for a cheeky outdoor session. And let's not forget the buzz from events like live music or watching the footie – it's got that community spirit that's just spot on for a fun night. On the downside, though, the food options are pretty basic, mostly sticking to simple bar snacks, so if you're hoping for a hearty dinner, you might need to look elsewhere. Still, with its affordable prices and family-oriented feel, it's a solid choice for a relaxed evening, and I'd say it's well worth a visit if you're in the area – just pop in and see what all the fuss is about!

Great pub friendly locals, a proper pub!
Amazing pub. Great staff, great customers. You enter as a stranger and leave as part of the "family". Everyone gets a warm welcome everytime.
A nice place. Lovely attendants and a place which is home, a way from home. Almost one year.
