When it's cold outside, sometimes there's nothing better than a good pie.

In fact, it doesn't even have to be cold to enjoy the ultimate pastry treat, and Chester isn't short of places where you can find just that.

New research has shown that 75% of people enjoy a pie at least once a month and to celebrate British Pie Week, which falls this week, we have highlighted five of the best in Chester and the surrounding areas.
