Midday Service

Lunchat Amantola

A relaxed weekend escape — two courses for £9.95, served Saturdays and Sundays from 12pm.

Lunch in Sealand

A proper Indian lunch, minutes from Chester

Amantola sits on Welsh Road in Sealand, a short five-minute drive from Chester city centre and right on the doorstep of Deeside, Queensferry and Broughton. There's free parking out front and easy access from the A548 and A55, so a sit-down weekend lunch is genuinely easy — no city-centre traffic, no hunting for a meter.

Our weekend midday service is built around the people who actually come in: families making a proper occasion of a Saturday, shoppers breaking up a trip to Broughton or Cheshire Oaks, friends catching up over a long table, and anyone easing into a slow Sunday. Kitchen pace is brisk enough if you're heading on somewhere afterwards, and the dining room is calm enough to linger over a second pot of chai if you're not.

Lunch FAQs

What time is lunch served?
Lunch is served Saturdays and Sundays from 12pm to 2.30pm at our Welsh Road restaurant in Sealand, just outside Chester, with last orders for the 2-course special at 2.15pm. Monday to Friday we open at 4:30pm for evening service.
Do I need to book a table?
Walk-ins are very welcome, but weekend lunch is our busiest service, so a table is never guaranteed. We'd recommend booking ahead — especially on Sundays, during school holidays and around bank holidays.
Is there parking?
Yes. There's free on-site parking directly in front of the restaurant on Welsh Road, with easy access from the A548 and A55 — handy if you're driving in from Chester, Deeside, Queensferry or Broughton.
Do you offer takeaway at lunchtime?
Yes — the full lunch and à la carte menu is available for collection from 12pm at weekends and from 4:30pm Monday to Friday, perfect for a quick bite at home or on the way back from a day out.
