3 weeks agoWe wanted a Sunday roast for a party of 12 and this was recommended by a friend. However, it was a very disappointing meal, the roast was bland, and the desserts were not nice at all, we didn't even finish it! The crumble was stogey and custard was gloopy. The yorkshire pudding was burnt and the gravy was watery. The pub itself wasn't that busy, yet it was still hard to get the waiters attention. However, that said, there was a girl who was friendly and apologetic to us when she served us, hence the 2 stars for service. There was quite some wait for the despite us ordering in advance as we were a big party group; even the kids ice cream took about 10mins to be served, we had to chase it! Overall, I wouldn't recommend but hopefully it was just a one off for them?

3 months agoWe stopped her on our way home from a trip to the coast, the staff were really welcoming, our food was hot and plentiful overall a lovely little pub and restaurant, I would of given 5 stars but they didn't have a child's menu so my daughter had a huge burger, which of course she couldn't finish, the Chequers also has a car park and beer garden with a nice kids play area ....(so why no menu?)

2 months agoWarmly welcomed, nice outdoor area with kids play area, food was stunning. Staff were nice and softly spoken. We could hear the pub quiz going on a few tables away and ended up joining in unofficially (and even got a few right - bonus we didn't though!)

2 weeks agoVery disappointed. Lovely setting, good selection of beers, staff very nice, but the food is not great which is a shame. Has so much potential. We have to talk about the chips? I have no idea how they were so bad, but they must be reheated or old as they were chewy and just awful. They even looked anemic. Cheapest and easiest thing to get right but these were bad.

2 months agoReally great atmosphere. Wide selection of beers (both ales and lagers) and was impressed with the gin selection too. Food took a while to come out, but more than worth the wait. We all had roasts (the beef is pictured) and so amazingly tasty; I'm not a Yorkshire pudding fan, but that was incredibly delicious!!! Desert was incredible too. Staff were lovely and really knowledgeable about beer and very attentive. Can't wait to return.
