Excellent food and service, very reasonable prices, especially if you take advantage of the seventh heaven (dining between 6 - 7), good selection of ales.

Sunday Lunch was very good and good value too. A warm welcome, good service and delightful country pub atmosphere. I would have rated it a full 6 if I had received french mustard instead of english mustard when requested. A trivial thing but for a score of 6 even these small things count in my opinion. Highly recommended.

Good food and beer at The Chequers, we had the special price menu which is limited choice but still good food, unfortunately my meal - sausage and mash well, to say the portion of mash was small is an understatement, I went away hungry!

Cold night, log fire, good atmosphere. Good food and thoroughly enjoyable. A minor bill issue but hardly worth bothering about. Would go again to utilise Sunday deal

Been here many times before and our last meal met its usual high standards. Would thoroughly recommend this pub/restaurant. The lovely open fire in the bar added to the atmosphere on what was a really cold night

We went for Sunday lunch. Friendly, polite service. Lovely setting/atmosphere-cosy country pub with open fires. Excellent food. Only change I'd make - would be nice to see a veggie version of a Sunday roast (such as veggie pie/strudel with all the normal trimmings) rather than a totally different dish. But otherwise can't fault the place! We will definitely return.

Long wait to order food. Was offered complimentary drinks but drinks that were supposed to be complimentary were charged for on the bill. My husband did not want to spoil my birthday so did not question the bill. Food and staff were lovely.

Really good Gastro dining and great service. Our French guest was very impressed with the selection on offer. As the driver I was thankful that I could have a mocktail.

Very good quality pub food at restaurant prices. Definitely worth a visit. Hidden rural location, attentive staff. Booking system worked really well. January visit, and it was still quite busy so imagine it's a popular local haunt.

Welcoming and very helpful staff. Service for my party of six adults and a toddler was excellent and although we would have welcomed a slightly larger choice of dishes everyone was very satisfied with both the starters and the main courses of roast beef or salmon.

As a quite lunch to celebrate a Birthday it was somewhat spoiled by the noise from the nearby tables of about 20 adults each pair having at least 1 child from months old to about 4 years old. Food was spot on usual though.

As ever, The Chequers provided a warm greeting, excellent service and outstanding food. The open fire in the bar area offered welcome heat on arrival, as did the hot, mulled wine. The menu is varied providing a nice balance of traditional and locally sourced dishes with those demonstrating the chef's flair for taste and design. And, with plenty of waiting staff, service is efficient and personal.

Lovely atmosphere.friendly and efficient staff. Food was excellent .unfortunately the accomodation let it down. The bed was uncomfortable the pillows really lumpy. The bathroom was so small the door banged into the shower door. Would eat there again but would not stay over. The breakfast was very good.

Food was mediocre and service was poor. Waited 40 mins between starter and main. Reviews seemed good so thought it was worth a visit, but sadly disappointed. For the price (expensive) I was expecting a decent Sunday roast and the service to be a lot better than it was. We will not be visiting again

We chose The Chequers as a result of an Internet search and because it was advertised as a gastro Pub. The food was good but the service was mediocre. We did not really feel welcome. When I asked for bread with my meal the waiter seemed affronted. Although our food was well presented and delicious we were sorry to hear that some fellow B&Bers were not at all impressed with their meals.

Warm welcome on arrival, which is so very important as a solo traveller.. I booked online an hour before dinning & the table was already set for me in the bar area, right by the log burning open fire - perfect. The staff were attentive, efficient & kind. The food was amazing, cooked exactly as requested & the tweaks to the menu offered were arranged, tasted great. Thank you! :-)

I’ve visited the Chequers before, but had n mixed experiences. Latest visit was very good, lovely open fire in the bar, food was well cooked and presented, service very attentive. It was very quiet for a Thursday night which was a shame
