We enjoyed Sunday lunch in the upstairs restaurant which is beautifully furnished and plenty of space between tables. We were well looked after by the staff including George who is always delightful. The meal was first class, really nicely presented and great quality. Excellent all round. Would highly recommend.

Not much atmosphere, would have preferred to be downstairs. Waiter was pleasant. Sunday dinner only ok, Yorkshire pudding like cardboard and cold. Only 3 desserts to choose from. All in all wont rush to come again.

The food was fabulous and a very good portion for the price. Service was efficient and friendly, and a carafe of chilled water brought straight away (without having to be requested) was lovely....you just felt that 'everything was going to be good if this is how it starts'. It may be we chose to eat a little too early for Sunday Lunch as the restaurant was almost empty when we arrived. More customers arrived later and the atmosphere improved. The only recommendation I would make for the owners is to ensure condensation if removed from the inside of the windows prior to service.

First time we visited the Chequers - and loved it. Went for Sunday lunch. Fab food - exceptional value for money. Big portions, great quality ingredients, and very well cooked. The pub has been beautifully restored, with quality fixtures and fittings. Couldn't fault it. Even the cappuccinos at the end of the meal were excellent - and came with a beautiful design on top. Thank you!

How a pub should be, the Sunday lunch is always amazing and great value for money and the landlord is always very welcoming and courteous. Dog friendly and always a good crowd in there, definitely worth a trip
