  “This was our 4th visit in the last 9 months and definitely won’t be our last Yet again great atmosphere, lovely accommodating staff and delicious food. The new autumn menu is very hearty and the beef brisket with cheesy mash and cabbage was to die for. Well done to the chequers team we are looking forward to our next visit soon”

  “My wife & I came here (for the first time) on a Sunday lunchtime for an anniversary meal. It was an almost last minute booking and didn't really want to book on a Sunday because lunches are always busy everywhere. However the Chequers website clearly stated in at least two places that it doesn't open on a Monday, so instead we accepted a late lunch book for Sunday, no problem. Only later did I discover on another web page that in fact they *were* open on the bank holiday Monday, so we missed their Greek special. A lesson for the Chequers team there, I think. Other than the above, everything else was excellent. A team of young people out front did an excellent waiting service. Their timing was good, they were welcoming, articulate and polite. We had a couple of pints of fine Abbot ale and a soda water. We both had a roast meal, a beef and a turkey. Serving size was reasonable, roast potatoes were fine and veg was good quality. Both meats were succulent, tasty and generously portioned. There was not a single piece of fat anywhere in the meat, 100% juicy tasty meat. We agreed this was the best Sunday roast we'd had in a long time... delicious! We followed it up with some good quality ice cream. Overall, we had a very good experience here, especially considering we arrived at the tail end of a busy Sunday lunchtime. We absolutely*loved* our meals (our compliments to the chef) and will definitely be coming back. Based on our first experience here we highly recommend. Thank you :0)”

  “Tally was amazing, so friendly and welcoming. Will definitely come again. The food was amazing, belly pork and goats cheese for starter, chicken and blue cheese crunch, brisket and mash for main. Awaiting the pudding as recommended by Tally, update you shortly”

  “Lovely pub with great beer garden, loved the idea of the seating with added curtains made it all seem a lot more private . Service was excellent and the duck spring rolls on the nibbles choice were just amazing just like eating 100% shredded duck and not loads of nasty crispy roll stuff , the beer was nice too ! Highly recommend!”

  “The pub and restaurant food was average. I had the steak which was just okay while my parents’ fish was much better and delicious. The starters were lovely and the landlord was accommodating and the staff friendly. The garden area is great with plenty of seating and space and there’s even a good undercover outdoor area.”

  “Went here for food for the first time tonight after a previous drinks visit, as the place looked really nice and the decor was lovely. Again, atmosphere was lovely, really nicely done up. The staff were professional, polite and friendly, also very accommodating in a way. We were going to sit outside but it was just hot so opted for indoors instead. The garden area is huge! But yet they don’t allow vaping or smoking, which strikes me as odd. Sitting inside I popped out the side door and again was told off for vaping there when it was no where near any food, kids etc…I mean it water right ? Anyway. Now the beer was warm not really sure what happened, but the most important thing the food! Questionable, I had the burger and it came out with a cold, non toasted, non sauced bun, nothing worse if you ask me and predictable the thing to fell to bits, the burger itself appeared homemade and again just fell to bits, you couldn’t eat it, the bacon appeared pre-cooked as it was tough like old carpet and tasted so salty, very disappointed! The mac and cheese was so bland, no salt at all. I told the waitress when she came to collect to the plates and all they did was tell the chef, was expecting a bit more to be honest. Bill came to £71 so was really annoyed. Safe to say based on that I won’t be back.”

  “Went here on a Wednesday and it was surprisingly busy. The menu was varied and offered lots of alternatives including vegetarian. I had Duck spring rolls for starter pork tenderloin in a cream and whiskey sauce for.main and sticky toffee pudding for desert. The food was tasty very well prepared and unusally for alot.of pubs very hot. There was a choice of 2 real ales and the service was just right. Will definitely visit again.”

  “First visit here on a recommendation and it was for a special birthday on a Sunday Lunch. The positive- dog friendly, very good service, nice atmosphere, homely decor. Negatives- the food. Creamy mushroom starter was tiny and swimming in thin cream with an almost milk consistency. Jerk Halloumi special was also tiny and whilst it tasted nice needed something with it like a salad garnish. Both served with the tiniest bread rolls we’ve ever seen. Felt like we were in gullivers travels. The beef roast dinner was OK. Beef was nice, only two roast potatoes though and the bowl of veg for two was again very small. The mushroom bourguignon was appalling. I likened it to sliced mushrooms in beef gravy granules. No herbs or real flavour apart from the gravy. Partner left this and we did tell the waitress it was a terrible dish and explained but they still charged us for it and we couldn’t be bothered to argue. As the only single vegetarian dish on the Sunday lunch menu they need to do better if they want vegetarian diners to frequent. We won’t be back based on this food experience which is a shame as we eat out a lot and have just moved to the area so might have made this a regular.”

  “Wonderful. Lovely food and lots of it. We got a starter of cheesy chips and gravy 😋 i had the hancock, chips, and peas, and my partner got the beef lasagna. Really good. And there's an owl sanctuary down the road”
