We reopened the doors at The Chequers in summer '24 with a simple idea – a pub dedicated to the locals. We spent the summer as a drinker’s pub with food vendors pitching up out the front, the occasional DJ on the decks in the sunshine, and we hosted our own craft beer festival. Our community has supported us along the way making it possible for us to make plans to open our kitchen in January 2025. The Chequers is now your local spot for food, friends, and a great pour. Our menu is about the kind of food that brings people together down-to-earth, simple, and tasty. The pie is the hero of our menu, because what's a pub without a proper pie? Expect all your well loved fillings like beef, chicken, and veg, but with a twist. Always expect the unexpected. No reservation? No problem. We will happily find you a spot. Behind the bar, you'll find craft, cask, and cans, local spirits, good wine, and great low and no options. And, we make a pretty mean coffee. We are open all day, every day for everything from a swift pint to afternoon beers and board games. There is always a spot waiting for you at the bar. We have 11 bedrooms some above the pub and some in the cottage next door.We've made sure each room has everything you need for a good night's sleep. So, all you need to do is make yourself at home. Then when you’re ready pop down for a pint, pie or game of pool. We’re serving up simple pleasures that make a pub feel like home.
