The Chequers Pub & Kitchen in Central Bedfordshire

Afternoon lunch. Very nice. Lasagne for my friend and red pepper and tomato soup for me.

It's a shame but have to leave a less than satisfactory review. Seated in an empty restaurant and then waited 45 minutes for starters?? Nachos and prawn cocktail- failed to see how it took so long! Had to ask where it was and then appeared straightaway... can't help but feel it was sitting out waiting as nachos were cold. Burgers came soon after and while they were nice the chips were mediocre. Reasonably priced and the staff were nice but will not be returning

Great pub. Lovely staff and great food. Food and drink very reasonably priced too. We'll definitely be back!

Just been for Sunday lunch and was really pleased with service and food .after trying several times to book at dt times and could not get an answer we were happy with it all will definitely be back thankyou

Have eaten here twice in as many weeks. First was a cocktail and tapas night and last night we had fish and chips. Both evenings the food was very tasty and well cooked. In fact the best fish and chips we have had in a very long time. The staff are really friendly and the pub has a decent selection of drinks. Nice atmosphere and lovely outdoor space too. Top pub in the village.

What a hidden gem this is. If you are looking for a calm, quiet and friendly Pub... then this is the place!Tasty food and a lovely setting, this pub will now be my new local after searching for 3 years in the village.The staff are attentive, caring and passionate.After a few tough years for ALL hospitality, this place is rising like a phoenix from the ashes.Great for couples, families, lone rangers, children's and even dogs.Ive popped in here a few times after and during work and our whole family have fell in love with this pub and its outside spaces and it's rural location.Give this place a chance and you will not be disappointed.:)

What a fabulous place this is. Tasty food, lovely desserts, and caring and attentive staff. I had a nice chat with another customer too - such a nice friendly place. And I adored my personal hand written dessert menu too - I can recommend the apple pie!

Sorry, but i have to leave a negative review. We had a table booked for 8 people for 3pm, all arrived on time. It took an hour and a half for the first meal to arrive, the meat was dried out and the vegetables were cold. They produced 5 inedible meals then advised they had run out of potatoes and parsnips but would cook more, in the meantime they had plated the food that was available and left it on the counter, also they did not have enough beef to fulfill the orders. So 2 people on 1 table and 1 person on another table were not served. The 5 who were served could not eat the food anyway. There was no management or anyone in charge. It was total chaos and embarrassing. The staff were very apologetic but totally inexperienced. The 8 of us left unfed and disappointed.

If you fancy a nice pint of real ale then head to the Chequers and be served by a friendly member of staff. You can enjoy it in the bar that retains the traditional English pub atmosphere or sit outside in the front or back garden areas.

Probably the best carvery I have had for a very, very long time. Absolutely perfect roast potatoes and a choice of beef, gammon or turkey. Finished off with a delicious sticky toffee pudding. Will definitely be back again!
