I loved it great food and service though it was predominantly fish, very limited vegetarian mains if you're vegetarian. fabulous sweets.definately worth a visit

Very nice pub with very good food. It is pricey, but at least the portion sizes are generous. Excellent fish dishes!

Charming restaurant, certainly not a pub!! Very poor attitude by the eastern European staff, made to feel very unwelcome, sorry, We drop in!! certainly won't be visiting again.....

The front door was open so one of my walking party entered to enquire if they were serving drinks, coffee mainly. It was about 1030 so perhaps a bit early to open. But no drinks available. Once my friend was outside the door was locked. Hopefully service is better during opening hours.

Quite possibly the rudest people Iv ever met, booked a table for my mum and daughter here today for Mother’s Day, had popped in the week before to look at the menu. Arrived today very rude greeting if you can even call it a greet, menu was totally different, nothing any of us would eat and definitely not for my 11 year old daughter and none of us our fussy eaters and virtually eat anything.Infact this is the only review Iv ever written in my life because I am so upset and disgusted with the service we received today.We had one drink and left because I refused to give my money to such rude arrogant people that have ruined our Mother’s Day leaving us with no lunch.A smile and simple hello goes a long way!

Fabulous menu and the food was the best meal of this year!! Fish all cooked to perfection....Excellent staff too.

After After 5 mile walk and extremely wet we popped into the restaurant to ask if you could offer take away coffee. Anyone would think I stepped in something nasty, the disdain on the waiters face as he looked down his nose was quite frankly un called for and rude. Shame on you.

The pub is very snug, but sad to say that the staff are very selective of whom to be friendly towards. Unbeknown to us, we obviously did not fit the criteria. We just visited to stop off for a quick drink before embarking on our journey back home to Canterbury, as my husband managed this pub years back (2003) but this proved to be a massive mistake, we were short of being thrown out!The young lady who showed us in said the bar was full, and offered us a table. We sat and she treated us like peasants who were begging for food. She took our drink order and we didn't see her for the next 15 minutes. Her colleague came to ask if we were ready to order, hubby mentions we just wanted to pop in for a drunk but was told the bar was fully booked, and he just smirks! Very rude. My son asks for the bill, he smirks again and says we need to pay at the bar 🙄 The one that was fully booked...We make our way to the bar, finally a friendly face. The barman says there are plenty of seats to please make ourselves comfortable. That is all we actually needed.. a welcoming smile but by this point we are all (including my 2 teenage boys) feeling pretty awful about ourselves and ready to head home. A very very bad experience to say the least, unfortunately i felt it was racially motivated as we are a mixed race family. My husband was extremely disappointed as he had so many fond memories working at this Inn, so always looked back with sweetness, but sadly the friendly, inviting, welcoming atmosphere no longer exists to people like us 😢 He was heartbroken, I was angry and my boys were left feeling uncomfortable and self conscious. Horrible way for anyone to be treated.

The Chequers is one of our local pubs and generally the food is good but after taking a friend there for lunch a couple of days ago it will be a while before I return.We ordered the sizzling prawns which were completely tasteless - anaemic looking over cooked prawns swimming in garlic butter. In my opinion they should be served shell on with a chopped parsley garnish.The waiter asked how they were but when I offered my opinion he couldn’t have been less interested. My main course of mussels was nice enough but my friend’s scallops were covered in cheese sauce which overwhelmed the delicate taste of the scallops.All very disappointing (and expensive) and made worse by the fact that they are clearly not interested in any sort of constructive criticism. If they had even taken the time to acknowledge our opinion I would not feel it necessary to post this review.We have a great choice of pubs in the area and The Chequers would do well to remember this.

Been cycling past this pub for over 10 years thought we should finally check it out. What a little gem slightly off the beaten track. Sat out the back in their lovely garden, stunning views. Very good COVID -19 practice in place, friendly staff, although a temporary menu something for everyone from price to choice. The beer battered fish and chips was amazing as was the chicken schnitzel. There for Saturday lunch, very busy which is always a good sign. Can't wait to return.
