The Chequers At Loose

Fabulous evening with friends great food from the newly updated menu, good selection of drinks at reasonable prices, great service from the lovely bar staff and a lovely atmosphere

My wife and I, both in our 70s, visited the restaurant. We had two halves of draft lager and two sandwiches, which cost £27.50. The bread was not fresh and the fillings were very sparse. I would not recommend this place as the food was of very poor quality.

The worst roast I have ever had , I ate 5 of my plate roast potatoes had been microwaved I couldn’t even cut them , beef so chewy I spat it out £4 for each veg coliflower cheese not a scrap of cheese just packet mix sauce instant gravy nearly made me eat a little more View menu

We went to the chequers to see some friends we haven’t seen in ages. We were in the garden and had some drinks. And we got asked to leave at 9:30 because they were closing. We were talked to with a rude attitude and it ruined our evening. Very disappointing and generally annoying. Wouldn’t recommend!

A little disappointed, we visit regularly here especially in the summer, however our last visit, they’ve changed the menu and increased the prices, whilst the food we had was good, the potato skins and fajitas have been removed which surprised me as they were always popular and very nice! Please bring them back!

We tried the new specials menu last night and shared the belly pork skewers, as it was a large portion for one person. The skewers were accompanied by a delicious cucumber dressing. We both then enjoyed the scallops and prawns wrapped in a fillet of sole on a bed of rosti with a cream sauce. The presentation was outstanding and the dish was delicious. We look forward to trying more items on the specials menu, as it changes every month. The chef's adventurous offerings are commendable. We will definitely be back soon. View menu

I booked a table for three online for myself, my father as it was his 81st birthday, and my wife as she had not been here before. Great choice of real ale including two from the Musket Brewery which is just up the road. Service was great. Unfortunately the kitchen was running low on steak, so I had to go for a second choice which was a burger. No matter though it was delicious. All the food very well presented. Food and drink prices very reasonable for the range and quality. If you have not visited this pub you should make the effort. Summer evenings in the garden after a walk along the stream are fabulous.

We stopped by The Chequers for a drink and light lunch while walking in the area. The service lacked a friendly smile as we ordered drinks and requested a menu. However, upon reviewing the menu, we were unimpressed with the limited selection of typical dishes like burgers and pizzas, as well as the high prices for additional extras at £4.00 per item. As a result, we chose not to eat there. The cost of £20 for three small bowls of fries and two salads, on top of £13-£15 for a burger or pizza, was off-putting. Today, unfortunately, The Chequers lost our business. It is hard to justify charging £4.00 for a small bowl of chips.

We had a nice lunch, food was good. Waitress must have visited our table approx. 6-8 times to check we were okay, did we need more drinks when they already just arrived, asked us three times if our meal was okay! Then whilst friend was paying me and my elderly Mother were waiting at the door and someone came over to us to ask if we’d paid. As we were standing in the doorway, not the best getaway and a little insulted. Staff need to chill on the ‘Is everything okay’ If we need drinks our glasses would be nearly empty and asking if the food is okay, ask once not three times! Presume two more older people are not trying to cut and run and don’t tell me this happens often in Loose View menu
