"I haven't eaten in The Chequers since my student days, but hearing that there was a new family friendly team in the kitchen and the promise of two courses for under a tenner the family headed off for Sunday Lunch. It's a sign of a wise kitchen when the menu options are limited it means that they are focused on doing a few things well rather than churning out mass meals just to make money. Sunday options are limited to Roasts and our choices were Beef Pork or Chicken (although one got the sense from the very friendly kitchen staff) that had you wanted a bit of everything that would have been no bother. Food came quickly but was clearly fresh and unmicrowaved. Generous portions perfect Roast Potatoes and a good selection of vegetables. Clearly a success as very early on our 20 month old was demanding more carrots and our fussy 6 year old had demolished her potatoes and her swede and carrot mash something that may have been more of battle at home. Plates cleared and grumbles of being too full for pudding were soon forgotten when the banana split arrived, a glorious throwback dessert clearly created with love and a generous spoon. We all left full and smiling and that is all you can ask of a Sunday lunch. We will be back and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys good old fashioned home cooked food."

This pub has a good food for excellent value. Last time I had a mixed grill which was really good and filling. I will defiantly come back whenever I'm going to be in Thatcham!

Travelled from Cornwall to have lunch with an old friend. Pleasant pub, bit quiet on a Monday lunchtime. A pint and food was in order for 3 ,however the food ,though quite delicious,was a long time being served(35 mins)

Last we went here they had a good chef who did lively veggie food this time however the only thing on offer was a horrible veggie burger. The cheap type full of carrots. Price was ok but they really need more than one vegetarian hot option. Also odd that they now only do food between the hours of 12pm-3pm.

We came here for lunch a few weeks ago. I brought my chihuahua with me which wasn't a problem as he was very welcome. I had the vegetarian lasagne and chips and my husband had the fish and chip.The portions were huge, the food was freshly cooked and piping hot. Never really thought about having lunch here but would definitely go again.

I came here today with my wife, sister and two little baby's. It was easy to park, as they have a few spaces at the rear. There was plenty of tables and just enough room for two buggies.The food was nice and arrived quickly. I wasn't expecting such a lovely meal, I had the burger which was cooked to perfection.There was no card machine there so remember to bring cash, unsure if this is a recent issue of not.The landlord was very nice and I would happily come here again.
