The Chequers Inn - Cherwell

The atmosphere at this restaurant is lovely and the service is very friendly. The food was good and almost made this a four-star review, however, there were no vegetarian or vegan options on the main or kids menu. There was a vegetarian option on the lunch baguette menu and the kitchen did offer a vegan burger or nut roast, but it is recommended to call ahead if you have vegetarians or vegans in your group, especially children as the kids menu only had burger nuggets and chips with no pasta option. Unfortunately, this lack of vegetarian and vegan options may prevent us from returning, but if that does not bother you, the Chequers is definitely worth a visit.

I enjoyed two delicious burgers and received excellent service from our waiter, Sam! He was attentive, friendly, and welcoming. Sam even provided us with helpful traffic advice. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone!

This pub is delightful with nice decor and friendly staff. The food was delicious and I appreciated the little extras like the jug of curry sauce with fish and chips, and gravy with the sausage sandwich. It has been a while since my last visit, but I will definitely be returning soon.

This is a lovely old pub and the service was fine but the food was not so good . I had the chicken and mushroom pie which was a bit dry and my wife had the lentil shepherds pie which was completely tasteless .

Stopped here for lunch halfway between Bath and Bedford on an October Friday. Excellent autumn vegetable soup, thick, really tasty, hot and nicely garnished. Too filling to follow with a main course but did manage a generous apricot crumble with lashings of hot custard. Very friendly staff, easy to find and plenty of parking. We will return!!
