"We headed to The Chequers, a charming pub adorned in matching green hues, our anticipation for a delightful Bank Holiday lunch was high. However, regrettably, our experience fell far short of expectations. Upon arrival, we eagerly ordered the Italian antipasto as our starter, only to be met with disappointment. The selection appeared aged, lacking vibrancy, and unfortunately tasted stale and inedible. Our main course continued the trend of disappointment. The potatoes seemed to have been cooked days prior, lacking the freshness and flavor one would expect. To add insult to injury, the lamb dish appeared to have been hastily reheated in a microwave, resulting in an unappealing texture and taste. Frustrated by the lackluster quality of the food, we made the decision to send everything back—a disappointing outcome for what should have been a pleasurable dining experience at such a beautiful establishment. In conclusion, while The Chequers may boast a picturesque setting and inviting ambiance, the lack of attention to fresh, quality ingredients and reliance on reheated fare from days prior is a disheartening oversight. It is our hope that the management takes heed of such feedback and endeavors to restore the pub to its former reputation of serving freshly prepared, delicious meals."

"My wife and I looked for a local Mexican dinner for a Saturday night, and we found this lovely place. Even though we hadn't reserved in advance and the restaurant was fully booked, they were so kind to accept us. We ordered Fajitas, nachos and prawns in garlic sauce. The food was excellent, fresh and tasty. I tried a lot of nachos in different places, but this one was the best so far. The staff and the owner was friendly as well. Unfortunately, my wife forgot her bag at the restaurant when we left, with all the cards driving license, and she didn't even realise it afterwards. In the night, we had the door knocked and were surprised to see the owner at the door with the bag! He was so kind to bring it to our place! Thank you so much for everything, we will be back again!"

"Our meal took an hour to arrive. I ordered a curry and my husband a mixed grill costing £25. When I asked the reason for the delay I was met with an aggressive attitude from the barmaid saying that everything is freshly prepared hence the delay and no sign of an apology. I did wonder how it took 1 hour to cook a mixed grill which was over-cooked and dry and a Chicken Tikka Masala which was a weird mix of fruit and again dry chicken. I would have sent it back but was ravenous and didn’t want to face the wrath of the barmaid. If we didn’t go to the quiz every month I wouldn’t be going back to the Fox unfortunately as it is a lovely old pub."

"we were just over after we saw a local high-time location and I must say that everything about this pub was fantastic. the food was 10/10, the staff was friendly and attentive and the garden and inside were beautiful. the menu also had many great, different options. even if we don't live very locally, it will be here again: (below are tanned and pesto-frries, pork-buckles and crispy chicken wings."
