A light airy space that somehow manages to create a cosy ambience – I reckon The Chequers has got it spot-on. Food-wise it’s the same story, and this place also has a welcoming local feel.

The food is classic and portions substantial. While the husband-and-wife team behind the helm runs things completely seamlessly.

Vintage knick-knacks, craft beers and a focus on the Josper grill help to make this place stand out.
