Chequers Inn in Hinckley and Bosworth

Went for are anniversary meal tonight 1 of the best meals I have had in a long time staff great food great keep up the hard work and producing the good food and service will before Christmas.

There is only one word to say about this place…. AMAZING! Visited for Sunday lunch and the food was divine. Service received was worthy of five star restaurants. Please keep up the good work and I look forward to dining with you again.

Sunday lunch tasless beef'overcooked fish pie'had to use torch on phone to read menu as it was so dark in the room.

Fantastic food and great choice of drinks. Wonderful friendly service.

Nice pub. Good selection of beers etc

Lovely little pub. Gorgeous outside space. Chilled place for evening drinks

Great staff and delicious food!!

Came here for Lunch on a Wednesday afternoon. The Steak Pie was delicious and vegetables cooked to perfection. Dessert was Biscoff Cheesecake which was beautiful Great service from the staff and a fantastic atmosphere. Worth every penny. Can't wait to visit again!

I've said this before, but the food here was excellent and all homemade,all 4 of us had different dishes and not a complain in sight, I tried (for the first time by the way) the fish chowder. My god, I'm definitely going back soon. The staff were great. If you like apple crumble your in for a treat. Update been again and had the calamari , again great like the first time,well worth a visit.

Super tasty, super hot lunchtime meal at Chequers with desserts to die for. We had different variations of chicken & prawns and a divine Treacle Tart with Baileys Custard, extremely decadent. Will definitely be back. Soon!

Not the most generous portions at £17.95 for a Sunday roast but tasted OK.

Local favourite. Highly recommend.

We called in for a sandwich lunch and were very impressed. We both had a baguette with scrumptious skinny fries and a fresh salad. I had chicken, Brie and cranberry, which was delicious. My husband had a sausage, bacon and onion relish baguette that was absolutely brimming with filling. The gardens are well set out with a mix of covered and open tables with room for children to run about. The pub is also very dog-friendly and provides treats, poo bags, etc. Service was prompt, efficient and friendly. Well done, The Chequers.

Lovely pub, great to sit in the garden, with hubby and dog on a warm summers evening.

Great atmosphere, beautiful outdoors seating and very friendly staff

1st time visit, plenty of seating. As it was a nice day sat in the beer garden, lots of covered seating -cosy. Staff friendly and efficient. Food and drinks choice good and excellent value. Will be back, highly recommended.

Friendly pub with good garden and great food

The worst food I've tasted in years! I fed it to the dog it was so bad!!!!

Friendly bar staff and really like the outdoor seating area. The food was overall good, however my only feedback was that the cooking staff did seem to loiter around the fire exit vaping every few minutes which is a little off putting.

Having just eaten here and the food as always was excellent. We were booked into the bar area which is normally as good as the restaurant area. Two older couples were in the bar area drinking and the raised voices verging on shouting along with the language was shocking! The barman new these people and chose to say nothing. We left the establishment as quick as possible....

Ate here for the first time with my dad, after many years of driving by. Excellent beer,freshly done fish and chips and an excellent sandwich on bloomer bread.

Great beer garden .Family friendly

Been here several time. Staff and service & food always amazing. Thank you

We recently went to the Chequers Inn Burbage for the famous pie night and wow ,we weren't disappointed! We both had the Mushroom and Stilton served with lovely fresh veg and creamy mashed potato .The food and service was outstanding ,probably the best pie we have ever eaten ! We will definitely be returning soon! Thank you David and all the team

Mid to high lunch time food price. Eddible food but only pie seemed home made. Pate, shrimp cocktail straight out of a bag. Sliced bread is far below basic standards expected today. Service was somewhat arrogant, seemed like he was doing us a favour serving us. Overall poor food, average to poor service, high cost, misserable atmosphere. Would not recommend spending upwards of £55 with no alcohol for a lunch, much better quality food and far better service and atmosphere for the price within a stones throw from this place. Sad as we wanted ot to be nice but unfortunately, a big no.

Absolutely fantastic meal, I had the burger extremely happy. and no complaints from the family, highly recommend a visit.

Always great atmosphere, quick service and fresh food….

A really poor experience today. Bank holiday Monday and we checked at the bar before ordering drinks if they were serving food. The answer was a grumbling yes and we were given menus. Drinks ordered and we went back up 5 minutes later to order food. We were then told no more food orders… and to come back in at least 30 minutes because they’d turned the printer off. This is completely ridiculous. Food order should have been accepted and customer advised of the delay, not to put it on the customer to keep getting up and down to see if they can now cope with demand. We requested a refund on the drinks and left. Very poor customer experience and sad to say this is the second time we have experienced this here and so will not return. If you cannot cope with food demand, don’t serve it at all as it’s completely unreliable and impossible to make plans when one minute you’re serving and the next you are not. We had a lovely meal with table service at the Cross Keys instead where we were made to feel very welcome.

As always the food is lovely but service has gone really downhill went today and a miserable lady took my food order for outside. Brought the food out to my son still no smile and when i asked for some cutlery was told to get it myself from a station in the garden along with any sauces i wanted. You even get cutlery brought to you in The Hansom Cab!!! The food isnt cheap but i am happy to pay the price for good service along with good food unfortunately 1 is lacking.

My friend and I chose the lasagna, best lasagna I’ve ever tasted. Delicious.

Visited the chequers last night with friends to celebrate a birthday and had a lovely evening. Food was excellent and the staff were really lovely and very helpful.

Great local pub. Log burner, good food and beer. Pie night (Wednesday) never disappoints!

Great food, friendly efficient staff

Food nicely presented, although a bit more expensive than I thought it would be

My wife and I have been regular visitors to the Chequers Pub over the past few months and have eaten there on each occasion. Today we had booked for a Family Easter Sunday meal. My wife had the Camembert En Crout and my mother in law and I had the Roast Lamb. Normally my mother in law doesn’t always complete her meal. Today, we all cleared our plates!!! The food was hot and tasty. You could taste all ingredients and there was nothing that any of us could fault. I couldn’t fit a dessert in but my wife and mother in law both had the Apple, cinnamon and raisin crumble. I was told that it was amazing!! Considering the number of times we’ve been to the Chequers we’ve never been disappointed. The service was great and I would highly recommend a visit. The waitresses were all very friendly, welcoming and polite. Our visit today really made our Easter Sunday. Our visit was followed by a mandatory snooze on the sofa when we got home!!

First time ever visit and thoroughly enjoyed it. Group of us variety of ages but such a great menu no one was stuck on what to eat. Piping hot food well cooked and presented. Great service with a smile. Will go back again very soon with no hesitation

Spur of the moment decision for lunch, very nice mea, l great choice, friendly staff, lovely atmosphere, highly recommended. Thank you.

We went a few weeks ago and we was very impressed, but returned on Saturday and the experience wasn’t repeated. The service wasn’t that great slow and felt strained that didn’t really want the custom, the food was a burger and chunky chips and haddock and chunky chips both my partner both said quite a lot of the chips were raw in the middle I left half of mine. Might of just been a bad night and not near as the previous experience we had. Somewhat disappointed

We booked a table for a family for 14 for my husbands 40th. The staff were very accommodating when booking. Yet again the food was amazing like it is every time we visit. Although they were busy all our meals came out together, all hot and very tasty! The staff were great couldn’t do enough for us, I think we now have a new local favourite ☺️

2nd time eating here and a 2nd review. Last time was 4 stars .. this time a definite 5. Lunch time visit. Very friendly staff. Very polite and a warm welcome. Nice and warm. Fire burning. Food menu very varied and it was a struggle to choose. I went for the sea food chowder. The other half went for the lasagne. Both were excellent and definitely home made. Really enjoyed our meal. Thanks again The Chequers and look forward to seeing you again.

My husband and I were in the area and popped in for a drink. Lovely atmosphere with lots people having drinks and food with family/friends.

Great food again, good service will definitely return

Gorgeous menu that I could have chosen several options . We both loved what we had. (Lamb shank and Blade of beef) (crumble &custard and Brownie)

Food lovely not to expensive either lovely service.went again it's really lovely.

Visited this lovely village Inn for the second time last night with my daughter. I had the Black and Blue Burger and daughter had the Scampi and both were delicious. We were too full to have a dessert but there was a good choice. There was a singer in the bar when we finished our meal who was very good and made an enjoyable end to our evening. The service was excellent and all the staff were friendly. Will definitely go again.

Food was amazing,staff really lovely and friendly

This was our second visit to this lovely village Inn. I had the Black and Blue Burger and my daughter had the Scampi and both were delicious. The service was excellent and all staff were very friendly. There was a singer on in the bar after we had finished our meal who was very good and made an enjoyable end to our evening. Will definitely go again.

We stumbled across this little gem while staying at the local hotel who were unable to supply dinner for us There were 4 of us and having got a vtaxi to the pub only to find they were fully booked The staff were amazing and said there might be a table in an hour if somebody didnt turn up . Sure enough we were seated in 40 mins and had the most fantastic service and dinner. The food was lovely and very reasonably priced All in all a great experience we will be back

Visited on a busy Tues lunchtime without a reservation, the restaurant area was fully booked but friendly staff happy to serve us in the cosy bar area. Food was delicious and freshly cooked. Staff were very friendly and attentive. We'll def visit again when next in area and would recommend the Chequers.

My extended family (all 33 of us!!) went to The Chequers for our annual Christmas Eve lunchtime meal. The whole experience was faultless … we pre ordered our meals to help with such a large group and every single meal we ate was delicious. The meals all came out within a very short space of time; the service was excellent - friendly, efficient & very well organised. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend our lovely village pub & restaurant to anyone. A huge thank you to Sue & Dave & indeed their whole team! We look forward to visiting regularly during 2024!

Great roast dinner followed by the Shantyfolk - Loughborough! Had the roast beef with extras (cauliflower cheese and roasties) . Then had the cheesecake ….. Oh My God !! Never been disappointed with the food here and the staff are always accommodating and helpful and go that little bit extra! The Shantyfolk were singing that night … brilliant sea shanties sung! Awesome night at this village pub.

Need a new chef every thing burnt my fish tasted of burn even kid's nuggets burnt, my wife and daughter went again they burnt the food again won't be going again

Excellent pint at reasonable price

Visited for a belated Christmas Meal with my family. For starters I had Southern Fried Chicken Tenders with a mayo dip and thwy were delightful!. For mains I had the Black & Blue Burger with chunky cheesy chips, the burger was well cooked and stacked with toppings such as bacon, salad etc and was gorgeous !. For dessert I had zesty kemon tart with raspberry sorbet and boy was the lemon nice and zesty and paired with the raspberry sorbet made it a real palate cleanser. Superb meal , a great price (£35.00 approx) and the service was prompt and unobstrusive. I would go here again and thoroughly recommend it !

Visited today for lunch to try the 2 for £25 deal. As a group of 3, we asked if we could have the 3rd meal for £12.50 to take further benefit of the deal. Well, if you don’t ask, you don’t get. We didn’t get. Food arrived, looked fine. 2 of us had ordered smoked fish and king prawn chowder. The prawns hurt my eyes, looking for them. My fellow diner said he also couldn’t find a prawn. The third meal was fine. The staff, after checking with the chef, assured us the meals contained king prawns. Hmmm. In fairness, we were offered a reduction off the bill, which was free drinks. After many meals here over many years, this was the only disappointment. If you are going to do a deal, you obviously don’t drop the quantity or quality of the product. Tip, order from the main menu.

Food is always delicious and well presented, staff are always friendly and accommodating, service is always so fast, and the atmosphere is always great. 10/10

Very nice place to eat. We went for a girly lunch & really enjoyed it

Two fabulous meals at lunchtime here in November. We've only just discovered Chequers in Burbage and what a find. Roaring fires, lovely staff and the most amazing, brilliantly home cooked food.

Christmas lunch at the chequers. Managed to get a table last minute and we were not disappointed. The staff were absolutely spot-on and so efficient with the service. The food was great. The atmosphere was lovely. Going out for Christmas lunch is all about the buzz and the atmosphere And it definitely had that. It was clear that the team were working tirelessly to make it a good day for everyone. Absolutely five stars and no complaints from us. It was nice to be surrounded by people that were clearly enjoying themselves Thank you for letting the doggies enjoy the day with us.

A wonderful traditional pub situated in a village, with a lovely atmosphere, lots of room and a good menu. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming and the food was great, I would recommend you give it a go.

We had a lovely meal from the Christmas menu. Hake, it was delicious. The service was superb. A really good night out.

I Came here for a meal with friends after the Christmas market and it was absolutely delicious! Lovely pub with top quality food. I had the steak which was delicious. Large menu with something for everyone and fantastic wine too! Highly recommended and will definitely be returning!

Went for a meal with friends last night Great menu and service can recommend the lamb shank and the burgers were fantastic Also a real fire

Nice and polite young staff. Credit to the establishment. Place was a bit cold but not uncomfortable. Very clean and tidy. Food was pretty standard. Nothing extraordinary for us to gush and tell everyone. Large enough portions. Nicely cooked and decent quality. An annoying square wooden platter plate with a black soggy napkin under my food. Not the best. Just put it on a plate!

Went here today, Saturday, food was good, service a little slow, but we weren't in a hurry, the sweets were lovely, lots of choice on the menu, not much choice for my husband and I being vegan, it would be nice to have a choice. Dog friendly as well which is great.

Had a delicious Sunday lunch. Generous portions and freshly prepared. Definitely recommend.

Third time we've visited and the food has been excellent on all occasions......compliments to the Chef and kitchen staff. Friendly little pub with outside space. Staff friendly and welcoming. Definitely worth a visit. Gets quite busy so worth booking ahead. Do respond to messages via their Facebook page to! Helen and Dave

We had a delicious meal at The Chequers on Sunday 15th October. For starters we chose crispy squid and it was really tasty. We had the roast beef as main course and this was delicious and the portion sizes were generous. I believe that good food and good service should be rewarded, and we were pleased to tip the waitress. Iwouldn't hesitate to recommend the food, ambience and service.

Absolutely first class Great lamb pie on the pie and piano night last Wednesday excellent food and service thank you

Had a beautiful Lunch with my wife for her birthday. The food was amazing, I had the steak which was cooked perfectly and the better half had the chicken and bacon pie. Was well presented and really tasty!

Best beer garden and outdoor bar.

We eat here on a regular basis and have never been disappointed. Generally pop in for lunch, on a Monday, but we have also brought friends here for dinner when they've been staying with us for a weekend. Everyone has always been delighted with exceptional food, and the serving team is incredible, always a warm welcome, with a friendly professional service. With the new specials now added to the Menu, we'll have to visit more often to work our way through them. Love the fact also that the Pub is super dog friendly. This Pub remains our number one choice when eating out locally. See you again soon!

Dropped into the chequers for some food with a friend and thought we’d try the chequers as we hadn’t eaten there for a while. I must admit, I found the menu much more extensive than expected and was drawn to one of the pies I’d heard so much about….I wasn’t disappointed. I chose the beef brisket with peppercorn sauce paired with creamy mash and a good pile of veggies. The flavour was amazing and it was very well packed with filling. The others had the fish pie and macaroni cheese and they were also very happy with theirs. I wouldn’t normally but I also felt compelled to go for an amazing crumble with custard which really topped the meal off. We’ll definitely be going back to work our way through this great looking menu….and would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for good quality, tasty and well presented food with great service from the staff👌

Yep we were those annoying customers who walk in late at 8.25 when orders stop at 8.30. But we didn’t get surly snarks or soggy chips, in fact far from it. A friendly welcome and then excellent pub food. Really really notably good, every meal of the 4 ordered. Particular mention to the superb Halloumi fries, perfectly crisp sweet potato fries, massive battered fish and medium rare steak & peppercorn sauce. Eating out can sometimes be so disappointing but this meal at the Chequers pub (we’re not local) was a very pleasant & unexpected surprise. Highly recommended!

Awesome food had the vegetarian pie. Great fresh ingredients well cooked. Will be back soon.

Excellent All Round, great food at affordable prices with attentive staff, highly recommended

Phoned and booked in advance due to the fantastic reviews, we were originally looking at a local Steak House but wanted to try The Chequers as offered better value, we were not disappointed. Staff were great and attentive, asked if we would like a tab when ordering our drinks, table was reserved inside but we're happy to accommodate outdoor as weather was so nice. Food was amazing, delicious steak with peppercorn sauce and the Chequers Burger with sweet potato fries was superb. Drinks reasonably priced served by great staff.Give our new favourite placeva try !

Once again i was so eager to eat that I forgot to post the food has just arrived picture! Service was excellent, food was out of this world … beef was plentiful and lean, we had the cauliflower cheese which was way too much to eat but I managed …. Just! Couldn’t manage a pudding … Would definitely recommend… service .. food all fantastic!

Had a drink here a couple of times. So I thought we'd pop in for pie night. We weren't disappointed. Me and my wife had 2 of the 5 pies available on menu. You get a delightful homemade pie with seasonal veg and a variety for potato options. Also a large gravy boat for you both to share. For £12. I had a minted lamb pie with tripple cooked chips. It was 👌 The pies and nicely filled for sure and have a very accurate taste according to menu. Seasonal veg cooked to perfection, and I tried my wife's mash..... bloody lovely. Service was quick and very polite. Food didn't take long at all and was piping hot. Drinks are most reasonably priced amongst the other popular pubs in the area. X1 pint of Guinness and a double pink and lemonade was £10.40 approx ( not bloody bad ) Cheers guys will definitely be returning. Need to work through the other 4 pies on the menu. 🥧 👌

Went today for a Birthday meal at lunchtime with my daughter and Ex wife..(same birthday lol) I always have a lamb shank if it's on a menu.. Trust me this was the best I have ever had.. the whole combination of Veg and mash with the gravy just worked..5⭐... great pub and Staff.. Thank you....

Very relaxing place to enjoy a meal & drink

Only popped in for a couple of drinks, very chilled. Perfect!

Called in for lunch and had a beautiful meal will definitely be returning.

Very slow service. But busy place.. so get more staff.. food fab, if your will to wait for service to take order and then for food. For some reason ice was scarce

Found this pub on a search and read reviews thought I would give it a try. Friendly welcome and great food , very generous portions and good value. I will be travelling this way more in the future so will definitely come back and recommend to colleagues that also will be staying locally.

Very rude staff...no hello and told that we cant eat food that we had in our bag here, which we had no plans to. Also told at 8pm that no kids after 9pm. Very warm welcome. Take your business elsewhere plenty of other pubs in burbage who have pleasant staff.

We recently attended for the pie night. Very good value, a meaty pie and good quality. The vegetables and the lamb pie were tasty but over seasoned with pepper (the chicken pie was also quite garlicky). It would be nice to add the pepper if desired as my wife couldn't eat the veg. We didn't receive a check back to see if everything was ok with our meals or if we wanted more drinks but the staff were friendly. We had a portion of halloumi fries for starter which were very tasty.

I visit here 3 times this week once with family for pie night and twice with different friends.Each time the meals were excellent piping hot and ver tasty.Can particularly recommend the pies .Service was very good waitress very helpful.Thank you.

We have been to this pub a lot of times even during covid to support their business. Nice food and atmosphere. However, todays experience was not up to the usual service. Ordered a 'fishpie' to find it was filled with chicken pieces, carrots, peas and "a" prawn. Another member of our group ordered the "same" fish pie which was as described fish and prawns. On previous visits, we have had this fish pie, which was lovely. However, apon asking the "fish" pie to be returned. The Waitress returned, quote, "it was fish and maybe, the "fish was different hake instead of cod or a little over cooked." I was offered a different meal, however i didn't want to keep my family waiting. the lovely waitress( i felt for her really being a messenger) asked if we wanted the pie to take home. We declined. Ordered puddings and starters. The food is good here however, do not question the chef!!. Asked for the bill and was charged for the 'fish/chicken" pie as quote "we had a meal wasted, that you didn't want and it was the same batch as the other pie orderd!" ( head waitress/manager) So, it would seem you cannot send food back even if you have a complaint. and would i of got billed for another meal,? had i ordered one. 10% deduction £1.70 was deducted from the bill for the "fish" pie. Shame, really..

Absolutely outstanding food friendly staff lovely atmosphere 5/5 👏🏻

Popped in to The Chequers last night with the wife for a few drinks and a meal. Beer on top form. !! We both had the Frank Parker butchers Rump steak. Cooked to perfection and served with all the trimmings. Great sized portions so unfortunately no room for dessert.!! Topped off with great service. Highly recommend.

A nice Sunday Roast, and desert very tasty and well presented, the service we received was excellent nothing to much trouble by our server Ellie, we will rebook again as we fully enjoyed our experience thank you,

Just had a lovely Sunday lunch at Chequers. We opted for 2 courses - main and dessert. the beef, Yorkshire and roast potatoes were spot on. We also had the mash and cauliflower cheese sides. We then had desserts of apple & cinnamon crumble with custard and the biscoff cheesecake, both were delicious. Would definitely recommend this place for Sunday lunch.

Wonderful local pub, great food, great beer, great service and a great beer garden 🙂

Underated nice place for families Excellent outside well laid out facilities Giving a great atmosphere

Enjoyed a meal and drink with family. Sat in the garden in the shade. The food was great and the portions were generous.

This place is amazing. Been here twice now. Had the brisket and peppercorn pie and the chicken and mustard pie and both times they were absolutely perfect. Service is great. Prices are good. Cannot fault the place one bit

Advertising they sell food till 6pm on Facebook tried to order food at 5.20 pm and was told no longer serving. Very disappointed

It's gone downhill, went last year and it was okay - food was edible and the service was okay. I went this week and none the similar. The fish and chips was overcooked and the fish was chewy, we waited an age for food and the cutlery wasn't available - I asked 3 times for cutlery and only got it 10mins after I asked. The deserts took 30 minutes to come out and where subpar. I will not be coming back again.
