Chequers Inn in Leeds

The food was average/ fine, but the attitude, of what I assume was the manger, was truly appalling. A previous review used the words passive aggressive, which are fitting. Grunted at on the way in, indifferent throughout service and ignored on exit. Terrible

Called one evening for tea, had fish and chips, and fillet steak. Both were cooked perfectly. Service was very good, and will return.

Having often frequented this Public House throughout my adult life, it has always had the great ambience and friendly approach of the quintessential English village pub. Hence it is with disappointment that for the first time I have felt negative pubs upon my visit. The most recent Bar Manager (presumed) his a blocker at point of entry, sitting on guard like a sentry with his table book and projecting a somewhat condescending manner. You get the feeling if you don't want to eat or not booked you are not welcome, over the years this disappoint was never previously met. Whilst the food is still expensive it is no longer supported by a feeling of 'worth the money'. It should be noted that the pub as always cannot be beaten on character and that the long term bar staff cannot be faulted - friendly and helpful providing 10/10 service.

TERRIBLE MANAGER WILL NEVER RETURN We were a family of 16 and 3 little ones who preordered our food days prior to our family christmas meal out The food was OK the beef was chewy my brother had to send it back , think they had just blitzed it in the microwave as the gravy on the plate was just dried up on its return My nieces husband had one piece of belly pork which again was preordered but came after we had finished our meal so the rest of his food was cold and he left it- the waitress told us it was missed on the chefs list that morning. We could have forgiven all this as we were a large party and it was busy. HOWEVER the Manager of the pub was so RUDE and a lot to be desired he was very passive aggressive in his demeanor. On entrance to the pub he was very blunt towards us which made us all feel immediately uncomfortable, this continued throughout our entire meal, he did not apologise for the lateness of the food and that it was cold, we asked if we could get that particular meal taken off the bill, in which he conveyed that half of our party were late (10 minutes), what has this got to do with forgetting a meal and unedible beef. He was continuly barking orders at the staff all afternoon which again made our time as a family, which is very special to us, spoil our afternoon. We as a family have visited this hostelry many times, but sadly WE WILL NEVER BE RETURNING AGAIN!

Afortunadamente encontramos esta pequeña joya al alojarse cerca en pontefract. Muy acogedor, acogedor pub cálido con personal atento y comida preciosa. Tuvimos el wellington de carne y el pastel de carne y cerveza cocinados lentamente seguido de pudín de toffee pegajoso y tarta de queso y fue la mejor comida que hemos tenido en mucho tiempo. Si no fuera 2 horas en coche de casa sin duda volvería a probar el resto del menú, excelente!

Beautiful old and historical pub..sob relaxing... gorgeous food and lovely service! We often frequent the pub Asda family and a couple. Thankyou!

I have to be honest here I thought Spanish night, ok it will be alright bit of cheese and Spanish ham, I’m ok with that. However I couldn’t have been so far off the mark! What I’ve just had was a Michelin start tasting menu. From the amazing olive oil infused vermouth, the croquettes best I’ve ever had by a long way. The most amazing tomato on bruschetta, so simple yet only an amazing chef could make it taste like that. I could go on but suffice to say I was blown away, my view, this was a £100+ tasting experience. Please please continue these themed events they are truly special. Thank you!

My first pint of Osset brewery White Rat 🍺was so enjoyable it just disappeared Houdini style so needed an another to accompany my amazing Ham and Cheese focaccia sandwich 🥪 and large cous cous Greek 🇬🇷 salad. Sat outside in the large beer garden. Fabulous pub!!!

Really friendly pub with great food. Suffered major envy of other diner’s choices but all delicious. Staff really welcoming and reasonable prices.

Overpriced, undercooked Sunday lunch . And to add, charged a very dry plate an extra £1.50 for a small jug of gravy. Very poor experience. Will not return .

Came along to the Chequers again after having a lovely family lunch previously. Great service, outstanding food and great selection of drinks. The staff are very accommodating & friendly. Lovely surroundings too if you’re fortunate with the weather to sit outside. Will be returning.

Not good. Some food raw, scotch egg wasn't cooked. Some overcooked , beef was like leather Bad service. Overpriced drinks. Wouldn't go back.

We called in for lunch as a half way point on a walk. I have been to the chequers many times for lunch. I’m not sure if it’s changed hands but I doubt I will be returning. We ordered sandwich’s on brown bread at £9.50. I was expecting some lovely artisan bread with a generous side salad. It looked more liked Asda saver brown bread with a small garnish. The bread had obviously been left out & was dry to the touch. As the waitress returned with my friend’s salad we commented on this on which she touched both sandwich’s to check for herself. Surprised at her actions she then took them away & they were replaced with a reluctant apology. The staff were surly to the customer interactions we observed. An elderly lady struggled with the steps so they could sit under the gazebo which was the only shade on a very hot day. They wouldn’t open her a tab as they were sitting in the outside area even when the lady offered her card to be kept at the bar. This rule I presume is in place to avoid dine & dash but there has to be exception. The waitress reluctantly brought them coffee but was far from friendly. Some of the food we saw coming out of the kitchen looked nice but the service and attitude of the staff won’t make me a returning customer. In comparison I’ve just been to the Twisted tree near Castleford. Good food, good service, good price.

Another splendid meal in superb surroundings. The lovely Amanda, with a lovely hair style, looked after us like royalty, nothing was too much trouble. The olives as a starter were so good with amazing dressing. The chicken supreme on mash was so good, wild mushroom garnish very good accompliment for the dish, would have again. Janet had beef pie, very tasty and the gravy moreish. Brother in law had lamb shoulder and nothing left on plate it was so good. To finish we had the most amazing cheese board. The Timothy Taylor landlord was well kept and spot on, all in all a very enjoyable evening with superb hosts and staff.

Lovely food but was disappointed that the food was being served to the table before we had chance to get a drink at the bar. There were 10 people in our party and our whole dining experience was over in 50 minutes. I was asked on arrival 'is that a cake because we charge £20 for bringing your own cake, we do sell puddings you know'. This was not mentioned in previous correspondence when paying the deposit and pre ordering food. We were also charged for extra gravy which is not usual when having Sunday lunch. As I said the food was lovely but the experience was not. Shame.

Honestly, some of the best food I’ve eaten in ages. Five friends ate in here and we were all impressed. British home cooked food. Steak and stout pie was delicious. Generous helpings (veg side I’d share between two). Desserts too were huge and so good. Not the cheapest, but worth paying the difference for the quality. I would seriously recommend this pub for food.

We visit regularly for drinks or a quick lunch but got the chance to have a rare evening out and chose to visit the Chequers so we could sample the main menu! Food was fantastic and we were greated warmly by Felix and his team. Remains one of our favourite places in the area to go. So much character, fab staff and really good food.

Called in for lunch after taking the pups out for a walk. Seated outside which was fine, cold but sunny day. For food we had sausage sandwich, prawn salad and bacon and brie sandwich, all outstanding and service spot on. Very much a dog friendly pub so if you are walking your dogs well worth a visit.

If you want a warm friendly welcome, good beer and food in a traditional old pub this is the spot for you.

Amanda, Felix and their team always give us a warm welcome and nothing is too much trouble. We eat & drink here regularly as a family & with friends and everything is always wonderful. They change their menus every season, have a great selection of drinks and do fabulous themed events. Highly recommend!

This is one of my favourite places to visit with friends. The food is always amazing, freshly cooked, with great attention to detail. The staff are attentive and the pub is cosy, real fires add to the ambiance. I visit this pub frequently and have never yet been disappointed.

This was a random stop, and was it worth it? Oh yes ! A gem of a place with awesome food. 12 hour pork dinner with crackling, faultless! My partner had the steak and stout pie, again faultless wholesome pub food! Definitely going again ! 👍

Absolutely fabulous! We had such a great time again, food delicious, beautifully cooked Place & Pork Belly. Yum yum Prawn cocktails. Highly recommended. Friendly staff. What a magical Sunday near to 🎄 Christmas Thank you… see you in 2024

Visited for Sunday dinner as just moved to the area and looking for a new Sunday lunch spot. Good service and a cosy pub with lots of charm, log burners and a pub cat. I’ve noticed a few comments about the prices, I think they were reasonable for a small country pub in what are tough times. I’ve certainly paid similar at chains that churn out food with no attention or love. Would recommend the winter sangria - very nice! We will hopefully visit again very soon.

Very disappointed booked it over the phone for 6 then get a email a few days later saying your table won't be reserved unless you pay £60 deposit, no mention of a deposit in the phone call. We the had mediocre food sat on stools with no back rest. Soup was ok but the rest was very over priced for very basic food and a very small venue choice. Then when we got the bill the £60 deposit was not taken off. Disappointed with the whole experience to be honest.

We have been and eaten in this pub many times over the last 40 years. It’s had its ups and downs over the years but these things are to be expected but not the extreme rudeness of the man on the door orchestrating customers. If you don’t have a table immediately (this was 6.30 in the evening…) you apologise and suggest the customer has a drink at the bar while one becomes available. Not this man - who just suggested in a curt tone that they were full and we should go away. Very poor customer service and so upsetting for my wife that we won’t be returning. If the owner/manager reads this, you need to do something about this man’s attitude.

NOT family friendly!! We were booked for Sunday lunch tomorrow but I just got a snotty call from the owner questioning why we had not pre-ordered. I explained that I was not told we needed to preorder when I booked and had not received an email as he’d stated. I said it was fine and could he send a children’s menu also to which he replied, ‘We don’t have a children’s menu, we’re not really a venue for children!’ I asked if they could do half portions of Sunday dinner and he reluctantly agreed they possibly could but only if they have beef! He was extremely rude and seemed to be blaming me for their mistake in not asking for a pre-order when booking. Have been here many times before, was a nice place to drop in with the dog in the Summer but we won’t be back! 2 families lost as loyal customers! I suggest you address your customer service!

We just been for our lunch with family and was slightly disappointed. Although the meal was very nice it was very expensive for what you got. We had no veg with our pie and chips. Soon my eyes its not a complete meal. Its a shame because the meal was nice but not worth it so sorry won't be going again .

We have dined here quite a few times over the years but I’m afraid the food is not as good as it used to be. Our food was lukewarm, the Yorkshire puddings soggy, the main course was bland and pretty basic. The inn itself is still charming and in a lovely setting but seemed to be looking tired in places. We all love rustic charm but not frayed carpets and there was a sense of grubbiness in certain areas. We won’t be visiting again.

We came here on bank holiday Mon for a late lunch. It’s a beautiful old traditional pub with a nice menu. We both went for the scallops which we had with the homemade fries which were double fried I think. Absolutely delicious. I had a house red and my partner a rose. She’s been here before, but this was my first visit. Highly recommended and I’m looking forward to coming back.

Went on a warm, fairly busy, Wednesday evening for dinner having been in a few times for a pint of Theakstons. The whole experience was excellent - fast and polite service, great food and reasonable prices. BUT.....the lamb shoulder I chose was the best lamb I have ever eaten, and the meal as a whole (prawn starter) was definitely up in the top 10/20 pub meals I have ever had....and I am knocking on a bit!

My wife and I tried lunch here as it’s not far from our house. It’s set in a very pretty little village. It’s a fine example of an old country pub. The menu had many attractive options and tempted us both to unusually have starter as well as mains as a consequence. My wife went for the duck parfait and I went for the tomato and chorizo soup. The parfait came in a very large portion with a huge piece of toasted bloomer bread and was very tasty. My soup came with plenty of crusty baguette. I can honestly say it’s probably the best soup I’ve eaten anywhere. For main, my wife had a ribeye steak and I had locally made Syke’s sausages with mash, vegetables and rich gravy. My wife said the ribeye was as tender as you’d expect a sirloin to be but much tastier. My sausages were great and the gravy was indeed very rich and meaty. We’ll certainly be going back to work through the menu.

I booked us in for an evening meal for 2 nights as we were in the area for an airshow. I had no idea what it would like. I needn't have worried it was lovely. The pub was fabulous old world and very quaint. The landlady and staff were fantastic and so friendly. The foot was also really good. The BBQ was something else. It was incredible. And I can throughly recommend it if you're in the area. I would book a table on a Friday or Saturday evening as it appears quite popular. The prices are also very reasonable, including the beer. Well done all. Keep up the good work.

Good beer, good food and good staff. Timothy Taylor Landlord was spot on, food was Sausage sandwich with chips, beef burger and chips and a cod dish. All food was splendid and we all thoroughly enjoyed the evening.

Old world pub in small village on outskirts of leeds / wakefield. we took over a small back room for a 40th birthday. as a party of 12 we filled it. food was pre ordered from the menu prior to attending which wasn't a problem. `excellent selection of beers and wines. food and portion size was great. had a really good evening . well recomended i just wish we had a similar village pub!

I’ve been here many times for Sunday lunch and it has always exceeded expectation, however, calling in today for a early tea I’m sorry to say we were extremely disappointed, went for the steak & stout pie and when it came it was mush on a plate, with a small slice of pastry on top (definitely not a pie) a scoop of mash, no veg, you had to pay extra for that, and at £17.95 it was expensive enough. The only taste was salt, I’m glad I had a pint to wash the taste away, all in all sorry to say but I would not have fed it to my dog

What a find! Looking for somewhere midway between Durham and Loughborough for a family meet up and found Ledsham and Chequers Inn. Friendly staff, great service and wonderfully tasty food. Good portions, served quickly. We'll be back.

Visited with family and all meals were scrumptious with really good house wine. Comfortable and relaxing historic pub.

Very poor. Would you pay just under £15.00 for this ciabatta with roasted vegatables? Wilted salad with a splat of coleslaw?

Have visited this pub three times in the last year for food including last week. I am not a fan of the menu changes or the pricing for separate veg etc. I would expect some veg when paying £15 for steak pie. It came only with four roast potatoes. The meat was tender but the pastry was almost non-existent. Wouldn’t mind paying a bit extra for a dish of veg for the table, but £4 for brocolli and the same for peas seems extreme. My friends thought the same. I love the pub and the staff are great but unfortunately we won’t be returning.

Booked a table for four adults, we turned up a little late but were still greeted warmly and politely. Table marked as reserved. A comfortable small pub dining room Menu as shown on Facebook with some specials on the board. We chose our meals and were served quite quickly. Meals were very tasty, we ordered some vegetable extras, chips, peas and carrot/swede mash and all very good. Small sweet menu but we enjoyed what we had. Meal for 4 including 4 mains, 3 sweets three glasses of wine and a soft drink and 3 extra veg £121. Overall a good pub meal with a good atmosphere and surroundings

Meals are presented without sides, pie is £15 peas £4 broccoli £5 carrot mash £5. If you have no signal WiFi is £5. Won’t be going back the white horse down the road is much better value and food is just as good. Obviously taking...

Set out from Castleford as one of our party had been here before. It didn't disappoint. Only stopped for a beer which was very tasty. Quite a selection available but I plumped for Leeds Bitter which I enjoyed

We meet every so-often to put the world to rights, reminisce and enjoy a tasty bite. Thursday 8 September was no exception and four different scrumptious dishes were enjoyed.

i'm astonished at some of the poor recent reviews. We were a party of 6 down from Scotland for the weekend and thought EVERYTHING about the pub was brilliant. The food was great, the character of the place superb and the staff wee lovely. We...

that’s all i can say, it isn’t particularly cheap, but i don’t mind paying for quality, but this hasn’t any quality hadn’t been for years and i doubt i’ll return i’ll say it again £3 for a dish of peas

Food is way too salty! Service was great and the setting is beautiful but the food just tasted of salt. Many of us who attended the birthday party said the same about the food. The chips were also disappointing. Unfortunately we won’t be eating here...

Bar woman spilt a whole drink down me, didn’t care, still charged me and when complained owner didn’t address us at all. Had to come home early, we visited regularly however won’t be coming again. Expected better?

People complaining that this is downtrodden and shabby are missing the point! Its deliberately Olde Worlde and all the more relaxing for that. The ambience is spot on and the Moaning Minnie's who confuse it for shabbiness are probably happier in a plastic palace. This...

Beautiful setting, great atmosphere with friendly service. Food was good (I had the chicken burger) and will definitely return. Plenty of parking as well as seating both inside and outside.

Myself and my husband had Sunday lunch and it was absolutely beautiful. We had 2 dogs and were offered a cosy table in a snug. The waitress was available but not fussy. Perfect! It was a really cosy and relaxed atmosphere. The belly pork was...

Great cozy pub! Very friendly, welcoming atmosphere. Good choice of food - mainly British cusine. Would recommend booking in advance if large group. Would definitely go there again. Thank you for such an amazing meal!

My husband and I take our daughter to the Chequers quite frequently and we are always met with a warm welcome, fantastic service and delicious homemade food. We love the atmosphere and the staff are fantastic - especially with our two year old! The food...

Mid week visit with friends. Was a nice spring day so pretty busy. Warm welcome and generally nice staff. Food was most enjoyable. We are all in the trade so possibly slightly difficult to please . We all left very happy and we wouldn’t hesitate...

We have been on several occasions and the food is always excellent, staff are very friendly, nice homely feel, always very busy which is a good sign.

Gone are the days when you could walk into a pub and enjoy a drink sat by the fire. Now you have to prebook as the whole building is now a restaurant! So disappointing!!

The welcoming, helpful and pleasant staff were matched with a very good Sunday Lunch/Birthday party of 6. The interior furnishings could do with an upgrade, but it was worth the 4 hour drive to celebrate . Great Yorkshire hospitality

Certainly do not cater for vegetarian and gluten free meals. This is what I was offered as a choice: Cheese & red onion chutney sandwich on gluten free bread -Roasted Mediterranean vegetable sandwich on gluten free bread  -Butternut squash and marscapone risotto, toasted seeds, crispy...

We’ve been to the Chequers a number of times but only for drinks and has always been a great experience, good beer and service But after a last minute decision to eat and what a great decision. Service throughout was excellent attentive without being overbearing...

Might not be cheap but the food was fantastic....2 people had steak, 2 had salmon....Everyone loved it. Starters were also fantastic. Quaint pub and nice environment

Dined in the outside area which looked very tired & shabby. The menu stated that my starter contained pancetta. Although I enjoyed the dish it wasn't pancetta it was bacon.

We had 3 courses including the risotto and hake for mains and it was all delicious. Great service, fantastic garden. An excellent stop off whilst out walking around Fairburn Ings and the surrounding countryside.

I've visited many times over the years, both as a couple, with family and in large groups and is one of my favourite pubs - perfect for every occasion. First and foremost the staff are wonderful - and a credit to the pub. Nothing is...

Its always a pleasure to eat here. The service was lovely, and the Hake was outstanding. The sausages on the sausage and mash were overdone though, so I have reduced to 4 stars. That said, everything else was top notch.

Never disappoints! First out of lockdown meal. So glad we chose the Chequers. Cosy surroundings. Fantastic, attentive and friendly staff. And the food ... delicious !!. The steak pie is always scrummy, I chose the Hake on creamed potato with a glorious parsley sauce. Wow!!...

The food and atmosphere are always good here. I had a mixed smoked/preserved fish platter with smoked salmon, marinated anchovies and herrings, followed by a smoked haddock risotto with crispy leek topping and pea shoots. All very well done, the chef knows about food. 3...

Having been to various similar establishments of late it was an easy decision to put the food at the chequers at the bottom of the list. We thought we had saved the best till last, however having visited the Crooked Billet and the White Horse...

Group of five. Poor food Trio of Sausages, Creamed potato, onion gravy & fresh vegetables £13.45 ,Soggy Veg potato half mash half boiled. Service was very slow.

Uno de nuestros lugares favoritos para parar cuando volvemos de nuestros parientes en el sur del país, está justo al lado de la A 1, a pocos minutos del bonito pueblo y de este gran pub / restaurante. a muchos personajes les encanta la pequeña zona del bar, no pudimos entrar en esta visita debido al virus, pero está bien porque la zona de asientos exterior es muy agradable, nuestra camarera era Victoria, ella fue genial, muy servicial, y mi esposo dijo su pinta de Timothy Taylor fue la mejor que jamás ha probado, sin duda recomendaría este lugar para visitar, tan fácil de encontrar y muy superior a esas estaciones de servicio

Super welcome and good Covid 19 rules and separation. Very good squash soup, an excellent burger and chips followed by strawberry cheesecake. Pleasant pub food with good ambience. No Amex.

Este fue el último lugar en el que almorzamos antes del cierre, por lo que decidimos hacer de este el primer lugar para visitar después de que se redujo el cierre y estábamos muy contentos de haberlo hecho.Nos sentimos perfectamente seguros con los nuevos arreglos y tuvimos otro delicioso almuerzo servido por el encantador personal en esta hermosa y antigua posada del pueblo. Definitivamente volveremos pronto.

Four of us enjoyed a wonderful convivial evening enhanced by fine dining at this cosy establishment. The Sauvignon and Merlot whetted the appetites and the starters of soup, chicken liver pate and halloumi salad didn't disappoint Three of the group opted for the roasted cod loin for mains and I chose the venison steak which was sublime ; a choice that I worried about after ordering but my fears were unfounded. . Two of the party were replete after the mains apart from imbibing coffee while the duo who surveyed the desserts on offer enjoyed the cheesecake and chocolate brownie respectively. Exellent food and drink served by cheerful and attentive staff. Well worth a repeat visit.

Having visited this lovely country pub many times I’m sorry to report that the food and staff’s bad attitude to customers has gone down hill. I can only assume the establishment is under new management, which won’t last very long considering this Sunday’s performance!

Having being a customer of this fine establishment for many years now it pains me to say that todays visit was most definitely my last... Following a fantastic main course of roast beef and Yorkshire puddings, my husband and I decided we had just about enough room for dessert, and proceeded to order my absolute favourite, Berry Pavlova.I was therefore a little disappointed to receive, in place of the usual homemade delights, a less than delightful meringue which was quite clearly shop bought.Now I'm not one to return food or complain in anyway, but in respect for the owners, I decided to call a member of staff to a quiet side of the bar to notify them of my issue. I'm going to cut a long story very short but I can only describe their response as aggressive, confrontational and at best petulant.Having an opinion is one thing, being confronted by a teenage Kevin and Perry type duo, defending a plastic pavlova in front of a busy a public bar however is something quite different. Thanks again, but no thanks..... !!

I visited last week with my sister and mother for lunch. We had a lovely time sat beside the fire, with scrummy food and good wine.One suggestion - trade your cats in for a lovely friendly dog. Didn't appreciate them jumping up on the table.

We are newcomers to the area and discovered this wonderful pub purely by chance, so glad we did. We drove past on the Saturday night and agreed we would try it out for Sunday lunch. The car park was full and thought we wouldn’t get a table, however we managed to get seated in a lovely room complete with a beautiful open fire. My partner ordered belly pork and myself the lamb, service was quick and the waitress very polite and friendly, the food was amazing! Big portions with lots of tasty veg, the crackling on the belly pork was delicious and the lamb soft and succulent. I highly recommend this fabulous little pub and can’t wait to go again.

Hace algunos años que visitamos este encantador pub. Últimamente ha tenido una reputación algo "cuadriculada" pero el almuerzo del domingo que tuvimos hoy realmente superó nuestras expectativas. Entendemos que existe un nuevo equipo de administración y esto fue evidente por los servicios deliciosos y eficientes al menú pequeño pero excelente. Recientemente hemos tenido una serie de malas experiencias con el almuerzo del domingo, pero hoy no tuvimos la culpa de encontrar, todo estaba delicioso, muy bien preparado y presentado, una experiencia excelente. Volveremos! !

Visité The Checkers, Ledsham anoche. La comida, el servicio y el ambiente era de primera clase. El menú era pequeño pero perfectamente formado y preparado a pedido. Tuve la ensalada tibia de pollo y tocino (menos el chorizo) y el lomo de bacalao, estaba delicioso. El servicio fue excelente y amable y el precio era muy razonable. Recomiendo totalmente este encantador pub para una cena.

Of the beaten track, Great for a nice drink in the summer, For groups of bike riders, nice local food, Great for lunch in the week and Sunday lunch. Staff always friendly. Nice for a drink in the winter.

Estaba bastante ocupado cuando llegamos, pero encontramos una mesa en una de las muchas habitaciones extravagantes.Tuve que esperar en el bar un tiempo para el servicio ya que 2 mujeres estaban ocupadas.Baguette de filete hermoso. Bonitas patatas fritas.Ojalá hubiera más opciones de lados sin embargo.Costoso. Es una pena que no hagan un menú de almuerzo.

Cuatro de nosotros disfrutamos de una cena muy encantadora allí, los mejores juegos y chips. Gran menú para elegir. Gran cerveza y carta de vinos. La comida fue excelente. A mucha historia le encantó el ambiente pintoresco en el pub, ubicado en un pueblo encantador. Evenjng muy agradable

Popped in on the way back from York. Since we last popped in which might have been in the eighties they seem to have erected some kind of unlit tent over half the garden. Not sure what it's for. Can't imagine dining in there.Its rather dingy. The pub itself looks little different a collection of small dark rooms. It still seems to be popular but I think that's the location and antiquity effect. As pubs go I thought it pretty average in all other respects. When the sun goes down it does not have the same allure.

Had a lovely lunch at the chequers food very tasty and well presented really enjoyed it will drfinatley be back

Arrived at 5:45pm on a Wednesday evening (14/08/19). Pub was next to empty, I asked the lady behind the bar if they were doing food as there was no cutlery etc out, she said "you can order a sandwich off the snacks menu, but you may expect a delay in food as we have a lot of bookings". There was a sign on the bar advertising a burger I asked if this was available and was told it would be at 6pm but they may be busy. We had a drink and left. Didn't feel at all welcome, is there a restaurant?, should we have booked a table?, should we have been offered a table? Who knows, it's unlikely we will return.

We have stopped for lunch at this delightful pub many times. It is a real pub inside, with a lovely, sheltered seating area in the garden, serving delicious food from an extensive menu, good ales and fine wine.

Went with 2 friends midweek,lots of small rooms which gives the pub character.

Encantadora, pequeña posada pequeña. Gran cervecería al aire libre para disfrutar de una copa y sentarse al sol.

As you enter the Chequers from the car park, through the rear gardens there are chickens roaming about freely, which sets the scene of a rustic, unspoilt old pub which has retained its traditional layout of several rooms arranged around a central bar. You can be assured of a warm Yorkshire welcome here. There are five handpumps mostly featuring Yorkshire brewed ales, including Leeds Best and a house beer from Brown Cow. Food is high quality and although not cheap, is reasonably priced for what it is, with most main dishes priced around the £mid-teens. The menu is interesting, variable and should have something on there for everyone and may include the likes of venison, pheasant, various fish options as well as vegetarion choices, and all come with a good selection of vegetables. Highly recommended.

Stopped here on a bank holiday walk with the dog. Dogs allowed in beer garden and in bar, but not restaurant. Lovely and old timey/quirky. Garden is beautiful with established plants and many tables and chairs. The session ale is great.

I almost don't want to review The Chequers Inn at Ledsham for fear of being unable to get a table. It's a true hidden gem .... My husband and I eat here regularly. It truly is faultless ..... It's a beautiful old fashioned pub in a beautiful location. Sitting outside in the garden in summer under the gazebo, or inside in the winter with real fires .... The food is always delicious, the service so friendly .... We have eaten our way through the menu and have loved it all. The crab and prawn timbale, the perfectly cooked steaks, the outstanding Sunday roast, wonderful cheesecakes, the awesome cheeseboard. I cannot recommend this place too highly. Love it ....

Las porciones son adecuadas y la calidad de la comida es muy buena. El servicio fue excelente. Durante el día, solo los comedores de la planta baja están abiertos y los lugares son limitados, por lo que mi consejo sería reservar para evitar una larga espera. Hay un gran aparcamiento en la parte trasera.

Julie Pan fried Goats cheese salad. Bed of rocket, tasteless beetroot/ chestnuts and cheese wasn’t even warm. At £12.95 this was an expensive disappointment.

We called in on Monday and had a fabulous family meal. It’s just a short detour from the A1 and was on our way back home.

Nine of us gathered from South Cheshire, Liverpool, Huddersfield, York, Helmsley and Perth (Australia) to take mothers out for Mothers Day - we were in a separate room up stairs, the food was great and our waitresses could not have done more for us.

We visited with a friend for Friday lunch. We had booked a table, which I strongly advise as when we arrived at 1 pm the car park was full and it was busy.

I’ve visited the Chequers several times now and found the food to be excellent. This is a cosy atmospheric good old English pub and I’ve read, one of the oldest in West Yorkshire.
