The Chequers in Central Bedfordshire

We all had the pies which were very good. Very reasonably priced too!

Had a lovely meal at The Chequers with the family, the staff went out of their way to accommodate us even though we walked in. The pub is a small well kept county pub, with outside seating and a nice restaurant area inside. We had the lamb Sunday roast, it was very reasonably priced and delicious to boot. It was served with a large jug of gravy unlike many places we visit. The child's roast was also well cooked and well thought out. The food was clearly cooked with love and care. Over all it was a great experience and I would recommend The Chequers. Thanks for a lovely experience.

Nice little place for a countryside pint.

Called in for a drink with my son & his friend, I cannot comment on the food but found the barman and other customers very friendly and welcoming.

Friendly staff. Willing to help with a smile

For the cost of a Sunday lunch it's worth the money, but don't expect much the meat selection four slices of paper thin beef, lamb, and what resembled a nugget size piece of chicken. The puddings where also rather expensive.

My walking group used this for a lunch. It was ok but service was very slow given all 9 of us had to pre-order. Food was not exciting but I was glad that a very large ladies group arrived after us making it very full. Useful parking. The Beers were fine and better priced than around Harpenden. The draw back is uninspired food with slow service.

Very welcoming and the food was great

Tuesday lunchtime when we visited. Food was excellent as was the beer. Lovely little pub, friendly atmosphere & staff. Will be returning for more.

Great local pub, nice little beer garden at the back.

Popped in here with a friend for lunch but sadly they were not serving food that day as they were catering for a funeral. We just sat in the garden with our drinks and the dogs. The garden is nice with tables nicely spaced. There is also a small car park. We only stayed for the one drink as we were getting hungry. Would go back if they were serving food.

Local, village pub with lovely, friendly owners.

James and Kate did the most amazing day and BBQ for 70th Birthday party the food was outstanding, bar staff were fantastic

Great for real ale and lunch. I understand it has changed management since my last visit, so cannot give a most recent update.

A very nice pub with lovely garden for BBQ ..Great selection of beers 🍻.

Bobbed in for a pint. Fairly busy and lively. Good range of beers available, prices are about standard. Beer was nice.

Great pub, great food, great staff!

We only popped in for a drink early doors, drink was a bit expensive but there was a good crowd and the atmosphere was good

We went 3 generations for Mothers day - the best ever meal on mothers day - beautiful gifts for all the mothers in the restaurant - food was amazing and the flower pot desert 100% edible was the better than you would find in a Michelin stared restaurants - James & Kate amazing hosts and Sam the most fantastic waiter - could not wish for anything better for Mothers day - thank you Chequers Caddington

Friendly oub. Great food. Worth a visit for sure

Lovely small family run pub with home cooked food. Will be returning!

Friendly, food so good. Lovely atmosphere. We are new to the area and want to settle in. Really lovely evening. Thank you Chequers.

Great food and service. James is a great host. This will become the goto resteraunt for the area. Highly recommended.

Best pub in Caddington! Er, the only pub in Caddington 😂 Anyway it has always been good over the many years, current management is exceptional. They know how to look after their customers local or one offs, all are valued. Beer is always good and food excellent.

Great lunch. Good service. Fair price. Lovely family gathering.

So happy to have this wonderful pub in our village!!

A really lovely busy pub. very well kept ale, straightforward well prepared food and very welcoming and friendly.

A lovely village pub, warm and cosy with friendly staff.

Lovely pub with a fantastic menu, caters for meat eaters, vegetarian, vegan and dairy free. Very friendly. Would recommend.

The only pub in the village, the lack of competition has made it a bit " Wicker Man " for us out of towners. It's a local pub for local people, they'll have no trouble there!😉

This was the first meal as a family we had there and it was delicious with a warming wood burner fire. Definitely going back. Xx

Lovely local pub, Sunday dinner fantastic

We visited a couple of weeks ago and had a really nice time! The staff are su friendly, service was quick and everyone’s food was great. I had some of the vegan snack pots and shared the vegan chocolate orange pudding which was all really tasty! I don’t expect vegan options at pubs so to have choices for starters, mains and desserts is amazing and everything I tried was great value! Hope to visit again soon :)

The staff went out of their way to accommodate us as we did not have a reservation- place buzzing & full. Tempting full menu - the snack pots yummy & good value. I had the chilli con carve which was delicious. Good choice of wines by the glass. Will definitely return - with a reservation! Thank you

I had the best fish and chips. Very friendly and welcoming

Cannot praise the staff & chef enough for the really well cooked Chicken/bacon/brie & cranberry puff pastry pie & chicken curry we had yesterday. Everything was so tasty being freshly cooked & well presented. Not local to the area, but would certainly come again when passing. Very good eating & reasonably priced as well; thank you all at the Chequers. If the rest of the menu is of the same standard then you're in for a treat

We had a really delicious lunch at this friendly welcoming village pub a couple of days ago. We had not booked but could choose a table in the garden or inside. Really good varied menu, with home cooked dishes. We chose a toasted cheese and red onion sandwich, choice of bakery style bread plenty of filling served with steak style chips and very tasty. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Our local !Staff always friendly and great selection of drinks !! Im so happy they do Brockmana Gin !;)

Great food and great pub. Very warm welcome and staff very attentive. We had the halloumi burgers which were lovely. We had not been there for a while and already planning our next visit.

Just had an absolutely fantastic meal , staff are very welcoming and friendly would definitely recommend, they all go above and beyond

A great restaurant and pub. The landlords are great people who are active both in the pub and in the community. The Chequers will often host village events. My favourite part about the restaurant is that they have a pen of chickens in their garden and they use their eggs to make fresh omelettes.

Very nice place good beer good food

Arrived here after trying to revisit my youth and take my wife back to a pub I used to frequent Only to find out it's now a country store!.. more info another time. However stopped here to grab a drink and ended up staying for a couple. On our arrival the landlord was on the phone and carried on the conversation politely whilst taking our orders. However after seating ourselves in the garden with our drinks he came over to us directly and immediately apologised for any slight caused. He had been on the phone to his Regional Manager discussing renovations and we had arrived at a particularly crucial part. Firstly I had taken no affront to him carrying on a telephone conversation sporadically whilst serving me but secondly and more importantly to immediately apologise showed such a concern for customers that we will be back. Plus the Ale and lager available are great. Also there is a chicken run and coup in the garden and a barrel of water for patron's dogs. Lovely village setting with the church just across the road and really great guy.

We are new to Caddington and what a find the Chequers is , James and his team are excellent and the locals are very friendly . All the food is excellent but if there is a better ploughman’s anywhere I haven’t seen it , defiantly worth a visit . 10/10 .

Nice quiet pub, good food and fair size garden to sit in

Fantastic food and friendly service. The beef and ale pie was one of the tastiest I have had. We will most definitely be back!

Great pub, Great Landlord, Great Beer

Tonight was Mexican night. Starters we had mini beef tacos main fajitas and beef brisket. Pudding was home made rum cheese and churros with chocolate dipping sauce. The special drinks on offer tonight were mojito and margaritas! James and Katie are amazing landlords and the staff are a great credit to them.

Lovely place, lovely People. I ll keep your place in my mind, first time in england with my british boyfriend, from.the french girl 😉

Food is fantastic, service very friendly and welcoming - Sunday roast amazing, can't fault anything........well done Chequers team, will be visiting again and making sure my family and friends come to. 5*

Pre-booked for a group of 7 for Sunday lunch and table was ready for us when we arrived. As well as the Sunday Roasts, there was plenty of other choice on the menu and so we ordered a mixture of roasts and mains between us. All were promptly served and as we were all hungry, the sizeable portions were well welcomed! The food didn’t disappoint, every one said how enjoyable their meals were. My partner and I had the gammon roast and he said it was probably the best roast he’s had in a pub! Despite being full, we couldn’t resist pudding after seeing others order and again, the chocolate brownie sundae was lovely. The staff were brilliant, attentive and a friendly service all round. I would definitely recommend The Chequers, it’s a great place to eat or just have a drink. It’s five stars from us - thank you!

Still not used to pub prices after over 2yrs out ok UK. Landlords must have hard time, and the money isn't about

We arranged to meet friends here on Sunday as it was midway for both of us. I had prebooked a table, Claire rang me on Sat to adv they were fully booked Sunday & would we like to pre book our meals ( which I thought was a nice touch). Arrived 2 hours before the booking in order to have drinks & a good catch up. Staff & locals were very friendly, the decent sized beer garden is also nice. My friend had decided what starter he was having 24hrs earlier, however it was not on the Sunday menu, not a problem, the barman asked the chef & hey presto the nachos arrived. The Sunday lunch was gorgeous, proper home cooked & 3 of us managed to fit in a pudding. A lovely way to spend a Sunday afternoon, in a friendly proper (non chain pub) with friends & gorgeous food, only thing is we don’t live local as would be here a lot more. Well done everyone keep up the good work

Great pub, Great food, Great service

A real treat - full English, freshly prepared, hot temperature, friendly staff Would definitely return / for all meal periods 👍

Only a little pub but it has a nice character and the food was outstanding. Generous portion of the roast lamb dinner and a great price. Highly recommended, but you'll need to book!

Just moved into the area - atomosphere and staff are super welcoming and friendly the food was 5* quality so much than you average pub grub - so happy that we will now become very regulars with The Chequers

Nice bar, friendly staff. Has a good feel about it 🍻

Good beer, friendly staff. Nice pub.

Had a great lunch here this weekend. Kids roast was excellent and a great size. Excellent chocolate pudding. Only thing I would say, a bit overboard on the raw onions on the veggie burger, but otherwise excellent.

Descent pint of ale friendly landlord fabulous fish and chips reasonable price

We are so fortunate to have an excellent local with owners who care and staff who care thank you!

Lovely pub garden, very dog friendly, chickens in the garden too! 😃 Food was very good

Lovely first beer back in a pub

We went to the chequers while we were looking at a property to buy in Caddington. We just needed somewhere warm and a coffee. Staff were very friendly and made us feel welcome and adhered to all covid guidelines. As a family we look forward to visiting again as our new local pub.

Very clean and tidy, the ales taste great and the staff are welcoming

Popped in for lunch after playing the local golf course and were met by a very friendly barmaid wearing appropriate PPE. Pub taking all necessary precautions during these troubled times with one way system in place to protect customers. Good choice on the menu, the...

Amazing food, friendly and attentive staff and happy wife on her birthday

Great little local pub, good beer, good food. Had a Christmas market on today🎅👍.

This pub is great for a quick drink when passing but very small car park

We were taken to this delightful and friendly pub by our old friends. The food and drink was great! ! . The couple running the pub really went out of their way for us. They even got in a barrel of my favourite beer, Theakstons...

Nice pub, but slow beyond all reason. Arrived with two hungry children for a late Saturday lunch. The pub was practically empty but it took 45 minutes for them to serve up two plates of curly fries, by which time the kids were absolutely screaming for food. The adult food came even later, and one plate at a time, with long gaps in between each one, with the last plate appearing nearly an hour after we ordered. And no apology at any point. Sad thing is that the food was, when in eventually arrived, really nice.

Beautiful food with great friendly service. Real ale kept in excellent condition. Best of both worlds, a great pub that does really tasty food.

Even on a Saturday, when they had multiple large tables, they were able to accommodate us and still deliver delicious food. The steak and ale pie was amazing! Our second time coming here and definitely won't be our last. Thanks!

Fantastic food, great beer. Proper village pub!

Another amazing meal, fantastic service, delicious food. This pub is great for a family meal, the food is outstanding and couldn't do any more for you!
