The Chequers in West Oxfordshire

Steak was cooked to perfection, fish similarly. The service was absolutely brilliant from everyone involved. Relaxed but oh so attentive without being at all intrusive. Wine list quite extensive (some of it pricy) and ours was spot on -delicious! Clearly popular with locals and visitors alike. Would we go back? You bet!

Difficult to park nearby but worth the effort. Dining room very attractive but the lighting needs a redesign of some sort. Very attentive Romanian staff.

The food here is delicious and we were so excited to go back to support their reopening. We know from previous experiences that the service is in no way in line with the level of the food but deal with it regardless. We called up to book a table and were told we couldn’t book and just to turn up. Turning up, we were asked if we had made a reservation. Well, no. We tried and were told we can’t. Waiting time was an hour which we were happy to do if we could have some nibbles. Maybe just some bread and butter? That seemed too much to ask and were ignored from there. Such a shame. Used to love this place but will not be going back. Service has unfortunately fallen below even their normally low standards.

Today I celebrated a milestone birthday with 15 family members. We chose this pub because of its location (easy to reach from the midlands, Hampshire and North London. From the minute we were showed to our table in the private upstairs dining room, through to leaving 3.5 hours later, the whole experience was just perfect. We had pre ordered our food but the staff were more than happy to make changes to the order and very kindly delayed service to accommodate some late arrivals. The staff were very welcoming and efficient, not to mention patient! The food was delicious (most of the party had the Sunday roast) and plentiful.All in all, a great choice for a get together! Thank you 'The Chequers'.

We had a fabulous dinner here and the staff could not have been nicer! Lovely smoked haddock with potato gratin!

Good range of real ales. Good food. Pleasant interior with small nooks & crannies. Handy for the theatre.

Small menu with some ordinary dishes on. But the food when served is right out of the top draw.A great range of Fullers beers as well. Good atmosphere to the place as well. The deserts were amazing the treacle tart was off the chart!Recommended if you are in Chipping Norton.
