The Chequers in North Kesteven

We walked here from Hanworth Country Park, where we are staying. Food was excellent and well priced. Portion sizes were good and food was well presented. Between us we had chilli con carne, steak and ale pie, ham, egg and chips, fully loaded chips and halloumi bites. Highly recommend all of these! We will definitely be returning before we go home. Beers are well priced too.

Excellent Sunday lunch, friendly attentive staff, great atmosphere nothing is too much trouble. Assisted with wheelchair access. we'll be back again very soon

Booked for some friends for a Sunday lunch time. Despite it only being a small menu and didn’t do Sunday lunch they still had lots of items not available despite them being on the menu. It was very quiet in there with not many other diners

What a lovely village pub, beautiful building, great staff and lovely food . It’s a great shame that it doesn’t appear to be supported by the local community. You have a gem here, don’t be like other villagers that don’t give the support that is needed and then moan when it’s gone. Just think about this should you want to sell your house, I certainly wouldn’t buy a house if there wasn’t a local pub at the heart of the community.

My wife needed to make arrangements for a wake at a local venue following the sad loss of her sister in March. Having contacted the few potential venues around our area she settled on the Chequers in Potterhanworth. It was a small affair with some 18 people from the Lincoln area, Norfolk and Birmingham. We cannot thank Kyle enough for his kindness and the venue and buffet were perfect. Nothing was too much trouble and the amount of lovely food provided was most welcome, especially by family who had travelled some distance. Unlike a couple of other potential venues there was no room hire charge. Thoroughly recommend this establishment and Kyle.

Beautiful good , nice atmosphere and friendly staff . Couldn’t be better . We will definitely visit the next time we are over from Boston

Simon the chef is an absolute genius. The menu selection is incredible, ranging from lite-bites to gastronomic culinary delights equal to any fine dining restaurant. This is our first choice for lunch, Sunday roast and special occasion dining including Valentines evening, and we have never been disappointed. Kyle and the team are welcoming and hospitable hosts, in an ambient restaurant serving delicious dishes beautifully presented and offering a wide selection of wines. I recommend to everyone whatever the occasion! We will back to dine here again soon!

Lovely food and the staff were all helpful. Was good to see the place is dog friendly, we will deffinately be back with our pooch. Only downside is no phone or WiFi signal, ZERO .. would be helpful to install customer available wifi, especially if you need to be contactable while out. Other than that highly recommend.

28 came to The Chequers for a pre-ordered meal. Everything from start to finish was superb. Plates hot, food hot & delicious. Staff pleasant & helpful. Have had lots of other meals here in the past 4 months & everyone has been excellent. Many thanks to the chef & all the staff.

Loving locally to the pub we have been waiting for years for the food to be back on the menu and worth it and finally the pub have got it spot on! Great food, good value for money, good service, much better surroundings since the “glow up” of the pub and a lovely experience all round. Sunday lunch is a treat and means we no longer have to travel miles away for a good roast. The normal menu is also great with lots of options and huge portions. Please treat that chef well to keep him as he’s absolutely fabulous and just what our village pub needed!

Could not fault the Sunday dinner, absolutely faultless and delicious. completely relaxed enjoyable afternoon

What a fantastic set of curries for Wednesday quiz nights- great value and absolutely delicious. Huge pot of curry- chicken/ lamb/ vegan options- rice or chips, naan breads, poppadoms and mango chutney £10 including quiz entry- not managed to finish one yet- each time I go - the curries get better x

We went to the Chequers to try Sunday lunch as we're hoping to rent a house in the area for a family get together for our 50th Anniversary next year. We weren't disappointed! The food was excellent, generous portions of both the beef and the lamb and a good selection of vegetables. My husband was particularly pleased as they included his favourite red cabbage. They were a little slow taking our order but there only seemed to be two girls doing their best to cover two bars. The food arrived promptly after that. We did notice we'd been overcharged when we got home as my husband had two courses but we were charged full price for the dessert instead of the 2 course price but we live too far away to pop back. I wish them every success in the future as I believe it has only reopened fairly recently and I hope it will still be open when we return next year.

Sunday Lunch. What a great find. Best Sunday lunch for miles. Wonderful beef, great price and lovely staff. Varied menu

Lovely Food, ajun chicken pasta and a pie, excellent range of food & drinks lovley host. We will be back

Met with family for dinner and have to say the food was excellent, lovely choice with a specials board. The restaurant was quite quiet for a Friday but we appreciate the pub has recently reopened. Give it a go you will not be disappointed

Dropped on this little gem. My partner and I had lamb Sunday lunch and it was excellent. The staff and Manager particularly were friendly and attentive, would heartily recommend.

Heard they’d had a big refurbishment so decided to give it a try on a Thursday evening after work. The new decor looks good, modern but still cosy. Good choice on the menu, all the standard pub classics you’d expect from a village pub. Our food came quickly and we were really impressed with the size, presentation and taste of everything. We both had the steak combo meal, no complaints at all - everything was really good. We will definitely come back and noticed as we left that the bar area is dog friendly also which is a bonus to us.

Had a Sunday lunch with my wife here and was very impressed. Large portions and the food was fantastic (had lamb) lots of flavour and good presentation for a decent price. Will be coming back soon!

We were staying in the area and booked for Sunday lunch. The food was absolutely gorgeous and really tasty, presented lovely and very generous portions. We will definitely be going back even though we are nearly 2 hours away!

We had the most beautiful roast beef in the scorching summer heat!! Everything was perfect, from service to the gorgeous food and perfect portions. One of the best we've had and can't wait to visit again 👍

We had dinner on opening night of the restaurant this week and it was amazing! So much choice on the menu, and yet the chef still accommodated my request for an off-menu chicken salad. Both our meals were that delicious that we immediately booked again for Sunday roast this week. Highly recommend you pop down and sample the culinary delights. Really welcoming pub, great food in a lovely village.

Great food and quick service which was great with young children. Great pub food! We will absolutely return. Shared starter pasta, chicken burger and kids chicken nuggets all freshly made

Nice pub but a very limited choice of real ale & no food available as they don’t have a chef. We got there around 4pm on a Saturday afternoon & there were no other customers at all. We stayed for an hour & when we...

Really lovely home cooked food. Friendly service and great beer selection. Walked across the fields from Hanworth Country Park, which made our visit to the Chequers all the more special. Good vegetarian and vegan selection on the menu. Beetroot burger was fantastic. Dogs are welcome...

Two meals purchased for lunch, presentation, quality and value for money excellent. Great choice of cask ales. Nice polite and friendly staff. Would certainly recommend and will return.

Went for Sunday dinner with my wife. It blew me away by far the best tasting Sunday roast ever had in a pub. Fantastic will go again soon

We absolutely love this pub since the refurb and launch of the new menu. I work in hospitality myself and cannot find a single fault with the food or service at this establishment. Would recommend to anyone!

Oh my absolutely shocked by this village pub, went here today for Mother’s Day had Sunday roast and puddings they were absolutely beautiful. Everything was fresh well seasoned and definitely worth every penny. The pub itself is stunning has a separate restaurant to bar and...

I came for food tonight. I was welcomed by the staff as soon as I walked in and taken to a table, my drink and food order was taken at the table, bill was also brought to the table to me. I haven’t tasted anything...

We walked here from Hanworth Country Park. The staff welcomed us and our dog and brought out treats and water for the dog and invited us inside if we wished. Reasonable priced drinks easy to get to from where we were staying.

Called in here for an early evening drink whilst staying at the local caravan park. Very friendly licensee, dog friendly pub. Unfortunately food wasn't being served but the beer and wine was good. Try and support this place if you are in the area

Last minute dot com tea- village pub steak pie and mash with some of the best gravy ever tasted- fantastic to see the pub full of local village families- delighted to see happy staff, who know the people of our village and welcome everyone with...

Lovely friendly service , food was nice, pub was a little tired and worn but understandable with the effects Covid has had on the industry.

Well thank you Clare and Mitch for a fantastic delicious HuGE Sunday roast. So nice to have a pub in our village selling such lovely food- looking forward to the quiz night in Wed night and another lovely meal xx

No Food, not much on offer, staff not bothered, outside area was a nothing, massive surprise as the village is lovely!

Four of us went to the Chequers pub in Potterhanworth as my brother and sister-in-law were staying for a break in the area. We hadn’t all been together for a long while so it was an important lunch. Whilst I understand that it is a...
