The Chequers Iat Millbrook in Central Bedfordshire

Had two lunches while at Millbrook. Both fish & chips and chicken & bacon salad were rather good. Other dishes looked pretty good as well, although have not tried them.Efficient and friendly service. Enough seating and convenient parking. Both days were reasonably busy with quite a few regulars.Certainly a place to visit in the area.

Comenzamos con las bebidas del bar, donde había una gran selección de cervezas, whisky y ginebra juntos una selección de frutos secos. Fue una noche agradable soleado, así que nos sentamos afuera. Los alrededores son lo que cabe esperar de un pub/restaurante. El personal era muy servicial en no incluye algunos ingredientes de varios campos. El paté de caballa era buena, como principales campos de pescado. En general fue una experiencia agradable.

Estábamos visitando la familia y fuimos a celebrar mi cumpleaños. Había tres generaciones en el partido. Mi nieta de 10 años conoce el Chequers bien y me hizo un gran alboroto de ella lo que nos encantó! La comida era de un alto estándar. Me tomé una cerveza que estaba bien cuidada y agradable. Aunque la familia viven cerca no había sido durante algún tiempo y nos recordó lo bueno que es y qué placer para visitar. Es bueno.

Servicio sharp amable servicial, el verdadero punto de golden es la comida sana muy sabroso, bien preparados y cocinados con auténtica sensación a la perfección y que no dijo a la ligera. En nuestra opinión, no hay un pub restaurante toque el gran chef y alrededores. Cocina casera de estilo italiano, relajante ambiente y encanto, postres, café el mejor gran y ale cambia, pero siempre en la parte superior, así que ¿cuál es el inconveniente, no hay uno.

Buena comida y frente de Nunca me ha decepcionado cuando hemos comido aquí. El director siempre tiene tiempo para hablar. Bueno para parejas y familias, aunque no es barato para los niños para comer.

Ha sido varias veces y siempre encontré mi anfitrión muy acogedor y profesional, sin prepotencia. La comida siempre ha sido excelente; Thomas sabe su vinos y siempre te ayudará a igualar la comida que la orden. Pensión completa de siempre una de las noches, gourmet pecials periódica, una chimenea en invierno, una visita es siempre un placer. Me quedé asombrado al leer algunas de las críticas publicadas aquí, incluso uno con el mismo nombre un mí (pero que no era yo!) Jill y sugiero que lo prueben.

I dropped into this pub before an engagement at the Village Hall nearby, for a light bite. I poled up to the bar, and straight away was told that this pub doesn't have bottled cola, only on tap!! (How odd) I then asked if they did food, to which I received a very curt reply from the barman. I tried to engage him in friendly chat, but he was having none of it. I ordered Bruchetta from their Italian menu. The food was brought and plonked down on the table without a murmur! I proceeded to eat my very average and quite greasy Bruchetta, and feeling that this was a distinctly unfriendly establishment, drank my rather horrible warm cola, and took my leave. Will I return? Will I heck!!

Not to be confused with the other Chequers on the Ampthill Road., the food here is far superior. Been here a few times so decided to take some friends. Three courses, wine, fresh coffee and liqueurs later they were as impressed as we have always been.

Have been going to this restaurant for a number of years and just love it. Always a warm and friendly welcome and excellent service. The atmosphere is very cosy and a roaring log fire greets you on colder days. The food is delicious and freshly prepared. There is always a good specials board in addition to the regular menu. Fish dishes are very tasty as are the pasta and meat choices. There is a very good wine list. Coffee is a speciality and not to be missed expertly prepared. This is a delightful venue whether for a meal for two, evening with friends and family or a larger celebration. Highly recommend a visit sorry I no longer live as close so can't eat there as regularly.

Disappointingley ordinary. They made little effort. Nice garlic prawns. Flavourless Lasagna in a cracked bowl. Nice ice cream.

48 for a Christmas party . Food was amazing . Really really tasty . Service was great considering how many of us . Would highly recommend .

Xmas Cracker We consider the Chequers the best, quiet dinning by the open fire, Quality food prepared by the chief who clearly cares. Should you choose the bruschetta starter with the chutney and delicate taste, homemade lasagne for main, you will not be disappointed, or prawn cocktail, with a steak perfectly cooked potatoes and freshly cooked green beans with a firm texture, traditional, you will want to linger over a very very good meal. Not forgetting the real ale barrel, try that for sure. We give this great pub restaurant, and staff a well-deserved 5, based on taste quality and value with comfortable surroundings.

Friendly atmosphere. Knowledgable staff deliver a tasty range of authentic Italian cuisine - just like mama used to make. After finding this little gem we'll definitely become regular patrons.

Very welcoming and efficient service. Food was great and served quickly. It is possible to buy their own blend of coffee here-very good coffee understandably! We will be returning!

Been here a few times for lunches and dinners. Always had good food but even better coffees. Worth a visit if you're in the area.

From our first experience will be visiting again.Wide choice for lunch,the lasagne impressed as did the chicken stroganoff.Well presented with excellent service.

Lovely little Italian restaurant where you are well looked after by Tom good choice of food on the menu. Especially delicious Palma ham and as for the Affogato it is second to none and however much you have eaten you cannot miss this!

Our second visit to the Chequers was, once again, almost faultless.Enjoyed another evening with my partner at the Chequers savouring the gastronomic delights from the menu. I started with the Pate, my partner choosing the soup of the day and olives. Both starters were perfectly prepared and went down a treat. We followed these with the main; I had the Lamb Shank and my partner had Spaghetti Bolognese. The lamb, as it should be, was slow cooked to perfection, falling off the bone nicely but still maintaining its full flavour. The accompanying vegetables and mint gravy harmonised the lamb beautifully. The Spaghetti Bolognese was plentiful and blended with nice delicate Italian flavours. I was tempted by the Ginger Pudding which I almost asked for seconds – it was astonishingly moist and full of flavour and texture.The service is excellent with the host remembering our previous visit some 6 months earlier. The atmosphere is warm and quiet – one can lose yourself in conversation without being disturbed or disturbing other diners. Our only criticism is that we would have liked to have seen a more varied wine list, especially for myself as I usually only drink rose wine. Can’t wait for our next visit.

For fresh tasting and good value dinning the Chequers is hard to beet, Coffee fresh and a perfect end to your meal.Probably the best priced and quality in the area.

We nipped in for a quick post-walk lunch and ordered soup from the specials board (pot and leek....not very Italian) and a sandwich from the lunch menu (ham and cheese....again not very Italian) because we were in a hurry. The soup was ok but came with one small slice of garlic bread and the sandwich came on pretty naff white bread with an iceberg style salad garnish. £17 with couple of soft drinks. We were in and out within 30 mins It was all ok but I'd expect similar from a Wetherspoons. Decor is traditional pub style and there's not much light. Service was efficient. Maybe if we'd had more time and ordered something more substantial and Italian we'd have had a better experience.

Went their to celebrate my partners birthday. Had fabulous meal. Thomas is so helpful and accomodating. Food devine, nothing too much trouble. We'll be back again soon.

Good value. Limited food choice as you would expect in a small restaurant but was good and well presented. We'll be back!

I drive past this place nearly every day and it's never appeared too welcoming with chains across the car park and dim lighting plus only open Wed- Sat. Never the less decided to give it a try, we had the lunch menu and the 3 course menu @ £15.50 was reasonable value and the food was good but no wow factor, coffee very good but expensive. Not sure about the marketing strategy of this place, it has several good beers but not really set up to attract drinkers. It's website talks about being close to walks & cycle rides but doesn't allow dogs and has no direct access to the garden. Closed on Sundays so closed when most people have time free.Not sure if I'd bother to go again as there several other places locally that give better value meals of equal or better quality and open more often.

Called in to the Chequers by chance for supper on 26th July. It was late and the kitchen was about to close so just ordered something simple ... Spaghetti with a 'bolognese' sauce. Absolutely delicious! Really proper Italian food. Simple, no designer nonsense but super-tasty, with a crisp side salad and gutsy wine. A true taste of Italy. A pleasant, comfortable, spotlessly clean dining room. A very lucky find. A family run 'pub' (the publican is himself Italian and was 'barista of the year' some while ago), the chef is also Italian. If you are looking for 'designer Italian' with the emphasis on design rather than genuine good food (and we know who we mean, Carluccios!) this is probably not the place for you, but if you appreciate the real thing then you will not be disappointed. I wish this place were nearer to my home in Worcestershire!
