The Chequers Inn in Canterbury - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Asked for large booking, they where really accommodating and gave us the option for large table to be set up or the seating booked out in area of the restaurant. Everyone enjoyed their Roast dinners from the carvery and the food was really tasty and good selection of meat, vegetables and trimmings. Most of us had puddings too. This is a really lovely pub, enjoyed celebrating my birthday here and is a family friendly pub. We are very pleased with the great service, and the staff are lovely. The cosy fire and seating was good way to end the afternoon after our meal. We could see the children playing the pool table in the designated room off the bar too so could relax. This pub is a hidden gem. Thank you, we will be back! :)

Fantastic pub and the food is great we had Sunday roast last year which was good and this year they do a fantastic Sunday Roast and the apple crumble was fantastic as well we are going back tonight with our three little dogs keep up the good work

Just a great pub only a five minutes walk from Canterbury retreat Excellent beer from Romney brewery And fantastic hosts Food was all very good and reasonably priced The crumble has to have a special mention it was worth the three hundred miles we travelled just for that

Visited for dinner while staying at lodges nearby. Five minute walk away with dog on lit path. Friendly atmosphere, both from owners and the few locals that were there. They welcomed our dog in the bar area. Food good and reasonably priced. Would def go back 😊

Very enjoyable pub food, not trying to be anything it is not. Relaxed atmosphere. Extremely friendly owners, and literally the best stocked and homely Ladie's convenience I have ever had the requirement to visit ;)

A really pleasant place to visit with very pleasant and helpful staff and tasty food at reasonable prices. I sat in the bar but there us also a restaurant just behind. Good range of dishes- I enjoyed the pie and chips - nice and crispy chips and the chocolate fudge cake is out of this world! Hope to return soon.

We were visiting Petham over the Bank Holiday, so called in for a pint and something for lunch. Paula and Steve were great hosts, so friendly & welcoming and they are obviously working really hard to make The Chequers Inn a great venue with great entertainment, wish your Elvis night had been on but good luck to you both, you deserve it. Lunch was great too.

What a little gem. Went for the Cabaret “Rubix-80’s” and buffet. Both absolutely excellent. Very welcoming on arrival and very attentive. Will definitely go back.

Great real pub, Steve & Paula very welcoming hosts and guest ale straight from barrel Great pies too, thanks for welcoming 😀 us Ian & Sue ,South Wales

Went out for dinner, and was looked after very well! Great little pub, with good events on too. I'm looking forward to Friday!

Decided to book a sunday lunch as we were staying at the lodge retreat nearby. So glad we did! It was fabulous and the plum crumble is to die for! Lovely staff too, they were run off their feet but nothing was to much trouble. Will definitely go there again.

5 out of 5 we visited twice on our holiday would highly recommend staff really friendly and very welcoming. Food was delicous i had rib eye and the pepper corn sauce was amazing and was such good value, Dogs are welcome too in the Bar We also had breakfast which was great value as you also got your drinks included in the price, 5 min walk from the Canterbury reach lodges, would definitely visit again please support this amazing little pub

Excellent meal good service thank you for going above and beyond to cater for our birthday celebrations, we will be back!

Good quality food at an excellent price. Varied menu with a selection of pies/steamed puddings and specials). Real ale served direct from cask on bar. Owners very welcoming and we really enjoyed our evening. Food served all day but note incorrect phone number on building (now +441227531288)

We had Sunday lunch, and it was very good. Good sized portions, plenty of veg, friendly staff, very good value. The only slight criticism is that it was a bit cold, but we were sitting near the door. We will be going back soon.

We visited for steak night a while ago. We ordered steak and the mixed grill and both were fantastic. The owners are warm and friendly and we were really pleased with the prices,, our meals and visit. Will definitely be going again.

looking at the other reviews I wonder indeed if we visited the same pub, it was cold, heating off, log fire unlit most inhospitable. Sunday lunch was dire, overcooked , tasteless and tough beef. probably the worst I have ever eaten. the only redeeming feature...

We had a good pub meal after long journey (sausages and mash, burger) and great beer and cider on tap. Meals were well prepared, the burger was a huge stack, good quality sausages and extra gravy was offered with the bangers.

Staying at Canterbury Reach Lodges for a week, The Chequers is a perfectly placed pub & restaurant that I'm very pleased has re-opened after COVID etc. Owners were very welcoming and prices were really reasonable. Just a shame we don't live close enough to make...

We are very lucky to live nearby and we always enjoy our visits to The Chequers. Steve and Paula are always friendly and welcoming and the food is excellent. Looking forward to our next visit.

Steve and Paula ensured that we had a wonderful time celebrating our friends recent wedding. The room was beautifully decorated and was able to accommodate 13 family and close friends for the evening meal. Last minute changes were handled with calm efficiency and the food...

It's so good to have the Chequers back in operation with its new management, after it was closed for several years. The food is excellent and inexpensive, the owners are friendly and helpful, and the traditional English-pub ambience is just right. We've had lunch there...

Nice to eat in such a welcoming and clean pub which deserves to be very successful. The fish and chips were excellent, good size portions and lovely crisp batter. Liver and bacon on mash with veg was deemed lovely and the ham, egg and chips...

Lovely to see the refurbished Chequers. We received a very warm welcome and then enjoyed a starter of nachos followed by fish and chips and a burger. All were excellent value and very tasty. Will definitely return for a steak night and a Sunday lunch...

Stayed at the nearby Lodge Park and went here several times for a drink. Nice pub with friendly staff and customers.

Nice friendly pub with good food at good prices. New landlords just taken this over and it is very handy to the Canterbury Reach lodge retreat. Hope Steve and Paula make a success of this pub as they are very friendly and welcoming and we...

Visited the Chequers Inn on 14th June, our Silver Wedding! We held our wedding reception in this lovely country Inn 25 years ago and were so delighted to be back 25 years later to relive the wonderful memories and we were not let down! New...
