My husband and I along with 2 friends visited The Friston Chequers for Sunday lunch on 23 June. The young man serving recommended the roast, and all 4 of us were in agreement that it was one of the best Sunday roasts that we have enjoyed for a long time. The staff were attentive and eager to please. A pleasant atmosphere helped to make our visit memorable. We shall return again soon and can highly recommend a visit to this pleasant pub.

We'd seen good reviews, so thought we'd pop in on an early Thursday lunch. We hadn't booked, didn't think we would need to! Thankfully they had set aside a few walk ins and we got there early doors. Starters were as you expect, really well done homemade food. Main was dressed crab with fries and salad. Sounds simple, but so so good. Will recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Quite amazing lunch. Worthy of top class restaurant. Pan roasted duck breast, with smoked duck potato, butternut purée ++. Quite extraordinary meal for only £16.25. Excellent atmosphere, service and Adnams Southwold bitter.

Had a lovely afternoon here handle with care were great as usual the only thing that wasn’t so good was the service as bar staff not serving people in turn landlords daughter running around demanding her parents attention I had to wait for 45 minutes for cod and chips which weren’t very nice and the landlady seemed to be very stressed and gave me a horrible stare when I laughing grabbed salt and vinegar say I was keeping them for my food

Attended a funeral wake , the food was outstanding and the service brilliant! The owners had gone to the trouble of decorating the tables and front door appropriately, much of the food was homemade tartlets and pies including some vegetarian options and the fillings were overflowing there were no short measures , same was true of the sandwiches just really impressed this team deserve all the success , they are at the top of their game .

We had pre-booked (9 of us) to sit in the courtyard for lunch, knowing it was going to be a hot day, the cushions on the furniture were soaked from being left out during the previous day showers and the tables were dirty, as we went to order we were told all the pies were off, this being 1pm! only leaving meals consisting of chips! Poor menu selection, gave 3* as staff were friendly tho!

The whole event, the organisation of the lunch etc was perfect. The meal we had, 3 courses, a la carte and pre ordered, was very high standard and delicious. Thank you all at the pub for making our day so special.

Now, this is a really great pub. But it's not just a pub, it's a lovely, warm, inviting place serving really great food with a menu of a wide choice. On our lunch visit it was very well cooked and presented and provided promptly. The owners were perfect hosts and the service was great. You definitely should give it a try and if you need somewhere to eat prior to visiting Snape, this is the place.

I've been to the chequers twice and both occasions have had fabulous service. The most recent occasion was a last minute call when we were down the road for some lunch. The staff were more than happy to accommodate myself and my partner plus our dog! The food was served quickly and was excellent and both my fish dish and my partners crab dish, were so fresh. We will make it a regular occurance to visit when we go to Aldeburgh in the future. Many thanks for your great service.

Went for lunch today with relatives from Lincoln on the off chance and had a very warm welcome and they accommodated us with a table for 5 adults with no problem, found it to be everything we would expect in a dog loving pub/restaurant, the tables are well spaced and not crowded together to maximize profits as a lot of establishments do. The staff were very welcoming and the food was very good , they gave the dogs a nice bowl of fresh water along with some treats, I live just south of Norwich and would certainly take the time out to visit again. Well worth a visit!

The food was a little disappointing here I won't lie, pretty bland. The soup I had didn't really taste of much. We ordered cheesy chips but just got chips as they had no cheese for the chips.... But they still had cheese for a burger.. the vegi meal I was told wasn't great either. Pub itself clean and tidy with friendly staff but won't come back for food.

Cheap and cheerful. Customers generally regulars who are of mature years .Run and on behalf of young adults with learning difficulties which makes it a worthwhile enterprise. A somewhat limited menu due to restrictions on use by the Scouting organisation who own the premises. Basically an excellent community cafe
