Chequers Inn
Freehouse 
The Chequers Inn is exactly the kind of pub you hope to find in a small village. It's not a 'nice, but corporate chainy experience', like that offered up by innumerable McMullen and Greene King country-style pubs, but an actual, real pub. Already quite attractive from the outside (even if the font is reminiscent of the titles from Prisoner: Cell Black H), once through the low doors you find a wooden beamed, real fire, traditional pub. There are four distinct areas, with an eating focused bit at the back and some couches towards the front. Signs above the bar let you know you can ask about both home made cards and home made pickles. Or how about the truly confusing "pickled egg in a packet of crisps" for 80p? It apparently works well with an extra dash of vinegar and is nicely washed down with one of the three ales available. Food prices are eminently reasonable and the meat from a local farm excellent quality. It can be rather quiet here, but at lunchtimes and weekday evenings it can be pleasantly busy, mainly filled with locals. If you hanker for traditional style pubs with hospitable service, then the Chequers Inn is certainly worth considering. We love it here.
