As a number of other reviews have mentioned, a shortage of staff remains an issue for most hospitality venues post COVID I 've made allowances for this in other reviews, and The Chequers is no different. However, despite having a full restaurant when we visited at peak time (Fri evening, 9 Jul and only a couple of staff serving, we couldn 't have expected any better, so a big thanks to our waiter for being so attentive under the circumstances. He apologised for things taking 'a little longer than usual ', but we were fully prepared for things to be on the slow side, so it was all perfectly fine. We were a table of four (two couples and each shared nibbles for starters (olives foccacia both e...
Staying in the area we booked this having seen positive reviews. It lived up to the strong billing. My tempura oysters had a good light batter and were beautifully cooked and delicious. We both had the grilled (day boat catch) sole, which was also well cooked served with samphire that avoided being overly salty and tender and Norfolk peers (type of new potato). Desert was for me a bit disappointing as the chocolate marquise was dominated by salted caramel flavour that is not one of my favourites and generally over used, although accompanying chocolate ice-cream was very good. There was a nice selection of wines by the glass and I did like my Albarino as accompaniment to the sole. Service was...
When we told some locals that were eating at The Chequers Inn their reaction almost made us cancel. We wish we had because our overall experience was very poor the food was very good, but it was ruined by the service. When we arrived our table wasn't ready and the staff argued about it in front of us until we offered to take a drink in the waiting area to ease the pressure. During the evening the staff complained to us about how stretched they were almost every time they came to the table which initially we were sympathetic to but after a while, it just became a drag on our evening. Finally, the chef was in an open kitchen and we could hear his entire conversations with colleagues which were...
Am afraid despite renovations the bathroom smelled of fungus. The double bed had only one bedside table so none for me to even perch my glasses on. For this priced room, expected more. We had been warned re need to walk/ drive to breakfast at nearby hotel. Landed up waiting 45 mins for cooked breakfast as the order had been forgotten. Ate dinner there the night before which was really poor. So am afraid 2 is generous. Staff were friendly and apologetic for poor service. But would not stay there again. Oh and milk provided in the fridge was off! Reserviere jetzt einen Tisch
Had lunch here on a whim and I’m so glad we did! The service was great from the get go and we were offered a “pod” to sit in as it was windy. I was recommended a local gin that was amazing (and I have since purchased). The food itself was absolutely beautiful, we shared a simple starter of focaccia with oil that was divine. Followed by two orders of fresh pasta and a gorgeous fillet of hake. Next time we’ll be sure to hold back on the bread so we can try some desserts which looked great! Thoroughly enjoyed and will be returning
We went early evening for drinks and sat in front beer garden. At the bar the staff were downright rude and complaining almost themselves that customers were coming in and expecting to be served even though they were fully open. Add this to the fact the drinks were the most expensive we have found in the area, we will not be going again to this unremarkable pub.
Nice people, good food and a specific dietary request satisfied but the service was woeful. I suspect that they're short of staff but really they do need to up their game. The pods in the garden are a nice idea but don't make it easy to stay alert to the needs of the diners inside them.
We would have liked to have sat in the bar area, we were in the restaurant with quite a few children, we don’t have children. BUT the food was outstanding. I had the fish risotto with lobster, absolutely incredible! Service was fab too! Reserviere jetzt einen Tisch
Great Friday lunch for my wife and I. We went for a walk out to Thornham beach and then to Chequers for lunch. Delicious food and helpful staff. Thank you guys. Loved the pig cheeks and the smoked sea salt and caramel ice cream
