IN THE BEAUTIFUL GEORGIAN CITY OF BATH, Chequers has been the central meeting point for the community on River Street, Royal Crescent and Circus for countless years.
We hope to continue that tradition offering a friendly bar stool for a chat or a cosy corner for lunch or dinner with friends. Traditional ales, a vibrant wine list and chic cocktails all complement a stunning menu of classic British cuisine.

We were a party of six and three had the belly pork which was delicious. One person had the butternut roast and loved that too. The other person had Dover sole and said that he was disappointed as he was still hungry but the quality was good. We all had desserts which were really lovely and overall we had a great time. The service was excellent.

Great music, venison, monkfish & wine very good but the caper & lemon sauce for the monkfish was in excess. My crab starter was even less successful with heavy flavours of accompaniments dominanting the dish. Side dish of broccoli was completely ruined by a hot/chilli sauce. My partner enjoyed the marrow starter and the venison main.

We went for a Sunday roast and it was one of the best I have had. The pork was delicious and all the accompaniments were well cooked and tasty too. We had to ask for extra gravy but this wasn’t a problem. The staff were great too.
