Chequers Inn, The

The Chequers Inn is a pub where you can head out in the evenings for a pint with friends in Ettington and enjoy wholesome and delicious food too if you're in the mood for a meal. This comfortable local is one of those places where you can relax and unwind, and with its simple French accented décor and tapestries, creates a simple but memorable dining experience. Either the bar or the restaurant will serve you well, and there's also a large garden overlooking the herb and vegetable patches where you can settle down for an informal meal.

The menu brings a mix of European and traditional British fare, where starters could be crab, crayfish and chicory salad with lemon and chive dressing, followed by red wine braised lamb shank and roasted root vegetables. End with a white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake or maybe something from the cheese selection with biscuits and chutney. There's a wide choice of beers, ales and wines to complement your food.
