The Chequers Inn

We chose The Chequers as a result of an Internet search and because it was advertised as a gastro Pub. The food was good but the service was mediocre. We did not really feel welcome. When I asked for bread with my meal the waiter seemed affronted. Although our food was well presented and delicious we were sorry to hear that some fellow B&Bers were not at all impressed with their meals.

Good food but waiters could do with smiling a bit more.

A very enjoyable evening spent with the family celebrating my husband's birthday. Great food (especially the steaks) and service. We will definitely be back again.

Warm welcome on arrival, which is so very important as a solo traveller.. I booked online an hour before dinning & the table was already set for me in the bar area, right by the log burning open fire - perfect. The staff were attentive, efficient & kind. The food was amazing, cooked exactly as requested & the tweaks to the menu offered were arranged, tasted great. Thank you! :-)

I’ve visited the Chequers before, but had n mixed experiences. Latest visit was very good, lovely open fire in the bar, food was well cooked and presented, service very attentive. It was very quiet for a Thursday night which was a shame

Very nice Sunday roast, in a beautiful old building with incredible surroundings. Good selection of starters and puddings with some delicious rare beef in the middle! Will be returning soon.

Good atmosphere, i.e. cozy - could have been busier, but it was early doors on route back from a day in Lincoln. Staff friendly but brusk, The meal scored a good 7 and was reasonably priced - just missing Wow! Great pub and great pub grub............

Fantastic location, loved the decor. The staff were spot on, friendly and professional. The food lived up to ourexpectations!!! Devine! We will be returning very soon

We had a lovely walk around the Vale of Belvoir followed by lunch at the Chequers Inn at Woolsthorpe. Lunch was delicious and we were well looked after by the friendly staff. Thank you!

We all felt the food could of been warmer. I like my food to be nice and hot when it comes out. Good service and a friendly place.

Been going to the Chequers for years and there is nowhere in the area which offers the standard of food and service that you can find here. It’s a local legend.

Hospitable, good food and very nice, quiet location and pub for a birthday meal. Unfortunately we didn’t have room for dessert, but the selection looked great 👍🏻

Another great meal. Monthly specials were really nice. Great service again.

Something different since last visit, last year. Afraod to say, the food we thought was quite stodgy and my steak really tasted of the "farmyard". Perhaps this reflected the fact that the dining room was empty albeit for four other diners. A bit disappointing to say the least.

The food as usual was good but the service was very slow. We had booked for 8.00 and arrive at 7.45. We waited in the bar of 30 minutes. I asked a waitress if out table was ready and she said she hadn't got a clue, after a furher ten minutes I asked at the bar and we were then finally seated at our table. We hoped that the meal would be quicker but it was not. Our main course finally arrived at 9.30. a long time as some of us didn't;t want starters. Having waited so long we then found that the waitress was in a hurry to get cleared and started clearing before we had finished eating. We gave up as afters just felt like it was more hassle than it was worth and asked for the bill. I realise they were busy and had a wedding party - but there were waiters/waitresses who kept checking empty tables and drifting about while we were left waiting. It just was poor. When we were asked at the end if everything was o.k. I am afraid I told it like it was. the food was good - but.... They offered a voucher if we left our email. We await developments. To be honest we had visitors and had just wanted a nice meal out with them. It didn't live up to our previous experiences by some margin. sorry.

A lovely evening. Very nice staff, a good sized table for our group. Prompt and helpful service and a good choice on the menu with an interesting seasonal menu for October.

Excellent menu, great service and wonderful cosy atmosphere What a great place. Menu changes regularly and deals on offer for meal and room are very attractive Highly recommended

Lovely rural pub, big open fire very cosy atmosphere. Very friendly and helpful staff. Food was excellent wine was lovely it was much needed... Would of had pudding but there was no room.

Lovely country pub and restaurant. Great Sunday lunch with a 2 course menu. We had a lovely walk around the area to work up an appetite.

Great food at a good price, lovely pub interior and friendly service. There was a big party being catered for as well so was impressed that they maintained good service and were also able to cope with last minute GF request

We've eaten several times during our annual visit to the area as well as dining with friends. Good food for all tastes with friendly and efficient staffing. A delight in every way.

Great people, great food. You can't beat chequers for consistency and quality. The Grouse was superb and the gin selection beyond compare. Will definitely keep coming back. The surroundings are always clean and table service great even when they have big weddings on at the same time.

Sunday lunch Was disappointing cold on arrival and meat very fatty .the room was like a cateen ..doors open lots of flies whilst eating ..shame really as it set in beautiful surroundings

Food and service were excellent and very timely. Every touch point was warm and welcoming. It doesn't seem to matter how busy they are the staff still have time for you.

Wonderful experience from start to finish. The food was amazing with a good varied menu, lots of choices for drinks also. Service was spot on with timing and with the right level of attentiveness. Will definitely be returning!

We've been to the Chequers a few times with family. Great food but a bit pricey. However, this time, on arrival we ordered a pint of bitter and a small orange juice and they cost £6.50 !! Ouch, this is Lincolnshire, not central London. We went for the special offer meal (6 pm to 7pm) good food at a reduced price.

Fabulous food but poor service as there was a function & not enough staff to cope with pub customers. Wouldn't stop me going again tho as it really was superb food.

We all had an excellent food offering and were well looked after by the staff. Our dogs were accommodated without fuss which made the overall experience much more pleasurable.

Love the ambiance & food but rather surprised they couldn't offer us decaffeinated coffee. Sticky toffee pudding a particular favourite. On main course not so keen on purple potatoes

We visited on a wedding Saturday when the place was heaving and were really glad we had booked. When we saw how busy it was we expected there might be a long wait but apart from a couple of minutes spent looking for someone to check us in everything went smoothly. We had a main course lunch (fish and pie), both meals were superb but in quantity and taste. If you're in that neck of the woods book a table you won't be disappointed.

Great pub with excellent food. Service was exceptional considering we were eating in the garden. Additions to the menu of Dressed Crab and Lobster Thermidor were a pleasant surprise and we enjoyed both.

Excellent location, food and ambience. The staff super attentive and charming. Great choice of food and drinks and the most beautiful and delicious Pimms ever!

The pub is in such a lovely location location, great staff, great good and a pretty eclectic drink selection to match! - I couldn't recommend this place higher

Fantastic service in a wonderful setting. We're so pleased to have chosen this restaurant to celebrate Fathers Day! Will definitely be back again soon. The food was beautiful. Very tasty and wonderfully presented. The restaurant staff were brilliant with our two young children (5 and 2) allowing them to share a portion (as it was so hot that day they weren't very interested in food!) and splitting it for us so even their food was beautifully presented. Was very excited to spy the restaurants private dining room and will certainly consider this for future events. All in all a very pleasing visit 😊

This was our First time visiting and certainly won't be the last, very nice place in loverly surroundings great food and friendly staff. thanks again.

We enjoyed a truly excellent meal, in an amazing rural setting, accompanied by great service from the front of house team. We will certainly be back!

Very welcoming pub/restaurant in the lea of Belvoir castle, where we had lovely wedding anniversary dinner. Food, wine and atmosphere was just great and the bill was very fair!

It is what a country pub should be. The food, staff and ambience were all good so I would recommend to all wanting a good value night's dining.

Love this place! We used to live in the area and always had a perfect meal and drink here so decided to trip over for lunch with my mum and husband and again wasn't disappointed! Food was great, service was fab and the wait for food was minimal even though they were busy and had a wedding arriving at any moment! Keep up the good work!

Great food and fantastic staff. The perfect place to go for a Sunday lunch. Good offers and great portion sizes. Would recommend to anyone in the area.

Lovely Sunday lunch - selection of roasts, good mix of real ales and excellent wine list. All in the beautiful surroundings of the Vale of Belvoir, enabling us to walk it all off afterwards. Highly recommended!

Yet another great night at the chequers. Party of 6 and food was all excellent choice was large and as usual service was really good. Thankyou

Lovely pub in a lovely setting The food was good had the Sunday lunch although didn't read the small print that it was extra and not on the 2 course for a set price maybe should make it clearer on the menu

A lovely place with very warm and welcoming staff. The food was yummy but honestly think it's the staff that make this place so great!

Made to feel at ease as soon as got there at the bar. We arrived earlier than planned and it was no trouble to arrange the food earlier. The food was plentiful and well presented. We asked for more gravy, and it was no problem. Everyone was courteous and timely and overall it was a lovely calm environment to talk, relax and eat and dink. The price was right too. PERFECT way to spend a Sunday lunch time with friends 👍👍👍

The menu stated garlic roast potatoes with the chicken dish- they were not. Just boiled potatoes which were fried in a pan for a bit. I also mentioned that it was my mothers birthday when i booked, they did not acknowledge this at all. It would have been nice even if they had just stuck a little candle on her desert..... Starters were lovely though and service was good.

absolutely excellent the treacle tart was without doubt the best bit apart from the Cheese and the Pate !!! Service was very good and always with a smile Well done

Food was excellent! Took a good while to come a d take our order but was definitely worth the wait. 🖒A bit pricey as we couldn't all manage desert and was a fixed price for 3 courses so paid whether we had it or not but the 2 courses we did have were delicious.

Great pub with good food and friendly service. Menu had several vegetarian options which was great and the drinks options were huge. Would highly recommend this place and will be certain to go back.

Great location and one of my favourite pubs but the service was slow and not a lot of attention given to us-is your meal ok at the beginning of it not at the end, took ages for someone to take our order... food was good especially the burger!
