Our favourite local pubs, great for food and Sunday roast dinners.
The Chequers is our regular drinking spot. Especially on Sundays with our neighbours. The pub is family friendly, plays sport on occasions, serves great food and books great DJs. And all with a 15 minute walk home. The perfect duration to walk off a roast dinner! :)
