About the kitchen
Led by experienced hospitality operator John Thirlway, the kitchen team champions modern British cooking built around excellent local suppliers and the best seasonal produce. Menus change regularly, balancing elevated pub classics with dishes that reflect the quality of ingredients and the simple pleasure of eating well.
A village pub for eating well, drinking happily and staying a while
Sitting at the heart of the rural village of Berrick Salome, near Benson and Wallingford in south Oxfordshire, The Chequers is a Grade II listed country pub built of traditional brick and flint, with roots stretching back to the 17th century.
Inside, you’ll find cosy corners, open fires and a relaxed bar that’s just as welcoming for muddy boots and well-behaved dogs as it is for a leisurely pint. Beyond the bar, a generous dining room and private dining space make the pub equally suited to quiet suppers and larger gatherings. Outside, a sun-trap courtyard and expansive garden offer space to settle in and stay a while.
