About The Chequers Inn Pub PAMPISFORD near Duxford

View up Brewery Lane of The Chequers Restaurant and Pub South Cambridgeshire

The history of an inn on this site dates back hundreds of years. As with many old English pubs it is within a stones throw of the local church.

Now experienced publicans Ivan & Maureen Hutton, who have a long established history of the license trade in Cambridgeshire, are welcoming both regular and new customers to The Chequers, maintaining it as a traditional Cambridgeshire pub.

Although a pub with a long history, it has some useful modern facilities such as digital television ( if you want to watch the golf ), beer garden and a rather good pub food menu which many other Cambridgeshire restaurants would envy. Serving real ale, and deservedly listed in the 2010 good Beer Guide.

But most of all The Chequers is a traditional unpretentious Cambridgeshire pub, set in the pleasant village of Pampisford, near Duxford and Sawston, offering good service in a relaxed atmosphere. Some consider particular tables even romantic, it’s up to you to judge.

Whether you are having a meal, or looking for an informal pub with a friendly atmosphere to enjoy a few drinks, you will be have a warm welcome at The Chequers Pub Inn and Restaurant.

The Chequers has two main rooms.

The room to the left can be reserved or hired in its entirety

for business lunches and corporate dinners, or perhaps a special family social dinner. It is not separated from the rest

of the the inn by doors and stairwells, so it is easy just to pop around the corner to order another round or something extra from the menu. An ideal informal private venue.

The photograph to the right shows the main bar area, which customers often prefer to eat in.

“ my wife and I came in for a meal last Wednesday evening. We would like to express our appreciation for the friendly service and quality of the food (even if the dog did disapprove of me !!!), we did enjoy the couple of hours we were with you. We will certainly call in next time we are in the area.”
