Chequers Inn, Ighthamback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Now, sadly, appears to be boarded up. Another one goes to the wall - and quite a decent pub at that.

Called in last night for a meal, not visited for some years. Under new management, very friendly and welcoming, good varied menu. Had a very good well cooked meal.

This is under new management . They seem to have their work cut out to sort out the kitchen to their liking and add their own touch to the bar.
The Ales ... Greene King IPA , Speckled Hen and Ruddles County are in good nick .
The staff just seem a little distraced at the moment with other jobs and it felt a bit cold inside .
Fair play , they seem to be putting in a huge effort to get this place up and running . It needs a few more punters to create a bit more atmosphere ... and maybe the fire lit !!

I hadn't been to this pub for about 6 years but, having heard it was under new management, went there last Friday with the family. I have to say that the food was superbly cooked! Very fresh. Sometimes eating out can be a bit hit or miss and pub food can be a bit mass produced but the food was perfect and all fresh ingredients. All 6 of us really enjoyed it. Very glad to have good pub food locally. Well worth a visit for the quality of food.

Pleasant,straightforward village pub - no gimmicks, but a comfortable relaxed atmosphere and a decent pint. Nothing special, but you could do a hell of a lot worse.

Visited 2 Oct 06. Quiet Greene King pub offering the usual IPA and Abbott, plus a guest, which at the time of visiting was Brains Rev. James. I had the Abbott which was in good condition. The landlord was very friendly and helpful.
My visit was at lunchtime, and in common with myself, most customers looked as if they had popped in for lunch after visiting Ightham Mote.
Overall impression, a peaceful place in which to kick back and unwind.

Nice clean pub in the middle of town, not too far from the park. Quiet on a saturday despite the game being on. Looks to have a seperate section for smoking too.

A traditional english village pub. Friendly staff, excellent beer and the food is high quality and priced right.
A warm welcome awaits everyone, including dogs (With well behaved owners !!!), and the open fires are a wonderful thing in the winter.
