| Chequers is a fantastic micropub tucked away in an alleyway. It has 5 ales, which were Atom IPA & Dark Matter, Vocation Chop & Change, Half Moon Phoebe & Yorkshire Brewing Company Mosaic on my visit. The sheer number of pumpclips on the walls shows how many ales they get through. In addition, there were 8 ciders and perries - Abrahalls Ruby Tuesday, Sandford Orchards Devon Scrumpy, Blaengawney Hallets Rum Cask, Westcroft Janet's Jungle Juice, Farmer Jims Farmyard Perry, Moorlands Farm Rhubarb Cider & Westons Old Rosie & Rosie's Pig. My only criticism is that locals crowd around the bar, making service and choice extremely difficult. They also look at you as if you are a major convenience when you try to get to the bar. The irony being that all the tables were free. There's a couple of tables outside too. A great pub, only spoilt by bar access issues. blue_scrumpy - 8 Aug 2016 21:24 |

| The first Micropub that opened in Yorkshire & it's a gem. Tucked away in a yard off the Market Place it was previously a bakers. Large glass windows to the front with the bar towards the rear up a step. The walls are adorned with beer pump clips, brewery poster's and mirrors, there's also a large quantity of books on real ale on shelves opposite the bar. 5 ales on along with 9 real ciders. My choice of Half Moon Brewery Blonde @ 4.2% was excellent as expected at a 'pub' that prides itself on it's ales. Busy with lots of chatter, no piped music , tvs or fruit machines here! Only stopped for one drink but the Chequers has a really nice feel to it. lezford - 11 Jul 2016 18:54 |
| What an oasis this place is. At last five beers from small breweries and across the spectrum from light to porter. Felt at home with a nice bunch of customers. In all but one of the other pubs in Beverley the range of beers was largely the same and showed no imagination. Those pubs weren't busy and are all in competition with each so why don't they try something different. Probably because they're told they can't. And pubs are closing; what a surprise. The Chequers was really buzzing. Steamer1 - 23 Jul 2015 20:30 |
| One of the few pubs in Beverley to have a selection of non national beers. The 5 included a 3.8% pale, a 5.8% IPA and a dark. 2 were from ATOM which is not too far away in Hull. Deserves much more than 5 and well worth a visit. Rocky53 - 20 Jul 2015 19:46 |
