IN THE BEAUTIFUL GEORGIAN CITY OF BATH, Chequers has been the central meeting point for the community on River Street, Royal Crescent and Circus for countless years.
We hope to continue that tradition offering a friendly bar stool for a chat or a cosy corner for lunch or dinner with friends. Traditional ales, a vibrant wine list and chic cocktails all complement a stunning menu of classic British cuisine.

My 3rd visit to this cosy place in one of central Baths nicest areas. Friendly and attentive service. As for the food.... nothing short of WORLD CLASS. Shockingly good! Imaginative, superb ingredients, well presented and very very tasty. A varied menu with daily/weekly specials. Unpretentious. I simply cannot recommend this place highly enough!
