The Chequers is at the heart of the village. Not only is it the place where good food and drink are always provided, it is also the venue for many village activities, including quiz nights, coffee mornings, family lunches, evening dinners, live music, Christmas and New Year's Eve festivities and so on.
As well as the restaurant it also has a comfortable bar area which is a welcoming place to meet friends for a drink and a chat. A variety of real ales, some locally brewed at Hook Norton or Witney, are always on tap and a wide choice of wines and other drinks are available.
Opening times 11.00 am to 11.00 pm Tel: 01608 659393
Hook Norton Brewery not only produces good ale but does so in a building that looks like a holiday home for the Adams Family. Tours of the brewery can be arranged on request.
Donnington Brewery
Donnington Brewery, just the other side of Stow on the Wold, must be one of the most picturesque breweries in the country, as well as producing excellent beer serving local pubs.
