Emma and I had the pleasure of hosting our wedding reception/party at the Chequered Skipper in June. We couldn’t have been happier with the whole experience from start to finish. The venue is stunning and the separate function room is perfect for weddings or bigger...functions with its own bar and private indoor and outdoor spaces. The room itself was decorated beautifully (see photos) and we were able to add our own touches too. We had a small family lunch, where the food was delicious and the cheesecake especially was a big hit!! We then had a large buffet in the evening for 70+ guests, which everyone loved!!

Went for a birthday meal. Food was disappointingly average and quite bland. Crab cakes were unseasoned and tasteless. Pork was supposed to be cider flavoured but again tasteless. Rice that came with that curry was watery. Rocket and Parmesan salad was just that and no...balsamic available in the premises. May have been an off day for the chef but to be honest we expected more so won’t be returning. Real shame as it is a beautiful location and the staff were friendly.
