You're always sure of a warm and friendly welcome from your hosts Chris and Brian Priest, who this year celebrate their 21st year at The Chequers.

The Chequers is situated in the south Leicestershire village of Swinford, approximately 1.2 miles from junction 19 of the M1 on its interchange with the M6 and A14.

The pub is within 1 mile of the famous Stanford Hall and its adjacent caravan park.  

Due to its geographical location, The Chequers makes an ideal meeting point and being a traditional village public house we cater for all ages.

There is a large garden with children's play equipment and toddler facilities.

We also have traditional pub games including table skittles, dominoes and card games of crib and solo.

Food is available in the form of bar meals including vegetarian and children's snacks and we have weekly specials.

A regular guest ales range is available to compliment our varied standard selection. We also have a comprehensive wine list and all standard optics.

Children's snacks, sweets and icecream are on sale at the bar to keep the little ones happy!

A marquee is available for hire on the premises, which can cater for up to 150 people.

Meetings, buffets and coach parties are all welcome by prior engagement.

There is a large car park to the rear of the building.

Regular entertainment is laid on including our annual beer festival, firework display and bonfire night, worm charming championships, bands, discos and regular barbeques with bouncy castles - we've even been visited by Elton John, Freddie Mercury and Elvis Presley (tribute acts!!) in recent years!

Keep an eye on the events page for further details of forthcoming events.
