The Chequers Cottenham Cambs

Our hard-working kitchen staff deserve a well-earned break after the Beer Festival finishes, so the main kitchen and the pizza oven will be closed this Monday.
But we have teamed up with the brilliant Holy Loaded food van to keep you well-fed.

They will be pitched up outside from 6pm.
To top it off, we are running a Beer Festival clearance! Any real ale from the festival for just £2 per pint!

The bar will be open as usual, so grab a cheap pint and head out to grab some dinner.

Monday from 6pm

Check out their menu here:

What a second day! C5 absolutely smashed it last night.

Today is the final day of the beer festival. The brilliant Graham Buxton is back at The Chequers, bringing you fantastic live music to close out the weekend, starting a 3pm.

We have something special for the kids this year. Angela, Hannah, and Lily have teamed up to host a day packed with activities, including face painting, a quiz, and plenty of games to keep them entertained.

Come down, enjoy the relaxed atmosphere, and bring the family along!

What a fantastic Fen Edge Festival we had this year in Cottenham! It was brilliant to see the community so involved.

We would like to thank the entire organising committee for having us on Friday night, and a huge thank you to Rhys Taylors, who took some amazing pictures for us.
