Checkers American Diner





Montrose Road Chelmsford

Sunday 2nd August @ 1pm

Dave is arranging a nice little local meet for a meal in Chelmsford

CLICK for Checkers American Diner

A friend of his has been there a few times with his car club so it comes recommended. There's plenty of parking space so no door dingers to worry about. The diner specializes in authentic American recipes and is complimented by its decor which is also authentically American. The booths, for example were imported from Chicago whilst the artwork and artifacts come from Florida.



Check out the Dessert menu. Anywhere that can put Orios in a pie with ice cream has got to be worth a visit.

Please let us know by Saturday night if you can not make this.

Sunday can be a busy day for the Diner & they don't want to keep tables back for "No shows".

Dave has to ring them Sunday morning to confirm numbers. Thank you.

Is it time yet? I'm starving.

What's the dress code? Dinner jackets and dickies, pink shirts or casual?

Bit quiet on here. Everyone still sleeping it off? Thanks for arranging this Dave it made a nice change to the usual pub grub etc.

I know we set them a bit of a task covering our bulk orders but all things considered it was a nice relaxed unhurried meal. Not like some fast food places where they are wiping the table before you've finished the last mouthful.

Typical American sized portions & they certainly know how to do puddings. Orios & pancake mix are on the shopping list for tomorrow.

Yes, thanks for organising this!

It was a great 'chilled' Sunday afternoon - just what was needed. The food was brill - especially the puds - and finished off with choccy birthday cake too...Happy Birthday Matt!

We were saying considering the number of us V the number of staff, 25:2 they coped brilliantly. How many times do you go out now & aren't even greeted with a smile!

Throughout both girls were cheerful, helpful & above all SMILING where many of us would have had a sense of humour failure - I know I would!!

Well, what can I say? What a nice little place in the strangest location. Top food and portion size, well, I came away full. Which is quite an acheivement.

Thanks for organising Dave.

Couple of sneaky pics I took.......





And loving this, Mark
