Bear at Home in South Oxfordshire

A lovely dog friendly pub with friendly staff and great food! A little off the beaten track but well worth the journey. The open fire and historic atmosphere definitely made us feel cozy in bad weather

A very very good Sunday roast, the beef perfectly cooked, pink, tender, with great flavour. The roast potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle. Nice to see swede and red cabbage as a side, extra gravy not a problem at all. Hawkstone on draught served at the perfect temperature. Kudos to Rob, Sammy, Aimee, Tamica and the team.

My first visit and I have to say the best meal I have eaten in a long time. I thought I'd try the cauliflower as I like to try something different even though I am not a veggie. It was simply delicious in every way...if I could make that I'd definitely become a vegetarian. Can't wait to come back and order it again.

Nice village location and good selection of local beer and international wine. However there is a huge issue with food quality and value. Fish and chips for £21 with a tiny piece of none too fresh hake. I raised will staff who made half hearted excuses. Its a shame as the accompaniments were home made and excellent.

Frozen food straight from a back street supermarket. Ordered the fish and chips tasted and looked like extra large fish finger.Then the bill charged 10% extra for tips.Great place shame about the food .They need to understand they will never be a top quality pub with that type of food (£4 for one Oster) Frozen food.

I don't write many reviews, but felt this experience was too bad not to share. We have heard lots of positive reviews about the pub so decided to book for Easter Monday lunch as one of the few places that was open in the area. We were aware that they were running a reduced menu (advertised as burgers and fried chicken in a basket) but decided to give it a go. What followed was perhaps the worst meal out we have had in the last 10 years. We arrived as a family of 3 shortly after opening to an already chaotic scene with two front of house staff struggling to cope with an already quite busy restaurant. We were shouted to our tabel (3 one on the left) from the chap behind the bar and left to sit for 10 minutes without menu's or a drinks order being offered. Finally drinks were taken and we asked to put through an order of cheese toasty with apple slices from the kids menu for our 11 month year old daughter. A few minutes later after looking over the menu on offer i ordered the chicken and my wife the fish and chips. 40 minutes later we asked the waitress where our daughters cheese toastie might be. She apologised stating that the kitchen was extremely busy as understaffed with only 2 people working, but said she would go and check. after checking the ordering system, she rushed back into the kitchen as it clearly became apparent they had forgotten the order. What appeared from the kitchen some 2/3 minutes later was a sorry attempt, with bread drenched in butter and cold unmelted cheese in the middle of the toastie. This was accompanied by 3 2mm thick slices of apple. We quickly pushed the inedible toastie aside whilst my daughter took all of 1 minute to devour her apple. A further 20 mins later and 1 hour since ordering, our main courses had not arrived. A stern lock of eyes with the waitress sent her scurrying into the kitchen and she appeared shortly with our food. Again what appeared was two further inedible meals. The fried chicken which was meant to be the special of the day was soggy, greasy, cold throughout and lacking any sign that even the most basic of seasoning was used. It really made KFC look like fine dining. The chips that accompanied it raw in the middle. My wife's fish and chips was similarly greasy, with raw chips and missing the mushy pees as advertised. Our entire meal tasted as if it had all been cooked in the same few days old oil that was obviously not at a high enough temperature for deep frying. Unable to eat either we complained to the waiter who seemed unsurprised by our comments and quickly offered to remove the food from the bill. We paid up our remaining balance and made a swift exit. Whilst appreciating staffing can be difficult on a bank holiday, establishments should not open if they are clearly understaffed and unable to offer a decent level of service. Likewise if offering a reduced menu advertised as special then you should be able to execute correctly. A 1 hour wait for 3 different inedible plates of food is unacceptable. We hope to one day try the pub again given its excellent reviews by other patrons, but we foresee that not being for quite a while given how disgusting we all felt after leaving the establishment.

Unbelievable food, great service, fabulous atmosphere. Can’t stop coming here! It’s just wonderful! Sam, Rob and Emily are amazing.

It was my birthday yet an impromptu first visit on the way home. I called to ask if the pub was dog friendly and was told “we are VERY dog friendly”. Was welcomed at the door and despite being busy I was recognised as “you must be the lady who I spoke to earlier”. Arrived late due to traffic and therefore had little time before picking up our children from school. We were recommended the mussels for quickness which were fantastic - huge and so fresh! The staff were so kind and their friendliness felt very genuine, taking an interest in where we were from and my dog. We will be back.

Sunday lunch. Busy, which I think is a good sign with excellent food and hospitality. Looking forward to our next visit.

Arrived on a Saturday night for a table of four. The restaurant was being used by a cricket club event so were seated in the bar which was fine. The menu was fairly limited - sons didn’t like anything on the starter menu and not many choices for main. We waited an age for the starters to arrive which was acknowledged by the waitress (we hadn’t complained about the wait) who had said they were coming soon but the kitchen was busy due to the restaurant capacity. Again waited a very long time for the main course. The food was just ‘okay’, nothing amazing. Husbands beer was rather flat. Had to return a glass of wine which had someone else’s lipstick on it. The bill had a service charge added to it which in general, I would rather make a choice of if to tip/how much. Wasn’t going to make a fuss about that as sons would have been embarrassed. Service was polite enough, nothing stand-out. Sadly, wouldn’t return on this experience.

This has changed ownership since my review in 2019 (which someone has just said was helpful) and its now better than it ever was. Fully recommend for great food and lovely waiting staff.

Great pub. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the puddings. Great service too. Will be back.

We went for a meal with our grown up daughter who has recently moved nearby and were amazed by the friendliness and hospitality which we received. They only had decaffeinated coffee (a delivery was due the next day) and when we ordered two coffees after dinner we weren’t charged. Such a change from businesses that put profit before customer satisfaction. The meals were home made, delicious and very generous portion sizes. We will be visiting here again when we next visit. Thank you to all concerned for a superb evening.

We booked a table for four on a saturday evening and I was pleasantly surprised at how good the evening went. It started with a pint of local real ale and a good choice was available all at reasonable prices. I had the clam chowder starters which was huge and was very tasty and followed it by a very tasty fish and chips. The others in the party all had lovely food including the chicken kievs. We shared a couple of puddings the local Oxfordshire sponge was amazing. The staff were very attentive and friendly. Restored my faith in the English country pub. Good value overall.

Great food, friendly staff, warm welcome. An all round great experience, we went on a Sunday and had the roast chicken and belly pork, both were really tasty, can't recommend enough.

The place to go if want to treat someone (or yourself)! On a fully booked up Thursday evening the staff must have been under pressure, especially with a thirsty cricket crowd arriving after the game! this did not affect the service or standards. I had the Bear burger which is just exceptional with bacon jam and the best chips you can get. The chicken supreme went down a storm on the other side of the table and the kids are always happy with an assortment of board games, fresh food and the comfort and freedom to move around without being made to feel like a nuisance. Thanks to all at The Bear!

We came here unexpectedly, having had to move across the country to avoid a storm that shut down the festival we were attending. We found a campsite and decided to explore Oxfordshire instead. We passed the Bear on the way and decided to book in for dinner. The manager and staff couldn't have been friendlier or more accommodating. The manager was happy to spend time with us chatting about the food and where it all came from (it's predominantly locally sourced). (I also heard him helping a group of ladies behind us who had a number of dietary requirements - he managed to accommodate them all without any trouble). We both ordered a main course and my partner ordered a dessert. Everything was home made from scratch and utterly delicious, also the portion sizes were good without being overwhelming, allowing for a starter (if required) and dessert without making you feel too full. The dessert was an old local recipe; Hollygog pudding- slightly salty sponge soaked in milk and served with delicious egg custard. All in all (along with a couple of pints of well kept ale) it was a super experience and I would recommend anyone to enjoy a meal and a drink at the Bear!

The Bear is a pleasant old pub.It was nearly empty on Saturday lunchtime and we were cheerfully greeted. We both enjoyed our dinner. The rabbit special was a treat.

We’ve been to The Bear many times over the years and we’ve visited a couple of times, recently. I believe that it has, fairly recently, changed hands. We only go for Sunday roast, and The Bear is excellent; Excellent service and excellent food. On our first visit, service was a little slow and staff were apologetic and there was no hesitation to offer complimentary wine, whist we waited. On our second visit, my Yorkshire pudding was a disaster and the staff were, clearly, mortified that something had gone wrong. The above is not a criticism, just an observation that The Bear want to excel at what they’re doing. We’ll definitely be back many more times.

Rob & Sam at The Bear made my colleague and i very welcome for our 1pm working lunch. The pub was buzzing with families and groupd of friends. I was particulaly struck by Rob & Sam's people skills which seems to go a long way in creating a friendly and ambient environment within the pub. We both had the fish pie with cabbage, which proved to be an excellent choice!

I have to say, I’m always sceptical when I read a review for a restaurant that has received a lot of hype. But, the Bear did not disappoint!! The food, service and drinks were nothing short of phenomenal! The scotch egg was on another level, the scratching a were more crackling but either way some of the best I’ve had. The chips were out of this world. The burger and steak were melt in the mouth, prawns were amazing (and I grew up in a family of fishmongers). The house made apple gin…. Wow! We came for my fiancés birthday and they even gave us a glass of Prosecco on the house to celebrate. I often hold back on giving a “perfect rating”, however, well done the team at the Bear- 10/10!! Take a bow

Pleasant village pub, overlooking the cricket ground with great food and a warm welcome. The Brar has been transformed under new management, with a lot of work having gone into the menu, service and building. Well worth a visit.

We dropped in on a Friday lunchtime without booking and the place was busy! A table soon became available and the fish pie and fish and chips were superb. With its low beams and excellent decor and very reasonable prices, local folk are very lucky...

So pleased to have found this lovely gem of a pub by chance. We were away for 1 night in our campervan at the very nearby campsite - St Peter’s Farm - and had noticed the pub on the way in. We planned 1 quick...

Sam and Rob did a fantastic job of hosting a group of 17 of us for a surprise baby shower lunch. The space was perfect, the food 5 stars and the service was spot on. Thank you!

Small menu but the food is delicious. Cooked to order and nicely presented. Fish pie is tasty and fish and chips not too greasy. My only gripe was some of the triple cooked chips were very hard as they cooled down and shattered under my...

We went for a meal on Tuesday evening and the food and service were both excellent. Last time we visited North Moreton the pub was closed but is now under new ownership and they are obviously doing a great job. Really friendly staff - very...

The Bear under new ownership looks to be a winner. An anniversary meal of 3 courses with my wife. The soup starter was a great first course. Then the rib eye steak was the best I’ve have in years. Chips are scrumptious. I passed on...

We all had an excellent meal. All Starters, Mains and desserts were well presented. The landlord was very helpful. Dog Friendly and plenty of parking. Highly Recommend

We went to the The Bear Inn on a Sunday lunchtime. It's a lovely country pub that could easily be missed if you didn't know it was there. The landlord and landlady were very welcoming with fantastic service despite catering for a large group who...

Great food at a good price. Best steak I’ve had in a while. Nice and clean and landlord and lady very helpful for my wife who is a coeliac. Would definitely recommend.

Great little Spot, recommend a visit Friendly staff Good food Stopped off after visiting donkey sanctuary up the road. Had a ladies cricket match playing which was entertaining.

Went to this pub for dinner with my wife after reading that Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton were here in the 60’s. It’s a friendly place with a nice atmosphere and decor. There’s a good range of drinks available. We both ate dinner and we’re...

My husband and I visited this pub after a recommendation and we weren't disappointed. The feel of the dining area is lovely, so cosy and the service is warm and friendly. It was mid week so a little quiet but that didn't put us off,...

Thank you for brilliant service, delicious food and the surprise of a cake for my Dad’s 75th birthday. We had a lovely meal outside in the sunshine, and quick service. We don’t go out very often for meals, but will certainly be back soon to...

3x steak and chips all succulently - and differently done. Time between ordering and eating a bit long but it's a small kitchen. Fine country eatery.

This pub was recommended to us by the owner of where we were staying and an excellent recommendation it was! We ate here two nights and both nights service was top notch, they even remembered our names from the first night! The menu isn't huge...

Will nveer go there again vworst pub I have ever been in. Landlord needs to change his attitude, greet people/payers, such a sad place

First time back since it changed hands 18 months ago. Sunday lunch. I think they prefer to keep the 'bar' tables for drinkers, but the 'restaurant' seems soulless, in the style of a canteen. Ask if you can have a table near the beer engines...

Had lunch here today whilst staying locally with relatives. I had searched online for a venue where we could take our dog too and I am so glad we chose here. Lovely decor and atmosphere, friendly staff, very dog friendly and the food is devine....

I recently spent a week in North Moreton, with the aim to do lots of walking and cycling. Unfortunately, I came across this place called The Bear, which meant that walking and cycling suddenly wasn't my top priority! Great pub, recently refurbished, and John and...

6 people for dinner tues 2/9/20. Bright, light and totally revamped into a modern gastropub. Menu of most of the items you would expect but not targeted at the posh end - definitely for normal humans with no exotic tastes or wallets. Several different dishes,...

I was taken to The Bear for a birthday treat. This is the second time I have been since the management changed. Once again I was not disappointed. Lovely pub, decent staff and excellent food. I had rib eye steak. I dont know who supplies...

visited here on Saturday evening as one of a large birthday celebration. The meals were absolutely lovely. All seemed to be freshly cooked, were all hot and all arrived together, which was incredible for such a large party. The portions, both starter and mains were...

Visited here last night as a large group of 16 for a birthday celebration. On entering the pub I was surprised to see it empty? When the starters come out they all looked amazing! They where all a good size portion too! Then came the...

We used to visit the bear regularly for a roast last year and the year before. There was always a bit of a wait, but well worth it. We returned last Sunday for the first time this year and we were really disappointed. The roast...

We had tried to have 2 meals at the pub, both times unsuccessful as the kitchens were closed (see my previous post) We have had a few drinks at the pub since then but never a meal. Firstly the good points, excellent fish and chips,...

We came is as part of a wedding celebration. Amber is was THE gold standard of service! Great. 10/10.

Not been to The Bear since the new management took over, so unsure what to expect. However, I need not have worried. We all chose roast beef,which was amazing. The roasties were exceptional. Generous portions,good service and lovely pub setting. We will definitely be going...

The food here is beautiful, the portions are more than generous, the staff more than accommodating and helpful but a particular pat on the back has to go to landlady Heather and her expert skills in the kitchen, I am afraid that all other onion...

The 'downward spiral' a previous reviewer mentioned has been stopped. 1 excellent burger, veg and chips, 2 excellent fish and chips. Menu expanded and the wine list is first class. We will go again.

This pub used to be so well run and the food well above average. The change of management was always going to be a challenge to its reputation. However the new team don't appear to be embracing the role. Spend quite a lot of time telling people how hard work it is....how long their day is...while producing very limited below average food.

My ans my fiance don't manage to get out much what with the kids and busy at work etc.. but we did get one evening free last Saturday so we decided to go to the Bear at Home as we have has fantastic food here before in the past. Wow how disappointed were we ..I had the beer battered fish and chips and my partner nas a chicken burger, the batter was soggy underneath and burnt at one end and the chips were pale oven chips that were only just cooked. My partner chicken burger was just as awful. I believe the pub is under new management but why would anyone serve food that bad when starting out ?? Awful is all I can say and it ruined our one rare night out.. I only wish I has refused to pay as it was a waste of £35 !!

Found the Pub by accident while driving from Didcot to Wallingford. They Bear was well signed posted on the main road and we found it within 5 minutes.

We visited for lunch. Usual range of beers on offer but much restricted menu. Food was of high quality but not a lot of choice. Also they have a vivarium of toads just in case you don't like that sort of thing (which we don't)

Great quality food and a firm local favourite. Have had lunch numerous times and visited from when my kids were 3 and 5 and they have loved it ever since. Very friendly service, great pub quality food that is of a high standard. Local beers and ciders on offer are fantastic. We will continue to visit for a long time coming. Highly recommend.

The new landlords John and Heather give you a great welcome and it’s always a pleasure eating and drinking at The Bear. The menu is traditional pub grub very well cooked, the beers are excellent and welcome is always warm and friendly. Home from home!

Fantastic new owner's and very accommodating\freindly and cater to every need. The new temporary menu is superb and the food is massively yummy. Myself and my partner went last night slightly later then arranged and they managed to dish up a top meal for us. Well worh a visit..

WOW great good hospitality superb food and having travelled far what a welcome releaf managed to catch the land Lord and land lady name so thank you John and Heather for looking after me grace and archie will be back next week superb.and a big kiss as well from us Xxxc

New owners at The Bear always welcoming when we've been in for a drink and great to see a village pub saved from being empty and possibly closing. Recently enjoyed hearty home cooked pub grub from the temporary menu, look forward to trying their new menu as they settle in.

The Bear is under new management and the new family seem to be working hard as a team to deliver good beer and food. I live in North Moreton and have eaten there twice and both times the food has been great (nice and hot too). Also warmly welcomed for beer.

We were in the area and were told to try the pub for a Saturday lunch. We were very welcome, the beer was fantastic and the burgers were immense! We came with two little children and we all felt at home. Would go back again for sure.

The new owners have been open for a few weeks but the menu is not exciting and too many dishes were not available, including the all specials some of which were still on the blackboard. The food that was produced after a long wait had was flavourless and the meat tough.

New ownership so as my husband had a lunchtime sandwich and beer a few days after they took over we thought we would give them a try for food. We had already a been in for a couple drinks since they arrived.

I visited the bear today and had a lovely meal and was made very welcome by the new owners who are doing a fantastic job since taking over the food came out very quickly and was absolutely delicious I would highly recommend this to everyone and wish them all the best for their future at the pub I will definitely be back for more

Went to The Bear at Home for an impromptu lunch as we were in the area and because the food on their website looked simply delicious. Sadly, what was served up was way short of that.

We went for one of our monthly meals and were DEVASTATED when we realised it’s under new owners. We still gave it a chance because it was our favourite pub, but sadly we were very disappointed.

A couple of us visited this pub for dinner and we was not disappointed! They are under new management with a new chef and the food was amazing! The portion sizes were perfect and very filling and the garlic bread was one of the best I have ever had! The burger was meaty but not dry and the bun perfectly toasted. We finished off we a large slice of baileys cheesecake which I could not fault and big enough to share! We will definitely Be returning and it’s dog friendly!! 10/10

We often go to The Bear at Home if we fancy the yummiest chicken burger I’ve ever had. The beef burgers are nice, too, and my parents visiting from overseas were equally impressed. Fantastic dessert, if you somehow can find room to indulge! Staff is friendly and attentive. Atmosphere is cozy and quaint. An ideal choice in a lovely little village outside of Didcot.

We ate here mid week with friends and were disppointed having previously read the reviews. First impressions were not good as the state of the entrance doors were appalling and obviously had not been cleaned in a very long time & badly needed a coat or two of varnish. Likewise the windows & windowsill next to where we sat were so dirty that I found myself wondering what the kitchen was like. We arrived at 12:15 pm and appeared to be the first to order lunch but still had quite a long wait which didn't really matter as we were with friends and were not in a hurry. The food was moderate, nothing exceptional. Three ordered fish, chips & peas; each plate having at least half a pound of peas (no exageration) it would have been laughable had it not been so ridiculous. We did comment to the waitress 2 or 3 times about this but it seemed unimportant to her.The fish was huge & would have served 2 people but was difficult to deal with because of the amount of peas on the plate! I had the goat's cheese tart with a side serving of chips of which I only ate a few as they did not look nice & tasted stale as though they were the previous day's heated up. The tart was quite nice but the pastry crust was overcooked. I cannot understand why so many establishments rate themselves good enough to charge over the odds for basic food. I will not be going back.

Had an hours drive to meet a friend here for lunch. It was worth it! A quiet village pub with a lovely atmosphere. The food portions were huge and absolutely delicious. I tried an (Onglet?) steak from the specials board. Never had it before but probably one of the nicest I have ever had. Service from a young girl was good too. Definitely worth a visit...

Stopped by for a Saturday lunch in this lovely old pub. The service was warm and friendly and very efficient. The curry of the day (beef madras) hit the spot with my partner - nicely spiced with good accompanying naan bread, poppadom and chutney and rice. My beef sandwich and coleslaw equally very good with very "quaffable" house wines by the glass. Evidence of the bear everywhere... via paw prints...

The pub catered for 35 of us in their separate dining room. They did a fantastic job of accommodating us, providing really good food and giving great service. Thanks Lucy and team. I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone thinking if having a “Do”. Or just eating to come for a nice meal in a laid back and cosy pub

Great country pub, had a delicious Brie and bacon baguette with chips. Lovely decor and welcoming environment

This pub has a traditional cosy feel (nice log fire) with friendly staff. My family and our dog were made to feel at home and we all enjoyed our meals. The chocolate tart with caramel pistachios and raspberry sorbet was an outstanding dessert which we can not recommend highly enough.

We had a lovely meal with friends tonight. Menu was perfect for lots of meat eaters and vegetarians. Would recommend this cosy country pub for anyone looking for good gastro pub food. Will visit again.

I was taken to The Bear this evening for my birthday and I had the most incredible meal. I had a smoked duck starter that was delicious, and the steak was cooked to perfection. It’s such a warm friendly place and we were made to feel so welcome. Village pubs as good as this are a very rare find, good value and a great atmosphere.

Very little for the non-meat eaters, so went for the seafood linguine.

Went for lunch with my brother and father. First time pushing my father in a wheelchair, the staff were very helpful opening doors for us.

I came here with a friend and we had two of the build your own burgers, they were brilliant! The burger itself was one of the best I have ever tried and the different fillings you could add in is a wonderful idea, food is a good price for what you get, and we were served by a lovely young lady with blonde hair who was one of the best waitresses we have ever had. Would recommend and defiantly go back!

We wanted to celebrate a diamond wedding anniversary so our guests had various demands. The landlord, Patrick was extremely helpful before the day dealing efficiently with our requests for arranging the room and our catering requests. On the day his daughter Lucy and their staff continued being quietly and efficiently helpful.

Service so poor even though pub half empty. Starters were dry (white bait),cheese platter , quiche ok but the rest wasn't worth eating. Mains were lamb, so fatty and undercooked , unedible, sent back.Crumble pie very hard to eat again left, also had some thing not edible in it , was shown to staff and complaints were made .After some haggling, we paid for drinks only. Very dissapointing, always was the place to eat.

We were looking for somewhere in the area to meet up as a family to celebrate my sister's 50th; none of us are local. My dad and I visited The Bear at Home a week ago for Saturday lunch - we were warmly welcomed and had lovely baguettes and chips with so much food that neither of us needed to cook in the evening. Last night 7 of us came back for my sister's Birthday - we had a lovely evening, the food was excellent (4 of us tried a lamb special, 2 had steak and chips and my niece had the burger) with absolutely incredible deserts. The atmosphere is relaxed and all the staff were friendly. If we're in the area again we'd certainly go back. Thank you.

We had a very pleasant meal in this atmospheric pub. The service was attentive and the food very good indeed. We would, based on this visit wholeheartedly recommend The Bear at Home

Called in for lunch at the weekend and decided to try the special salad of the week, octopus and chorizo. Sat outside on the decking in the sunshine looking over the park and cricket pitch we sipped our drinks and waited for our food. The three of us ordered different meals and they arrived after a short wait and we were all pleased with our choices. The ham, egg and chips were substantial and tasty, the scampi and homemade tartar sauce was gobbled up and my salad was brilliant. A large green salad with beetroot and chorizo and baby octopus and a lovely dressing. Very tasty and satisfying, wanted to try the new puddings but couldn't fit it in. We have eaten here several times and the frequently changing menu ensures we are never bored with the food and always look forward to trying the new specials. Another great visit, thanks very much.

Nice friendly village pub with lovely food .. great parking... never had a bad meal here. Try the banana split with banana bread for dessert... yummy!!!

We were meeting somewhere in the middle of Bath and Essex and chose this pub for a catchup and lunch on Saturday. It was the perfect choice!!! They let us in a little early (before they opened) so we could use the loos after the long drive. We had booked a table but advised them the time may change due to our journeys. We ended up sitting outside over looking the cricket pitch and park and we chose to eat there too. Nothing was too much trouble. The staff were all very friendly and the food was fantastic!!! The pub itself is old fashioned but in a good way - there’s load of charm. We loved our day here and want to meet here again.

Called here as a treat for my wife’s birthday lunch and what a let-down. The worn and faded exterior décor should have been a warning of what was to come.

Visited for Sunday lunch to celebrate family birthdays. The welcome was warm and the staff pleasant and efficient. The menu is limited on a Sunday but we all found something we liked and the food was nicely presented, generous portions and very tasty. It’s a dog friendly venue with a park just out the back which meant we could take Paddi for a quick stretch of the paws before we went in to eat. We were visiting son & partner who live locally but we all agreed it was a pub to come back to especially on a warm summer evening. May be when the cricket/ beer is on

Several months ago I'd planned a family get together as a surprise for my Brothers 80th Birthday. Due to unforeseen circumstances I had to cancel it. With problems resolved a few weeks later, we realised we could still go ahead and chose the “Bear at Home, North Moreton” having had several excellent meals there previously.

We had a small family get together/ celebration meal here, the dog was welcome too. Relaxed and friendly atmosphere, great service and lovely food. One of the best chocolate mousses I’ve had in a long time. Sunday lunch menu so less choices than another weekday but still a good selection of food served in filling portions.

Came here to celebrate a friend's birthday.

Called at 3 to book a table arrived at 3.30 and were met by the most relaxed yet efficient staff.

We eat at the Bear 2 or 3 times a month, always good food well cooked and generous portions, staff always friendly and helpful in a relaxed atmosphere.
