Great little country pub with really friendly and attentive staff. A wholesome, home cooked roast - with plenty of sides. The beef was beautifully cooked. Would definitely recommend. Very dog friendly too!

We enjoy going to the Beauchamp Arms for all sorts of reasons.. Great for a quick after work pint, lunch, dinner or a Sunday roast. The owners are always putting on different and interesting events. You can tell they are trying hard and it's nice to go to a pub where there is some energy.

Not what it used to be - items on the menu seem to be 'gilded' so as to justify higher prices. As to drinks in a village pub it seems odd that the emphasis seems to be more on gins than ales, though that could be just me!

The Beauchamp Arms should be voted the most friendliest pub in the UK. The Sunday lunch was superb ,crisp roast potatoes. A large selection of vegetables and an enormous Yorkshire pudding top with beefy gravy. A local folk group playing their accordion’s. Embrace the lovely cosy atmosphere in a proper community country pub with home cooked food. You will get a big welcome.

If you are looking for an authentic country pub with a friendly, welcoming landlord and good pub food then this is the place for you. My wife and I were made extremely welcome and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Great selection of local ales with my favourite being Ledbury Gold. Will certainly return.

This is a friendly village pub that is actually owned by the village! We stopped by half-way round doing our annual the daffodil walk on Easter Sunday. We arrived just before 12.30 as people were coming in for their Sunday roast. We asked for a sandwich and were told it was either beef or pork-we assumed that these were the roasts. We both had beef which was very generously-sliced, succulent and delicious. Sandwiches are nicely presented on plates and sauces, etc were offered. There is a good selection of beers (some local) and a couple of ciders. As I was driving I had a coffee. There are outdoor tables in front of the pub as well as a beer garden behind. This is an idyllic English village pub with the village green adjacent and the church just behind with plenty of free parking either directly in front of the pub, on the road or in the grass field opposite-no problem.

Just what so many pubs are missing these days. A warm welcome and simple tasty food. Excellent beer. It was very busy when we arrived, but the staff are obviously geared up for this. They weren't flustered and they were friendly and efficient. Food was piping hot and very good value for money. Don't be put off by the packed front bar, there is plenty of room behind it.

Having had several very good mid week meals recently, we went for lunch on Sunday and had the most wonderful meal. The roast beef was really good, tender, slightly pink and full of flavour. This was accompanied by severn or eight nice fresh vegetables and a jug of extra gravy. All served on hot plates and dishes by very friendly and polite staff. This was followed by delicious puddings. If we had any slight niggles it would be to wish for sharper knives as those supplied were really well used and rather blunt. All in all we were most pleased with the meal and will definitely become regulars.

Stopped here on Sunday en route to Wales and were greeted really warmly by the bar staff and the locals. We had our ageing staffy with us and he was treated like a rock star by the group of locals sat in the bar! Definitely one of the friendliest pubs we've been to on our travels. On Sundays they on do a roast and it was excellent. Loads of meat, loads of veg and an extra jug of gravy too, all for the bargain price of £12.95. Would definitely stop here again.

Stopped for lunch yesterday at this traditional village pub. We have been here many times over the years and this time we had a sandwich each. Sandwiches come with salad and crisps and all were excellent-the list is on a little blackboard on the bar. There is an extensive list of other meals with something for every taste. This pub has outdoor seating at the front as well as in the garden at the rear and there is parking opposite. We enjoyed a good chat with the friendly landlord.

4 of us had an excellent Sunday lunch here. It is a typical old English country pub, with low is ceilings, fires etc. The pub was busy when we arrived, I’d definitely book a table. The staff were friendly and the pub has a nice feel. We all had roast dinners, Turkey/Beef. They were all really well cooked. With proper crispy roast roast potatoes, the meat on a bed of red cabbage, with a parsnip and Yorkshire pudding. Then came the separate veg bowls. Peas, carrots, cabbage, mashed swede, broccoli and cauliflower cheese and the biggest jug of gravy I’ve ever seen! It was all cooked perfectly, but try as we might, we couldn’t finish all the veg 🙁. the beer was also well kept,which topped off a great meal for an extremely reasonable price. We’ll definitely come back, ever though it will be a detour to get here, it will definitely be worth it!

Arranged to meet two other friends when I was driving back to Cheltenham after taking a Greek friend to Wales and Dymock was the most convenient place to meet. However we had done the same 3 years ago and we all enjoyed the atmosphere of the Beuchamp Arms at that time and wanted to go back again. We found it still as friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere is quite unique for someone from Greece. Two of us had faggots once again and they were as good if not even better than the last time we had t them and two of the party had steak and ale pies which they thought were declicious.A nice relaxing few hours and we had some banter with a couple of people from Dymock and their friend which made us all very happy.Thanks to the friendly waitress and bar staff. The pub is one of the very few pubs in this country owned by the Parish and deserves support.

We visit Dymock once or twice a year and we always stop at this pub. We usually enjoy the daffodil walk in March/April and start in Kempley so that the pub is about half way round. This is a traditional village pub with the village hall next door as are the village green and the church. There is outdoor seating and parking out front overlooking the road as well as a beer garden behind the pub. When we arrived this year it was the Dymock Daffodil Weekend so there were stalls, etc in the village hall and plenty going on. We enjoyed a coffee and cider in the pub. There is plenty of parking in a field over the road from the pub too. We have never had a meal here but looking at the menu there should be something for everyone. Please check the pub's opening times on its website before you visit.

A good little pub. They were busy with walkers but handled everyone well. The faggots, made by the Landlord, who used to be a butcher, were the best I have experienced. My only 'gripe' is the chips served with the faggots were not up to much, and a good mashed potato would have been a better and more appropriate accompaniment. Lovely atmosphere during our visit and excellent well kept beer.

The Beauchamps is a traditional village pub frequented by many locals as well as visitors The pub is right in the centre of this quiet village and is right on the road. There are tables outside the front, so you can watch the comings and goings, or there is a quiet garden out the back with several tables. The pub is next door to the village green and church and has parking directly outside and over the road in a little field. We have visited many times on walks in the area-usually during the time that the wild daffodils are in bloom.

The Beauchamps Arms is a village pub in the corner of Dymock next to the church and features great traditional food. I highly recommend Johns home made steak pie and faggots...not to mention his huge Lemon meringue pie which could feed the 5000! however, it sells out very quickly, so grab it whilst you can. The Sunday roasts are also great and are an extremely good price with generous portions. All the staff are lovely - particular mention to the lovely and welcoming barmaid Hannah!

Its description of a 'village pub that serves food rather than a country restaurant that serves beer' is exactly what this engaging pub is. Owned by the Parish Council the Beauchamp Arms is rare indeed; a village pub that is still the centre of the community yet one that welcomes the many visitors to the area. We stopped by one cold lunchtime in March having made a tour of the daffodil woods and fields that abound in the vicinity of Dymock. Our party of three just opted for a main meal. John's secret recipe faggots lived up to their name but were let down a bit by the frozen chips and peas that accompanied them. A nice creamy mash to soak up the juices would have been preferable. My wife opted for one of John's delicious steak pies which again was good but also let down by the chips and peas. My father-in-law though got it wrong He chose the mixed seafood platter (I think that was how it was described on the menu) which was much more bread than seafood and what seafood there was was obviously poured out from a commercial bag What there was was tasty it was just that there wasn't much there. Prices though are extremely reasonable and perhaps prices could go up a bit to smarten up the rather shabby decor and seats.Excellent range of local beers on offer and service and welcome was excellent. Fine dining this pub isn't but good local pub food it is.

On a gloriously sunny March morning we decided to drive to the pretty Gloucestershire village of Dymock to have a pub lunch and then do the 'Daffodil Walk'.We were made very welcome at The Beauchamp Arms where there is ample car-parking at the front. There was a good range of reasonably priced meals which were freshly cooked to order.The ale was excellent, and we enjoyed our breaded plaice which came with really good chips, perfectly cooked. This was well served with a small green salad and peas and it all tasted deliciousThe Daffodil Way is part of the 'Golden Triangle' made up of three villages - Dymock, Kempley and Oxenhall - beautifully produced walk guides are available in the churches where coffees and teas are served by local volunteers. 2017 has been an excellent year for the daffodils because of the warm spring weather.The whole day was a delight and I recommend the lunch, walk and refreshing tea in St. Mary's Church, Dymock as a very happy and memorable day out.

We visited as a highlight to our 10 mile Daffodil Walk. We were looking forward to visiting this parish owned place as we had heard about the village ownership of this little pub. Reviews suggest that this is a good place for food... we were saddened to experience really lack lustre over-priced fare. I had the cheddar ploughmans lunch: huge slab of tasteless rubbery cheese that had no resemblance to a good cheddar served on a limp and unimpressive salad of iceberg lettuce 3 slices of tomato, some red onion and cucumber. The addition of pickle and slices of bread did nothing to elevate this sad plate of food and at almost £9 I felt robbed!My partner had the faggots and chips: the verdict, the faggots were tasty but only two of them served with chips which were horrible mass catering fried frozen thick cut...The beer was mediocre, not kept well, or served out of unclean pipes... urgh! We will not be back

As a CAMRA member it’s great to see the framed plaque by the fireplace proclaiming that the villagers of Dymock became the owners of the pub on 9th June 1997 when they bought it to ensure it’s continuance as a drinking and eating establishment.I’ve never visited this pub and found it empty; it’s always got masses of people drinking and enjoying the excellent freshly cooked food. John, the ex-Butcher behind the bar makes some fantastic faggots to as Black Country recipe and the day we visited he’d just done as lemon meringue pie, the portions of which were as large as the iceberg that sank the Titanic! And the slice (with ice cream) we shared went down just a quickly. We always visit around the 2nd to 4th week of March to see the wonderful display of wild daffodils in the area, usually doing the 8 mile Poets’ Path 1 as a circular from Redmarley D’Abitot. You could park and walk from Dymock but then you wouldn’t have a pub to stop in at lunchtime!

My Drama group from Cardiff were last here 16/11/15 (see great review) and they say never go back after a great experience. But we did last Sunday after finding the excuse as proud Welsh people to come out of Wales to Dymock to see the wonderful display across the fields and hedgerows of wild daffodils. The locals thought it very strange leaving Wales to see daffodils! But we really came for the food and warmth of hospitality in this wonderful village pub who's motto is " A good village pub that serves good food rather than a country restaurant that also does beer".As last time we had a wonderful Sunday lunch Beef, pork and beef and pork combined, gee the pork was nice and super stuffing, also great variety of veg, piping hot and with loads of flavour and at £8.95 great value.Puddings at £4 - ladies said these were wonderful and two great real ales on tap for the boys. Wonderful service and atmosphere - oh we wish it was closer to |Cardiff.To Linda and her great team many thanks and we hope to come again one day!

This is a well patronised inn with a generally welcoming ambiance. The young lady serving at the bar was friendly, courteous, and knowledgeable about food allergies. The ham, egg and chips served to us was faultless. The chips, chunky and crisp, the eggs fried lightly with the yolks still soft, and the hand sliced ham, thick, lean, tender and plentiful - a proper lunchtime repast! Yet another pub we have visited that could well be used as a bench mark for many far more pretentious establishments that fall well below the mark. Well done the Beauchamp Arms!

Visited specifically to try the Faggots and it was well worth the effort. All the meals from the menu were very good but the Faggots were exceptional. We will definitely be stopping here again on the journey from Gloucester to Hereford. Everything about the experience leads me to recommend the Beauchamp, excellent food, great beer and first class service.

Been to this pub loads of the years , love it, the Sunday menu is simple, pork or beef or er mixed! You get loads of food, loads of good service and loads of people on a Sunday so best to book! Great puds too, we love the sticky toffee pudding, if you have the room!Johns home made steak and ale pie is a winner mid week too!

Had an excellent meal in this pub last night. Proper home cooking - I had steak pie and chips, couldn't fault it. Then the pudding board arrived..... Apple pie and plenty of custard - excellent again.Prices are reasonable, service was friendly and attentive, even though 20 of us descended on the pub at the same time.A proper village pub.

Travelling from Somerset to Shropshire we happened upon this fine pub. Our Beagle was welcomed and even given a little ham! She wants to return..Only had coffee/tea but it was provided efficiently and both staff and patrons were kind and welcoming.Exceptionally this pub is owned by the community having been brought by the Parish Council - an idea more villages could follow if they can be this successful.

Stopping a few miles away so thought would give it a try. Warm welcome from the landlord got our drinks and menus. Varied choice of your typical pub food and all very reasonably priced with a further few options on the specials board. My wife went for the steak pie and I a sirloin, both arrived piping hot and nicely presented, not sure it's a southern thing but frozen chips again, doesn't anybody in this part of the country make homemade chips ? Is it only Yorkshire ? My wife had Treacle sponge with custard which she said was very nice. Only other criticism tables needed a good clean very sticky. Would we go again yes, nice pub serving well priced traditional Pub Grub

We attend a wedding at Dymock Church as we were hired to take a Bride and her Father to the Church with our shire horses and whilst waiting for the wedding to take place we thought that we would have a well earned drink on a very hot day as we were waiting outside the Beauchamp Arms.Although the pub was closed the landlady still offered to open up and serve us our well earned pint ! this we thought was being very helpful and giving a very good service as nothing seemed to be too much trouble for the landlady or the staff .I am hoping to visit again very soon as I would strongly recommend any one to take a visit. I have since heard that the food is good too not forgetting the lovely show of hanging baskets outside the pub. Thank you for your kindness .

A village owned pub, managed by a very friendly couple and their staff.We went to the BA on the recommendation of the cottage owners where we were staying. Trad Sunday lunch is the only choice, but the place is packed out and local and not so local people regularly travel there for lunch on Sundays.The food was very homely, the company extremely friendly and staff extremely helpful. If you enjoy a trad lunch ensure you book - non bookers often turned away, no room!

We called by on Wednesday evening and decided after a drink to partake in an evening meal. It was lovely to see a busy village pub, that's obviously support well by the locals. The pub area is full of character and has a lovely beamed bar area. For myself I ordered homemade faggots and my husband had one of the steak pies. I cannot fault the food and service. The chips were crispy with a lovely fluffy inside. The pub was extremely busy by mid evening, but the staff service was faultless. We will definitely return in the very near future.

On the evening of saturday 9th july we came across this wonderful little pub. We arrived after 9pm but the owners were more than happy to keep the kitchen open and serve us. We ordered a gammon steak with free range eggs and a ham salad. The meals arrived without delay and they were wonderfully presented. The gammon and ham both tasted beautiful and the homemade fresh bread was some of the best i've ever had. Well worth a visit and thank you to the two wonderful young waitresses who looked after us.

We have passed this inn several times,there are always plenty of cars parked outside and across the road,as parking is a bit of a problem.My husband suggested we called in sometime for a meal as it seemed a popular place.We checked the webb site which shows the inn provides local produce,genuine homecooking,and flavoursome,wholesome food.We read the reviews which overall give a good impression of the place.So on Tuesday 19/7/16 we went for our evening meal,arriving about 6.50pm.There is a very small dining area next to the bar,and also a garden area which we did not see.The bar was busy and obviously full of locals,there were 3 other people besides ourselves in the dining area,but later more diners arrived.I ordered prawn cocktail and chicken diane,my husband ordered garlic mushrooms in cream sauce,and Johns delicious steak pie.Quite a time lapsed before we were served which we thought indicated the food was all cooked to order,which was a good sign.Very Sorry we were very disappointed when the order arrived Prawn cocktail was on a fresh lettuce base with 2 wedges of tomato and cucumder,but the "prawns" were disgusting,they were like shrimps and appear to have been defrosted in a micro wave,which produced a mushy lump which was tasteless,and there was no sign of a sauce.Garlic mushrooms a few slices swimming in a soup like sauce which was impossible to eat with knife and fork supplied.The only good part was the fresh brown bread on both starters. By this time we realised we had made a serious mistake but too late.Chicken served with nice fresh small salad,and frozen chips,the chicken was luke warm and dry,covered in a strong salty diane?sauce.Sorry not to my liking and left the food.My husbands pie was served with frozen chips and peas,but the pie crust was so hard he had to "hack"into it to get to the meat underneath which he said was reasonable.My hushand commented if he had eaten any of the pastry he would have been taking a well known indigestion liquid for a month.The waitress asked if everything had been okay,I said it had been terrible,but that was obvious from the amount of uneaten food.We deceided to just leave and were very disappointed in the whole meal.Lager and beer okay.We consider the webb site gives a totally false impression,the food may be cooked on the premises but frozen food is not our idea of genuine homecooking.Also it was neither flavoursome or wholesome.£30 plus was not cheap.I said It must be us in the title as we expected much more from this visit in view of webb site and previous reviews,perhaps we went on a bad night?????

Can't recommend Sunday lunch at the Beauchamp Arms highly enough. We were given the choice of beef, pork or a mixture of both. Very generous portions served with plenty of fresh vegetables and all the trimmings. Absolutely delicious, genuinely home cooked food and very good value for money. Great choice of puddings too and the service was excellent. Can't wait for our next visit!

We stopped for lunch half-way round the 8 mile Daffodil Way path, having parked at Kempley. Really good beer, excellent pies, and reasonable prices. Very friendly staff.

Called here whilst doing The Daffodil Drive, which is an incredible experience. Have never before seen carpets of daffodils!Warmly welcomed and given menus to choose from as well as two specials. We were spoiled for choice and it was hard to make a final choice. Both had steak pies. These were very big and an example of good home cooking. Do ask for a spoon to eat up all the delicious thick gravy. The steak was tender and plenty of it. Again it was hard to decide which dessert to choose from many favourites. Good lemon cheesecake and creamy ice cream. Would definitely visit again if in the area. Village owns the pub and it is, as they say, a pub that serves food and not a restaurant that serves beer. Probably what many of us are looking for. All staff very pleasant and welcoming.

What a lovely pub, we were made to feel very welcome. It was comfortable and the beer was very good. Food was certainly above average for a pub, my homemade faggots were first rate. Will most certainly visit again next time we stay in Dymock.

This pub is owned by the local village, but run by Linda and John Griffiths. They have an achievable menu full of tasty dishes. Home made fish pie, home made secret recipe faggots, lasagnes, succulent home cooked ham eggs and chips. What's not to like. A hearty log fire, warm and friendly decor. Helpful and friendly staff . An unusually good Sunday roast every week. Do try the home baked Lemon meringue pie, you will need to be quick. It's very popular. Good beers and wines too. The heart and soul of a dynamic village .

I arrived in the dark on my own after problems with my car. A light on the dashboard hadsuddenly glowed red and a notice read 'ENGINE HIGH TEMPERATURE' ... i was on a narrow road in the dark and thought the engine was about to blow up !By the time I reached the BEAUCHAMP ARMS pub which I had never before visited, I was quite frightened.The very kind, friendly landlord, John, was just brilliant ... `he helped to solve the problem and was so reassuring ... so were all the visiting guests ... it really is "the friendliest pub in England" and we stayed to eat delicious food! Thank you !

Visited dymock last saturday to view a house in the village to buy. I am so glad we popped into the local pub. Every one and i mean everyone was so friendly.The landlady,bar staff and locals. We had a coffee and decided to stop for lunch, home made faggots , gorgeous. You must visit the pub to see a real community pub and feel the warmth from a welcome open fire and local people.

Thoroughly enjoyable family meal. Excellent roast beef and turkey and plenty of it. I also enjoyed a couple of pints of well kept bitter. Couple this to very welcoming and friendly staff who provide prompt service and you can't go wrong here. Oh, I should also recommend the home made Sticky Toffee Pudding, a real treat.

At £8.50 the Sunday roast lunch was excellent value. There were five different boiled veg, two types of roast veg, and the generous slices of beef were topped of with a crispy Yorkshire, and good hot gravy. The beer was good, and the atmosphere pleasant. A really nice pub.

My Drama group is doing a play on poet Edward Thomas and his relationship especially with Robert Frost when they and several other famous poets lived and met up in 1914 of all places in the beautiful countryside around the small Gloucestershire village of Dymock. We did a “bracing” Sunday morning “educational” walk around several of their homes, still much unchanged and the wonderful exhibition ‘on the Dymock Poets’ in the local church.Seventeen of us cold and hungry then descended on the Beauchamp Arms. I had originally booked a table of 12 with Proprietor Linda and this was upped to 17 on the Friday night. Speaking to her several times on the phone prior to our visit at all times it was “no problem, don’t worry etc”. As organiser of an event or outing you have high expectations and on behalf of your friends, you want it to be good and hope everybody has a great time. Wonderful to say this time all expectations were not only met but really exceeded. Lovely warm welcome, open log fire and a wonderful pint of Butcombe Bitter on tap. We had our own separate dining room just off the lounge and our pre ordered lunches of Pork, Beef or beef and pork mixed soon arrived piping hot! They were just what we wanted! Tasty plenty of fine meat, lovely roast and vegetables and gravy, really good portions and at £8.50 excellent value. Then those that wanted had a nice choice of puddings at £4 each, (they do not do starters on a Sunday.)We blokes had several thoroughly enjoyable pints and the ladies tucked into puddings. The service was great and Linda and her team of ladies made us very welcome. All of us had a very pleasant few hours far away from home in Cardiff. I am sure many of us will seek out the splendid Beauchamp Arms again, probably in the spring when the daffodils are said to be fabulous around the area.

We were staying at the Three Choirs Vineyard, but stopped here en route as we were early...and hungry.A proper village pub indeed. The hosts 'John and Linda' are friendly, welcoming and knowledgable about the area. The pub is cosy and original. The lunchtime food was well worth the money, cooked well, piping hot, and served with a genuine smile.I gather the pub is owned by the local parish. They certainly make visitors feel welcome.Definitely well worth stopping by here if you want an honest home cooked pub meal. You won't be dissapointed.
