I think this is the first time Jorvic and Paulicarus have had a pint of Hooky bitter from Hook Norton brewery. It is a while since I've drunk it. One of the few long standing family brewers left in the UK. Good sunny rear beer garden. Open plan interior. The rear part of the room is cosier. Full range of their beers. Pint of Hooky and a pint of Madri £10.95. I think food only available Sunday. Sunday roast £13, served 12 - 4. Lots of live music. Toilets upstairs but accessible one down at end of bar. In Good Beer Guide and a Cask Marque. I suspect I would have preferred the ambience of the old multi room pub.

In a small alleyway, this pub - owned by a local brewery - is nicely furnished and the beers that we had - the IPA and stout - were tasty. We just missed their daily offer of two cocktails for the price of one after which the place soon emptied !

What an amazing evening! The FABULOUS staff at The Coach and Horses helped me to pull off THE BEST 60th surprise birthday party for my partner last Friday. A private area for our family and friends. The talented staff presented us with a gorgeous Greek Mezze, DJ Birch played all our favourite tunes and the staff couldn't have done enough for us. We laughed, chatted and danced the night away. Memories made after a few tough months for our family. THANK YOU XX 💕

Called in on the off chance, as we were told they have a selection of ale's. Upon arriving the door person's were friendly and reassuring, Was pleased with the selection of ale's, would of liked the beer to of held it's head a bit longer. That evening there was a live band, they made it a better evening in the pub.

Just, if the perfect pub exists, then this is it. A grand selection of drinks, on draught and spirits. Staff that welcome you on entry and more importantly, make time to say goodbye when you leave. They invent their own cocktails, they have time for you to chat, laugh or just to lend an ear for your woes. Live music most Saturdays. Beautiful people beautiful pub. Everyone is welcome.

In need of some proper British pub food, I and 2 friends patronized this place this evening and it did not disappoint! Albeit it was early in the evening it was quiet, which was what we wanted. Staff is super friendly, attentive, and just well really cool people. My steak n ale pie was on point, just what I was looking for, and my mates' meals' looked equally good. At the end, they even honored a discount that had been expired for quite some time (so long they didn't even remember it was a thing). They didn't have to do that, but did, so that's a huge thanks from me on that one. Food, excellent Service, superb Atmosphere, great. Intangibles, well amazing. In town only a short time, so lots of other places to explore, but given the chance, I'd definitely hit this place up again.

Overpriced and if you are not Ingerlish the landlord will have a derogatory story to tell about your country.

We made a late booking for a table, we had seen an offer for Steak and chip with fizz for two for £30. We arrived early and enjoyed cocktails at the bar, we watched them being made by Tom, very impressive! We chose a table at the back of the restaurant for our meal with a view into the garden. Our food arrived quickly , as did the fizz. The steaks were small, which we expected for the price, and they were cooked perfectly. The hand made chips and peppercorn sauce were delicious too. Tom was a great host, he was engaging and attentive, ensuring everything was as it should be. He chatted about the chef and suggested that we try his specials, which we will return for. He also recommended a delicious dessert - lemon tart which we enjoyed. We ended the evening back in the bar with cocktails, there was a lovely atmosphere and Tom still checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. Excellent service!! We had a lovely time and great food, we will definitely be returning.

If you're looking for great food and the best beer (Hook Norton) then this is the place for you. It's inexpensive, clean, welcoming and has great staff. We went on a Saturday lunch time. A little over £60.00 for five mains, two beers and a Coke (we had more drinks but they weren't on our table bill) We had the burger, chicken and bacon sandwich, chicken Schnitzel, tofish and chips and a curry. They have five Hooky cask ales on. Great choice. Watch out for the 172 Gold. 7.2% is a bit punchy for lunchtime.
