The Crown inn in Cotswold - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Initially loved the look of this place. Room was fine apart from the toilet. If you flushed it once it would not flush again for at least an hour. Booked dinner with our dog. Seating very tired and stained and so dusty. I ordered sirloin my hubby ordered fish n chips. I did not receive sirloin. I received three ‘slices’ of fatty, tough cheap carvery beef. My veg couldn’t be cut it was so hard. My hubby’s batter had obviously been forgotten it was so overcooked. We hadn’t eaten in over eight hours so he ate his. Mine was inedible. I complained and I was offered a replacement meal. I was too tired as our journey had taken all day. Breakfast was a contrast and lovely. Hubby had full English, I had smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. Lovely. We came to pay. They were aware of the toilet. I was told there was a plumbing problem they were trying to rectify and they said the bill for food was void. Which was fair. Would I return. No.

A very delicious Sunday lunch followed by a heavenly sticky toffee pudding! The service was great. Staff were friendly. It was reasonably priced!

We were recommended to this pub and it certainly lived up to expectations. Lovely and cosy with all fires lit so we were able to relax. The staff were well informed and super friendly. Our starters of scallops and fishcake were really excellent and a good portion size, with real attention to detail. Mains of fillet of brill and lamb suet pudding were really good. The only thing I would say is it would be great if chef would put less salt in the mash and check other sauces and gravies. When the ingredients are good and the chef knows how to cook, it is essential to cut down on salt.

We were staying in one of their lovely rooms so ate here as the food looked good and it did not disappoint. We had the homemade burger which was moist and obviously fresh. My wife really enjoyed the spiced monkfish. She then had a lovely rhubarb crumble with loads of custard whilst I enjoyed my Espresso Creme Brulee. We can recommend the malbec and there is a great selection of local real ales, all perfectly kept. Good coffee too !

Great meal for 6 of us, all very well cooked - we had a range of meals - burgers, fishcakes, mushroom and lentil pie, venison -plus a starter to share and a couple of desserts -everything was tasty, well presented and good value for money. Staff were friendly and attentive - we will definitely be back!

Fabulous stay at this archetypal English pub/ hotel. Sitting in the sun overlooking beautiful views with sheep in the fields was like paradise. Bar snacks and restaurant food were excellent with a fine selection of ales. Comfy spacious rooms with generous tea and biscuits and a lovely cooked breakfast using locally sourced ingredients rounded off a perfect stay. We will definitely stay there again

Had several meals here whilst visiting family in the area. Always exceptionally obliging , bringing children meals first and finding a table that will accommodate dogs etc. Food always delicious and staff friendly and helpful

Fantastic boutique hotel with lovely pub and beautiful terrace outdoors. Very attentive service, very good breakfast included. Nice room size, very good bathroom. Very clean. Nice cookies in the room. Convenient parking. Lovely views. Great location to enjoy the area. To come back for sure.

When we booked two weeks at a nearby holiday cottage, we had high hopes for The Crown. On our second day, we decided to go for lunch, and hope that it would become “our local”. We felt we won the jackpot with this gem of a place. Great food, friendly fast service, wonderful ambiance (the fire being appreciated one cool, spring day). We repeated out visits five or six times, sometimes on a walk, enjoying lunches and Sunday roast. Nice large parking lot, for the one day we drove. We sampled the fish and chips, sole, burger and for Sunday roast the pork. All delicious, as well as the desserts. Beautiful locale with views. Lovely beer garden.

Lovely old country pub. Nice, welcoming friendly staff. Food, not so good…I had the fish and chips…sorry to say it wasn’t very nice. The chips were pale and undercooked…needed double frying for extra crispness. The fish in batter didn’t have any taste at all and the few peas were dried up and weren’t really mushy peas. Quite expensive too for the amount I had to leave and couldn’t eat. :(

Having not visited for a couple of years, I was looking forward to the evening. However the experience was marred by a very disruptive group of Londoners and their three dogs. Obnoxious, doesn't come close. their loud arrogant behaviour was almost too much to bear. A charming couple who were staying at the Crown made it claer to us - they not be eating in the bar again. The food prices have been increased and the quality was. Lamb chops should not be just fat!! I will be not visiting in the near future.

Good food and lovely ambience. It’s not far from where we live and we often enjoy visiting. Open fires and dog friendly too.

Great atmosphere and the staff were really on the ball. Greeted on entry and quickly seated with drinks. Food was exceptional. A lovely country pub.

Found this lovely pub while out on a walk on a beautiful perfect sunny day had some lovely food and drinks outside. Just Perfect.

The Crown Inn is a traditional rustic cotswold pub/inn with good tasty beer and honest quality food. On the day we both had the fish & chips, although the portions were not large the food was very good. We sat outside and it was great, however, I would like to return on another day and have a two or three course dinner inside.

Such a lovely place, in a lovely location with lovely staff. This was just an overnight stay to catch up with friends from Stoke-on-Trent, as they were staying for 4 nights. We had a wonderful catch up, fantastic meal, a few light libations and a good nights sleep followed by a great breakfast. Yes, not everyhting is to everyone's tatse or preference, but go with the flow, this is just a LOVELY place!

A very welcome local beer after a warm walk. Fresh fish of the day was an excellent coley fillet. Pleasant waitresses coped well with Covid regs Thank you

What a real pleasure... this place has it sorted even in the hardest of times with social distancing etc. We eat three times, twice during eat out to help out and once afterwards. All were equally good. The title says it all but I should expand with some detail. It really is one of the sunniest evening spots I know of to enjoy the evening light over a beer or indeed a meal in the garden which has ample space to allow a large number of people to sit at the bench tables whilst still respecting social distancing. We were served by a few different staff members over the three meals and all were charming, attentive and totally get the way to put their guests at ease and make them feel valued. Very professional . 5* on that front. The chef is certainly one of the best in any pub I know of and seems to have a fondness for fish which suits me very well. Always fresh, plenty of variation, generous portion sizes and very well prepared and seasoned. We love eating out and only return 'home' to this area every couple of months but this place is definitely at the top of my list for a meal, either with my wife or en famille. Should also add that the beer is good and the prices are perfectly fair for what is on offer. Excellent all round... please keep it up and we will be back and will have no hesitation recommending to others. Thank you!!

Thanks to all the staff at the Crown for making our visit feel rather special. Our fish dishes were excellent but most importantly we were highly impressed by the attitude of the pleasant and well informed staff who were rushed off their feet but still made time to make us feel very welcome. You do the owners great credit and I'm sure they appreciate you. An enjoyable meal in a great pub in a wonderful location, cheers!

We had a lovely evening meal last night at The Crown, the Steak was beautiful and the chips were amazing! Lovely location, beautiful views and the staff couldn’t have been more friendly and welcoming! Made all the more atmospheric by the thunder rolling around the valley

We've been blessed with a sunny summer, so it was time for a drive around the glorious Cotswolds! Having visited Rodborough Common (stunning!) we headed towards home and happened on yet another pretty village, Frampton Mansell. Let's see if we can get fed in this pretty looking pub, we thought. Inspite of us not having a dog (the pub garden was doggie heaven!), we found table for two, where we sat admiring the fabulous views. My whole sole was served with the sweetest toms on the vine and was fabulous. Hubby had a huge ploughman's. Absolutely idyllic English summer's evening in a quintessentially English pub garden! The staff were delightful. Perfect and thank you!

We hadn't been to the Crown for three or four years, so joined friends there for Saturday lunch. The food was good, although I felt the vegetable portions on the venison was a bit on the small side, However, all the food was very well cooked and they had a particularly good specials board. There was a very limited choice of dessert and the only one any of us were about to choose was sold out, so unfortunately they lost thos sales!!

Lovely place just a few minutes from home, my home from home really. Dog friendly and perfect as the nights draw in. Great ales and food.

Great traditional pub with fantastic seating outside and in. The view of the sunset is the best and would very much recommend attending around sundown. The food they offer is great and very lovely variety. All staff are friendly and helpful. Great place to sit and have a few pints after a walk with the doggies.

The Crown Inn, Frampton Mansell is a beautiful traditional old English pub set in the Cotswolds. The staff are very welcoming and the food is very good, especially the full English breakfast. Our room was comfortable and adequate for our one night stay although the bathroom could do with a little TLC. Would we go back? Definitely!

We walked to the pub the local ales provided were very good. The menu was varied. We ordered the sausage (pork and black pudding) with caramalised onion with real potato and apple mash and a starter of salad, ham hock and bacon with a dressing. Good portions. We sat outside and watched the sun go down, replete and happy. Staff very welcoming and friendly, service swift.

I use to stay in this pub/hotel many times 25+ years ago. Really happy to go back as I’ve so many happy memories. The food beer setting and staff were excellent. Unfortunately the room was a let down. To be specific, the ‘shower’ was a feeble disgrace, I had to virtually run round to get moist !!!! I mentioned this on checkout to be told there have been loads of complaints but the owners won’t pay for the improvements. Very sad for the guests and the EXCELLENT staff who have to listen to these complaints

The village is not on the main road! The pub is set apart from the village housing and the gardens have a wonderful view of a wooded valley. The food is good and pleasantly served at a modern but not excessive price.

We visited The Crown Inn three times during our stay at nearby Westley Farm. The food and beverages were excellent, the service good and the atmosphere charming. We would definitely recommend it.

A great country pub - great atmosphere, beer, wine and food. Last time we went I had fish finger sadwich with a side of chips - what's not to like!

Booked late and got a table for eight.Service excellent, Food on the whole tasty .I can only speak for myself ,had chicken stuffed with spinach and asparagus, not too much spinach or asparagus.But tasty

An evening meal with family with a great choice of food. A real old pub with good food and real ale......what could be better.

This is one of our favourite local pubs and we make a special trip to come to it. It is a lovely old building with lots of character and an open fire. It is very dog friendly and they are very welcoming to our two large hounds. The food is always good but the specials menu is excellent and any fish dishes on the specials menu are outstanding. Their chef decides what to do on the day depending on what fresh fish he has and how he fancies cooking it. The beer is also very good with a good choice of 3 or 4 good beers. Highly recommended.

We had another excellent evening at the Crown with friendly service, good beer and really nice food.Nice atmosphere too.

The Crown has never let us down. Whether for lunch, dinner, friends staying the night or for Sunday lunch which we just tried this past weekend, the Crown is always exceptional. They have a solid choice of food for all dietary requirements and are flexible to the customer's needs. Their Sunday lunch must be very popular as it was rammed and now we understand why. I loved their cauliflower steak with mushroom fricassee option (so rare to find exciting vegan options in country pubs) and hope they keep it on their menu! The roasts were great as their meaty dishes always are. We are so lucky to have this close to home and are already planning our next Sunday visit.

Stay here every year and the meal in the evening is one of the main attractions. The bar area has great character, the service is excellent, a wide variety of beers on draught and in bottle and the food is good, gastropub fare.

An excellent meal served up in a true British pub. Quite small, so booking is advised but a countryside gem of a place.

We visited The Crown numerous times during our New Year break. It was always fully booked but the staff always tried hard to squeeze us in somewhere. The beer selection is very good, and the food excellent. Numerous roaring fires to warm up after a walk, and dogs very welcome.

If I’d known they had accommodation this good I could have saved a whole load of hassle! Yes, we stayed at the Westley Farm and yes we didn’t know it’s under new management.

My wife and I dined here while staying for one night on 9 Jun 2018 during our three week tour of Scotland and England. We had been here in May 2017 during our tour then and liked the accommodations and food enough for a return visit in 2018.

We were recommended this pub and it was warm , friendly and very relaxed . Food came promptly and was well presented by friendly staff

We had the nibbles to share to start - a very beige dish and not presented well at all. For a main I had the veggie burger - it was just mushed up beetroot in a cheap burger bun. No garnish or seasoning whatsoever. The root vegetable chips weren’t nice either - burnt and cold. And I’m not normally hard to please with food! A burger isn’t hard to get wrong, surely. The staff were lovely but so slow - forgot half our drinks and forgot to bring high chairs when asked twice. Service took 3 hours for 3 couples with a main each and a couple of starters and desserts shared. It’s a shame because we were hoping it would be better than this.

Stayed here one night, lovely location and without easy driving distance to some great Cotswold villages. Good bar menu at reasonable prices. £10ave, had a great specials board with lots of fish options. Scallop starter was fabulous. A bit noisy with four legged guests but expected given location. A fantastic breakfast-old spot sausage was excellent. Good value place to stay and eat.

Staff were all very helpful and pleasant. Quiet and peaceful location. Nice pub. On the downside: Creaky bed - Food in restaurant was rather bland, Lamb and fish were nice but the accompaniments were lacking flavour, for the price paid i would expect better.

Lovely food from the specials board; well cooked and well presented. A bit dodgy with the bread pudding though - not mosit nad gooey like it should be.

Worst ever bread and butter pudding, solid, heavy, cold slab of bread; fish and chips bland with mushy peas simply crushed ordinary peas; lamb ok but odd combination on plate Go for a drink which is lovely , avoid eating there

A large group of us, 16 people, descended on The Crown Inn at short notice and they coped admirably and we had a lovely lunch in the garden. Best dish was a very good burger with bacon and cheese, plus excellent chips. Terrific service from a great and friendly team.

I love it here, and have been many times. There burgers are lovely and taste wonderful. There Sunday lunches are varied and plentiful, more gravy on request. Views are phenomenal and a large quiet garden. Nice choice of beers and ciders. Staff are friendly and welcoming. A must do place to visit.

We stayed there for lunch and were very satisfied with the burger‘s and steaks. Very nice to sit outside and enjoy the Time.

We were looking forward to dinner at this pretty pub but were really disappointed. My husband had a burger and chips which is hard to get wrong but the chips were the worst we’ve had in a long time. I had the spinach and ricotta cannelloni. Shouldn’t be hard to make. Very ordinary cannelloni covered with cold ratatouille served on a cold plate. It’s a dish I have often and this was the worst I’ve ever had. We certainly won’t return.

Brilliant Evening to celebrate a significant birthday for 19 aged 5 to 70+ - Staff were brilliant in keeping everyone happt

We had a wonderful stay. Staff couldn't be friendlier and the food was amazing. Will defiantly return. Thank you everyone for making us feel so welcome

Went here Saturday lunchtime with a group of 12. The service and the food was excellent. Lovely pub with great views.

A group of friends met for lunch at The Crown Inn at Frampton Mansell and I absolutely loved the my beef burger. Well seasoned and not over cooked. Chunky chips also good. Staff all very well presented and bright. My partner's lamb stew gorgeously tender. I think this would be a lovely place to return to in sunny weather, the Crown is tucked away in a valley of character and leafy lanes, with the odd horse or two passing by. Oodles of old charm inside. Ample parking.

Really enjoyed a meal at The Crown recently, I had the fish which was excellent. Would highly recommend. Good atmosphere and friendly staff.

Went here on one of our usual trips to The Cotswolds and loved it. It's what I would call a traditional Cotswold pub with good food to match as well as the friendly welcome on arrival. Would certainly recommend a visit.

Have been eating ad drinking here for years and it just keeps improving ! Had mid afternoon lunch and drinks here on Boxing Day. Great warm atmosphere, superb friendly service and great food in an outstanding Cotswold location. Love it !👍

Went again to give them a second chance. However it was terrible again. The food was cold and lacked taste. Defo will not go there again. However service was more acceptable this time. It's such a shame it's so rubbish. It's such a lovely place.

Good local beer, nice friendly staff, roast dinner for family that was very reasonably priced big portions - nice pub

First visit for many years, it’s a lovely traditional pub inside. Thick stone walls and lots of candles everywhere however a bit chilly, and not buzzing with people. We had a sandwich & a baguette, the fillings were delicious, however the bread for the sandwich...

Tripped over this fantastic pub by accident, having taken a detour when returning home from Cirencester.

Delicious meal. Pâté and soup delicious. Burger very tasty! Curried lamb shepherds pie with sweet potato topping was out of this world as was the crumble dessert. Choice of drinks very good with some local brews. Staff very attentive. All in all a very nice meal! Would definitely recommend.

Lovely atmosphere, very friendly with great food! Dogs welcome and tired walkers too. The rooms are great too, very comfortable.

Lovely meal from a comprehensive menu. Staff friendly and happy :-) Steak was gooood. Burgers went down a treat. Lovely and cosy. Friendly other diners and a relaxed atmosphere. Good beer. Easy to park and lots of local walks. Will be back again especially once the open fires are on. Very good specials board with some seasonal and exciting choices. Very good value.

We visit here fairly regularly. The beer, food and atmosphere are always good. Staff are friendly and helpful. The great big fireplaces are fantastic in winter time where there is always a roaring log fire.

Super cosy country pub. Food & service good. Dog friendly. Very peaceful location. Nice walk down to river. Rooms comfortable & clean. Good wifi & breakfast.

This classic country pub oozes charm & character and serves great food and ales in a good atmosphere. This is a popular place for locals and visitors alike. Efficient and friendly bar staff. Great Sunday Roast too. What's not to like! Best to reserve a table if you plan to eat.

My old RAF Buddy and his wife joined us on a 6 mile walk followed by lunch at The Crown. As we usually do, wherever we visit, we chose from the sandwich menu and the variety, quality and size of the portions were all above expectations. The beer on tap was equally well kept and met all our expectations. Lizi and the crew at The Crown deserve high praise for their attention to detail and quality in every respect. We all agreed we will return soon. Thanks to all at The Crown for a smashing day.

We had a few cellar ales here and stayed for dinner, which was yummy! There's nothing like a quaint old English inn, complete with curvy stone stairways and varied floor levels to create the perfect atmosphere for locally-sourced eats! Loved this place - all the right elements without all the touristy Cotswolds kitsch!

We didn't actually stay or eat at this pub but have done in the past. We just popped in for a drink. Its a great place to stop, very peaceful surroundings and views of the countryside. We would stay there again its just that they were full at the time we wanted to go.

My title says it all really, the food was very good, the staff were friendly and efficient, and the room was fine with just a few niggles. The niggles related to the bathroom, where was nowhere to put anything down other than a very small shelf, the lid of the lavatory would not stay up on its own which is not a problem for ladies but awkward for chaps, and although the water was hot enough, the shower mixer limited the temperature to the barely adequate. However, I would certainly stay here again.

We had visited the pub for a drink in the past and enjoyed the atmosphere, we heard the food was good. I was blown away with my meal. I was keen to find out from the chef where he sourced the wild mushrooms that formed part of my dish.The staff were very helpful and pleasant, the bill was very reasonable given how good the food was. I will look forward to returning.

My wife and I booked one night B&B and also booked a table for our evening meal. Great rural location with views across the fields. Beamed pub, restaurant and snug well decorated with number of tables for dining. Also a number of tables and benches are located outside and we enjoyed some drinks there before dining. Ales served were great -- I had several. For meals: we shared the smoked salmon terrine for a starter -- it was excellent, my wife ordered the filet of bream -- done properly and very enjoyable and I ordered a steak and it was excellent. This was followed by their sticky toffee pudding -- wonderful.Staff were most helpful and engaging.Meals reasonably priced.Would stay and eat here again if in the area.

I have walked to this lovely establishment on several occasions with my dogs. The pub is set in a beautiful location and the service is always friendly enough. I have always been very pleased with the food until today. I ordered a chicken sandwich which cost in excess of £6 but it was totally disappointing. I received two very thick slices of bread with several lettuce leaves and a very minimal portion of chicken. I understand portion control but this was ridiculous. I should have complained at the time but instead I'm here writing this negative review. Hopefully next time will be better.

We stayed at the bed and breakfast for 2 nights. We had planned to eat at the pub the first night and venture further afield the second. The quality of food and service were some of the best so decided to eat here the second night also. Ok- it was great weather so the beer garden was a great outdoor space with a good mix of dogs, travellers and locals with the local cows trying to get in on the act.The menu had a good mix, a good selection of local ales and international beers and the service was spot on.I will be definitely visiting again- first class

Excellent food,varied quality beer selection;dog friendly;welcoming.We only intended visiting once and changed our plans to fit in another visit

- Dog friendly- Kids friendly- Outside seating with great views- Decent beer selection- Tasty food (including awesome desserts)- River walk nearby to let the grub go down!

Service great but the Lamb Suet Pudding must have been a game of Hunt the lamb in gravy as the suet pudding was so thick there was no room for more than two pieces of small lamb, disgusted and would not recommend this meal choice....

My mother-in-laws 80th up the Crown for 30 people. Booked all 12 hotel rooms and we had the function room all day. Well done to the team. And thanks for all your hard work.

We had a lovely meal here this evening. Good value for money. Nice menu with a lovely specials board too. Staff couldn't have been more helpful. Would thoroughly recommend.

Excellent place for Sunday lunch with friends. Cosy with an open fire, busy, well run. Fabulous roast beef and great wine. Really fitted the bill after a morning walk. Book ahead!

Just followed the brown sign off the main road and found this little gem of a pub/restaurant!Brilliant smiley happy service; great food with decent portions and brilliant value for money-what more can you ask for? Actually, happy buzzy atmosphere and real log fires just complete the picture of a wonderful, ancient English pub serving modern well cooked pub food.Only downside? A choice of Carlsberg or Amstel as the lager range is not particularly inspiring but the Guinness was good! (Good range of real ales is available).Well worth finding, hope you like it as much as we did!

Stopped off in this old favourite from longer ago than I care to remember. Still a smashing pub in a position to die for with very good food and lovely staff.Had some very good roast beef (not leathery brown, but pinker and more interesting) and then ordered pudding and coffee.Coffee arrived within 90 seconds and pudding 20 minutes later. I didn't complain but simply enquired why these two things had been served in this order. Because I hadn't made it clear that I wanted my coffee at the same time as the pudding was kindly and gently explained to me.Those of us old enough to remember a time when courses came in a certain order - starter, main, pudding, coffee - should be aware that waiting staff under the age of 30 are unfamiliar with such customs. And, to be fair, why should they be? So if you want your coffee at the same time as your pudding, or even after it, be sure to make that clear .

Welcoming atmosphere, staff very friendly. Had a lovely table next to log fire, which as it was lashing it down outside, was a welcome sight! Both had roast beef Sunday lunch, roast spuds were excellent and plenty of gravy to accompany selection of green veg, carrots, parsnips and generous helping of beef. Yorkshire pud also very good!It's a traditional old pub which has a homely atmosphere and welcomes dogs and walkers.Good selection of local beers and homemade puds topped,off our visit. Can recommend the creme caramel and the custard tart. Good value too.

My wife and I walked to The Crown Inn from France Lynch on a very wet New Year's Day and what a nice surprise we had.Even though the pub was very busy, we were given a warm welcome from the friendly staff (especially the young barman). Although we didn't eat there (the food looked very good), the atmosphere, surroundings, log fire and excellent choice of beers , makes this pub well worth a visit.

We were here for Christmas lunch and it's probably the worst festive lunch we have experienced. The broth starter looked more like a consomme. The main courses arrived on cold plates which straight away rang alarm bells. The turkey was undercooked and most peoples had pieces of pink turkey if not raw in places. This put me off straight away.One roast potato each which was not roasted and two bits of other veg in a plate of juice. The lamb hot pot was gristley for one of our guests with crisps rather than potatoes as a topping. It cost a lot and it was really disappointing as we had all been looking forward to the lunch for weeks. The staff were very apologetic but no discount offered. Needless to say we won't be returning any time soon.

Spent the evening here with my family, 6 of us. Pre-booked so we weren't disappointed as this is a popular pub. Had starters, main meals, deserts and drinks, including coffee all of which everyone enjoyed. Varied menu, variety of real ales. Staff very professional and helpful would recommend The Crown Inn to anyone who enjoys a great atmosphere, good food and beer and attentive hard working staff.

We are staying in the area and had this place recommended to us by someone who lives locally so we made a visit. The pub was absolutely lovely (in a really pretty setting) and we ate near an open fire. The staff were delightful and we were made to feel very welcome. To add to that we had a cracking lunch that wouldn't be out of place at a top London gastropub (in our experience). The arancini style kedgeree dish was a revelation. Need to go back asap.

We spent a lovely two nights here. A great local pub which hasn't been spoilt by the rush to modernise. And the food was really comforting. The bedroom was a bit dated, but what the heck!

We had a very tasty sunday roast here. We sat next to a roaring fire and had a choice of several different roasts and other dishes. All of our meals were very good and the atmosphere in the pub was lovely- good service too! Great value!

Spontaneous decision to pop in for lunch without booking on a nice summer's day. Simple sandwich and sharing chips. Lovely garden, and pretty nice food. Good service.

Stayed here for two nights with my husband and dog. Room was a good size, clean and a great sized bathroom. Room cleaned even though we were only there for two nights. Breakfast was great and food in the pub was delicious. Very friendly and welcoming staff who could not do enough - all female, will be back ☺

The food was good, the service was friendly and efficient. We had a really nice evening. My only problem is with the decor. I really don't like exposed stone indoors, it feels like you're in a cellar rather than the environment that the food deserves.

Its hard to write a bad review especially when the staff and location were spot on. After a long walk we were so hungry we were looking forward to a tasty meal, and judging by past reviews this is what we were expecting. The food was overpriced for what came out I can only assume whoever was in the kitchen couldn't wait to go home and didn't care what came out. Its a shame someone would serve this up on a plate maybe they were having a bad day and they actually do care what they send out. Unlucky for us we were so hungry after a walk we eat it anyway but for £36 for a tasteless burger and bland stew I feel a little bit mugged off. Front of house and location is great but maybe a review of the kitchen is needed. Will come back for a drink but not food is a shame as I always like to point people in the right direction for yummy food.

We had dinner there two weeks ago and it was brilliant! Although they made a mistake with the ladies orders they more than compensated for their error. The guys food was very good and by the time the ladies meals turned up they were excellent. The staff couldn't be more friendly.Overall the location, staff and food were first class and we will return.

Typical, idylic country pub. Prices ok, good choice. Nice setting if eating outside and charming inside. Dog friendly and good service from staff

We came in because the Daneway was fully booked and they recommended you. Fairly nice Sunday lunch, meat and veg good (not enough gravy and potatoes a bit hard) for the price. Good atmosphere and friend efficient staff. We will be back, hopefully we will have more gravy next time. The pub is great.

The menu was varied and the specials board was excellent. Everything was freshly prepared, tasty and promptly served. The surroundings are lovely - really old and you sense the history. We enjoyed a pre dinner drink in the snug area and moved to the bar area for food.

Stopped off here for lunch real country pub was made very welcome. Food excellent lovely garden to sit if the sun is shining would definitely return

I love this pub - it has everything you want from a country Inn, beautiful setting, great atmosphere, friendly staff and a fine beer and food list.My only criticism and it is a real one, the portion size of the meals are pretty small for the price charged. Three out of the four in our party felt similar. What was delivered was excellent to the taste but I think the pub could gain a few more browny points if it only increased the size of the portion beyond taster level.This will not detract from me returning but rather than go for a starter and a pudding, I would be more inclined to boost the size of my main.
