We visited to celebrate 2 birthdays with our friends. This was my first visit and I had heard very good things about this place. My starter was gorgeous - Goats cheese - however due to the limited menu on the board on this day, I opted for Sausages with the gravy on the side. The sausages, while from a local supplier were a bit dry and the gravy, for me, was reduced too much so was sweet and sticky - not what I would assume would be classed as a gravy. My husband had the venison which he enjoyed but again, the beetroot puree made the dish rather sweet for a main. The food was good but due to the choice on the day, I wouldn't return in the next few months and will await a change for a winter menu I guess!

Looking for a light lunch and this place looked good. Friendly welcome and very clean and tidy. Menu was up on wall boards and nothing wrong with it but nothing said wow. However appeared quickly enough and was tasty. Service was good. This place is pleasant, clean and I was not disappointed.

Went to the pub to celebrate our daughters birthday, fifteen of us. When booking I expected the Landlord to say that we would need to order in advance. No, turned up and ordered off the menu. Each course arrived together, great service, the chefs must have worked their socks off. Very friendly Landlord and the staff could not have been more helpful.

I come all the way from New York City, just to eat here, anytime I’m in England. Absolutely brilliant. The filet with blue cheese and pink pepper corns. The local tunworth molten cheese with thyme and honey. The gnocchi. Everything here is Michelin star worthy, set in the most quintessential pub. All local, and seasonal. Phil, the owner greets everyone and personally tells you the menu, as it changes daily. He’s a legend. Go here. Go to England just to go here. It’s that good.

A phenomenal pub! A game meat lovers dream. This has to be my ideal pub. I'm devastated I live nearly 2 hours away, albeit that's probably good for my wallet and waistline. The menu evolves and changes with locally sourced meat and produce. It's rare that I want every single item on the menu, but I did here.

Absolutely fabulous, and couldn’t agree more with all the previous reviews! The landlord was friendly, welcoming and just knew his stuff. We came with 4x kids in our group, and although there wasn’t a kids menu, he essentially created one for us from the existing adult menu. I’ve been to the Guinea Grill in Mayfair several times, and none of steaks that I had there were as good as the Fillet Steak with blue cheese and pink peppercorn sauce. The dauphinoise potatoes were perfect, along with the jus, which I think might have been a treacle sauce, but whatever it was, it was the best steak I’ve ever had. Cooked medium rare to perfection. Not to mention, the venison and black pudding scotch egg was the best I’ve ever had! The prices were at the high end, but absolutely worth it. Can’t recommend this lovely country pub enough, and we will be back again very soon

What a gem of a restaurant!! We ate here when staying at a hotel nearby and it was without a doubt one of the best meals we’ve had out in a long time. Everything from the service, the atmosphere and the quality of the food was top notch. We were so impressed by the personal service and how some of the meals were ‘off menu’. The steak gnochhi was stunning and I’ll dream of this dinner! Thanks so much to everyone at the gamekeepers for a lovely birthday meal!

Excellent food, extremely welcoming. What stood out was they offered really delicious food for our 1 year old, beautiful carrots and mash for the little one. Truly excellent starters and mains as well as puddings for the adults. You can tell the team and owner (I’m guessing? The man who greeted us seemed in charge) are super passionate about good food and hospitality. He was so excited to share the menu and offer food for the baby. I don’t normally write review but this place just made our day. Hope to be back soon.

5 stars for the amazing food. We booked this for our 25th anniversary. Due to the lack of acknowledgement and not so attentive service I can only give 3 stars. We ordered a bottle of wine and had to serve ourselves, the table was next to the kitchen door and the main walkway to lots of tables. Menus are difficult to read and although they are read out to you we resorted to the internet to get a better look of the food. I had the venison gnocchi with a white wine sauce which was delicious. My husband had the steak and said it was good. Special occasion for us, but spoilt by the atmosphere.

This was a very disappointing experience. The food was overpriced and only quite good. Too often we were interrupted by staff with no ‘excuse me’, so conversations were halted mid-flow. We were sprinted through the menu which was written on a blackboard and hard to see. The staff were not particularly friendly, many sitting about looking bored. At 9.45 pm we were told they were locking up in ten minutes - we hadn’t even paid our bill at this point - and told drink up. We paid over £60 for two drinks, two main courses and one coffee. Absolutely ridiculous. Never shall we return.

So impressed with The Gamekeepers. I met a friend for Sunday lunch, as it was about halfway between us, and I am now very much wishing it was my local. It has the feel of a proper, cosy pub with history, but also has an amazing, gastro menu of fine dining comfort food, beautifully prepared. The staff were warm, attentive and unusually helpful. It's one of those rare gems whose publican is the heart of the establishment and he really cares about his customers' experience. It was suggested to me by neighbouring Four Seasons Hotel and proved more than worthy of their recommendation. Thank you Gamekeepers!

Stumbled across The Gamekeepers Inn on a Sunday evening when looking for a pub to have dinner at 7pm after a long day in the outdoors. The owners Philip and Sandra were warm and welcoming, explained the menu and had food and drink before us within what seemed minutes. We had the baked Tunworth cheese to share which was luxurious, the lasagne and gnocchi for main. The ingredients made these dishes delicious and if you like generous portions then you won't be disappointed, we will make a return visit to try the other delights on the menu.

Just popped in for lunch to catch up with friends who live nearby. The service was pleasant friendly and efficient (just as it should be). Drinks and food were served quickly and the food was very good and enjoyed by all of us. Clean plates all round. The place has quite a nice atmosphere as well. It's big enough to have a decent space between tables so you dont feel on top of one another.

One of our party was gluten and dairy intolerant ... the waiter had to keep checking several times to know which items contained dairy. This was surprising given the limited nature of the set menu. Also, the only dessert option for our party member from the set menu was the poached pear which was not available, and we weren't aware of this until after the first two courses. This wasn't unavailable due to being sold out, but because the pears were unexpectedly hard, and they were preferring not to serve them. We opted to take them as they came, yet did need a knife and fork to eat them, but I don't understand why they didn't just warm them up to soften them beforehand. Plus also, it came with an aniseed coulis, which was originally advertised as a berry coulis, and the dairy intolerant guest really can't stand aniseed, so they ended up leaving the pear! With all the faff around the dessert, it ended the meal on a down note, and it all could have been avoided had we been proactively warned about the pear before we locked ourselves into ordering off the set menu. I was also surprised that there was only one dairy free option off the set menu... even just sorbet ice cream wasn't an official option, though it came as an addition to the pear?

I’m a bit late writing this review but reminded to do so because I keep getting emails from the pub. We called into the pub to talk to them about arranging lunch for a large party after a christening. We did that especially because we wanted to know where we might be sat. This was an important event for us. We were shown a lovely area and it was explained how tables could be put together. We booked, and were looking forward to it. We were surprised when we arrived for the lunch to find we had been put in a tiny annex away from the main dining area. Chairs had been squeezed in, there was no room for high chairs or the pushchair and we had to squeeze past each other to reach seats. The children kept having to duck under the table to go to the toilet. We had been asked to pre order our meals, but many of them were wrong when they arrived and four of the desserts did not arrive and we had to find someone to ask for them ( after about 15 mins of waiting). All in all it was disappointing to say the least and we will never go there again. It felt like we were just treated like captive customers and they couldn’t be bothered. Actually we have lots of family events and our repeat custom would have been valuable.

Went to the Noel diamond tribute last night - it included a meal - the show and the food were excellent. Everything was served promptly and the waiting staff were brilliant. We stayed overnight which was lovely - a brilliant night out
