The Pandy Inn in Herefordshire, County of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Beautiful village pub , loads of character with warm and welcoming interior. Given a very warm welcome by landlady Lisa who made us feel at home straightaway. Excellent choice of local ales/ciders and a varied and reasonably priced wine list. Plenty of choice on menu with very reasonable prices. Our food came to the table beautifully presented and piping hot and was absolutely delicious - can highly recommend James' legendary lasagne and the chilli beef. Desserts were off the scale - Tam's sticky toffee and the lumpy bumpy cake were both superb. We enjoyed the whole experience so much we have booked another 2 visits during our holiday. Well done to Lisa , James and her staff !

We were staying in the village for a long weekend and decided to have lunch at the village pub. Lovely welcome by the landlady and waitress. Only one choice for a roast Sunday lunch which is unusual .We ordered the roast pork which was delicious . The plates need to be warmed a lot more as the food was cold towards the end of the meal.

Great service, great food, good choice of drinks. Everything was excellent..Really don't want to leave this review cos more people will know how good it is and we might not get in next time!

Upon arrival at the Pandy Inn, we were warmly greeted by the landlady,who ensured that we felt completely at home, particularly with our small dog Bella. We had the pleasure of enjoying an exquisite meal, deserving of high praise for the chef, all set in a pleasant atmosphere. The staff’s service was exceptional. We extend our sincere gratitude and look forward to returning during our next visit to the area.

We were staying in Hay-on-Wye and decided to visit one evening. The pub is in a lovely setting and is cosy inside. Lisa, the landlady, and her co-worker were hilarious and we really enjoyed the banter. We both chose the beef lasagne and it was the best we've ever tasted! We visited again on our last night and both opted for the lasagne again followed by the Lumpy Bumpy cake which was delicious. Would highly recommend.

An absolute staple of Herefordshire. The most amazing food, atmosphere and staff from a pub I have seen in my life :)

Stayed in Dorstone for week, ate here 3 times, great every time. Made very welcome by Landlady and staff, could not fault it

Beautiful food tonight for a relatives birthday, thank you team Pandy

Herefordshire has an abundance of excellent country pubs to choose from but trust me, The Pandy Inn is the best. A fantastic, friendly welcome is followed by a healthy choice of beers whilst you mull - over the small but perfectly formed menu. The food is top drawer and there's plenty of it. See you there again soon!

This is a truly wonderful pub with a marvellous hostess, Lisa. She has created a fantastic atmosphere in this wonderful old building. It's warm, welcoming, cosy - and the food is absolutely great. It's everything a country pub should be. I wish I had a local like this where I live in South West London. Very envious of the village residents having this gem on their doorstep.

Very enjoyable steak and ale pie. They also serve main menu food on Sunday.

A highly recommend, lovely 12th century Inn, dog friendly and a great little beer garden. We received a friendly welcome from Lisa and the team. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was spot on. 👍 The cider choice was also very good and would have had a few more if my wife wasn't persuaded to have a Bailey's concoction that meant I had to drive. 🙂 Thanks for a great evening. We will definitely head back if we are in the area again.

Amazing food here! Especially when we went on Sunday, and a lovely outside seating area. Would recommend

We visited the Pandy Inn today as we'd seen all of the positive reviews since the new people took over late last year. We had the Lasagne and the Australian Burger and both were excellently cooked and presented and tasted lovely. The barman / waiter was very friendly and knew every ingredient in every meal off by heart. We were made to feel very welcome. We will definitely visit again soon.

Lovely 12th century Inn with delicious home cooked food and great beer. Beautiful garden and friendly staff.

Didn't stay, but the food was excellent, the service was brilliant. A great pub, interesting location and all round a good experience. Highly recommended

Stayed in Dorstone begining of May, visited the Pandy twice during our stay, lovely staff, great landlady, was made to feel very welcome, it was my birthday and was given a b/day drink, the food was really good, on the second visit I had the Lasange with the best salad I have ever had.

We stopped for dinner after a long walk and we were delighted with the setting, service and food! The lady who greeted us was super friendly and ensured we had a table in the garden before taking our order. The steak was cooked to perfection and the accompanying chips, onion rings etc were delicious. The chilli beef is proper chunks of beef rather than mince and is served with chips, rice, tortillas, guacamole AND sour cream! Lovely pints of Camden Hells and Wye Valley HPA on cask, perfect. It was just what was needed, thanks.

Lovely bar staff and a great location for a cold drink!

Epic, there is no where in the area better, staff all wonderful, polite, happy and eager to please, food superb. Thanks so much for a lovely evening

Never eat there as food is cold and the staff are horrible to you

Very nice and polite land lady. Decent drinks and nice atmosphere

Lively and cosy old pub in a beautiful village. Full of atmosphere. Very friendly and efficient service. Good food and drinks.

Breakfast stop to get out of the rain. So glad we stopped there. Fab service, friendly staff and great brekky.

Charming old pub with great food. Staff was professional and friendly.

This was a highlight of our trip. We stayed at the Pandy B&B and had supper at the Pandy Inn. Rooms were gorgeous and bathrooms fabulous. Supper and drinks at the Inn were delicious and the staff were wonderful. Breakfast at the B&B was perfect with lots of orange juice. Highly recommended.

Great customer service. Very friendly staff! Order was taken within minutes and food must have arrived within 15 minutes 😋 Lovely atmosphere, delicious food and great value for your money (Portion sizes keep you full for days)

A lovely village pub. 12 of us celebrated my mums 90th birthday, nice friendly staff, nothing was too much trouble. A superb Sunday lunch, a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

So I invited friends to a celebration last night. Friends who were celebrating a great success. A magnum of champagne to share! A member of staff quietly arranged for a lift for those who needed one without disclosing my surprise! I have dined at this outstanding pub, I go there for the occasional drink and have found their cuisine outstanding, and their bar welcoming with a great choice of excellent local ales. But the discretion and care for my guests last night went so far beyond what one could expect, that I rate The Pandy as the best Pub in the area!!

We were tired and damp from a long walk over the Black Mountains and the lady behind the bar made us both very welcome.Going back for a meal later.

Shouldn't tell you this really, the next time we come for a meal it may be full. This Inn is fantastic, it is friendly, welcoming, no glaring lights, real character, real wood fire, real ail is superb, the food is excellent, home cooked and really reasonably priced. We turned up on the spur of the moment with our daughter, a party of four, ordered differing meals and since the food was so good decided to also try and manage dessert, it was excellent, should this village lose this Inn during the ongoing decline it would be criminal. Cannot give any info on rooms as we have not sampled that...Yet.

Absolutely awesome Inn fantastic food and real Ale very welcoming and real wood fire no problem at all in recommending this property

Absolutely loved our accommodation but I'm sorry to say the beds were soo uncomfortable that we struggled to make it through our 3 night stay. Hosts were amazing, location amazing but please sort put the bed situation

We stopped off here on the way back to South Wales after a day shopping in Hereford. We didn't know what to expect as it was a Google search but the reviews all sounded positive. Well we were truly delighted. The warm welcome received as we walked in was great and the food and service even better. A little gem worth driving too.

We visited the Pandy on a December Saturday night with Mum, the three of us were given a great table next to the bar and log fire. Everyone working there was friendly and made us feel very welcome as we have never visited before. The food was stunning, everything having that lovely home cooked individual feel. The pub has fantastic Christmas decorations and a lovely ambience - although we live 200 miles away we will be back when we can!! Ten out of Ten for us, thanks so much for a lovely evening.

A fantastic pub that is well worth visiting. The food is some of the best you can get, with a wide selection of entrées. The beer and cider collection is also on par, with many options on tap and of great quality. The outdoor seating is also incredibly beautiful and scenic, offering a nice quiet place for an afternoon ale or a peaceful dinner.

Do not visit with small children. Owners told off my 5 year old daughter for singing, did not approach us as parents. Asked for child dessert menu and was met with cold response of no (there was a child meal menu, so it would follow that there should be child desserts). Owners response to us raising these concerns was to tell us we are bad parents and that our daughter was disturbing other guests. So troubling to find such an anti child sentiment alive in 2023 Britain. If you have small kids, stay away

Lovely old pub, warm and cosy. A friendly relaxed atmosphere. The staff were so lovely. I had the vegan option and it was beautiful. My other half had chilli beef nachos and he really enjoyed his. I forgot to take pics of the food ( unlike me). But I will be back for more, another day and I will take them then.

Fantastic pub - always great food with a warm welcome from Lisa and the team. See you all again soon :)

Absolutely fantastic pub in a lovely village setting..the staff were most welcoming and the food was superb ( not small portions either )..we visited twice during our week's stay and were not disappointed on both occasions...thanks for looking after us..mark ( not emma ) 😂

The Pandy Inn is was so welcoming! Really loved the relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The food was delicious, decent portions and service was excellent. This place is an absolute must if you're in the area.

Tasty pub classics served by very friendly snd helpful staff. We visited twice during our stay in Dorstone as we enjoyed so much the first time.

Lovely pub, full of atmosphere with a welcoming host. Food was well cooked and plentiful. Would definitely visit again.

Excellent meal on a cold, blustery evening. Great homely food with reasonable prices. Would recommend the crumble... One of the best I've had!

Excellent meal, lovely service and very reasonable. Plenty of gluten free and veggie options. Even had gf sticky toffee pud!

What a find Excellent service throughout by all the staff 3 different meals all absolutely delicious Will certainly return

Fantastic unique pub in superb village surroundings, with super friendly staff that welcomed us like family. We didn't book, but were squeezed in the dog friendly section with our two dogs and it sure was dog friendly with water and treats supplied. Atmosphere and decor was excellent along with a quality drinks menu. Food was excellent, I had the pie and was pleased with taste and amount and my partner had the most perfectly cooked steak. Excellent.

We were staying in Dorstone and ate at the Pandy on two occasions. A good choice of meals with excellent friendly service. The portions are large and well cooked. Difficult to resist a pud, which we shared. Well worth the visit.

We enjoyed a lovely meal at the Pandy inn. Great choice and value and friendly efficient service. All the food was well prepared and tasted wonderful. My husband loved his lasagne and I enjoyed my chickpea and cauliflower tagine. Also great pudding selection and spotted dick and custard and bread and butter pudding didn’t disappoint. We’ll be back!

Our meal was made special by amazing friendly service that just crowned the excellent food. Steak served just right with a wide range of accompaniments, a fishcakes dish with a salad that was well above a normal pub salad and puds that we perfect. Good drinks to add to this, but it was the service, that on a busy Saturday evening, made this special! Well done and thank you!

We had a delicious meal here whilst staying in Dorstone. Staff were excellent, friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely atmosphere. Great staff. Food fantastic and dog friendly. And there organic cider. Knockout 😂. Well worth a visit.

Great pub. We went for dinner while staying locally. Food was really good and the service, super friendly and efficient. Beautiful old pub!

Stopped by for food and was greeted by a lovely, friendly lady who made us feel very welcome. She was very accommodating of our two fur babies and made sure they were happy during their stay, even providing treats. The food was excellent. The steak was the best I've ever had and cooked exactly to my liking. The tart tartin was so delicious and well worth the wait. The staff are friendly and welcoming, the pub is amazing and the food is delicious. Couldn't ask for more.

The Pandy Inn was a lovely stop off for a Sunday roast and the service and staff were so lovely and accommodating. The food was delish and the doggo was able to relax from the hot sun and enjoy it too.

The meal was excellent and service very good. I would however have preferred my steak beside my salad rather than on top as the salad wilted.

A lovely service and atmosphere, even on a busy Sunday. Friendly and welcoming staff, and excellent food.

Lovely country pub, just as a country pub should be e.g.. no distracting tv with bloody football showing. The food is excellent and has a varied menu to suit most. Highly recommended 👍

Visited the Pandy Inn twice while we were staying near Hay on Wye. It wasn't the local pub but we had seen some good reviews and so decided to visit. It was well worth the twenty minute drive - a fantastic old pub with friendly and efficient staff who went out of their way to welcome us. The food was excellent with great choice, huge portions and great value. Was very popular and quite busy mid-week - worth booking to avoid disappointment.

Good food best pub in Herefordshire-doorstone.( other post was for the bath arms did by mistake)

We came across this lovely hidden gem by accident. The staff were welcoming and helpful (we were lost!) We came back for some food, and honestly it was the best food we have had our in a very long time. The steaks were actually cooked as requested (rare) they were full of flavour and came with lots of sides that were all amazing, the chilli beef was large chunks of succulent beef not minced beef. The deserts were all incredible, a great selection. The wine menu was also great. Children and dogs welcome and the garden was well loved and beautiful. Thank you very much, we will be back.

Beautiful walks and views, lovely pub on doorstep, very peaceful. 10/10.

We met our daughter and her friend her who are hiking in the area. We had a very warm welcome, lovely table, scrumptious food, and delightful waitress. Would highly recommend

Fantastic experience, lovely food and the staff were brilliant. Nothing was too much for them very welcoming friendly and looked after their customers. The landlady even bought me a birthday drink . We will definitely be returning on our next break in this area .

Just visited this wonderful old pub and we both had the most fantastic meal. The two ladies behind the bar made us feel so welcome. We will be back soon.

Stopped off for Sunday lunch. Hadn't booked but received a lovely welcome and was fitted in for a meal. Food and service both excellent as was the atmosphere. Portion size very good. Will definitely be back.

We finally made it in to have dinner at this amazing old pub. Such a cozy atmosphere, delightful staff and the food was brilliant. Thank you to Lisa the magnanimous host who went above and beyond in making us welcome. We'll be back.

Was my local back in 70s still the thriving little pub it always was but now with excellent food. I will be back soon.

Lovely steak. Good country pub. Nice garden. We went twice during our 10 day break in the area

Lovely staff. Good food. Good ale. Friendly comfortable pub. First time back in 20 yrs. Will go again soon.

It was a lovely experience with nothing to fault at all. The service was perfect and the food delicious; I would thoroughly recommend to anyone. The ladies serving were polite, friendly and personal and the food arrived well presented, hot and tasted delicious. One of the best pubs I have visited in a very long time.

A great restaurant and pub. Always welcoming with good food, wine and beer.

Lovely quaint old pub. Very friendly & welcoming lady. Food was good & a nice atmosphere. Will definitely recommend & visit again.

Fabulous pub, in the middle of a very pretty village. Such a lovely welcome from the staff and very good food. Good ciders, wine and local gin. Lovely local food, steak, chilli and lasagne. Good portion size so no room for pudding but a good choice was available. Would definitely return. Car park at the rear but also opposite.

Excellent steak dinner 😋 we were well looked after and left all plates clean. The host lady was very friendly and welcoming. Great selection of desserts. Really enjoyed the traditional decor inside.

Gorgeous cottage feel pub. Food is amazing and lovely welcoming staff. Walked in and was hit by the smell of mouthwatering food. Very warm and toasty. Will be returning.

Stumbled across this place on a drive out through the country. The staff couldn't have been more welcoming, the village was quaint and lovely and the Sunday roast was exceptional! We'll be back if we're driving in the area again!

Such a super little pub. Oozing tradition, but not in a stuffy way. Amazingly accommodating and fitted us in for Sunday roast even after their allotted serving time, plus it was really reasonably priced. Staff were superb and it was really lovely being able to spend some time talking to the owner, who was particularly lovely. Cannot recommend this place enough.

What a gem of a place! The staff was so helpful and welcoming, best place I've been too in ages. Food was amazing. Would definitely take a visit of your in the area. Will definitely go back when staying in Dorstone again.

Lovely old pub. We stopped by on Sunday afternoon for a quick drink after a walk.Staff were really friendly and made a fuss of the dog, who was made very welcome with a biscuit and water. We had a quiet drink in a lovely environment.

Really enjoyed visiting this pub, staff were super friendly and looked after us really well. Will come back soon.

Brilliant staff and fantastic food...a proper pub xx

Absolutely gorgeous! Landlady was such a kind and friendly woman. We were a big party and we were very well accommodated for. Sunday lunch was delicious aswell. Great portions !

Really friendly atmosphere, very dog friendly and the best beef stew and steak and ale pie my partner and I have ever had! Fell apart in the mouth

If all pubs were run like this, none would be going out of business. Superb food, full pint, incredibly welcoming, warm and clean. Excellent! 5 stars are not enough! Tick V.G. Wol8.

Love the food here, i Highly recommend the sirloin steak it's cooked to perfection, Reasonably priced and excellent staff.

Absolutely stunning Sunday lunch great value lovely surroundings & pleasant staff would highly recommend the food and dog friendly

Lovely atmosphere at The Pandy Inn yesterday evening and an excellent steak and ale pie. Thank you for keeping the kitchen open until everyone had arrived.

Quirky and fun - great beers and friendly team…and other guests!!

We visited twice during a short break in the area and would thoroughly recommend it. The food and service are excellent and the portions are very generous. It's wise to book, especially on Friday and Saturday, but whenever you go, you'll get a warm welcome.

Very welcoming had a lovely roast dinner and it is popular with many customers. Excellent staff.

What can I say about the Pandy Inn except that it's an excellent pub to visit. We've been here a handful of times and we have never been disappointed. The service is excellent, the staff are polite and extremely friendly plus the location of the pub is excellent too. Even though we've only been here a few times, our meals have always tasted nice plus we have not had to wait long for our meals to be served. My partner and I have no complaints about the service, the staff or the pub itself. My partner and I highly recommend the Pandy Inn to anybody who is visiting this area. You will be seeing us again sooner rather than later.

Great place, lovely atmosphere. Great food.

Had the most AMAZING Sunday lunch here. The beef was to Die for!! Plenty of beef. Worth every penny. Highly recomend. 10/10

Always a warm welcome and great service in a traditional pub They serve up delicious food, especially the Herefordshire steak which has to be washed down with a Butty Bach

We had Sunday lunch and it was absolutely mouth water.

What a great pub! Lovely staff, nice mix of visitors and locals, beautiful interior. Great food and especially fab with dogs! Thx for such a great night

What a wonderful pub, great food, beer and lovely staff. We enjoyed a Sunday lunch here, everything was freshly cooked, absolutely delicious and the staff were so helpful and friendly - can’t wait to go again!

Utterly charming, great staff and menu. Thanks for looking after this rabble!
