The Radnor Arms in Vale of White Horse

Visited with my family, bar service was excellent,served by a lovely Polish lady, The waitress that bought our food out was lary and condescending, 2 of us ordered the vegetable curry one medium, one hot , the waitress insisted there was no difference between the two both hot and found it amusing, so not impressed.

Such a lovely pub! I was on a first date and had picked the place because online it looked nice and cosy for a drink and I was not disappointed. The pub is small and for a Saturday night it was pretty quiet but the decor, lighting and gentle playlist all created an intimate atmosphere. The bartender was also super friendly! I’ll definitely be coming back.

This is a pub that is in our favourite walking spot. We haven’t been since last summer due to an encounter with the rather rude landlord and landlady. We decided to come back as it’s such a lovely spot and somewhere we have taken the kids and dogs for years when walking here. We thought we’d give it another try. Big mistake. On entering the beer garden (where we were the only patrons) we were greeted by endless signs put up by the landlord stating we are being watched on cctv and children are not allowed to play in the garden. Extremely odd and not at all welcoming. As we walk here often we see that the pub is almost always empty. Such a shame as it really is a lovely spot but I am not surprised given the landlord’s clear dislike of dogs and children. Didn’t feel comfortable at all and this confirmed why we avoided the venue for such a long time. What was once such a thriving pub in a beautiful village is now a barron, lifeless and unwelcoming project by clearly unprofessional publicans. Wouldn’t recommend, go to the tea rooms down the road.

Was not made to feel welcome, the service was appalling....left without any purchase , shan't be returning.

We arrived in the afternoon after a walk in the NT estate for a drink in the garden with our young children. We ordered at the bar inside and noted a CCTV surveillance screen with multiple live streams. Nonetheless we proceeded to garden where we were the only people. We then discovered we were being watched on the CCTV as on two separate occasions the staff came out from inside the pub to voice their somewhat strange overbearing opinions. The owner came out to tell our children to stop touching the wheelbarrow (don’t leave it next to the picnic benches) and the bar lady came out to tell us she was concerned about our 1 year old son who was playing on the grass as he ‘almost toppled over’. We were left uncomfortable at being watched, and found their behaviour somewhat creepy. Hence we left swiftly and will not return.

Really disappointing, and unreliable. Have tried and tried with this pub, and we really do want it to be a great local go to place. Sometimes they do food sometimes they don’t. Cold bar and a ‘snug’ they don’t let dogs in. It’s clear from the passive aggressive signs the landlord clearly doesn’t like dogs, there’s very little room if you do take a dog as you’re only allowed in one small space, and no dog bowls for water, leaving one customer trying to give his dogs a drink from a plastic pint glass. Feels like it’s managed from a distance as I can’t believe a live in landlord wouldn’t see what this place needs. It’s completely missing a trick, especially considering this is a popular dog walking area, and it probably explains why it’s never really busy when it should be. Add that to the fact that the owner has zero idea what the pub is trying to be, random decor with plastic plants and tacky furniture, completely at odds with the building and local heritage, looks like he did a shopping trip to Homesense and purchased everything in the clearance section. Clueless. This is supposed to be a country pub. Keep it classic and simple, light the fire and offer food, not a sign that says ‘sorry no food’.

We met our family here for a roast dinner. We were shown to a table in a very cold room, The heating was on but the fire was not lit and there was a cold draught through the french windows. We decided to east in the bar as it was a little warmer. as did the young family who arrived after us. The food was excellent but the little heating in the bar went off well before we had finished our meal and being cold spoiled the occasion. They were obviously trying to save money but will find less people go to this pub if they are cold. No one ate in the dining room whilst we were there between 1 and 3.30.

No food and really cold the beer selection was nt good no real ale only fizzy beer or Guinness small bar with no respect for dog owners in a dog walking area

This is the second time we came in, as the first time I had brilliant food and service from a lovely young lady, I asked if she was the land lady, because I thought she was so professional and couldn’t do enough for us. We decided to come in the week between Christmas and New year, because I told friends how great the place is. We got there and were told it was a limited menu, ok, not great but that was fine. The service was so slow, young girl on her own. Didn’t seem like she wanted to be there, was told that there aren’t enough staff members. Unfortunately we will not be returning again. Food wasn’t a good as the first time either. Such a shame.

Visited after a walk with friends for a drink and lunch. We had booked a table but couldn’t go in the dining area as we had a dog with us. The dog friendly area is just 4 small tables in bar area. One inexperienced staff member working, draught beer not working and no idea why? Ordered food which was slow to arrive but good when it did apart from no sauces offered service very poor, we asked for condiments which arrived when we had finished. No one asked if our food was ok, one small sauce pot for one slammed on table. Shame really as would not go again or recommend to anyone. They are missing a trick too as so many dog walkers use the area.

just the best welcome possible. We love the Radnor Arm, if you're ever in the area; do yourself a favour and stop in, even just for one drink ! x

Nice pub we took our dog in with us. Food good nice staff

Fantastic family pub Great service from local staff and friendly atmosphere Wonderful food with locally sourced produce Fantastic fish from new wave sea bass was fantastic Could not recommend more we will return!

One beer and a packet of crisps….£6.80! At the Rose and Crown in Highworth the same is only £4.60. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere almost makes up for it!!

just perfect for us, what a little gem.

A lovely stay over, great food , lovely staff.

Had a burger there and it was a great bit of beef, really juicy.

Well the staff are very welcoming and the beer/ Cider good. I have not experienced the food but would love to try

We popped into the Radnor Arms after a cycle ride at the nearby national trust site Coleshill as we’d heard they we’re now serving food. The staff were excellent, our 5 year old made fast friends with them. The food was great, very large menu, and served prompt. We will definitely be back again.

Friendly staff and good Guinness. They're in between owners at the moment, so food is off, but bear with it!

I have been a local to the pub for 42 year it has been brilliant pace for having a pint and some great food and a good natter with local and visitors my dog loves it. And I am sure it will be again when the new landlords open it fully. Looking forward to seeing all the people and dogs again for a catch up great

It was a shame I could only stop for a drink, because the menu looked so good! Lovely staff at the helm, and a nice cosy country Inn feel. Well worth a visit.

I visit regularly with family and friends but the pricing has changed lots (3 times for a glass of the same rose over a few weeks) most recently £7 for a medium glass of rose. And the barman was all over the place

Lovely country pub, very cosy.

Not what it used to be sadly, a shadow of its former self.

Really lovely quaint traditional pub in a gorgeous village location. Perfect for a few drinks after a walk.

I came here with my daughter and friends, we waited forever, not busy at all but the service was so slow , took us more then 40 min to order then even more to have the starters, poor Sunday roast with dry hard roasted potatoes, my vegetarian roast was ok, really poor service too, I have tried this place few months ago and was completely different, was one of the best Sunday roast we had. Hope they get back together with what's they do. What's happened guys?

Had a great, traditional Sunday lunch. Veg cooked beautifully and the option to have a lighter portion. Excellent value.

Inexperienced staff, best chips and lovely dog friendly garden. Nice break when doing Coleshill round

Love this pub, every time we visit coleshill we have to have food and drink here, it brings back so many memories of when my grandparents lived there. Staff as always friendly and helpful, dog friendly too.

Been to the Radnor Arms several times over the past year and always had great food and service so trusted them for our wedding lunch for a small group. Food was fab, nothing was too much trouble and we had a wonderful time there.

Delicious and copious Sunday lunch, thank you

We ventured here as we love the sister place in Cricklade. Sadly, the menu is extremely limited - scampi, fish and chips, burger or steak. Simiairly, only two puddings on offer. We will stick with our local places in Cricklade.

We had booked a table for 1.00pm only to find when we arrived that no food was being served due to staff being off with COVID. If we had been notified in advance that would have been fine. But unfortunately we were not notified until half an hour after our booking. So a completely wasted journey. Shame we were let down by poor customer service as we have eaten here before and the food was excellent. Won't be returning.

Very helpful and knowledgeable barman

Incredible food, the menu had a good selection. We had sandwiches for lunch one day and dinner another day, both fantastic fresh and delicious meals. Thank you :)

Lovely to walk to from Cuckoopen Plantation. Lovely cup of coffee.

Warm welcome, excellent food, great service.

Good food, good service, good atmosphere! Excellent pub with a local feel.

Friendly service good food and drink

Lovely evening meal at the Radnor Arms in Coleshill. A small but very appetising menu of classic pub grub, all of which was cooked well and very enjoyable. Good choice of indoor and outdoor seating, and very dog friendly. Good beer and great service. Only little thing that let it down was the pudding choices, only having 2 options. Cannot recommend this place enough, and will definitely be revisiting!

A quintessential English pub. Good beer, good food with the accent on locally grown organic produce.

We came upon the Radnor Arms by accident, and decided to stop for lunch. The welcome was warm, the beer and cider were top-notch and the sandwiches were superb. Generous beef and horseradish on sourdough bread were delicious, and so filling I wasn't hungry when it came to dinner time! We shall definitely call in again when next in Coleshill.

Our favourite post dog walk pub visit. The Radnor arms is a fabulous local pub with a brilliant selection of independent ales and a small but perfectly formed menu. The landlord is super friendly and the pub is very cozy.

we have chinese marniate ribs with lovely crispy fries & fish & chips both very where a lovely meal , good service . highly recommended

Small menu but WOW! Friendly greeting by staff and locals and pleasantly surprised to see they have covered outside dining. We ordered fish and chips and the burger-absolutely delicious. Cooked fresh, sourced locally and staff really demonstrated commitment to sourcing locally and providing customer satisfaction. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Really looked forward to going out with friends after such a long time to enjoy Sunday lunch. We have visited the Radnor arms on many occasions and thought it a good opportunity to try again now there are new owners, as we love the sister pub, the Cricklade club. Was a little surprised by the price of £18 but don't mind paying for quality food and good value. The roast beef and yorkshire pudding were delicious, but the vegetable and roast potatoes were really disappointing, undercooked and not enough. Sadly will be a while before we try it again.

These guys are totally community-minded and still putting in loads of love and effort to maintain a brilliant little country pub despite the covid lockdowns. They’ve set up a great outdoor space for eating good food and enjoying excellent local drinks. Lovely walks nearby and an excellent stopping point before or after a ramble. Check out their story .. these guys wanted to make sure the local community kept their village pub and they have done a brilliant job. Stop by and enjoy the Radnor Arms ❤️

£18 for a roast Sunday lunch. Both meats were tough and full of fat. Childs portion as far as the veg was concerned, root veg was rock hard. Yorkshire puddings raw in the middle. Positives roast spuds and gravy were good just not enough of them. Disappointed, after being closed for so long, I would of expected an excellent meal. Don't think we'll eat there again

Cosy little village pub. Wasn't keen on the curried cauliflower with my Sunday Roast tho...

Excellent service and great food

The service was excellent & very welcoming to our pooch Not sure about the atmosphere as post lockdown Meal was Ok ... my hubby didn’t enjoy the fish ... felt it was cooked from frozen & texture was mushy once served Didn’t complain at the time as new family members had organised to eat here & didn’t want to insult their choice of venue

Great to be back at the Radnor. A local village pub with great relaxed atmosphere and good food albeit from a limited menu. Well done to all the staff at the Radnor Arms during a really challenging year. Fantastic effort and thanks for being there. We will be back #supportyourlocalbusinesses

Very nice place, warm and very well decorated. The food was really good and the service outstanding. The price was pretty average. Totally recommendable.

Incredible food, lovely atmosphere and the staff are amazing!

Beautiful food that is great value. Pub has a lovely atmosphere and is well laid out with plenty of space between tables and has a very cosy feel.

Great snack plates and beautiful Cotswold cider on tap. We’ve visited 3 times in the past month and enjoyed great food and friendly service.

Friendly staff, simple menu done well.

Decided to stop for a drink in their garden following a long country walk as the pub looked very cute. Ducked inside to sign in, see what they had on draft and find out if they had an app, what they were doing Covid-wise etc. The lady behind the bar for very curt — borderline rude — and the waiting staff proceeded to ignore our table, serving multiple other tables before us. We left without ordering anything as we couldn't get service.

The beer was ok ,chips were really good but the pork sandwiches had a lot of fat, pretty much half the sandwich ,bread was fresh but very crusty

Returned two separate occasions recently, one time a Sunday roast, which was excellent quality and last week for the steak night. The Tomahawk steak were amazing and a real treat. Under new management, they clearly have a very good chef there finally and the service was friendly too. Definitely recommend it.

We’d been for a bike ride and wanted a snack. Hubby had the Brie and apple which is an inspired combination. As was the goats cheese salad. I’ve had a few in my time and this was the best!! We’ll be back to try the rest of the menu...

This place was a welcome stop off after a walk! We booked a table and they accommodated our dog inside plus dog bowl, which was brilliant ! The service was kind and friendly. Menu was a good mixture of things.. really really recommend the scotch eggs , the best I’ve ever eaten!! The roast beef dinner was sublime .. definitely worth a visit!

There is nothing better than walking into a local village pub and discovering that it is a gem, The Radnor is not your average pub. I wasn't expecting it to be as gd as it was. Get the roast beef all day every day!

Small and friendly worth while a visit

The Pub has just returned and it's going through a refurbishment. We only had a drink there but the menu looked amazing. Only draw back, as a temporary measure the was only one toilet, to be shared, quick was outside.

Booked dinner for the two of us here on a Saturday night. At the suggestion of the staff, we enjoyed a drink outside in the sunny garden area before heading inside for our meal. We had Brie de Meaux and whitebait to start, followed by the Radnor burger - all were delicious. We were too full for dessert! Manager Amy was lovely, offering advice on where to visit in the area. Would certainly recommend a visit here if you're staying in the area or passing through.

This National Trust pub has undergone a few changes in the last few years. However more recently it was supported by a community response to save it from closure. It’s aim is to provide a unique little pub using seasonal produce from local suppliers and beers, cider and gin from artisans. The veg comes from Coleshill Organics opposite and beers from local Butts and Hop Kettle breweries and they use Cotswold Cider. It’s funded by not for profit private investment and a crowdfund. They have an excellent team and talented chef in John, who cooks and bakes everything from fresh. The food is classic seasonal British pub food, with an emphasis on fresh and home cooked. It’s a couple of quid more than a chain pub, but the proof is in the pudding.! In my opinion they are doing an excellent job. It’s small and popular, so do book and if there’s anything you don’t like just flag it up, they are only too happy to help. Well done guys. Oh yeah, it’s also located in a stunning little National Trust village, Coleshill and Buscot Estate.

Lovely pub, great menu, all well cooked good value for money

Nice Sunday lunch. Food tasty and staff were attentive and friendly. More importantly, they were lovely with the dog, bringing water and biscuits.

We had the pleasure of visiting at the weekend and and and it really was a delight. Clearly they have a new chef who has the food was spot on. This place has the atmosphere and the ambience. Everything is well well thought out with an emphasis on making guests feel safe and welcome.I will definitely be back. We'll done #teamRadnor!

Don’t want to write this review really but the standard of food and service has gone massively down hill, the couple who ran it before Covid did a great job of making you feel welcome and the food was of a very high standard. The new team that seems different every time we have gone back make it feel very disorganised, nobody seems to have any passion or customer skills, the food has gone down to quite a poor standard and the prices up. We won’t be returning until we start hearing positive reviews again, this is a shame as we used to eat there a lot

Only stopped by for a quick drink lovely country pub in a great location I was served by a very pleasant and friendly young lady full of chat and a wonderful smile made me feel very welcome.

Amazing! We came for our 5th year anniversary and it was great. Our hostess Tanya was great and very very hospitable. We asked for extra butter on our starter and the the chef himself came to deliver it, John. We had a conversation and mentioned we were here for our anniversary and he insisted on a desert on the house.. Very friendly, food was devine. Hidden gem great food with great service. We'll be back, and recommend greatly.

Food was great, beer was not quite as good.

Deep fried Camembert,Burger and “The desert” it was all perfect, great value and I would order the same again on my next visit, we sat in the garden on a warm summers evening and due to COVID we were table served throughout, I would have no hesitation in recommending the Radnor to you for a visit

Quite possibly the best burger I’ve ever had! I used to live in the USA, so the bar is set very high for what makes a great burger vs an ordinarily ok one. This was stupendous!Other diners had fish and chips (excellent) and full roast dinners (one with ‘all the meats’ where you get roast beef, pork AND chicken for £2 extra).We shared Bakewell tarts for desert which were warm, almonds and fluffy inside (with clotted cream vanilla ince cream - amazing combo!)Staff were great and keep their social distance. Plenty of hand sanitiser about and they obviously take the track and trace thing seriously as we had to register when we made our booking. Lots of outside seating which was welcome as we have a rescue doggy who needed some space.John - the chef - even came out to ask us what we thought of the food and chat about where he gets his organic veggies (all local) and the cauliflower cheese / all meat combo...As you can see from the pics - the weather was great too and we had a fantastic time. The perfect pub lunch.

We had a lovely meal here last night. The pie ,mash and veg were amazing. Definitely worth the money. Staff are all very friendly and welcoming.

We took our parents on 2nd August for a post lockdown meal out, there was 6 of us and we were seated in a great snug area to ourselves with loads of space! The food was amazing and we all left very full and satisfied! The staff are lovely and very helpful and attentive... would highly recommend to anyone! Well done to the Radnor team.

A little gem! Food is amazing, fresh local produce and great quality. The new team here are really welcoming, observing covid19 regulations but still offering a fabulous dining experience. The steak night on a Wednesday is such good value & the Sunday lunch is divine. Go try it, you wont be disappointed!

Had a great meal with great service. Highly recommended. Small cosy pub with great local atmosphere.

A great and super pub with home cooked food that is just simply delicious. They have opened post covid and doing a super job of keeping all of us safe but comfortable. The pies are just super. The chief definitely knows how to do pastry. And his pudding are just beautiful.

Fantastic food, atmosphere and friendly service! Loved the duck salad and burger, one of the best I’ve had. Definitely recommend

A beautifully located countryside pub with very friendly service. The menu focuses on locally sourced produce and classic british dishes. For starters we shared the “cotswold egg” (a scotch egg with all local ingredients) and the soup of the day. Both were very flavourful and well seasoned. For mains we ordered the fish and chips also the chicken pie. Both were fantastic good portions full of flavour and totally hit the spot. The dessert we shared the bakewell tart which brought back some great memories. Will be back again for sure.

I last visited the Radnor Arms in Autumn 2017 when it was under different management. In 2017 it was terrible, today we had a great meal and we were served by a delightful and very friendly lady.There is a short menu but it has something to suit all tastes and if it doesn't the chef is happy to adapt a dish. There is excellent beer and a good range of wines and spirits. It is a clean, warm and friendly bar/restaurant which suits walkers or those travelling by car.

Had a lovely meal here all the food was fantastic & the pub is quaint & full of atmosphere. The service wasn’t great but hopefully next time they will have got better staff m

Good points - Went for dinner at the Radnor Arms. Lovely pub, quirky and cosy. Food was nice if not a little over priced.Not so good points - staff, while being very friendly, were not well presented. I am in hospitality so maybe I see things differently, but a dress code for staff always presents a good first impression. We were sat with a view of the kitchen and were less than impressed to see one of the members of staff put their hand into a bowl of salad and shovel it into their mouth. Also equally unimpressed with the bread lying exposed on the wooden table/bench in the bar and a member of staff preparing olives there, dropping an olive onto the table, picking it up with their fingers and dropping it back into the jar! It's a lovely pub but just needs some fine tuning and an air of professionalism adding to the mix.Would we go back? Most probably not.

My new favorite pub! The decor looks great, sitting in the leftside of the pub you almost feel like your stepping back 18th century. Nice little details like the bread table in the corner. Been for a Sunday roast and Tuesday night steak, both perfect.

(Traducido por Google) Un acogedor pub atmosférico con chimeneas abiertas en las rejas.

(Traducido por Google) Esperamos 50 minutos para un sandwich. Además, solo sirve cervezas especiales (Original) Waited 50 minutes for a sandwich. Plus only serve specialty lagers

Popped in for a beer and found the staff unwelcoming. The wood burner has been removed, so they have to prop the door open to keep the fire going, so the bar is chilly. Lots of old pictures that used to show the history of the village and the old anvil have been replaced by usual gastropub citch - pity to have swept away so much to attract wallets.

(Traducido por Google) Buen domingo almuerzo y buena variedad de cervezas. Pub acogedor y volvería otra vez (Original) Good Sunday Lunch and nice range of beers. Cosy pub and would return again

Nice to see it open again, new team are lovely. The food is great and so is the pub, dog friendly, good drinks selection and a real fire, you can’t ask for much more really

This place is fantastic, great food, great drinks, 2 open fire's and a great atmosphere. Poped in on a wendsday night for a bite to eat it was absolutely perfect. Top mark's for the bar girl and the chef's

Amazing stop in for a lovely country pub with delicious soup. Only bad bit was it was cold (other costumers in coats eating!) we threw some logs on the fire and all was well. Will definitely go back and try more food

Sorry for a village local pub it was very poor no atmosphere
