The Rising Sun in South Oxfordshire

Fantastic roast .. Great food always .. Thank you All of us and the baby happy .. Found a different High chair for her .. Went out of your way.

Just dropped in to get away from storm Ciaran. What a find! Lovey country pub with log burning stoves, good draught ales, a warm welcome. Stayed for a good lunch. And dog friendly to boot. Stanley met some new chums! Woof!

Right from booking our table, through to welcoming us to the pub/table, taking our orders and keeping us happy the staff and food were just superb. The staff were courteous, polite and helpful and the food was just divine. Beautifully cooked Belly of Pork and Turkey, accompanied by a selection of fresh vegetables, cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes, stuffing and a fluffy Yorkshire Pudding. Dessert was just as good - two of us had the Triple Chocolate Sundae and one had the Sticky Toffee Pudding. We did not find fault with anything. Pub and toilets are clean and all well laid out.

Heard good things on the grapevine, so decided to visit on chance. Pie of the week for me and 6oz steak for Madam. Both very good with quick and friendly service....at a reasonable price. We shall return

What a gem to find. We visited this pub after a lovely walk in the area and we were very pleasantly surprised. The exterior of the pub is gorgeous, with beautiful flowering baskets everywhere and a very well kept garden with plenty of seating. As the pub is off the road, its really peaceful, a great place to sit and relax with a drink and food. We visited with friends and each of us had a different main course. All the food was delicious and the burger was huge, clearly home made and very tasty. The service was attentive and friendly. This is our first time here and won't be our last. A really fabulous country pub 👌 ❤️

I was one of a large group of runners and walkers who lunched here (AFTER our exercise!) As its pictures show, this is a quintessential English country pub, almost invisible from the road - but well signposted - and set at the back of a large garden for outdoor dining. The interior is equally attractive. Given our number, we had all pre-ordered: I was eligible to choose the 'vintage' offer of a reduced size main, in my case a chicken & bacon Caesar's Salad, and similarly downsized desert of chocolate brownie and ice cream for a set price: great value. We bought our drinks and paid our bills at the bar before the food was brought outside quickly and efficiently: name called out, hand up, plate in front of you! Given the good weather, it all made for an excellent day out.

A stunning country pub with fantastic staff. I found the Rising Sun on TripAdvisor and we were not disappointed. The outside of the pub is beautiful with stunning hanging baskets. The inside was very welcoming, all the staff deserve my 5* review. The food was delicious. Thank you for a super evening.

Great lunch and service! Generous portions, homemade chips to die for and fabulous- and efficient staff. Very clean and nicely decorated. 3 of us had 2 main meals (ham, egg and chips) and 1 baguette of the day with chips. 2.5 pints of various drinks and 3 luscious desserts. £30 each including tip. Will be back!

Popped in for lunch after a visit to the nearby National Trust at Greys Court. What a fabulous find, from the minute we arrived to the minute we left we felt very welcomed by both the staff & locals & not forgetting Floyd the gorgeous dog 🐶 Ordered the sharing ploughman’s platters which was just so lovely with a great spread of cheese, meats & other bits including pasta & Greek salad. Definitely worth a visit & if I’m in the area again I’ll definitely be back.

This is a gem of a pub. We have been three times in different seasons, sitting inside snd outside. The manager and her staff are always welcoming and caring and the atmosphere is great. The food is also excellent. Last week we were three people and we shared five starters and three puddings. Every dish was a delight to the palate: the pork belly pieces were the best I've ever had. The draught beer is perfect too. We look forward to our next visit.

Great Brakspear pub, large garden with good food. During the week they have a lunch special ‘veteran meals’ - smaller main and pudding for £14 excellent idea !! Good quality beer and the pub has the Cask Mark to show the quality. Some lovely walks near by Definitely worth the visit

Nice village pub. Well run by management that care. Sunday lunch is good. Pet friendly, and they have some good summer events.

My husband and I visited today for lunch. After a local dog walk this was the perfect lunchtime stop. Welcoming staff, cosy pub bar and a roaring fire! We took our seats by the window with plenty of space for our two greyhounds. The menu was varied and it was hard to narrow it down, but we chose crispy chilli beef and minute steak, both meals perfectly cooked and really tasty. We were even tempted to have puddings, which were equally delicious! Can’t wait to visit again and next time we will bring the children as we are sure they would love it too!

Really excellent Sunday Lunch. Generous high quality Sunday roast with great meats, vegetables, gravy and Yorkshire. Good selection of mains and desserts. Also enjoyed the Sticky toffee pudding with custard. Very friendly welcome and service. Efficient, and pleasant. Great beer (gravity). Good value. Nice atmosphere, comfortable and clean.

Such a wonderful welcome, friendly and cosy pub with an open fire. On the online booking form, I put it was for a birthday and they decorated our table, made it even more special. Have already recommended this pub to a couple of people. A hidden gem. Thank you for such a lovely afternoon.

The food used to be pub food done very well. Now it's just very average. Veg either almost raw (which I liked) or so overcooked it is like school dinners (which is so 1970s retro). The rest - meh! together it needs to try much harder. Staff are super polite - just not that well trained. e.g. £5 for one teacup of hot chocolate. Seriously? It just aint that good - zero ambience and it was quite cold inside. Charge me more I don't care but make it good not deeply average please.

Sunday lunch with family - pleased to find the Rising Sun has returned to good form (decent portions, well cooked, very pleasant service), after a bit of a 'hiatus around 2018.

Witheridge Hill at Highmoor Cross is a bit off the beaten track, but my ancestor came from there so we went there for a day trip. The staff at the pub were super friendly and the food was great. Its a Breakspears Pub so my husband loved the real ale. I f you are in the area I would highly recommend it. The advantages over lunching at Henley on Thames were more peaceful and free parking. If you want to pop down to Henley its not far, but I would definitely eat here first.

The service was excellent, staff couldn’t do enough for us. Wasn’t waiting too long for drinks and food even though they were busy. When the food came it was well presented and was amazing we both cleared our plates, couldn’t fault anything. Great evenings entertainment with the open the mic night, which showcases quality local artists!!! Also dogs are welcome as well! Will be visiting again for sure! Highly recommended

Great food, great beer and great, friendly service in a tucked away location. A lovely, traditional pub. Would highly recommend.

With a group of friends we went for Sunday lunch. Food choice and quality was very good and you certainly couldn't grumble about the portion sizesBut the enthusiastic and friendly service wasn't up to scratch. Half our drinks order was delivered but the other half of the order didn't appear so we had to go chasing it. A tureen of gravy, together with two bowls of cauliflower cheese was put on the table about ten minutes before the meat was brought to us. The server didn't seem to see this as strange1All in all we enjoyed our meal but poor service when the pub was quite quiet stops me rating this as excellent overall.

My husband and I had an excellent Sunday lunch at The Rising Sun. the staff were friendly and helpful and the portions were very generous. It was very pleasant sitting in the garden with a glass of sangria.

Excellent food in a very relaxed atmosphere! The Steaks and Chocolate Brownies were great. Friendly staff and good service make this a go to destination!

The current management has put this pub up to the top of our favourite list again. We’ve eaten here a few times recently - as a couple, with a group of friends and even for my hen do. The food has always been spot on but most importantly, the atmosphere and service is what every pub should aspire to. Simple things like calling to check if we wanted a table outside as the weather was going to be good! When planning my hen do, Kate was super helpful, enthusiastic and personable. She prepared a perfect sharing menu and made sure we were well looked after all evening. The staff were lovely - really attentive but not pretentious at all and we had the secret garden to ourselves. Can’t recommend this pub enough! We eat out a lot and what really stands out is their passion for what they do. Looking forward to spending many more happy times here :)

The pub and surrounds were looking glorious as we came up the garden path for our Father's Day lunch. We were immediately looked after by the attentive and well trained young staff and a lovely tempo was maintained throughout our meal. The roast chicken and roast pork options (best tasting pork I've had in a long time) came with all the usual accompaniments - excellent! The mussels were so fresh, with a finger licking garlic, white wine and cream sauce - my 91 year old father didn't speak throughout, he was enjoying his lunch so much. Added to that, he chose the banoffee ice cream sundae which topped off his special day. This is the second time we've eaten out recently at The Rising Sun, which also serves a fine SA Chenin Blanc and a well kept Brakspear Oxford Gold, and we will be back soon. Recommend a visit.

First meal inside a pub for quite a while for obvious reasons, with my wife away for a couple of days went with my son having seen their Steak Night advertised.The staff were really friendly and attentive, the food was delicious and great value and we both thought the quality of the steaks was first class.I will definitely be going back soon.

i do love this pubthe chilled enivronment, the cool staff, friendly too. i sometimes feel uncomfortable in pubs but not once herei had the beefburger with mash instead of chips and the adjustment was not an issuewas able to chill with my book by the fireplace in peacefor me the ambiance, surrondings and staff made it i look forward to visiting again

Any pub that gives you your own gravy boat is going to get huge brownie points! The new owner (from Jan 2020) has obviously worked hard to create a friendly pub with a great menu. There are the usual pub favourites but some lovely more unusual additions. My husband’s curry and my lamb were delicious. Great service, felt totally covid safe and well looked after throughout. The our doggy adored the doggy warm sausages!

A beautiful country pub in idyllic surroundings. The meal we had was superb. The burger is one of the best in the area and is a little less expensive than most too. The garden is lovely to sit out in, but when there was a sudden downpour the staff made room for us inside and were very proactive in helping us move, even in these times where distancing and restrictions have to be maintained. Excellent food at very competitive prices - this pub is a hidden gem but one that is well worth finding.

My son and were delighted when one of our favourite spots had a table available at short notice. Unfortunately the roast beef was a bit average, roast potatoes rather soggy and it all took quite a while to arrive. Was nervous that none of the staff chose to wear face masks (I KNOW it’s not mandatory). I love this pub and was sad this meal was less than wonderful.

We went for Sunday lunch and were pleasantly surprised by this pub. The pub itself is about 10 minutes outside of Henley and has good parking and is a very traditional old fashioned country pub with a nice atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive and the Sunday roasts were very tasty, with fresh vegetables, rather than frozen. I asked for my meal extra-hot and this was done without any problems and the temperature was perfect. The menu is simple and straightforward, this is traditional pub food and not a gastro-pub- so if that is what you are looking for this pub ticks all the boxes.

Great pub food, unpretentious, prepared very well and good service. They’ve sorted themselves for Covid well.

Dropped by for midweek meal in the evening. I had minute steak, and real fries made from real potatos, not deep fried pre frozen, steak cooked to perfection, Husband had Butternut squash curry, with added chicken, very tasty. Best meal Ive had eating out for a while, will be back!

We thoroughly our Sunday lunch at the Rising Sun. Great food, attentive service and a lovely setting. Looking forward to going back to this gem of a pub!

We were booked to eat outside but unforecast rain ended that idea. Inside half of the tables had been removed and the social distancing measures applied and stuck to by the staff. A 'traditional' English Country Pub, we stumbled across the Rising Sun on the recommendation of a friend, tucked away in Witheridge Hill near Henley. Good pub food and good portions. The Fish 'n' Chips' should be called 'Whale 'n' Chips' We also had muscles, burger and steak. Well cooked, beautifully presented, and all delivered to the table, hot and at the same time. A varied dessert menu and a good choice of beer and wine. We will definitely be going back. Dogs welcome.

We enjoyed a wonderful evening in this hidden gem. We received a very warm welcome from the friendly staff. The food and service was outstanding. Very careful measures to ensure Covid safety had been taken, spaced out tables, sanitised menus and attention to touch points. We felt reassured and in safe hands. What I would really like to mention, is that both my daughter and I are gluten intolerant. It is so nice to see such a vast choice including fish and chips and onion rings, neither of which my daughter or I have had in a pub setting since we were diagnosed. So it makes a lovely change to not have to choose from about 2/3 things.We'll definitely be back.

Had a lovely pint served by a ginger bartender who was very accommodating, it’s a lovely pub with a nice pub garden

Cracking food, good atmosphere in a nice garden. Staff are friendly and attentive! Nice beers on tap, the Brakspear Oxford Gold is a favourite of mine. Juicy beef burger and mushroom starter was delicious. I will be coming again soon!

Perfect out door seating for a barmy summers night. The Morreti lager was outstanding, as it should be. The Chek lager was hammy, like the pipes needed cleaning. My spiced bean burger was insulting to beans and vegetarians, but the butternut curry just about saved it. There wasn't much else to choose from. Perhaps the menu was designed for Boris's 2 4 1 deal Monday to Wednesday, meagre choice with zero frills. It wasnt until the next morning some thoughts occurred to me; should garnishing a curry with watercress instead of coriander be allowed? When a waiter expresses his disgust at the food in jest, is it Freudian? Like I said, the Moretti beer was outstanding.

Very disappointed at the reduced menu for the Eat out and help Out deal. My husband and I had the chicken burger which was very dry and over cooked. Certainly won’t visit again

Kate & the team have done a fantastic job; transformed garden, friendly staff, great service, really good value, super food.

We visited The Rising Sun a week ago, I was able to book a table in the garden for just drinks, the service was super, lovely, friendly staff. Perfect setting for a long and lazy Birthday celebration!! Thank you so much.

Really polite and friendly staff. We had butternut squash curry which was very nice. Lovely quiet surroundings

Cosy pub with a gorgeous garden. Food was the best pub food I’ve ever had no exaggeration!The staff are so warm and friendly. The 2 dogs and kitten are so cute and we will definitely be returning!

Stopped in for lunch after a nice dog walk in the area. Staff have invested a lot of time, effort and money into providing a safe and as near normal experience as possible. Only had a snack but it was excellent and good value. Will definitely be back.

Nice food yesterday evening - we had toad in the hole and chocolate brownie / bread and butter pudding. It was delicious. Very friendly staff too. Thanks team for an enjoyable evening.

Visited mid week for an evening meal with beers.... Very friendly welcome from all the staff including the new managers. The menu was really good, concentrating on locally grown ingredients, and the food was excellent with generous portions. Well worth a visit (or two) if you are in the area.

Good Sunday afternoon drink, at last the rain had stopped, great hospitality, and dogs very welcomed.Located in a rural location, inclusive of a pub garden and parking.

Following a lovely walk round Peppard today with girlfriends we stopped for lunch at The Rising Sun in Witheridge Hill. Fabulous new hosts gave a warm, friendly welcome; great hospitality and amazing food - proper home made pub food at it's best! We chose from the 'Light Lunch' menu - I had the broccoli, spinach and stilton soup served with crusty bread - the best soup I have ever had and my friend had the scotch egg and salad (black pudding and pork) which again, my friend said was the best ever! ..... and their chocolate brownie is to die for! I definitely recommend a visit!

First visit, made to feel very welcome. Had our dog, sat in dining room by window, lovely and warm on a cold wet day. Food delicious, couldnt fault it. Will definitly return very soon

What an amazing couple Will and Kate are!The moment we walked in to this lovely pub we were welcomed with a smile and warm greetings. We had some some starters and a split pea deep with veggie crisps was delicious. I can’t wait to try some of their main dishes and of course a Sunday lunch that everyone has been raving about!They have two beautiful dogs, Floyd and Ada and our puppy got friends with already. Great beginning to our local pub, soon to enjoy a refreshment in the garden!Thanks guys and see you very soon!

Fantastic to see & feel a positive buzz. My wife ,dog Pablo & I are elated with the caring, genuine and yet quirky open & honesty of Will & Kate and their positive vibe. Yes - it takes time & investment to shine through the knowledge, Skill & attitude but they are certainly giving this a damn good bash . Early days yet . Well done food was great, standards growing , fresh tasty creamy pint 99.9% and talking it through with the new owners - “ watch this space “. It all will unfold slowly but surely . Full support with open , honesty & respect from us. “ Use it or lose it “ and please support this “ Hidden Gem” . We are proud to call it “our local”. Nice TommyG

New owners very accommodating .. great Sunday lunch ... with all the trimmings lamb and chicken cooked to perfection .. even offered extra roasties .. they take dogs which is always a bonus and walking distance from home .. at long last a local pub ..

New owners have taken over recently and things are looking good, they had a lovely opening night for the locals. Nice to have our local pub back

Great, traditional local pub with fire burning and locally sourced home cooked food waiting for us when we arrived midway through our wet and muddy mounting bike ride. I was full of cold and my sock and shoes were wet. What a warm welcome we received! Will and Kate the new landlords didn’t turn an eye when I asked for hot water for my Lemsip instead of my usual local tipple, the residents pups watched my shoes as they dried by the fire, Kate cooked a fantastic cauliflower cheese and toasted sour dough ( the cheese was made from up the road) and when it came to leaving my socks still weren’t dry. Can’t believe Kate sent me on my way with a dry pair of her own. What amazing service, made my afternoon of riding so much more enjoyable after this pit stop. Can’t wait to go back!

Kate and Will the new landlady and landlord did a wonderful welcome party for locals and friends last night with free glass of fizz and canapés. Had fish and chips last Friday which were great with fresh peas and homemade tartare sauce. Have heard lots of good reports and they’ve only been there for two weeks. Vegan options available. Locally sourced food on menu.

This was the first time visiting the Rising Sun with my partner and daughter. It was a lovely dog friendly country pub with a roaring fire. There were plenty of games to entertain my 3 year old (and games for older kids / adults).

Do no go there until they improve the menu and speed up the service! The pub used to serve fantastic food and even when very busy the service was excellent, not at the moment although I am sure all will improve when the new owners find their feet. Very disappointing compared to previous visits.

We had a very nice meal last night at the rising sun. Decent pub menu and excellent service. Would happily go back.

Sandwich lunch at the Rising Sun yesterday. What a find! If you're visiting nearby Henley it's well worth making the effort to locate this little gem, tucked away off the beaten track in the tiny hamlet of Witheridge Hill - but fortunately well signposted off the main road.

We wanted somewhere for lunch that would be cosy, Christmassy and with good food. We were not disappointed! The Rising Sun offers excellent food, excellent service and a warm cosy atmosphere. I had the cauliflower soup which was delicious. Other family members had the homemade pies which looked really good. We all had the blackberry and apple crumble with custard for dessert. Extra custard was also brought along which was lovely. All the food tasted homemade and freshly cooked. This was my first trip to the Rising Sun and it wont be my last. I noticed also that there was a huge pile of board games available, what a nice idea.

A simple pub lunch - pie, chips: very well done and presented. A Friday lunchtime visit; I didn't have the beer, but was confident in what they had at the bar. The atmosphere was fine, service good, and it felt welcoming on what might otherwise have been a dead weekday lunchtime. Close to Henley, easy parking, quiet setting, spic, span and cute, the Rising Sun is a place to re-visit. I will.

Fairly quiet on the day of our visit, having chosen the pub based on TA reviews and finding a number of pubs in the area were closed on Mondays.

Really pretty ordinary - at best. The staff were friendly, the room uncomfortable and the food basic/poor.

Used to get a hearty welcome, but not here with new publican. It is a lovely spot and still popular, but was told was fully booked for Sunday lunch. Won’t be hurrying back as loads of other more welcoming pubs nearby.

Had lunch here today. It was quite full for a Saturday lunchtime and so off the beaten track. Very good food, well priced, attentive staff, dogs welcome and a wood burner. In fact, all the reasons why a country pub, off the beaten track does well. Portions are huge and welcome warm and genuine. Worth finding.

I had a wonderful second visit at The Rising Sun after an extensive trek along Rotherfield Greys, Greys Green, Shepherd's Green, Satwell and Witheridge Hill! The waiter was considerate all along and the service was outstanding! My main meal was a chicken leg with Puy lentils, pancetta and cavolo nero and my dessert was a jam roly poly with custard! They were both flavourful! Overall this pub is very calm and friendly!

This was a meal of two halves. I have food allergies and I was delighted that I could have everything on the main course. Wonderful, I thought, maybe I will actually be able to have a pudding as well if they are that good. Alas, when it came to pudding there was nothing I could eat. Apart from that annoying part, the food was good, the staff lovely and the place generally a delight.

Went here steered by TA and wasn’t disappointed. The food was definitely up a notch on many very decent pub restaurants we have visited. Also my wife is vegetarian and she was very happy with her linguine dish. My elderly Mother in law went for the curry but couldn’t cope with the spice - her problem not the chefs and it was replaced without fuss with a very nice lamb dish. My battered fish was the best I’ve enjoyed in ages - not overwhelmed by batter so that you could taste the fish.

Food was excellent, we had steak and ale pie from the specials menu, and beef shin stew with dumpling. Service was friendly, we had to wait a while for the pie to be made and it was worth it. Lovely old unpretentious pub

Lovely setting. Super food. Very friendly service. A must visit pub in the Oxfordshire countryside. Excellent walks in the area.

After a 6 mile walk through some beautiful countryside and woodland the Rising Sun was a welcome watering hole. But much more than that we had a great fish lunch sitting outside in the early autumn sunshine. Idilic setting, great food, friendly staff - hard to ask for much more really.

Beautiful traditional countryside pub. Very good pint, very good quality home prepared food and friendly service. Also a nice selection of board games indoors for children so the family had a great time. Will be back.

We saw an ad on Facebook for a curry night. The food was absolutely excellent - full of flavour and delightfully spiced.The staff were friendly and the whole atmosphere was great. I don't know how often they have curry nights but, if our experience was anything to go by, I feel sure all their food would be delicious.

Met family for lunch here on Wednesday and was looking forward to some lovely food.

We came in and had booked a table for four. We were shown the standard menu but was also shown the specials menu.

This has become one of my favourite places to come and eat, relax. Came in on Sunday had a great meal for 2, (still thinking about it) in a relaxed atmosphere, my partner a avid walker is trying arrange a walking group to try lunch really lovely.

This was our third visit to the rising sun, as my son had only come out of hospital and wanted a calm and relaxed place to go.

My brother , sister in law and myself, returned to this pub for an evening meal , having previously had a really good lunch ( we had a selection of the tapas , which were superb).

Very good Sunday lunch with excellent service. Dog friendly bar & restuarant. Local walks. Good beer. Relaxed atmosphere.

We stopped here on route on our motorbike. The service was lovely and friendly. Food was INCREDIBLE. Amazing country pub and garden, secluded and peaceful.

The minute you go through the entrance the first thing you notice is the stale smell , nothing to do with the “shabby chic” style, they simply need a deep clean throughout. This was the only negative as the food – even simple traditional dishes – was absolutely first-class, every detail of every dish was prepared to perfection. Very pleasant service from the staff who almost seemed to outnumber the customers at one point. But sadly I did find the standard of housekeeping offputting, and would not rush to invite or recommend to others, a pity since they have got the key elements right.

We tried this pub on the basis of the reviews and our belief that we had been there some years ago.

Visited for the first time today after recommendations and we were very impressed, friendly welcome, attentitive staff and great roasts, we went for the trio of roasts (Beef, Lamb & Pork) and it was huge, plenty of meat accompanied by roast and mash potato's, parsnips, yorkshire with stuffing ball, cauliflower and brocolli in cheese sauce aswell as carrots and spring greens, as much gravy as you wanted and basket of bread, we were looking forward to the eton mess pudding but just couldn't manage it. will definately return and highly recommend.

My wife and I popped out for a quick drink and bite to eat. We had a burger and good old fish and chips washed down by some excellent Brakspeare’s bitter and a couple of glasses of wine. Both dishes were delicious and exactly as you would have hoped.

This was the second time I have been here, not being local I arrived 15 minutes late but that didn't seem to worry the staff, who as well as being busy managed to remain pleasant and attentive throughout the time we were there. Recommend the daily pie, which was made from scratch and with the included veg etc was a very good size meal for the price.

We were warned that there was a wait for food on a busy Sunday service, but when the food arrived it was a let down.

We have rented a cottage quite close to the Rising Sun and gave it a try on our first evening. Nice local atmosphere. Good food: I had a delicious red mullet. Dog friendly, so we could take our lab. Amicable service. Reasonable wines. Perhaps the only drawback is that the menu is quite limited. In our case we were lucky with the daily specials. But we decided to explore The Crooked Billet and The Greyhound the next evenings because of their wider range of choices. However, for a simple and pleasant evening meal, the Rising Sun is recommended! On a warm day, you can also sit outside!

I had the Brie and roasted red pepper sandwich which was toasted to perfection and delicious. Son had the burger which looked great and he enjoyed.

This pub has been a favourite of mine for at least 15 years. It has all the qualities of the classic English country local - an unspoiled, old building in a quiet, traffic free country setting. Sit inside in its unspoiled, unmodernised bar with a log fire in winter among the bar chat, or in good weather sit outside at picnic tables against a background of birdsong. From pub grub, some years ago the kitchen upped it's quality to near gastro quality but still at reasonable prices. Sadly that management departed and now the menu is singularly uninspired, back to basic pub grub.

We were looking for a traditional pub as we were visiting Stonor Park. The new manager was incredibly friendly, and made sure that we and everyone there was getting everything they needed. Beautiful setting, and i'm looking forward to going back in winter as the intereior was a truly historic pub setting. Outside could use a bit of design work to make it as charming as the inside, but the buidling is too charming for words, food was some of the best trad pub food i've had, and serivce wonderful!!

A tremendous Oxfordshire pub with good quality food! I had a chicken curry with basmati rice along with naan bread, a poppadom and mango chutney followed by an apple crumble with custard for dessert! Both the main meal and dessert were absolutely divine! The waiter and waitress were both considerately friendly as well as welcoming and additionally the service was outstanding! I would absolutely return to this Brakspear pub again!

Staying with friends for the regatta for the next couple of days, we all said we would try this place as my friends parents had recently had lunch there and thoroughly enjoyed it.

It was busy today as Fathers Day, however the food was excellent, the service perfect and I am looking forward to my next visit.

Before making a booking do check when the kitchen's close (we were rather rushed into making menu choices) The food was very good & the service was friendly. The gardens are nice. We will go back again & book an earlier slot.

Lovely tucked away pub in beautiful location. Welcoming and friendly. Great beer. Food better than average. Great affordable kids menu.

Beautiful, welcoming, phenomenal food, amazing ambiance, excellent service and hospitality from the great staff!

Es muy agradable encontrar un pub tradicional con un bonito jardín en un entorno rural encantador. Fuimos a almorzar mientras probábamos uno de los tres paseos circulares que comienzan desde el pub (las rutas a pie están disponibles en el pub, así como los mapas del sistema operativo para pedir prestado). El personal es acogedor y amable, el almuerzo era delicioso y el pub tiene un ambiente muy agradable.

Had a lovely lunch and everyone enjoyed their meals. The service was great with all staff very friendly and professional. Lovely location in a pretty village tucked away

On a quiet Tuesday evening we found this excellent pub. The rustic modern decor, the soft but good lighting and the homely feel of the place was restful and idyllic. The service was excellent and the food really tasty. We had a wonderful evening finishing off with a scrumptious toffee pudding with salted caramel ice cream. Very yummy.
