The Squire Inn in South Gloucestershire

Great pub. Lovely food, attentive staff. Will 100% come back.

Came for lunch with a group of friends. Told the waitress that I am allergic to the salad in the burger. She thought this was funny and not a real allergy, so my food was brought to the table with lettuce and tomatoes on. She still thought it was funny when I pointed out what she had done and offered to bring another plate for me to place the offending items on. I wonder if she would continue to smirk if my tongue and throat had begun to swell? Maybe you would all have a great laugh when someone with a severe allergy was unfortunate enough to die as a result of your apathy?

I have been to this restaurant many times over the years, but I will not be returning. We booked a table for 5pm, when we got there, in the restaurant side there were about 4 tables occupied. Started of ok, or drinks order taken, food order taken, that was the good part, then it went down hill. The fish and chips meal the fish was thin, and nearly all batter, the portion of chips was small, not as I have this meal there before. The burger meal, the buns were very hard, so they inedible We were part way up the room, so there were no passing servers, they never came and asked if our meals were ok, they never came and asked if we wanted any more drinks. The did ask us if we wanted desserts but by this time we decided to leave, asked for the bill, when we got it we noticed that the optional service charge was already added on, we asked for it to be removed, and they did that, I feel if the service charge is optional it should not automatically be added on your bill.

Service was good however the food was not. Steak was inedible. The burger was over cooked and burnt. Would never eat here again.

The food was well cooked, service was great. A little on the steep side, but you get what you pay for. Football on TV in the background, so be prepared or try to ignore it.

Was very disappointed, steak wasn’t cooked to my liking and chewy, they said they will get that changed and the new steak came back out the same. When paying £30+ for a steak it should be done to how you want it in my opinion. My 1st time here as I have seen a lot of good reviews but I don’t recommend for the price you pay. And rude management, they don't like criticism

Just had the fish finger sandwich. Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous. Staff were super friendly and welcoming, plenty of drinks to choose from. Really nice place that has a good vibe about it. Will be back to try the Sunday roast.

This could be a fantastic place, but sadly this quality of the food, just did not match the higher than average prices, for 2 starters and 2mains, being the best part of £60, its fair to say ive had better quality food at a weatherspoons or greeneking, for less. Food orders got mixed up, and was told we was mistaken, some of the food was burnt. The menu looked great, we was looking forward to a nice meal, after a busy day, but left feeling some what disapointed and feeling ripped off.

We decided to eat in Chipping Sodbury at short notice and nowhere that was open and serving food really appealed (bank holiday evening). Heading back to the car we stumbled on the Squire. We had the risotto and one of the burgers. Absolutely fantastic food - possibly the best burger I've ever had out. Good drinks choice too. Will be back!

We booked online at really short notice (Half an hour before) Arrived and greeted by very friendly and helpful staff. Seated outside at our request and we had two lamb roasts and two kids meals both came out very quickly, all were very tasty and hot. The service was very quick and friendly. The menu was a reduced Sunday menu but very good nonetheless and the kids selections were perfect! Lovely atmosphere in the place. Nice and relaxed outside with some chilled background music. Overall great experience for our first time visiting but would definitely recommend and we will be back ourselves in the near future. Thank you for the lovely afternoon to all the team.

Lovely Sunday afternoon lunch. We had two roast dinners and two kids meals. Food came out very quickly and was piping hot and very tasty. Really enjoyed ourselves. Staff were friendly and helpful. I would recommend to anyone to try it.

Extremely disappointing visit and will not return. 2 of us were seated and told someone would be back to take drinks order. This took over 10 minutes. Meanwhile, a much larger table was seated next to us and had their orders taken. Their drink order arrived before ours had been taken. Ordered one beef roast and one lamb roast. Was average and certainly not worth the prices being charged. There are several better quality and better value roast lunches in the area. Ordered cauliflower cheese and pigs in blankets as extra. Cauliflower cheese was full of stalks and certainly not worth the £4.95 being charged. Even if this came as part of the roast, it still wouldn't make the price of £19.50 for the dinner feel any better value. It was truly awful. Pigs in blankets didn't arrive. My partner eventually caught the waitress' attention after around 10 minutes, she asked where they were....really wish she hadn't now! Waitress apologised, went straight to the kitchen and brought back a pot with 4 cold, dried up, burnt things in it. The sausage was completely dry and crumbly. Probably the worst pig in blanket I have ever tried to eat. We left these. Again, if they'd have been included in the price of the lunch, the prices being charged is still not justified. No check on us during the meal or issues would have been highlighted. Restaurant area was incredibly hot, lots of people fanning themselves with menus. By the time i'd finished lunch, I just wanted to leave. Waitress came to clear the table, still didn't ask if everything was ok. Just asked if we'd like to see the dessert menu. I replied "no, we'll just pay the bill please". Waitress said ok and disappeared. I'd already seen the dessert menu and wasn't going to pay £7.95 for any dessert after the quality of food I had already been presented with. Who can justify £7.95 for 3 scoops of ice cream anyway? I think that just proves how overpriced this place actually is! Waitress didn't come back with the bill or card machine, neither did anyone else. We waited for 20 minutes and I decided to pay on the way out. It was only after, I realised that a 10% service charge had also been added to the bill of this overpriced food. Had I realised, this would have been taken off as the service was really poor.

Had the stinky pig burger it was so tasty definitely recommend the squire been a few times ☺️

Amazing burgers & special offer on Tuesdays - 2 for £30.

Amazing food served here! Especially burgers and the nachos starter’s! Great service, place was clean and prices wasn’t ridiculous either. Lovely area we all really enjoyed this experience, highly recommend

Nice place for good food and drinks

Great food great price lovely staff

Absolute gem of a pub/ restaurant. We stopped in on a Sunday and visited the steakhouse restaurant out the back. The meat was so fresh and cooked to perfection. Very friendly staff.

Nice place and a great pub garden.

Lovely place to dine. the staff was awesome. We all come from different places across the UK, and we loved this town. Thank you

Food not bad. Would try again on a quieter night

Mega tasty food! Burger of the day was incredible 😲

I ordered a jacket potato with bbq pulled pork and cheese, it was a huge let down - flavourless and jacket potato not taste fresh. I didn’t eat all of it so it went waste. Mac and cheese was okay but again, rather flavourless. Both dishes were luke warm. The price they charge for the foods doesn’t match to its quality at all. To be honest I won’t be coming back. Very disappointing experience.

Came here for a family birthday as had heard good things about the steaks. Meat was easily as good as some expensive steak restaurants and perfectly cooked. Good atmosphere and had a great time. My only niggle is that the rest of the plate was very beige with onion rings, chips etc, would have loved the option to switch some of this to veg or salad but not a big concern. Will definitely be returning.

Great location in the center of town

Had a lovely meal here. Will be returning.

Not really sure why the restaurant staff find it necessary to be so rude. Lovely pub that serves wonderful food but the place is let down by their rudeness and misunderstanding of families with young children. They need to take a leaf from the book of the pub next door who made us feel more than welcome and not like an inconvenience.

It is an excellent place for a night out with food

Beautiful inside and out, friendly staff

Visited a few times. Always busy and the food at the back is excellent. Good selection of beer & nice garden at the back.

Excellent service and very friendly

Great staff, great food, and a wonderful atmosphere

Food is fantastic, the issue was the waitress was really pushy and was hanging around our table alot which made us uncomfortable and it was difficult to enjoy our date night as we felt it was a sit eat pay leave process and no time to actually enjoy the food or a little conversation and drinks. They also have the auto added even tho it states optional service fee/tip and normally we wouldn't have minded but in this case it was 11% and when the waitress hadn't really been a good host or made us feel welcome we asked if this could be changed to 5% ( I honestly think 0 would have been appropriate however she did seem kind of new to the role so didn't want to be to harsh), we were then asked to sit and work out how much that would be and then how much the final bill would be which was not expected ( thought she would just be like "ill be right back with an amended bill")

Have frequently this pub on a number of occasions and never had a bad experience… that’s good enough for me…! Keep it up 😁👍🏾👏🏾

The food served in this pub is simply incredible. I can't fault anything about my visit. The beer was excellent, the food was piping hot and well cooked as well as being flavoursome, the service was grand and the staff were very polite and attentive. I would highly recommend this establishment if you are in town and wish to dine out.

Fantastic food, fantastic staff. Never fails, would always recommend.

Tried the Tuesday Burger menu. Really enjoyed it, great tasting food with friendly staff. 100% recommended.

Enjoyed a great evening with four friends. Brilliant atmosphere and lovely decor. Staff were all very friendly, service was quick considering it was busy. The food was excellent, delicious as usual. Would highly recommend

Wonderful meal and fantastic service. We attended this even for my husband’s birthday. We were greeted with a glass of Prosecco and they also sang happy birthday later on in the evening. The staff when above and beyond. Lovely atmosphere, great people and even better food. Highly recommend.

Popped in here and was very impressed, nice atmosphere, great service, really good food, will definitely be back to try the steaks.

Will visit again. Service a little slow, but that applies in many eateries in these times of staff shortages.

Lovely place, faultlesd service. Roast dinner was nice but the chicken was over cooked. Vegetables were lovely

says dog friendly but don’t allow dogs.

Great location in the center of town. Excellent staff and food. Friendly locals and travelers. Cozy interior. Superb outdoor eating and drinking areas. Will do again.

Sunday lunch menu online stated 'Our roasts come served with seasoned roast potatoes, parsnips, Yorkshire pudding, cheesy leek gratin and fresh market vegetables' The actual menu and what you get is far less choice and more expensive. There is no gratin, or choice of market veg. You get parsnips on your plate with the meat, yorkie and roast potatoes (I needed my steak knife to cut the skin). Then you get carrots and red cabbage on the table. The only place I've ever had Sunday lunch and no green veg available!! No worth the £18:95.

Went out for dinner with lots of recommendations for this place so I was looking forward to it. It did not disappoint, delicious food, fantastic service, but pricey I guess that is to be expected with the standard of produce and ingredients and then the execution of cooking. The steak was cooked to how I asked the side of macaroni cheese was worth it. pudding was so so good!

It's not the cheapest prices on the block, but you donget your value for money. Having have onion rings, fries, and garlic mushrooms and peas included in a steak meal is not common for under £24 . Table booking online is easy, staff were friendly and approachable. Food and drinks came in a timely fashion. My steak was beautifully cooked and was delicious, as was all the sides. The rest of my friends were also very happy with their meals. Would happily return.

Lovely garden beautiful Sunday lunch.

Just had the hame egg and chips .absolutely phenominal , friendly staff quick service and that wiltshire ham was the best ive ever has 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beautiful Sunday lunch!! Great food, excellent service and nice atmosphere. Would definitely recommend!!

I visited the Squire with friends on Friday night. Although I have been here before, this is my first review. We had booked in advance and were shown to our table in the rear restaurant. The staff were friendly, helpful and were prompt with the drinks order and water for the table. All our party had burgers for our main meal, as this is a speciality of the restaurant. I had a 'Plain Jane' cheeseburger and chips. The burger was very tasty although the beef patty was a little dry. I wonder whether the beef patties were cooked in advance or to order. This wasn't enough to put me off though, and I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. The chips were also nicely seasoned, not greasy and crispy. I did not order a dessert as we shared a birthday cake (bought by us but presented by staff), but I was tempted by more than one item on the menu. I will be returning to the Squire to try out more items on their menu. The restaurant/pub is one of best in Chipping Sodbury and I always recommend it to visiting friends/family.

Lovely garden, tasty food great spot for a catch up with friends

Superb surprise in this shopping street... a steakhouse worthy of the name with a large, long room and a very friendly exterior. Impeccable service and a delight for the taste buds (melt-in-the-mouth meat as desired). Recommended if you are passing through.

A first time visit, and we were impressed with the roast menu, and associated starters. the beef was well cooked, and it was unusual to find carved ham on the menu, which was a rare treat. Not sure about serving it with beef gravy, and perhaps asking if it was required would be a good idea. The vegetable serving were varied and sufficient for the table. An appropriate range of sauces were available and the cranberry nicely presented in an individual jar. The service could do with a little polishing, and I had to interrupt a staff 'gossip' in the kitchen in order to find someone to pay the bill!

Best burger I've ever eaten. No contest.

Great steak. Friendly and fast service and with the pub connectee for drinks afterwards an ideal place for an evening.

Nice location, and service was fast and excellent for a busy Sunday lunch. The Sunday roast was very tasty, the meat was very good quality and the portions were very generous. The gravy sauce can be requested on the side. Desserts were very nice too. Recommended.

In a typically English setting, we ate a mixture of roasts with various vegetables, an excellent beer and to finish a delicious cheesecake, all for around 40.00 euros per person. All in all right

Sunday lunch was absolutely incredible! The beef and lamb was so tender, potatoes crispy and fluffy and home made pigs in blankets. Superb! The only slight issue was the restaurant was boiling hot, we had to use our menus to fan us. But we did open the windows etc which helped, no way a complaint though and will 100% be returning!

This is one of our favourite local restaurants near our home. The steaks and burgers are always great, and the service is prompt and polite.

Food was nice as it always is but hat to wave arms every time we wanted a drink!!! Shame when there was plenty of staff in.

Lovely food but this was let down by the really poor service. We literally had to shout and get up from our table to order more drinks and to ask for sauces…impossible to get anyone’s attention. Shame as the food was great.

We spent an afternoon in chipping Sudbury & wanted a early dinner. we could not have asked for a better stop than the squire inn. Service / food / reasonably priced will definitely visit again.

The Squire Inn can do no wrong as far as I am concerned. Food is always great, perfect place for a pint, and always a welcoming place.

Really good food and the burgers were amazing value for money. Fish & chips was also good sized portion. Looking forward to trying a steak soon. Great selection of wine, beer and gin and a lovely looking beer garden. Had quite a few gluten free options on the menu too.

The menu made it look like it was going to be decent but as soon as we walked in it was obvious that it was trying to look like something that it most certainly was not. We nearly left at this point but as we’d come quite a way to meet someone we stuck with it. The staff were a mixed bag, one lovely and one not so much. Some of my meal was served cold but my steak was quite nice although really nothing special. Another steak was dry, tasteless and chewy. Chef needs to go on a course of seasoning and sauce making, they were not good. Desserts were so basic and just standard bought in and sliced up, pop a scoop of ice cream on the side kinda things, the kind of pie they’re making a £6 profit on per slice, very posh pubby, without the posh. Serving peas as the one bit of colour on a £34 steak is unforgivable in my opinion. No self respecting restaurant is doing that these days and my one peas of advice would be to maybe try something different there. Also, either lower your prices or raise your quality as the two don’t really align right now. Although, saying that I’m really not too fussed as I won’t be going back but it might make you a little busier on a Saturday lunchtime. A note to anyone with young kids - it took nearly 2 and half hours to get served some steaks and a few desserts and the place was dead. The only things making this 2 stars were my steak and the good half of the staff’s friendliness, sadly not her attentiveness. Oh and the prices were not the same as on the website and the chips were not steakhouse chips.

Booked a table online at Friday lunch for the Friday evening. spacious tables, vast wine menu, lovely staff And of course excellent food!

Great food, clean place and lovely people!

Had a lovely meal with my family. Food was great and portion sizes plentiful. Rack of ribs wasn't what I was expecting. Ridiculous amount of meat !!

I stay in Chipping Sodsbury every year due to work commitments, and always call in to The Squire for food and drinks. Incredible steak and friendly, helpful service. Free ice cream on a Monday night with a main.

Unfortunately disappointing - overpriced. At no point during our meal, or when paying, did a staff member ask how our food was.. if they had we'd have told them! I am not sure if restaurant customers are treated better than those eating in the bar - maybe reduce the cost of the food when dining in the bar if so (and don't put a service charge on bills when you have not tended to your guests!) The 'freshly made' beef mince burger was SO dried out - so dry it was tricky to swallow. And the Veggie risotto did not arrive with the ingredients I was told it would contain. A side of chips is about £4 and the dish is tiny! Real shame as this place is a treat for someone that is on a budget - and I think I wasted my money this time!

Came here for a midweek steak lunch with my Dad. As we walked in we were met with a lovely cosy pub atmosphere and immediately greeted by staff. The Squire Inn offers food at the bar or in their restaurant. We were immediately seated and served with drinks. Both my Dad and I chose the sirlion steak from the steakhouse. Incredible food, well presented by friendly and attentive staff. Sadly we could not sample the desserts as we were both so happily full. Would highly recommend.

Friendly staff. The food was lovely.

Amazing burger and steak! The dog was also very happy.

Loved it here, the sandwiches and burgers were much bigger than we expected. The lovely lady at the bar even gave us some boxes to take the leftovers home. No way would I have left without the leftovers. Tasty food!

FOOD GOOD ATMOSPHERE OK WELCOMING GOOD PRICE 👍👍🥃🥃

Really friendly experience. Absolutely some of the best pub food I’ve had. Was there for large family gathering and the food was spot on. Good value for money. Will be back.

Absolutely fantastic food! Dropped in here last minute after work for food and managed to get a table in the bar area, great atmosphere in the place and staff were all friendly and attentive. There is a varied menu with a lot of tempting dishes on, pork burnt ends to start were great. Fillet steak was absolutely beautiful, so was the burger my colleague had and the portion sizes were very ample. The cheesecake for dessert is genuinely the best I've had anywhere! It's not the cheapest of places but the quality absolutely makes it worth it. Highly recommended this place and I will definitely be back!

The staff was super friendly. They take American Express and have a large variety of wines. The steaks were beyond delicious. Wish I could’ve tasted the deserts but I was full. The portions were big :) I would definitely come back here

I’ve been to the Squire on a number of occasions and have not had any reason to complain. On Sunday. I took three friends for a Sunday roast lunch and it was horrendous. The parsnips were raw in the middle as in crunchy and the roast potatoes looks like boiled potatoes with gravy on. They were clearly not part boiled and there was no roast on them at all and to cut them the insides was hard. I asked the manageress to address the situation and she thanked me for my feedback, and to be quite honest, she might of said nothing or words. I can’t write within this review. We were not offered a discount off the bill. Any replacement vegetables or a complimentary dessert, nothing. At £18.50 a head it felt like a complete rip off and spoiled our lunch. I did do a negative review On their website, but for some reason it does not appear, so my negative review is being filtered which is why I have chosen to post this review on TripAdvisor. There are other places along the High Street that do a really lovely Sunday lunch, so when you’re making a booking choose carefully.

My partner and I called in purely by chance as the pub over the road closed early and we wanted food. We were not disappointed! Both ordered burgers which were first rate and huge! The staff were lovely and welcoming. So happy the other pub was closed, will definitely be going back!

10/10 scran, my waiter Jacob was a absolute lad and helped me graciously, chicken Burger and crumble tasted amazing and of course served majestically by Jacob, it was like I had my own personal dining experience filled with magical twists on my culinary Journey, he made half of the experience.

Best steak we have had for a while! Felt a bit rushed to leave after we had food but it was Saturday and ver busy so

We came here today for a Sunday roast. It was excellent thank you so much! Staff were great and attentive . Will definitely be back ✨

Another visit and another superb meal. Friendly service and fabulous food as always. Portions more than enough, especially the ribs!!! Worth mentioning that if you're planning on ordering one of the larger steaks you'll need to order 24 hours before as they only keep a limited supply. They do say this on the website though to be fair. Will be back again soon.....

Great food, large portions for the price. Will go again

Becoming a regular on burger night Tuesdays! Last night was probably my favourite visit. The bacon double cheeseburger combination was fab. On par with the Christmas burger for sure! Fantastic service as usual and having heard the chef was quite new, burgers were cooked to absolute perfection. 5 Stars!

Nice food, location good, restaurant is okay

Fantastic Sunday lunch and lovely service. Such a great pub

We had a lovely afternoon meal at the squire today in the restaurant. Many thanks to the staff for getting us a table for 5 last minute. The pub was very busy due to the mop fair. Food was fantastic and service superb! The waitress was so good with our little girl. Only downside was the meal was slightly ruined by another customer being extremely rude to the waitress. Her attitude was disgusting towards the staff and it was unnecessary. Squire staff, you were incredible and keep up the good work! We can't wait to visit again 😊

After eating at the Squire a number of times last night meal with friends very disappointing namely the whole of our groups chips were undercooked which was such a shame as we have have had some great meals with no problems before.

After visiting the Sodbury Steakhouse a number of times before will booked a table with friends as a brithday treat, the service was as always good but on this occasion everyones chips were under cooked with a " earthy taste "

We had a fabulous family meal at the steakhouse. Food was amazing, we all had different meals and loved it all. Even our toddler devoured hers. Staff, brilliant as usual. Friendly, attentive, helped with organising balloons during the day and bringing out cake and candles for the birthday boy after the meal. Even gave us a goodie bag with ribs to take home (there were so many and we didn't want to waste anything). We had a really nice evening. Thanks guys 😊

Beautiful Roast Beef Sunday dinner

What a superb meal. The food was fantastic and the atmosphere was relaxed. It can be expensive but depends on what you chose. We gas the 24oz Porterhouse steak, and it melted in your mouth. Fully recommend

Absolutely excellent meal. Good value for the quality.

Absolutely lovely. Friendly, welcoming staff, amazing food, warm and cosy almost perfect. Why not perfect I hear you say? No IPA on tap, however the cider was fine .

Food is usually great but today my order was wrong, not gluten free, although requested, steak not tender. Staff recified gf meal, and were great as usual.

Great food reasonably priced, good service
