The Three Pigeons Witney in West Oxfordshire

Went in to grab a quick drink before they closed 4 people in there and 1 barmaid who didn't even look up from her phone so no greeting or anything so we walked straight back out again and went to another pub which was more welcoming

We stayed with friends in Witney, who took us to the Three Pigeons where we have an evening meal. Absolutely no complaints, very friendly management and staff, good selection of Ales, and a quite varied, and relatively for Oxfordshire reasonably priced meals. The meals were all excellent, hot and very tasty. I had the prawn cocktail for starters and it was amazing, almost a meal in itself, when I have been to other places, and have counted barely 6 prawns in the concoction. So all in all good value for money. A very enjoyable evening, in a lovely public house. We will certainly come again.

Excellent pub food (mainly English). Large portions. Friendly, attentive service. Good, tasty wines. Quiet restaurant. Socially distanced. Very good ambiance. Excellent location overlooking Wood Green in Witney. Can book.

Great food, very friendly staff and brilliant with the dogs. All round a lovely pub although the garden is not very pretty but if you want good food and good service then this is the place!

Group of 4 friends in the area for a few days, wanted Sunday lunch so without knowing anywhere in the area booked here. Staff very friendly, meal was very nice and very good value for money. Hubby couldn't decide which pudding he wanted so told them to bring him anything - he had Sal's sticky toffee pudding and scrapped the bowl clean Would defo return if in the area again.

We held a family gathering here. The food was very typically 'pub food', but it was what we wanted, and was very good. Staff were very friendly and welcoming, and we really enjoyed our time there

Went for a girlie meal last Friday, I ordered the Homemade Pie mmm not so sure it was to be honest looked uncooked soggy mush on top filling was okay, pretty standard on chips and peas typical frozen pub food. My friends had gammon steak, beef steak and a vegetable curry which were as expected. Just a shame waitress if so called was didn’t provide a good service. Once mains were finished and plates taken not once were we asked if would like Coffee another drink or dessert too busy chatting to male company at bar, then I guess her shift finished she left didn’t even get us the bill. I think advise needed on waiting tables, even other staff ignored us.

Stopped by for a easy and gluten free meal. Mum behind the bar and daughter serving the dinning room . Cheap easy night and they understood gluten free so \i was happy. Had a roasted Squash vegetable soup a little too much pepper for me my husband had the Wednesday night steak special. A good night

A great pub just off the main high street. Very reasonable prices (compared to restaurants in the town). Food quality was excellent, all home cooked, hot food and plentiful. Staff very friendly, good peaceful location. 3 pigeons burger-highly recommended.

Very friendly pub and nice food too. Good to see a pub catering for small lunches. Nice setting and would revisit

Really friendly locals and staff. Great beer and excellent food at really great prices. Try the Wednesday steak night. Great value. Very dog friendly and tourist friendly!!!!!

Just celebrated my 80th birthday at my local. Always the same friendly, welcoming, homely atmosphere. I was joined by 34 family and close friends for a wonderful lunchtime step-and-fetch. All truly memorable. Thank you.

Dog friendly pub that served tasty, hot food, lots on menu, reasonably priced, nice little playground and big green across the road great for the children and dogs.

Could not fault this pub. Efficient service, top class food at very reasonable prices. Thanks Sophie for your service and accommodating us when we arrived an hour early for our booking. You will definitely be seeing us again. Highly recommend the Goan curry, delicious!!

My partner and I visited the three pigeons in June. We both had steaks at cooked medium well. The pub is well above average, with very delightful food and staff. I'll definitely be visiting again!

Sunday roast, proper gravy a couple of Yorkshire's and veg we enjoyed it immensely. Had the roast chicken followed by sticky toffee and ice cream couldn't fault it , in fact would recommend it

Had home made vegetable soup to start really tasty then the steak pie very nice could have done with a bigger portion but very nice.

Called in for lunch, having left M40 in a hold up. Told there was no food as they had shut the kitchen. (It was 1.50 pm!) Then told they could make us something but not a Ploughman’s as they couldn’t do baguettes after 1.40 pm and they stop serving food at 2.00pm.

The Three Pigeons Witney, was one of the best pub/restaurants we have dined at. The service was first class, and coped with our larger party of 8 that included a child was excellent, even offering a child's menu. Dealt with our different menu choices without a problem, even though its was a busy Saturday evening. All food was eaten without any redress to flavour or quantity. The menu choice was quite large for a small restaurant well done.

We were made welcome by the locals at this pub on Wood Green in Witney. The London Pride was well kept. Their menu offered good pub food at very reasonable prices. The service by a variety of young ladies behind the bar was friendly and efficient. I believe there are joint landlord/landlady. The latter who looks after the food side. There is however very little interaction with the landlord which is strange.

A homely traditional pub served me the best vegetarian curry I have ever had tonight . Busy but firendly servivce. Good London Pride ( and other) bitters. just over a tenner for a pint and the curry. Specials most nights...all at very reasonable prices.

Servizio veloce e cortese. Piatti classici inglesi, abbondanti e poi economici. Nel complesso molto buono.

We found this pub/restaurant for Sunday Lunch, the surroundings were interesting, and ambiance comfortable, (No loud music to interrupt conversation)

We are a group that regularly has an evening meal at the Three Pigeons. This time there were ten of us. Everyone was very positive about the evening. Good food that was well cooked and hot. Excellent, friendly service. Next date already booked.

Amazing 8oz rump steak for £5.95 as a special! Cooked to perfection and served with chips, onion rings and peppercorn sauce with the option of adding other sides. Such great value, yummy food and a lovely atmosphere! Would definitely recommend!

Kitchen was closing as we arrived but staff were willing to take a last minute order and service was quick. Dog friendly in the bar.

We had lunch here on a Saturday in November. Service was friendly and reasonably quick. Food was very decent and reasonably priced.

This is a small, very old and very friendly pub by a Church on the green. A perfect setting. The building appears to be a number of terraced cottages converted and presents as very cosy.

this is a traditional public house which is very welcoming and the food is always hot and freshly cooked (advise to pre booked meal first ) and is very reasonable price and good selection of choice I whould rercommend this place

My daughter was married at Witney Registry Office and travelled the short walking distance to the pub. We were warmly welcomed by our hosts who had reserved the restaurant for our party of 20. The food came quickly and efficiently and was of the highest quality. We felt valued customers and I cannot recommend others to use this marvellous family run concern enough. Thank you for making our day so special

We found this pub to be a very welcoming venue in which to relax and enjoy a meal. Upon arrival we were seated at a pre-booked table, offered drinks and given menus.

We both had a meal, service was great. The meal was excellent and good value for money. I would recommend this place to all.

Proper village green pub serving good value pub grub, no frills, very polite and friendly staff, Sunday roast £6.55p !!! you can't go wrong, well worth a visit

Local pub, classic but very good pub food. Service was good and food tasted great. Good value for money.

This is what a proper pub is all about good food friendly staff if i lived local this would be my local thank you

Génial ! Ce fut un super moment. Nous étions en famille avec 3 enfants. Le dîner était très bon. Le prix correct et le service très bon. La serveuse attentionnée. Un perroquet dans une cage nous a fait l'animation en parlant, sifflant et claquant la langue. Nous recommandons.

This pub has a great atmosphere and good food. The locals are friendly and dogs are welcome. The parrot can be annoying when he squawks for crisps!

Arranged a meal with a large group of firefighters and friends to raise money for a charity. The pub were brilliant from the booking straight through to puddings. The staff were friendly and accommodating and the food was amazing. Good portion sizes, so yummy and a great menu which caters for all dietary requirements. The atmosphere was lovely and I highly recommend eating here! Thank you!

The pub has a great community feel with locals sitting around the bar but the resturant area was empty at 8.45pm on a Saturday evening.Initially the staff seemed unsure if the kitchen was still open. We opted for gammon steak, chips and salad which was fresh and hot in the right places. Perhaps less items on the menu would give confidence that more of it was fresh. Not all choices could have been cooked fresh if requested.

Lovely setting; slightly strange mix of traditional (bar, fire) and modern (dining area with very functional chairs, bright, slightly childish looking menus, tables arranged like a school dining room), but really nice food served by friendly staff. Good value also.

Had a couple of evening meals from this quaint oldy worldly pub. All oak beams and polished brass, stone fireplaces. Although dining area not large food can be eaten in both bars. Staff very friendly as is the landlady, landlord and the locals. Not an extensive menu but caters for all tastes. Food is good and served hot all at a very reasonable price. good beers on tap. Well worth a visit.

Amazing place, crammed with friendly locals. Great, clean beer. Some real characters propping up the bar on a regular basis but in no way intimidating. It's exactly how proper village pubs should be- sadly there aren't many like this left.

What can I say. Lovely place, lovely atmosphere, friendly peeps, very glad I stopped here for a drink before getting back on the road. Special thanks to Sally

My wife and I called in at around 1330 - an impromptu visit on our way home - and noticed at once that this truly traditional 'local' had not only been dressed nicely for Christmas but had been quietly spruced up.The dining room furniture is a bit café-like but functionally comfortable and spotlessly clean. New not-too-posh menus also gave a good impression.Highly regarded by its 'regulars', who meet for group meals as well as a good pint, this is Wood Green's "Bull at Ambridge".

Had a meal with the family here and had a lovely evening. The staff were great and very friendly, the food was good, pletiful and served quite promptly and there was a selection of real ales on tap.

Great place to stop off for a plough mans - staff so friendly. Nuts crisps and cheese on the bar. Roxie was given at least 3 dog biscuits and had a great time.Easy to park outside.

'The Three Pigs' as it is locally and affectionately known, never lets you down. Everyone is so friendly, Tribute is a wonderful pint (in a handle of course). The breaded plaice is to die for, and the chips - Ah, the chips: hot, chunky, crisp and dry; just as they should be. And the setting, quintessentially Olde England inside and out; we can't get enough if it!

Weds Night is steak night,I had both the gammon & rump on the same plate absolutely superb,The landlord even got me to change a couple of light bulbs.

A lot of character in this pub and very good value- you good get a hearty well fed two course meal for ten pounds with specials on each day, i.e. pie day, steak day etc.Interior very oldy worldly with a bird in the cage next to the bar!

Extremely good value pub food with excellent service. Highly recommended if you're not looking for fancy food. They do, however, have an indoor caged bird which can make quite scary tweets if you're not aware!

We go here every week - my elderly mother and I. "The Governor" and his staff are helpful and friendly. Easy to park outside by Wood Green. The regulars, including Michael on his usual stool, have a bit of a laugh and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly.All the food arrives on very hot plates - my Mum like that! There is a good sized dining area off the lounge bar. We have never had a dessert (because we are not "dessert people") but they look great. Mains are all good and great value. Wash it down with Stella.

A traditional older worlde pub with customers who are characters who always have a welcome for visitors to the pub. There is a small dining area, its basic in layout but it clean and the food is good with sensible prices.

Last night was Holy Trinity choir's annual dinner at The Three Pigs (affectionate name). We sang carols there, one evening before Christmas, to a very appreciative gathering. But last night ... well my wife and I were welcomed back with open arms and kisses, The 35 or so guests were served a stupendous three course meal (Dishes chosen in advance) Everything was delicious, hot and plentiful. I just don't know how they do it. Thank you all for a great evening!Here is a little ditty dedicated to you."Some pubs welcome one as guest. Some might have a view. If you want Olde England's best, The Three Pig's here for you!"

My sister booked a meal here for some of the family for a special birthday treat, having never been before. We were very glad that she did! We all had really good food, the prices were excellent and the staff were very friendly.We will certainly be back when in the area again.

I first visited this pub with my partner on a Saturday night for a quick drink. I immediately warmed to this old fashioned, friendly locals filled pub. We noted that the food prices looked very low and weren't sure what the quality would be like. We were very surprised that when we decided to try the food on a Wednesday lunch that we could have a 10oz steak dinner for £5.25!!! We both had this and it was delicious! Steaks cooked perfectly, lovely chips, peas and peeper corn sauce to accompany it. I rate this place a 10/10 for value for money and we'll most definitely be back. One small downside is the squawky parrot in the dining room, however due to the rest of the offering I'll definitely overlook and come again!

I don't get many opportunities to have lunch here, but will always come when I can. The reason is that it is one of a dying breed. I first came here over twenty years ago and it has hardly changed.

I couldn't call myself a regular but like to go a couple of times or so a month.The welcome is warm from the Bar staff and regulars. While no claim to fine dining, they serve good pub food at reasonable prices.This always seems to be a happy place.

Booked a table for 7, 4 adults and 3 kids. We were pleased with the straightforward pub grub. Portions could have been a bit bigger, but food came quickly and service was friendly. We thought the meal was cheap. Would recommend.

Nipped in for a cheeky Tuesday Special, I had the Chicken Tikka Massala with Rice Only£5.05 just the job with a cold fosters. Dont be fooled this a pub serving food not the other way around so if your looking for waiting staff buzzing around the place and a click of he finger get you someones attention you could be in for a long wait but if you need refueling with a pint its just the ticket.

Our local is all a local should be; open, warm and friendly, both staff and locals. Well kept real ales, good helpings of home cooked food from a wide choice, catering for snacks, meals and functions. We just keep coming back.

I've been coming here with my family for years. It's great to see a small local pub with heart and soul. Great great food, and all incredibly good value. A gem for Witney, we must protect it!

We eat here regularly. The food is good, wholesome and excellent value. Joy & John are very welcoming and the staff are very friendly. It is also wheelchair friendly. I heartily recommend it.

Well actually it's our local, but Woodgreen is Thrush Green - know what I mean? Google it. John and Joy, our hosts are always welcoming, as indeed are all the regulars too. The entrance is accessible to wheelchairs, the decor is quintessentially Olde English. Real ale, home cooked food - and generous helpings. Sunday roasts are better than you can prepare it at home. The chips are the best in the west! We just keep going back. And talk about value for money, I don't know how they do it. We've been with friends, we've been with the family, including small grandchildren, everyone is welcome. I even had my birthday party there with 40 guests. Beat that!

My father is a resident of Witney, I take him out once a month since my mother sadly passed away. We try not to visit the same place twice, but we will be going back to this establishment for the most obscure of reasons. This is not a gastro pub, or in fact a foodie establishment, what this pub supplies is pure and simple honest grub. How they maintain their prices I have no idea. But, if you want good honest food this is the place to come. Don't expect fine dining, enjoy a good pint of local ale and well prepared simple food at a ridiculously cheap price. But more than this, I left two ten pound notes stuck together in payment, the landlord who had never seen me or met me before came running out to the car trying to explain that I had left too much money as a tip. I wasn't sure so left him by card to phone or e mail me should I owe him the money. I have heard nothing so presumably I made a mistake. For that reason I will re visit this establishment and encourage everyone to visit this honest to goodness pub, with superb ale great simple food, with honest service, and friendly local people.PS the screeching bird, I'm sure, would be great on toast.

Honest village pub.staff were very lovely helpful and friendly. Not designer food or portions but proper food. Thai fish cake was full of flavour crispy outside fluffy middle. Homemade pies and lemon pud was as it said full of lemon flavour. 3 courses each ( was greedy as we were full) and 3 pints Bill was £32. Hope this pub keeps going as I am definitely bringing other family members in July if not before.nice to see them expecting a visiting crib team.ling live the village pub

What a little jewel of a pub. This was a venue for a pre-Christmas family gathering and it was perfect. The welcome was warm. The food was excellent for a pub menu and quite extensive. We were able to have the a la carte menu, which was a bonus as everywhere else the Christmas menu was obligatory!After a delicious meal we were included in the locals enjoyment of the entertainment, a one man show which was just the job, very entertaining!The Three Pidgeons reminded my brother and myself of our parents pub in wildest Gloucestershire a few years back. A lovely atmosphere and will be back again for another gathering in the Spring!Only one slight niggle, can be hard to find a parking spot.

This pub is a surprising find. It is quite clearly a favourite of locals as it was busy thought my meal. The menu is very large for such a small establishment but the food was of a high quality. A very nice experience I will probably revisit in my time

We chose this for an evening meal on our last night in Witney. We nearly changed our mind because of the difficulty of parking nearby. On entering, it seemed like a fairly old fashioned traditional pub with a room to one side used as the dining room. As there was no one in there we checked if food was available, it was. Service was very friendly and we'd certainly recommend the food. My steak was cooked exactly as I'd asked and my husband was happy with his scampi.If there was a downside it's the lack of ambience - it probably looks the same as it did when we lived in the area 30 years ago. But the cost (under £10 for the steak with new potatoes,mushrooms, tomato, peas and onion rings) was good.

Poped in here after being recommended by my fiancé parents. Best roast I have had in Witney today. Great value great amount of food. Will be back

This is by no means a gastro-pub , thank goodness, but the food is plentiful, varied, well-cooked and reasonably priced. A little gem on a town green and equally fine for just a drink - no expectation to eat as in so many today. The hosts are friendly and the locals seem to have caught the habit.

Lunched there last Sunday whilst visiting the area. Good selection of food on the menu. I had the chillies and my wife had a steak. The food was excellent. No gastropub prices here just good food really well cooked and in a friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended.

One of the few 'proper' pubs still alive. Cozy, friendly, bustling with lots of characters and how you want a pub to be. Beams, big inglenook fireplace and smiley bar staff. We visited with friends for a christmas party and the pub was buzzing with locals as well as our party of 20 plus. We sat down for a traditional three course xmas menu at an impossibly reasonable price. The prawn cocktail was outstanding, lovely juicy prawns with a spicy marie rose sauce and my husbands brie wedges with redcurrant sauce was really tasty. The roast was a generous portion and those who wanted an alternative had been well catered for. We finished off the evening with dancing and singling along to a live music duo. Hope the town can hang on to this 'old school' pub as there are sadly so few like it left.

Popped in with my family for Sunday lunch. We hadn't booked and it was very busy but they managed to get us a table. It was fab. Amazing portion size, a good proper Sunday dinner and fantastic value. Such a warm welcome by the regular customers (who were friendly) and the staff. I highly recommend coming here for food if you're looking for something of excellent value and very tasty!

Popped in for dinner in the week and had 2 course. Left a tiny amount of my soup starter and during my main course the old lady (landlord) interrupted me asking me what was wrong with the soup!!!Had a fish main course which was also terrible.Pub is very old fashioned, didn't think places like this still existed. Don't believe the other reviews.

If you're fed up of pretentious, arty places that serve bad food at extortionate prices, this is the place for you. The food is just what I like, traditional favourites with good-sized portions at a reasonable price, there is a good vegetarian selection too. I've been here many times, it is a comfortable pub with friendly staff.

We popped into the Three Pigeons for lunch today after shopping in Witney , and I have to say I'm really glad we did. The menu was really good the "special chicken burger" that I chose was more than I could eat, and delicious. The staff were lovely and very friendly and the prices very reasonable. We will definitely eat here again and will recommend it to our friends.

We booked for a large group for a birthday dinner. The food was excellently priced with many main dishes around the £6 mark. The food was very good, lots of it, all arrived in good time and hot. The dinners look like basic meals with no frills, but we all agreed that it was very good value for money. The lamb shanks and beef casserole were particular favourites. We would have no hesitation in eating here again.

Good menu range and reasonably priced. Pleasantly surprised! Staff friendly & welcoming.Children & veggies catered for. Play park & green to the front of the pub for children :-)

we visited at 1230 on a sunday lunch time and had a great meal with excellent service and decent ales! food was hot and well cooked! excellent menu range! sunday roast for under £5, trout for under £7, kids menu and veggie options! excelllent garden out back and kids area at front!

Tried the Weds night offer - 6oz Rump Steak. Comes with chips and one of following - peas, mushrooms or onion rings. If you want more than 1item then add on 65p per item. We both had mushrooms with ours and 1 extra onion rings(5) to share. Cost £8-75 in total! Huge plate, steak looked much larger than 6 ozs, was probably thinner but really delicious. Pub has really wide choice menu from sandwiches, jacket spuds, usual pub dishes, Sunday roast. Separate eating area in Lounge Bar.Well worth a visit. We will definitely go back next week!
