The Trouble House in Cotswold

What a fabulous place to have a wonderful meal or enjoy a coffee with a fab choice of cake. The menu is varied with always a good choice of specials & vegetarian options. Using fresh produce and locally sourced seasonal food where possible. Do go for the fish & fizz on a Friday evening if you can 😋 Jacqui and the team always give a warm welcome and are very dog friendly 🐶. The garden is a must when the sun shines 😎🌞. Do book ahead to be assured of a table. Enjoy 👍☺️

I love going to Trouble House.You can have a pleasant walk to Trouble House from Tetbury along the railway line. Where you receive a warm welcome. The staff are very helpful. Great food and coffee. Feels like home.

Oh Dear! Big lessons in Customer Service are needed. We sat down for what would have been a lovely sunday roast... we are Tetbury residents but have only been here once before so we were excited to try it again. No sooner was a bottle of wine delivered to our table and passed right over our baby's head by a seemingly very inexperienced young barman, then before our eyes as he attempted to place it down on the table (a tray with a full bottle and 4 wine glasses), right in front of baby's highchair, the bottle of wine tipped completely, hitting our baby in the face, spilling red wine all over her face and into her eyes, stained x3 layers of clothing... she was beside herself, and it left us shaken for lunch. We go up to the bar to pay the bill, the SAME bartender who spilt the wine then asks which table we were from! He then instructs how to add service charge! and low and behold the bottle of wine was not taken off the bill..... wow. Shocking. Should not have even been a question about this. When I politely mentioned to the landlady that it would have been nice if the wine was not charged for, she said "well I did offer to replace the bottle of wine"....You should have a) replaced the bottle of wine without even asking, and b) taken it off the hefty bill. Mistakes happen but there are ways to deal with them and this has left us vowing never to return or recommend.

The Best Sunday roast in Tetbury. Pudding was also lovely and portion sizes spot on

Rustically stylish destination pub. Great landlady and staff and a top drawer chef in the kitchen. Be hungry when you go there!

Excellent communication and customer service from Jacqui and the team with assisting a large group under short notice for a post wedding brunch. Highly recommend and will definitely be visiting in the future!

Great service not the cheapest food ok

Excellent service for our lunch for 9 of us.

Amazing hosts. Superb food. Fabulous accommodation. Can't wait for our next stay.

Lovely food. Friendly staff. Very hospitable. Beautiful setting. Would definitely recommend to give it a try

Fantastic pub with lovely big garden at the back. We had a very warm welcome and great service. We had some lovely cakes and coffee in the garden, it’s a great place to relax. Many thanks!

Some of the best food ever, in a wonderful, cozy pub atmosphere.

Lovely dinner in a super cosy pub. The food was amazing. So tasty. Cannot wait to go back.

We had the most amazing stay here… from the minute we arrived until we left, the staff were so friendly and welcoming. We stayed for one night in the adjoining guest house, and I only wish I could’ve stayed longer. The food was outstanding, I had the beef Bourginon for dinner and the next day we had a cooked breakfast which was delicious.

Food was cold had to reheat twice very poor service would not be coming back again lesson learnt.

We had the most delicious meal on a Saturday evening. The menu had just changed to the Spring/Summer menu and we were spoiled for choice. Absolute winner. Do go.

The loveliest staff and the food is unreal. Well worth a visit

I don't think I've ever had a better meal at a pub! The new landlords have created a menu with so many choices, it was tricky to pick just one from each course. There were four of us dining, and not one of us could fault our meal in any way. Quite superb. A lovely pub, with a good atmosphere, well trained staff and the best food. Top marks.

Greeted with a smile and were made to feel right at home. Super comfy and large bed so me and my husband didn't have to touch (what a dream) and the full english had great local produce, delish! Highly recommend stopping over at Trouble House.. thank you for a great stay ❤️

Welcoming staff. Excellent modern take on classic dishes. Great service. Cosy atmosphere with log burner. Well worth the visit. We will return

OMG - took my wife here for our 25th Wedding Anniversary and the food and service was amazing. If you want to be sure of a great pub lunch or dinner in the Cirencester / Tetbury area, which can be a bit hit and miss these days, then look no further than the Troublehouse, it’s the best I have been to in many years. I had Scallops as a starter and fillet steak as a main, both cooked to perfection. The fact that the pub restaurant was busy on a Tuesday lunch says it all. Thank you Troublehouse for a great Wedding Anniversary lunch and the special treat at the end. David and Raphaelle Watts

Delicious food. Friendly service.

Beautiful set in country side and well presented restaurant with a beautiful garden. Meals are delicious bit pricy but absolutely worth the price as it all comes out served very nicely and taste great.

We stopped in for Sunday Lunch whilst in the area visiting Highgrove Gardens. The best Sunday roast we've had this year! Not wildly expensive but proper good food with a welcoming atmosphere, would 100% go back and recommend

Met the owners and Chef. Lovely people. Chef has such a passion for local seasonal food. So nice they are not a chain and can purchase what's available from local producers to turn out some amazing dishes 🥰 How it should be!

Only had lunch here, which was very good. Scallops to start were great, then calves liver with a very tasty gravy. Partner had potted shrimps and then cheese souffle ( could have done with more cheese) over all it was very good. Only open evenings Friday and Saturday.

Great Sunday lunch, 👍 I had Pork Confit and good value thanks

We had a fantastic Sunday lunch here 30/07/2023. Lamb rump was perfect as was the pink roast beef. Lovely veg and Yorkshires, portions were just right; very attentive friendly staff and a lovely owner too. We'll be back soon

Came in for early sitting Sunday lunch. Staff super friendly, service was quick and food was excellent. What a joy having al dente veg. Good beer too. Thank you😊

Wonderful food, excellent service and a beautiful garden. Highly recommend

Delicious food. No cell phone signal inside the thick walls, and Pixel phones refuse to connect to wifi.

Fantastic!! Stopped for a Sunday lunch while driving. The roasts were amazing and the crispy squid was the best I’ve ever had. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Great atmosphere, great good and a lovely location. Will be coming again if we are in the area.

Meals was good as usual. Just disappointed that the ice cream was not presented properly.

Faultless.... we have just stayed at The Trouble House and it was Faultless... the 'Guest room' was private and immaculate, lovely bathroom and great towels! The greeting and breakfast in the morning was as equally lovely.... Great menu choice, beautifully cooked and nothing was too much trouble. We cannot recommend the Trouble House enough, whether you're local or looking for somewhere to stay while visiting the area.

Had a lovely afternoon tea, after a walk from the Goods Shed. A generous round of sandwiches and cakes, would definitely recommend a trip!

Popped in on a whim without booking. Lovely lunch. Dog friendly.

We stopped for dinner on a Saturday night without a reservation. Although they were fully booked, we were early enough that they seated us. The staff are very friendly and gave us a history of the building. The dining area was small but charming, with a very welcome woodburner. Our meal was excellent but the real star of the show was the homemade blackberry apple crumble. We shared it but should've had two! Lovely place and people, wish we lived close by so we could go more often!

Very welcoming and friendly staff.

Great little country pub/restaurant. Real fires, friendly staff, dog friendly. A great place for lunch, dinner or a drink. Highly recommend.

Great pub (dog friendly) at the end of the Tetbury railway trail (flat track through woods and alongside source of Avon water meadows) care needed when crossing main road at end of trail.

Most of our 4 meals were great but unfortunately the lamb shank wasn't up to scratch. The staff were great and replaced it without any fuss but this one wasn't great either. In fairness they were very apologetic and took this dish off the bill which seemed very fair. Everything else was great so I would suggest that this was the exception. Overall we felt that it was good value and we would be happy to return soon if we are looking for a venue in that area.

I’m so impressed with Trouble House! Came to visit for Sunday lunch last week and the service was quick, food arrived hot, great portion size, and was absolutely delicious! I ordered a nut roast Sunday dinner and I have to say it was the best I’ve ever had. The Yorkshire’s were large, we had plenty of roast potatoes and a variety of veg, all cooked well, not over done or soggy. Our Mum had the pork belly and again that was a large portion of meat and came with crackling. We came away so happy and would not hesitate to visit again!

Excellent in all ways, will definitely visit again. Lovely food served by happy, smiley people.

We went there for our Xmas do. We loved it. The food was delicious, the surroundings are lovely and the service is excellent and the welcome very warm indeed. Ideal!

Nice relaxing atmosphere and food looks good

We had a gorgeous Sunday late lunch (2pm) exceptional in fact! Attentive staff, fantastic owner, accommodating when we wanted a further drink . Thank you for a lovely lunch and well done to your young staff

The owner and serving team are extremely welcoming. The food is very tasty and the cakes are a highlight. Highly recommended

Staff were very welcoming and friendly. Busy restaurant but we hardly waited at all for anything despite only two people serving. Food was delicious. Highly recommended and will go again.

Great food ,awesome staff !! never to much Trouble at the Trouble Thanks

Excellent food and friendly service at fair prices. Do visit!

Great lunch offering, fantastic service and super dog friendly. The club sandwich was unreal, fresh ingredients and locally sourced. Highly recommend

Had the pleasure of eating and staying over at The Trouble House. The fish Friday food was simply delicious and the accommodation stunning and comfortable. The host and hostess were very friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend, thanks for making our stay so memorable for all the right reasons!

Can't rate this place highly enough, engaging friendly staff, wonderful food and a relaxing atmosphere :-) thanks guys

Went for birthday celebration tea with bubbly, sandwiches, cream tea, cakes in garden. Really lovely afternoon including food, staff, atmosphere. Can walk there along Tetbury Trail from Tetbury. Perfect afternoon. Great place for a party.

A fantastic afternoon tea. The ladies who run are helpful and friendly. We will be returning soon.

Absolutely lovely place with lovely welcoming staff to us bikers (Toff and Totties) lovely Flapjacks-Homemade 😋 had a total surprise with Diana Ross turning up for a lil visit 😉 Hopefully will be back 😀 😊

Visited for a quick lunch and service was very speedy, was nice being able to sit out in the sun. Food was exceptional and a decent portion. Only downside is very limited parking.

Family run, family friendly. We had a great evening at this lovely village pub albeit on the Tetbury to Cirencester road. A perfect meeting up pub with light & charming interior, fresh & delicious food. Dog friendly. Evening sun garden - perfect! We will definitely be back.

Not very good at all. Booked in for lunch on Fathers day and chose the Trouble House as we expected something a bit special given the prices (which turned out to be more on the day than advertised on their website). How wrong we were, it's just a glorified pub serving at best mediocre food at restaurant prices. £18.50 for roast beef dinner which consisted of an overly large yorkshire pudding which took up most of the plate, a few little carrots, 2 small roast potatoes, a small amount of red cabbage, 2 small florets of broccoli (which were near to raw) and one single slice of beef! We had to order extra veg and potatoes which cost an extra £6, this gave us 5 small florets of broccoli and some red cabbage, and 6 potatoes. Absolute disgrace to be honest. In addition to that, we didn't get the honey roast parsnips as advertised so had to ask for them, we got given the wrong meals, 3 of us had been given our meals but my mum had to wait a while after for hers, and the staff although trying their very best were completely disorganised. I really can't understand all the good reviews on here, they must have been eating somewhere else, or just have very low expectations and big pockets. 4 roast dinners and a drink each, with no starter or desert cost us £100! I certainly won't be eating here again.

We had an excellent lunch at The Troublehouse yesterday. Delicious food, good value and charming service. Really looking forward to another visit.

We visited yesterday on the off chance. We had really excellent sandwiches so decided to return today for lunch. Three courses, each one as good as we've had anywhere. The beef bourguignon was amazing and the sticky toffee pudding divine. Its well worth a visit. Big shout out to the chef, Rory and the cheerful and friendly staff.

Fab place. Very accommodating host - we got a breakfast late in the morning though it had technically finished. Great coffee (& cake!). Lovely spot to break up a walk.

Absolutely loved this pub and everything about it ... the food, the ambience, the decor, the friendliness and most of all the service. Highly recommended.

One of the best lunches I've had in a long time. Wonderful food, great staff, excellent interior.

The new owners have done a cracking job. The place looks great. They are coping with c-19 admirably. The food was lovely and reasonably priced.

The food as really good and the staff just as good

Lovely small restaurant just outside Tetbury serving good quality food. Booking recommended as the venue is not very large. It is good that the tables are not squeezed in together, with adequate space between tables. Food is of good quality, well plated up and served by very friendly staff. Afternoon tea, with cakes to die for is also available!

Friendly, lovely food. Toilets clean

Excellent host, great service and all very friendly. Food is amazing!

Excellent food and drink in a historic pub. The pork belly from the specials menu just fell apart. Everything was perfectly seasoned and full of flavour.

The Troblue House is a lovely place with a fascinating history. The crew is lovely and friendly, make you feel relaxed and welcome. The food is lovely and ni Ely presented. The house burger is awesome, portion are generous. Kids loved the fish and chips as well as the chicken nuggets. The Panettone bread pudding is really nice and the Stick toffee pudding is delicious. Highly recommended, I know we will be coming there often.

Great food and friendly staff, lovely atmosphere!

Really impressed with the pub This was our first visit and had Sunday lunch with friends. The food was excellent as was the atmosphere in the pub and the staff and landlady were attentive, efficient and made the lunch thoroughly enjoyable, If you are thinking of going to the pub for a drink etc or food you really can’t go much wrong with The Trouble House

Very tasty lunch off the specials board and they amended the menu to cover a dairy free request

Exceptional burger. Great service. Thanks.

We first went to The Trouble House during lockdown to help local pubs. And we found the service and food to be amazing! Sad that we didn’t find this gem earlier. And since then we’ve been coming there ever since . Today we had the pork roast belly in which I can only describe as one or the best roast I’ve ever had. The staff is always helpful, the place is clean and nice, and the food is always consistently great. Love you guys!

Absolutely excellent little pub, great host and looking forward to going back in a few weeks for Hubby's birthday with a sleepover

Delicious nut roast, friendly service

Amazing place!! Such lovely people, great service and the food was the best I've had in a long time. Even the dog got a biscuit to make him feel welcome. The venue is beautiful and the history behind the place is really interesting. Will be visiting again!

Brilliant Sunday lunch. Staff very good and food excellent. Four generations out for a birthday and everyone enjoyed the experience. Will go back.

Stopped for coffee and cake having walked there on the Tetbury Way. Delicious cake and very friendly staff. Will be going back soon for lunch

A lovely place for a visit good food excellent coffee and fresh home baked cakes lovely gardens ...soon to have shepherds cabins for a holiday/break very friendly service... b&b and the whole place has a lovely ambience about it Definitely a place to visit.

Amazing food lovely atmosphere fantastic staff

Great staff, lovely tea and the scones and cake were excellent! Look forward to visiting again.

Delicious food, fantastic service and a hidden gem just on the outside of Tetbury. Me and my partner were very impressed with the quality of the food at the trouble house. My partner had the burger which was cooked to perfection and it was huge! Perfect portion for meat lovers. Sadly, I suffer with IBS so I stuck with the chicken dish with the mustard sauce on the side. But I was not disappointed as the chicken was very moist and tasty. After dinner, my partner had the crumble and in his words ‘this is the best crumble I’ve ever had. You could taste all the different fruits and the crumble was crunchy’. Can’t recommend this place enough. Compliments to the chef - we can’t wait to visit again in the future.

Expensive. Waitress was rude; half our drinks “might” be out later. Wouldn’t recommend.

Delicious lunch from start to finish , entire menu is amazing. Whole seabass was my favourite with harissa cauliflower and peanut butter cheesecake. The new chef is brilliant very talented ..Jackie is so friendly and has created a beautiful setting inside and out. We can't wait to return.

Lovely friendly people and great atmosphere. Will return

Devilled kidneys were great. Nice staff.

Very good, friendly service good ale and excellent burger, though the chips had been annointed with truffle oil. Great in savoury soups esp mushroom, parsnip etc but overwhelming on the humble chip and not to many people's taste. Better as an option.

We turned up on the off chance on a bike ride and the owner served us despite being in the middle of cleaning after service. Excellent customer service.

Lovely venue, with friendly and attentive staff. A few more options on the menu would be good.

Delicious lunch. Every bit of my burger and trimmings and the date and rum pudding was very tasty and it was all pleasantly served. Short menu, but all nice. Two of our party very much enjoyed somewhat expensive steaks. A bit more attention to the Uley bitter would help - first of the day needs some running off before serving.

Lovely venue, really nicely decorated inside and outdoors has an amazing garden too. Staff were attentive, food was great...would highly recommend!

Excellent, roast chicken or beef lovely and tasty, we will be back!.

Great friendly service but I only asked for plain chips & got chips covered in gratted parmesan, not a fan & didn't ask, asked for a 2nd pint & didn't receive asked again & finally received, when paying the bill they tried to charge me for 3 pints not 2, I complained & only paid for 2 pints & the wrong chips which came to £14.19 for 2 pints and a very small portion of chips covered in Parmesan which I didn't ask for! If you wish to use this place then make it VERY CLEAN on what you would like.

Wonderful meal. Staff were very kind and chatty. My mum loved Max x

Welcome stopping point for walk from Tetbury. Service VG - coffee and cake great.

Best Sunday roast I ever had in my life. It was well worth the long wait

Lovely food, friendly staff, covered area to eat under or out in the open. Had a great evening.
