The Wheatsheaf at Oaksey in Wiltshire

Good to see the place open again. Just starting up so needs to be supported.

Had a Sunday roast here after a walk, staff were so lovely and welcoming and the food was great and such good value for money!

I ate there tonight I thought all the food was good, my friends all agreed. Ignore the review from the person who would rather eat at Iceland it almost put us off, but we're glad we decided to try for ourselves. Also very dog friendly.

It’s re-opened under new management and it’s been worth the wait! The food is great - everything from a cheeky bowl of chips to a Sunday lunch or fine steak is available. Fantastic vegetarian food and they are very accommodating on allergies and preferences. Thursday is steak night and there’s a quiz and bingo on a Sunday evening. A great vibe, warm welcome, and a proper village pub again. Hurrah!

Went for a meal with friends, their pie was cold, the fish cakes inedible, to the point where my friend couldn’t even finish her meal. I had the salmon with mash potato for £18.95 and what I received was the tiniest bit of tail end fish, I mean it was smaller than the palm of my hand, and my mash potato was non exist as they bought out sautéed potatoes which were greasy and quite frankly gross. The food was warm-ish. No one even came over to check if we were happy with it, so couldn’t even query it with staff and they aren’t even busy. Not happy - over priced, underfed and completely dissatisfied - DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I could have bought my entire meal from Iceland for half the bloody price. What a bloody joke. If I could give 0 stars I would.

The Wheatsheaf at Oaksey opened again on Thursday under new management. Went round for Sunday lunch, choice of lamb, beef, pork or chicken. We went for the lamb….very good sized portions! Followed up by homemade apple crumble and custard (delicious) and a chocolate brownie. Recommended for food and friendly attentive service!

I love this restaurant, I wish I lived closer! The staff are charming and the Sunday roast is honestly, one of the best I have tasted. The portions sizes are very generous, the belly of pork was cooked to perfection and the roast potatoes were as good as my Mother used to cook and that, is a big compliment! Thank you for a lovely meal in excellent surroundings. Oh and, they are dog friendly which is always as bonus! Ps I love the artwork!

I’ve eaten at most of the pubs in the area and this Sunday Roast is the best I’ve eaten! The beef is cooked to perfection. (If you’re vegan or vegetarian, they do have some cracking alternatives too!)

Very friendly staff exalent meal

We were a group of friends staying at Lower Mill Estate and wanted a walk to a local pub instead of using onsite restaurant. We had been advised, on phone , twice , that it was walkable. We were all fit and healthy, so gave a it a go. We ended up walking for an hour , on dark country roads with no footpath and felt in danger of our lives. We arrived at pub ready for a warm meal and had pre ordered food from a menu we were sent which in no way reflects one on website. I had garlic mushrooms, four fried mushrooms,mayo and shredded iceberg covered in some kind of dressing. Others had bread an olives, white pitta bread and tinned olives. The chicken burger was like something served in school canteen with frozen chips and purple coleslaw. Looking at menu on website I can only think the chef had a night off , but still charging top prices. Unbelievable BUT service was good and friendly and taxis were found to get us home.

We had dinner tonight here, we are based not too far away and so glad it’s reopened. The new owners have made it feel like a really friendly local pub! It’s great to also have a menu with more than just the traditional Cotswolds offering. We had the jerk pork and brown stew chicken both were really really delicious. Being Londers getting Caribbean food in the countryside is an absolute winner. Can’t wait to go back! Great service, brilliant quality produce and a lovely atmosphere.

Just called into the newly re-opened Wheatsheaf in Oaksey! Had a few drinks and a meal - some of the Caribbean fare - lush. So much better than before. Thank you - will definitely be back soon

The Caribbean takeaway food was absolutely amazing and the owners are great people!

Great selection of beer and food good

Best b and best ever stopped in everything has a special touch to it would highly recommend

Incredible service, Sunday roast was the best I've ever had from a restaurant/pub and the staff were very friendly.

Highly recommended. Best roast dinners we have ever had! Try the Beef! Atmosphere lovely and calm, service was spot on!

La casa esta fenomenal. Muy bien reformada y decorada pese a su antigüedad. Todo fue perfecto y un par de pequeños problemillas que tuvimos los solucionaron rápidamente. El pub solo abrió un día, por lo que no llegamos a entrar.

Food excellent,good choice and reasonably priced.

Great Sunday roast the new owners are doing a great job with this place. Nice vibe and great food.

Had a lovely catch up with an old friend at this fabulous country pub. Really friendly staff , great food and well priced throughout. The Tim Taylor is as good as you’ll find anywhere. Great to find a locals pub which is as inviting to visitors as their usual guests. Will be back.

Really friendly welcome when we arrived. Great atmosphere and the food was exceptional. Nice selection of starters and puddings. We all opted for Sunday Dinner, two had beef and two turkey. Good selection of vegetables and plenty of meat. Meals were really hot and very enjoyable. Would certainly visit again.

A great dining experience. Well mannered staff. Very efficient.

I spent a lovely month living in Oaksey. I found the Wheatsheaf on day one and visited once or twice a week for the duration of my stay. By the second visit, at which I enjoyed my first meal, my dogs and I were made to feel like locals. Carol, Ian and their team are so warm and friendly. My visit on 20th October was to meet friends for dinner. I was a little late and by the time I'd got there, my friends were deep in conversation with Carol. I walked in and was welcomed by an old friend, which was wonderful. I didn't get the young woman's name, but she remembered some of the stuff I'd wittered on about in my previous visit and asked me how things had gone. I spent a lot of time on my own in Oaksey, working, but moments like this made me feel "recognised". And it felt authentic; these guys genuinely like people! The food here is delicious, with a good range of options to choose from. One of my "20th October" friends is a pretty severe coeliac and she was able to enjoy a dish that met her dietary needs. Some key indicators for me of good cooking were in evidence here: pasta is al dente, vegetables (notably broccoli) has a crunch and isn't soggy. The meals themselves take a little while to come, which is suggestive of things being cooked fresh rather than being re-generated. I'd add that they seem to keep the beer well here. I like a pint of cask ale if I can get it and I had nothing but joyful flavours from all the pints I enjoyed. It's worth making a trip here if you're in the area and looking for an intimate, friendly pub-based meal.

So my friends and I have just visited The Wheatsheaf and had such a fabulous meal , Ian and his colleague (sorry forgotten already !) made us so welcome , Ian greeted us as we walked in and was super friendly and such a happy person which immediately put us at ease and made us really comfortable. The food was gorgeous I had fish and chips which was super tasty finished off with sticky toffee pudding which was absolutely scrumptious . The decor is really gorgeous and the pictures on the wall are so fab ! We are here on holiday however when we are in the area again we will definitely pop in as we enjoyed it so much ! Thank you for your hospitality! 😄

Great Sunday roast and very friendly staff... definitely try the cheesecake

Wonderful pub, stayed in the apartment above and the staff of the pub are so lovely, really welcoming. had the roast on Sunday and it was beautiful - good vegan options too.

Incredibly good food and excellent service.

Carol, Piers and Ian made sure that our visit tonight was perfect. Excellent customer service, superb food and a beautiful environment. We were visiting for a family break away and honestly couldn’t fault our evening. Ian’s dog made my youngest daughter’s evening too! 🐾 💙 We left a handwritten thank you in the guest book written by our 10 year old. ✍️ 📄

Friendly staff, great Sunday roast.

Stayed in the Airbnb upstairs, fantastic flat!

Amazing place, great food, love it

A lovely evening out in a beautiful Cotswold pub last night. The food was very good and the décor really impressive. The staff were welcoming and friendly especially Carol and the owner whose name we unfortunately didn't get, also we chatted to the friendly chef at the end of the evening.

Beautiful fish platter (for 2) to start, a lovely creamy risotto and superb pork belly for mains. Generous portions and really helpful and engaging staff.

Too loud, horrible music - would not go again.

Oh thank you for good ol' fashioned English pubs. This one is delightful and a refreshing change to my Scottish Highlands local, boasting real ales 🍺🍻🍺

Was slightly disappointed in the quality of the food i had a burger which says homemade... it was dry and no flavour to it at all, really over priced .. i use to eat in this pub all the time before it changed hands sad to say i won't be going back any time soon. Lovely staff and really assertive to all your needs can't fault the staff 1 bit just the price and food unfortunately

From the tables to the lights. What a beautiful pub. The staff are outstanding, the chef is ridiculously talented. The jammy dodger parfait is an ingenious invention. We can not keep away. Would recommend to anyone. Thanks for the great service and the great food. See you soon

We stumbled on this lovely pub by lucky accident. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the food delicious and beautifully presented.

Quiet pub tucked away in the heart of the village. Good beers, good snacks, superb friendly service and dog friendly (with treats!) Will go back to try the food.

Excellent meal while staying in Oaksey for a wedding party

We was visiting the village for a long weekend, we was recommended here by the host where we was staying. We arrived and the staff was friendly, who helped with drink and food choices. A friendly pub and we chatted to other guests seated near...

A really nice lunch, and the best place around. Very good beer, friendly service, we will be back for an evening meal

Amazing birthday meal tonight and excellent hospitality, made our night a very special one. Would highly recommend this place and the staff are amazing and the food was divine.

Very slow service for a Wednesday night, wait 1hr 15 mins for 6 mains course. Burgers and bun's were dry and over cooked, steak was tuff, fish and chips and pork belly was best. Over priced for the quality of the food and service.

Amazing roast lunch we had the roast belly pork and it was the best Sunday lunch we have ever had. Every bit was fantastic the vegetables the meat highly recommend. The service was also fantastic and dog friendly.

We hadn't exactly booked a table here as our the other pub we had intended to visit had unexpectedly closed! The manager was very accommodating despite our late arrival and also being short staffed, we managed to get a table for two as a walk...

Staff very helpful. They know their menu were able to give advice. Food was beautifully cooked and presented. Will be returning.

The best roast dinner I can remember having in a long time. Great service, they were happy to hold our table even though we were late. To top it off the pint of Timothy Taylor's Landlord was a worthy accompaniment to the meal. We'll definitely will be back.

Steak Wednesday worth it! Courgette risotto lacked flavour.

Yes! Loved the place. Everything works. Happy children, happy wife, job done. This place hasn't been open under new management for long (speaking to the friendly manager) and they're doing a good job. We'll be back later in the week by approval of the boss.

This was our first visit the The Wheatsheaf, we both had a really wonderful meal, I had belly pork which was so tender and full of flavour. My husband had the plaice which was very tasty. The staff were all lovely and attentive we will definitely be making this our local.

Excellent lunch and a friendly welcome after flying into the nearby airfield - highly recommended

Excellent food. Outstanding service. Very very busy. Probably the best idea to book in advance, especially weekends.

Had sunday lunch some of the best food I have ever tasted. Great pub 5 stars and a big thumbs-up . The beer was fantastic to.

First night open with new owners, the pub looks fantastic and has a lovely country feel. The staff are welcoming, the food was delicious and well presented. Will be going back very soon to try more!

Beautiful pub in a stunning location. Beer was well kept and a fantastic wine list at sensible price with good choice. Menu was varied to suit everyone Food was well prepared and beautifully presented Highly recommended

Just had a staycation in a fab air bnb. What was even better was that we had a gate from our residence that took us straight to the pub car park. Less than 2 minute walk. It was very covid friendly. We had booked in...

Yummy Scotch Eggs and cute pub dog!

Great service and superb food. Highly recommend.

Great atmosphere, cosy log fire, very nice little pub to stumble across!

We visited for dinner last week whilst staying in a neighbouring village. The pub is set in a quaint little location and was fairly quiet when we visited. The food was very good and we opted for a meat platter for starters and a Vegan...

The meal was the best we've had in a long time - my partners steak was absolutely delicious and properly cooked - superb

A great pub with really good food.

Great food and exceptional service. Easy to find with ample parking. Thursday night steak deal is an absolute bargain.

Lovely food at the wheatsheaf, in a nice atmosphere. The tostada was particularly nice and a bit different for a village pub. They also did a beef chili and vegetarian tostadas.

Excellent pub. Great food, choices for all eating requirements. Cask condition ales. Dogs welcome. 🐕👍🏼

Top quality and very tasty food. Tastiest steak I’ve had in ages and perfectly cooked. Chips light and fluffy on the inside, and crunchy on the outside. Very reasonably priced (especially on steak night, Friday). Great customer service too. It’s absolutely worth making a detour...

Good food and Camden Town lager

One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time, both myself and two hungry teenagers were really pleased with our choices. Staff were great, dog friendly pub - highly recommended

Nice friendly staff and good food. Jess the dog is sweet too

Called in for an evening meal and were delighted with what we found. Warm welcome, good safety measure put in place, attentive and pleasant service and quality food. What is there not to like here. The starter was a shared baked cheese with homey and...

We have had food from The Wheatsheaf a number of times during lockdown. The food is as good as when we ate there, and the service has been fantastic. I cannot wait to go back when we can all visit pubs again, as I miss...

These guys are great. I always go over on a Wednesday for Burger night. Mike makes his burgers himself and they are the next burgers over ever had. They are a lovely couple of make really hard on their business. Wholeheartedly recommended!

My colleagues and I visit quite often to have a meal and play board games after work, they are very accommodating, come up to us with menus once the kitchen opens and the food is always good. It's dog friendly so there's always dogs to pet and it's overall a really good atmosphere in there.

We celebrated my Dads 80th borthday yesterday, we were a party of 17 and the team were so accomadating in the lead up to the meal, returning emails and sharing the menu whicch accomadated Vegan, vegitarian, Gluten free and with no nuts present at all...

We regularly come to the Wheatsheaf for an after work boardgames night. The food is always delicous, and the staff very accomadating to food intolarances. I couldn't recommend it enough.

My family of 8 went to the Wheatsheaf Oakley on Christmas Day 2019 and I cannot say just how wonderful and special they made the occasion feel! We had the private dining room and it was decorated beautifully and the food was plentiful and delicious. In addition, we had some fussy eaters in our group and Michaela worked so hard to accommodate our requests and make everyone happy on the day!All round it was a delightul experience and definitely recommended to anyone who doesn't feel like cooking for Christmas- thanks so much again :)

We visited here as a group of 8 a couple of weeks ago whilst on holiday.Sunday lunch (particularly the lamb) was out of this world. Puddings were great too, and our waitress couldn’t do enough for us, including bringing games out for the kids to play whilst we finished our drinks. Fabulous little pub and I only wish we lived closer.

This little pub has a fantastic atmosphere and amazing food! As a coeliac dog owner on holiday... funding suitable restaurants is not easy, but this pub ticked every box. I had the wonderful fish dish of the day which was full of flavour and didn’t feel like it was missing anything, which so many gluten free foods often do! Our puppy was made to feel so welcome and there were lots of other dogs for her to play with! all in all a brilliant experience, I only wish we were local so we could come back regularly!

Open at strange times, and often closes early. Mostly too cheap to have a fire lit in winter. It overcharges for its small selection of bad beer. Average, overpriced food. Bad atmosphere. Rude and irritating staff. Far better local pubs, go elsewhere.

Went to the Wheatsheaf in Oaksey tonight for their ‘steak night’. We all ate the most perfectly cooked locally sourced meals... I could not recommend this pub more highly. Fantastic value at £28.00 per couple with a bottle of crisp house wine.If you have not been.... go!

Absolutely lovely little pub, dog friendly, amazing staff and food. Our first time in this part of the UK and we received such a warm welcome from everybody here.

We had been recommended this pub by a friend so were excited to try it out. On arrival we where told where are table was, so we got our drinks and sat down. It was cold so I kept my poncho on the whole time I was there. My husband was also cold and considered asking to be moved. My husband had the fish & chips, the mushy peas were dry and the fish small served with frozen chips.I had the smoked salmon Scotch egg which was nice but I found two bones in it. I then had the scallops, the first bite there was a loud crunch so much so my husband who was sat opposite heard it. Grit I think and then the onion purée was just awful, my husband asked to try it and he had grit as well & described a chemical taste. Needless to say I did not eat the last of the three scallops!!Drinks were expensive at £5 for a pint of Camden Hells & £8 for a large rose.Despite informing the waitress of my disappointment with the scallops no reduction of the bill was offered. We paid & left without leaving a tip.I would also recommend you change your play list, Kung foo fighting is probably not the best thing for back ground music.

Great food in a gorgeous setting.

Great community pub. Dog friendly;if you don't have one, the resident dog Jess will oblige. Landlord beer very good. Always a welcome.

Amazing hidden gem of a pub! Food was amazing.

Lovely old village pub, after driving up from Portsmouth to take my Auntie out, with daughter in law and my wife, had already booked, we were met with a warm welcome, before our meal. Our Christmas meal was excellent 3 courses of lovely food, and plenty of it, we were all very pleased with our meal.

Perfect pub with amazing food at a great price! The service is always excellent with guest beers and usually a roaring fire in the bar. Dog friendly to! A tucked away classic Cotswold pub.

Excellent Small village pub. Lovely atmosphere with friendly helpful staff and more importantly great food. Small car park at back of pub. £-££s depending what you choose from the menu.

We had our works Christmas Meal there last night. It was amazing. Lovely pub, warm welcoming staff and of course Jess the dog. We had a 3 course meal which was amazing from start to finish. I had Ham Hock Tarrine to start, Steak for main, and the dessert was a Chocolate Tart with Orange cream which was to die for. Would definitely be going back again as it was all amazing. Thank you to all the staff for a great evening.

We all had an excellent meal at the Wheatsheaf last night and were happily surprised with the portion sizes (considering the set Christmas meal is v good price ). The staff were friendly, lovely atmosphere and super food. Parking is a bit of a pain however that is a very minor flaw. Dog-friendly and step free access.

You get a lot for your money! Splendid 3 course Christmas meal in a very cosy, clean and contemporary local. Heated skittle alley too.

Booked our work team Christmas meal here for 16 people. They offered a good range of options on the 3 course Christmas party menu at a very reasonably price - all of it looked great and was clearly freshly hand made with care and finesse, everyone in our group really enjoy it.

Lovely top quality Christmas dinner, would highly recommend

We were staying locally and were recommended this pub for lunch. We both ordered the beef and Guinness pie of the day which was excellent. Unfortunately they had run out of mash but the chips were fine instead. Would recommend if staying locally although it was a little bit cold and lacked a little atmosphere.

We had a family birthday celebration here with eight of us present. We were at a table in the back of the pub, which lacked atmosphere and seemed to be on a traffic route to and from the loos and the kitchens. Service was a bit tardy but the food itself was truly excellent. Several of us had the guinea fowl from the specials board and it was memorable - for all the right reasons. The wine list was very fairly priced and the wines we chose were good.

Great Sunday roast. Excellent service. Competitive prices.

Eight of us met here for dinner. We’ve been coming here for over 25 years and since moving away from Oaksey we now drop by occasionally. It’s a lovely pub, spoilt only by the gigantic Telly in the bar area !! It’s constantly on, why ? People go to a pub to chat and socialise, not to be distracted by the gigantic TV which is always on !!
