The Wheatsheaf Inn in Wiltshire

Really great food, interesting menu but not overwhelming and a good mix of classics and new, as well as some pretty unique dishes. Atmosphere on a Friday night was lovely, and what I really liked is that although the food was top drawer this is still a proper pub and manages to retain that ambience. Friendly and efficient staff, a good wine list and nice to be somewhere busy and thriving.

We're what you'd call keen foodies. We enjoy travelling and finding new pubs/restaurants. Will travel within about a 30 mile radius, and return if we have a good experience. I had found the Wheatsheaf online and noted some excellent reviews so we thought we'd give it a try. We visited a week before to make the booking. We chose the table we liked, booked it and that table was reserved in writing. The first thing we saw when we arrived was that the table was in use by another couple.. when we reserved it?.. how annoying is that! - Staff member confirmed we had reserved it and apologised for the 'mix-up' - they found us another table and gave us a free drink, but not what you'd call a good start. The pub was very busy. We were asked to wait 10 minutes before ordering so as to allow other orders to go through. I ordered the sirloin, my wife ordered the brill. The food came through in reasonable time. My sirloin (with fries) was adequate. My wife enjoyed the brill, but found the sauce was very strong and rather overpowered the flavour of the fish. Service was good - ambience in the pub was noisy (but then it's a pub).. that's not a deal breaker. I've seen other reviews which say it's lost it's 'specialness' - I'd agree with that. Maybe it would grow on us with subsequent visits but overall the impression was good, but not memorable. The price at £104.00 was memorable - I didn't feel I wanted to leave a tip - whoever gave our table away even though it was reserved let the whole team down and didn't merit one. I'm sure the Wheatsheaf will do just fine without us.

2 for 1 cocktails on a Sunday eve before a bank holiday is a must at this friendly pub. Fabulous Pizzas as well. Support your local pub...I do !!

We stopped by on a whim after our dog walk and had an unbelievable Sunday lunch. This pub has retained its friendly, community feel whilst elevating the food to an exceptional standard. Really can’t fault either the food or service.

The Wheatsheaf is a real gem & so close to London , 50 mins direct train from Paddington and 5min taxi or 10min cycle from Hungerford station We sat outside in the newly refurbed garden and had an amazing lunch with great & friendly service. Pretty much tried all starters and they were excellent. The cote du boeuf to share for main along with the halibut were top class. The food is as good any gastro pub food I've had from a creativity and quality point of view - on par with Wild Rabbit and the Plough in Kingham. Highly recommend for a quick day or overnight trip to the country a world away from London. (Great drives and or cycles around the local AONB can be done pre lunch!)

Brilliant meal, and excellent pub environment. The starters were unusual and excellent, the mains just as good including the lobster, steak frites and chicken Caesar. This place is a wonderful village pub and boozer with top class food

It was fantastic from by start to finish. Every member of staff went the extra mile to make sure we were looked after and totally taken care of. What a wonderful experience again! Thank you everyone at the Wheatsheaf I will be coming back again soon.

Wonderful meal coupled with extremely friendly and efficient service. They even ran after me to give me the leftovers I had asked to be boxed.

The place has a really nice atmosphere and the food was good. There was a big problem, we asked for the côte de boeuf and the piece that was served was definitely not that. We absolutely know about meat. We called the waitress, said that the dish was delicious but it was most likely a sirloin or rump, not côte de boeuf. The fibers, the way the fat is, the taste, it is not the same meat. She went to the kitchen, came back saying that the cook said that the côte de boeuf is a part of the sirloin… we simply paid the bill, including the £70 “côte de boeuf” and left, not to come back unfortunatelt.

Sunday lunch. Starters: Interesting choice. Between us, we had 5 different items and they were all extremely good. Mains: Beef was very tough - were it an adult eating it rather than a young teenager, it would have been sent back (he didn't complain until too late!). Lamb rump was overcooked (pre-cooked?) Roasties and Yorkshire puds were good as was the gravy Have had much better cauliflower cheese but it was OK. Puds: Good choices albeit most of us were too full to have one!

It’s rare that a pub gets it so right. The Wheatsheaf does exactly that. The food was delicious; great ingredients, beautifully presented. The service was light-hearted and charming, well timed and friendly. Highly recommended.

Picked off the map as a halfway meeting point. Really good food and a very friendly welcome, tiger bead and marmite butter was a cheeky treat before the main event. Gents toilets are now gleaming modern! Shout out for the background music too, not intrusive but some good tracks enhanced the ambience.

We had a great evening here. We were here with friends many years ago, but now there is a new owner. The bathrooms are new and clean; the food is very tasty, fresh and nicely presented; staff very nice. I am happy to recommend this pub!!!

When a chef leaves you are always a little concerned whether this village pub will survive. What it does have is excellent staff managed by the ever smiling Alex. I had the Sunday lunch and it was very good.....relief as this is my local!! What I would like to see is a more varied menu included the long lost Pizzas returning, and more chose for Vegetarians as currently poor or no choice.

Have been wanting to visit for some time as I enjoyed watching Thomas Frake on Masterchef and loved his cooking style. I am afraid we were slightly disappointed with the food. Mains and starters were average and my husband’s dessert was meant to be a chocolate fondant it was very dry no runny chocolate in the middle. The staff were excellent very attentive.

We had a large family gathering (18 of us) and the staff and food were superb. I heard, "the best beef that I have ever had" more than once during lunch. All of the food was exceptional, beautifully served and we felt very grateful to all of the staff who made our visit memorable. We will now make this an annual event.

Sunday lunch at the end of November, the Wheatsheaf ticked all the boxes and I just don't know why we haven't visited before. Excellent food, excellent service, dog friendly, we will be back soon.

We were staying at Warners Littlevote House Hotel and went on one of their recommended walks which passed through Chilton Foliat. We saw the Wheatcheaf pub and decided to pop in for a drink. It is a lovely traditional building with friendly service and was a prime example of a old fashioned country pub. They did serve food but we did not eat here.

Saturday night outing for the 2 of us and the Wheatsheaf seemed appropriate as under new ownership with a decent chef on board. Obviously things are planned to improve the building and interior, still a good cosy traditional feel with a sense of local tavern to it. Great staff very welcoming and unobtrusive. The food we had was faultlessly cooked, my wife had the burger - epic was the description from her. I had the baked Hake - really delicious. Our view would be to just add a bit more to the plate as it’s higher end prices, so just add some more veg to the Hake or some slaw with the burger and job done. The wine was excellent value for the Rioja, overall a lovely experience.

My meal was very good, not super memorable, just well cooked lamb. What I do remember is being charged extra for the boiled potatoes that I had with my lamb - one of my pet hates - potatoes for goodness sake! One of the party had a pizza which was good though the side salad (a separate order) appeared no different to one from a supermarket bag. All the serving staff were very friendly. There seems to be some sort of branding issue going on. Is this meant to be an upmarket lunch venue or is it a 'pub pizza'? The eating area is by the bar and not special while the menu and prices seem to be aspiring to something different.

First I must say I couldn't fault the service. Being a hot day it was busier outside than in, but we chose the latter. We were shown to our table, orders taken and food and drink served quickly and efficiently. The menu is rather bizarre (and incidentally is out of date on the website). It ranges from what I would call fine dining nibbles and starters, some quite imaginative, with generous portions. The mains, however, are all over the place, with quite pricey fish and poultry options or a range of pizzas, Some of our party had two starters instead. I shared a pizza with a friend, but it was thin with little topping and although it had a nice crispy edge the base was soggy and not cut through properly. We ended up eating it with our fingers. On the other hand the fennel slaw that we ordered as a side was very good. Most of us had puddings, but my lemon sponge was pretty soggy whereas I expected it to be light and sitting in sauce. Disappointed. What really struck a bad note for me though was the absolutely disgusting state of the carpets which are clearly the original old patterned pub carpets and actually looked caked in black greasy patches. It honestly almost turned my stomach to see them. Please get rid of them even if it means bare floorboards or tiles. At least they could be kept clean. I imagine if you tore the carpet up into strips it would make excellent fuel! I don't want to be nauseated by the carpets before I sit down to eat. Even the coir flooring in the separate annex looked in shreds, If you are setting out to offer high quality food you really need to ensure the surroundings are appropriate. For the customer, an outward sign of lack of hygiene like this makes you wonder what is behind the scenes! I would not go back until I heard that had been replaced and wouldn't order pizza again. Sorry!

Enjoyed a wonderful lunch at The Wheatsheaf on a glorious sunny day. We sat in the pretty and quiet garden with a bottle of white wine and had the mackerel pate with pickled rhubarb, followed by the cod and chicken. All delicious and way above normal pub grub in terms of presentation and taste etc. Service was excellent too.

The food was tasteless. I had the mussels. Obviously frozen as flowery and inedible., the sauce was tasteless. My wife had the cod which had no taste and just placed on a bed of not sure what. My nephew had five slices of tasteless lamb on a bed of ??? for £24.00 quid without sides. Quite ridiculous and with surly service. £ 150 quid for three was a total waste. Never again.

We were recommended this pub since it got a new chef. I had the trout with horseradish cream and charred bread, absolutely delicious. My husband had wild garlic and potato soup, also lovely. We then had the beef roast which was very tasty, great roasties and Yorkshire pud. The carrots were not quite cooked enough and the beef was a bit stringy. Dessert was a very lovely custard cream and rhubarb, wish there had been more than 3 small pieces of rhubarb because it was gorgeous and Rick had the coconut icecream, again very tasty

Not sure what to expect but very pleasantly surprised. Nice welcome even though they were busy. Smoked salmon Bruschetta was very tasty. The gammon with mashed swede and winter cabbage was excellent helped by the side of chips. Wife also enjoyed the in vogue beetroot humus starter and fish curry main. Nice warm atmosphere and understood why they were full on a Saturday lunchtime. Will visit again.

Myself and a friend visited Hungerford on Saturday and called in here for some lunch. The service was quick and really friendly. They had a fantastic choice of ales with some local choices. I ordered a pizza and it was outstanding, you could tell the ingredients were well sourced. Overall a really enjoyable experience here and I would highly recommend it.

Great location for a stopover on the way to Cornwall. The service was impeccable and the food was 5* honestly it was so good. We had the smoked trout start and then a pizza each. The pizzas are to die for. We will definitely return if we are in the area again!

We were late for our table due to traffic but this wasn’t a problem for our hosts. Very busy for a Thursday so glad we did book. Menu was small which is great as I still couldn’t decided. Food was prompt to come out and piping hot and delicious. Even with the new Covid rules they were quite happy to do us a coffee at 9.30pm. When passing again will definitely pop in. Thanks to Ollie and his team!

Nice country pub. good food. slightly expensive but worth it. Feels like a very popular place. We sat at the back garden - great outdoor space

We have used The Wheatsheaf to meet up with friends. The staff are always friendly and accommodating and the food fresh and delicious. Lots of interesting dishes to try.

Not as special as it should be. Food okay - but not special. Cold despite fire. Dirty. Beer choice okay. Service adequate.

Friendly staff. Good venue for children and dogs. Interesting menu but a bit limited. Plenty of parking.

Had a great lunch at The Wheatsheaf. Professional service and lovely ambience. A warm welcome extended to all.

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit despite a rude interruption from an aggressive man. Delicious food and drink and friendly staff as always.

Can’t recommend highly enough! The food is fantastic and the atmosphere is friendly, creative and innovative. Great drinks and friendly staff. What more could you want?!

I visited The Wheatsheaf on Saturday evening with my family as we're staying in the village. The food was delicious - the best I have tasted on my holiday so far! Portion sizes were perfect, staff were very friendly and accommodating. Overall wonderful experience and we're already talking about revisiting before we leave!

last night I took my family down to the local pub and was astounded bu the use of organic and locally used food and drinks on offer at the weatsheaf. What went down particularly well with the bresaola pizza (wood fired!!) was a lovely refreshing pint of the vegan and organic blonde brothers. As a family we were made to feel welcome from the moment we walked in the pub not just by the bar staff with there radiating smiles and helpful comments and answers to questions but also by all the locals making for a lovely vibe and spirit perfect for any occasion. Really look forward to returning especially for one of the music nights !!

Once again, a lovely Sunday spent at the Wheatsheaf for Wood-fired pizzas and wine with the hounds! Thanks again

I attend this public house on a Saturday late evening with my friends. On arrival we was greeted by a very unfriendly barmaid! Whilst being served my friend was discriminated for wearing a 'Trachsuit'. This unfriendly barmaid then sat us at not one but four different tables as our face did not suit the locals! So we ordered food to our disgrace we was given what looked like microwaved meals ! I would not recomend this public house and was very disheartened at the service and food received!

Had family lunch, party of 7, we arrived just gone 12 noon and packed with first 30 mins. Kids loved pizza, so did I just kids ate most of mine as well. Emily loved her short rib beef tagliatelle, did think it was a bit on the small side as she ate the lot and she’s only 7! Best pint of beer I’ve had out for a long time. Ice creams all very good. Looking forward to our return visit.

Had lunch. Menu fantastic and it changes regularly. Food - delicious, have been a few times and never had food that was less than great. Portions - just the right size. Service - friendly and efficient. Wine by the glass - very good value. Soft drinks (I'm told) very good. Also told pizzas are great. Dog welcoming.

Lunch on Christmas Eve, waited several minutes before 3 staff serving noticed 4 of us waiting. Showed to table and left waiting another 5 mins. Had to get up to ask for menu, and to ask again for wine list. Staff v nonchalant. Chased for food which arrived after 40 mins by which time place was near empty (so no excuse). Food was ok but pricey. Uninspiring experience

Visited this establishment and had Christmas lunch, the portions are small and the food was certainly not cooked to my satisfaction. The vegetables were, one Brussel sprout grated, a couple of Parsnips which were soggy and floppy, a carrot and beetroot. However the biggest disaster were the roast potatoes which were hard in the middle and had nothing crispy about them at all. The deserts was very nice. I have visited this pub several times and have always been underwhelmed . Other members of my party enjoyed their lunch excluding the vegetables and the potatoes all I can say is if you visit this pub good luck

I came and ate at the Wheatsheaf quite recently. It was so delicious! I have a few dietary requirements that can make me feel worried and conscious about dining out. They were so accommadating and considerate..... (not everywhere is) It is also rare to go and eat somewhere knowing every ingredient is sourced so carefully. I have the duck to start with a beetroot remoulade and a blackberry molasses, IT WAS AMAZING!

Visited again because we love their ethos, but the experience is always so good. With a warm and very Christmassy atmosphere, a lovely mug of homemade mulled wine and the most delicious Kedgeree - loads of fish and very creative. Always a delight!

This pub was quaint and full of character with delightful staff. However, having read the glowing reviews of previous diners, we were somewhat underwhelmed. My Smoked Haddock Kedgeree was beautifully cooked but rather frugal as a portion, and particularly the amount of fish. My husband had the Steak and Ale pie, which resembled a slice, and again the portion was frugal. We appreciate the ingredients were organic, but it was poor value for money.

We had a lovely meal with friendly, efficient service. The menu had so many things to try we wished we had longer! The coffee bread under the Welsh rarebit was amazing, and the sunflower seed cake moist and tasty.

We were recommended by a friend to try this pub. Such a lovely surprise. Fantastic quality home cooked real food, all organically sourced. Lovely atmosphere, very clean, cozy with a real fire. I had cauliflower curry leaves soup to die for, followed by stunning salmon tart, my husband had welsh rabbit followed by the best plump fresh mussels ever. Good sized portions, the staff happy and smiley, a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Thank you. My only comment, you are missing a trick as I would have bought a jar of the bean piccalilli had they been for sale on the bar! We shall return.

A couple of weeks ago we decided to pop in to The Wheatsheaf Inn because we had not been for a while and we were not disappointed.

Lovely pub, great sustainability, found in the Waitrose magazine. Had the pizza all organic local flour and locally sourced free range pork.

I was delighted with my pan fried trout. The dish was beautifully constructed. The trout was exquisitely cooked light and fluffy with a lovely crispy skin, it sat on a perfect portion of creamy Mash patato which in turn was in a velvety smooth flavoursome crab bisque with capers. A 10/10 The staff were very friendly and polite. We had friends arrive after lunch and the staff and chef said they were able to do them a couple of pizza's. I recommend this pub also for its great range of real ale.

Excellent food from a very varied and interesting menu. A list of local suppliers supports their organic credentials. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The landlord supports local artists and there is an interesting selection of bric a brac upstairs.

A great little pub with some excellent real ale including at least one locally brewed and was only 20 minutes walk from Littlecote house hotel

On the basis of reviews we assumed we were in for a treat. What we got was very average food in an average pub. Fairly expensive ad what is the voluntary carbon offset charge for? Never had that before when eating out.

This pub really is visionary. Organic, sustainable, integrated into the community. Love it. Plus the food is delicious and the staff are lovely. The pizzas are really special.

Stumbled across The Wheatsheaf by accident, but, man, what a find!

Beautiful setting, well maintained, friendly staff, freshly prepare food. The menu isn’t big but that is a good thing as everything on it is cooked perfectly and it has great choice in the dishes they choose to put on the menu.

In a lovely part of the world, with an interesting drive from the M4. Very close to Hungerford, the Inn is easily found on a main route through the village. The narrow entrance to the car park is right next to the Inn and might easily be missed.

We stopped for lunch on the Easter Bank Holiday weekend (Saturday). Needless to say they were very busy. The young man serving behind the bar was very polite and helpful. As for the the food, I chose the cheese and pickle sandwich which consisted of a nice piece of pitta with the said filling. My wife decided to go for the vegetarian bubble and squeak with poached egg, which came beautifully prepared and presented.Both dishes were delicious .It is worth noting that they try to serve as much Organic produce as possible, which did not go unnoticed (given we only buy organic at home). So all in all a good visit and would certainly return. Finally and a big vote of thanks to the team.

Gem of a place. Warm welcome, perfect service and delicious food. Highly recommended - well worth a visit.

Stopped for dinner and too much wine, passing through in our camper. Lovely staff, lovely food, lovely pub. How successful country pubs used to be with an up to date twist. First time I've ordered crisps at a bar and received them freshly homemade from the kitchen. Well done gang. Deservedly busy, you nailed it.

We've been here a couple of times and the welcome has always been warm and friendly. The Wheatsheaf is a nice old fashioned pub that has managed the transition to gastro pub without losing touch with its roots. The food is delicious but if you just want a snack at lunchtime then they are happy to oblige.

We love going here, the food and atmosphere is always fantastic and on the rare occasion when the service has been slow, they have gone out of their way to compensate for it which is appreciated. Our favourite place to go in the area.

We stayed two nights down the road from The Wheatsheaf and couldn't have asked for a better local! The food was delicious and there were several local ales to sample. They also had several homemade liquers to sample. I loved their homemade ice cream and rosemary crisps!

It was great to find a pub that lives up to its reputation. The menu is creative and different with lots of options. Really friendly and attentive service made this a really enjoyable meal. It may not be cheap but it's definitely worth it. We went for lunch on a Sunday and although they don't do a traditional roast, it was a really good meal and for a mid January Sunday, it was packed so they're obviously doing something right!

We booked a table for a Saturday night. Turned up on time and basically got forgotten about until someone came to see what we wanted to eat. Then we were told about the boards....

Excellent village pub with a focus on organic and seasonal food. Visited with two friends for Saturday lunch.

Great pub with 80% organic food. Small menu but well cooked that changes every fortnight. Well worth a visit.

Charming Pub with the most delicious food, great staff and generally a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Visited for the second time to this pub and had the most wonderful rib of beef for Sunday lunch, along with amazing veggies. I asked the lovely waitress where the beef was from and she told me it was from a farm 5 miles away! Absolutely delicious and amazing hospitality. All slurped down with Ramsbury Gold. 5 stars!!!

Have been here many times and previously reviewed favourably. The menu has always been quirky but this time I struggled to find a suitable choice for as was disappointed with visit. It’s a nice welcoming venue and the service was considerately and friendly.

Went for Sunday lunch and the pub was full which gave me the impression it was a popular pub for food, unfortunately there are only two roasts on the menu, one vegetarian which was ideal for my wife as she is a vegetarian and roast beef.

Met my daughter here prior to flying out. Interesting menu and some lovely real ales.Fabulous old building too.

Although initially a little perturbed by the barman (who was obviously new) and one of the waitresses- saying there was no table free for Sunday lunch....we did find a table and were pleasant surprised! The food was good, reasonably priced and the locals lent a warm, welcoming ambiance to the pub! A gem of a place....just make sure there is a Sunday roast available for latecomers!!!!

We ate here as a group of six. The food was fabulous, but especially the apple crumble pudding. Just delicious. Lauren, front of house, was very friendly and gave us tips on what food she particularly liked. Would definitely recommend.

The staff are lovely, very friendly, and the food is exquisite, with many vegetarian choices. Lovely atmosphere. Nothing negative to say. Loved that they have a blackboard showing where the food is sourced from - all local, lots of good organic food.

Lovely food served by pleasant staff in traditional pub setting. We were especially impressed that some members of the group on a neighbouring table were, through no fault of their own, over an hour late due to being caught up in traffic as the M4 was closed. The lunchtime kitchen and menu were kept open for them - good customer service

It was a day of extremely heavy traffic so Popped in for a pizza but were a bit early - however the lovely landlord put the pizza oven on especially for my granddaughter- she said he was a very kind an and the pizza was the tastiest one ever!

Chosen as a convenient mid-point location to meet a friend for a leisurely catch-up. We found your pub delightful, the staff charming and friendly and the food delicious. Today was an exceptionally sunny autumnal day and so we enjoyed our time sitting in your garden. My friend and I have both vowed to return. Thank you

First time in the pub and I’m afraid the last. The food was extremely poor. I had Crayfish for a starter priced at £7.50 and there had to be less than a teaspoon of fish in the whole dish so I complained and it was deducted. We ordered 4 steaks, one of which had more fat than meat, again complained. The deserts were also poor, overpriced. Our bill was £170, and that included 4 pints and two gin and tonics so we paid heavily for poor food. The couple next to us complained that they had a slug in their salad!

Ate here yesterday evening, table for 7 at 20.30. Really great experience. Last food orders 21.00. Well behaved dogs are welcomed. Service attentive and friendly. Wheatsheaf lager very good as was house bottle of red.

A real village pub with a difference. Obviously popular with the locals but a menu that’s anything but predictable. I ate locally caught crayfish and a delicious mackerel and beetroot pizza (sounds weird but really worked). My wife’s chicken liver pate was as good as it gets and the arrancini was Roman standard. We’ll be back with the rest of the family.

Visited Chilton to see the setting for the BBC's Victorian Garden series and looked this pub up on TripAdvisor. Good advice. The beer, the company, the food and the service were excellent. A definite recommend and will return. The pizzas are the speciality. Sounds a bit churlish to say food slightly expensive in comparison for visitors from 'up north' like me,yet would still stump up as it was delicious.

Found this little gem during a bike ride in the country to blow away the cobwebs on Saturday morning. Decided to return on the Sunday for lunch. I was particularly drawn to it because they served food that is almost entirely organic and all the produce is sourced very local.

Lovely pub in the gorgeous village of Chilton Folliat. Interesting menu,chose wood fired pizza...they were amazing probably the best eaten in UK. Will look forward to a return visit for dinner.Highly recommended.

What an amazing pub! We love this place. Amazing food, brilliant atmosphere and really friendly staff. We will be back.

We’ve been coming here since the owners took over. We’ve seen so many changes and really enjoyed seeing how it’s improved over the last couple of years! It’s so nice to have a pub nearby that has fresh, organic and local food. The pizza is the best I’ve ever had! Would recommend The Wheatsheaf to anyone looking for somewhere that has good quality, tasty food.

What a shame I don’t live closer... Friendliest staff I’ve met, delicious food, well priced tasty pints, beautiful building... I’d recommend it more highly, but I wouldn’t want to not get a table next time I come this way.

Finally a pub that cares about its food and produce... mainly organic, great food, even better pizzas.

The food here is spectacular. Cute little place out the way. Menu had plenty even for my vegetarian self. Beautiful pub and the staff are just as beautiful, I'm in love 😍

This is a lovely pub in the countryside. My husband and I both had the Spanish pizza which was amazing. What let it down was when I checked the bill before paying there was a £1 "voluntary donation". When I queried this with the bar staff I was told they partnered with a local charity and this was a donation to it. They didn't know the name of the charity but thought it was to do with homelessness.

We had lunch in this pub on Sunday and ordered drinks but at that point did not realise that they didn't serve Sunday lunches, however we looked at the menu and decided to stay. I had ham, egg and chips which you would think was reasonably straightforward. Sadly the chips were a dark yellow and tasted disgusting which I think was due to the oil they were cooked in. I mentioned this to the person behind the bar and she said that they cleaned the oil once a week - this is not obviously often enough, The two fried eggs were greasy and the ham was fatty. Sadly we will not be returning again. A shame when you spend £40 on drinks and food and its a disaster.

Quick dinner stop with two little people and two big people - the little ones were entertained and entertained the owners - even treated to a tour of the kitchen! Food was excellent (wood-fired pizza's and aged beef burgers) and the lovely organic drinks available. Really friendly, really tasty - highly recommend.

Another fabulous lunch and great service. All four starters were superb, pizza's lovely and the burgers had more beef in than I have ever seen.

Great evening, friendly and helpful staff and lovely food in a good atmosphere and well priced. Booked the day we went a table of 8 and had our own little alcove. Will definately go again.

Excellent quality of food and drink. The service was very good , swift and friendly. It is the second time we have travelled for an hour to meet up with friends for lunch here. On both visits we have been well satisfied.

The menu has lots of interest and plenty of choice for veggies and carnivores. Good service and the owners have turned an ailing pub around.

I've been into the pub a few times for a quick drink and finally I got to have food as well. My father in law arranged celebration meal for their wedding anniversary dinner with the chef as he wanted fillet steak. All I can say is that it's the best steak I have had out for a very long time. Chips and veg was very good all home cooked and prepared. Choc caramel tart was also very good, thin and crisp pastry with good quality chocolate. Eton mess as good as well. Excellent Syrah and we had 4 happy diners. We shall be back again very soon indeed. Keep up the great food and will be buying steak for home from the local organic farm where they source their beef from - Nesbitt Farm.

Popped in on this fine sunny Saturday, having walked the dog, so just wanted a drink and a bit of lunch. Superb Spanish chicken and goats cheese pizzas, then shared the most amazing salted caramel pudding. Excellent Ramsbury Ales and decent selection of Gins. Brilliant staff and the atmosphere is like sharing an 'all are welcome' family lounge.
