A great family firework evening! Really appreciated all the effort Craig, Barbara and the team put in, to make this a special event. The baked potatoes were delicious (these would be a great addition to the regular menu.) The band and whole atmosphere was super. Thank you.

Has a warm, gentle, community feel: welcoming, sleepy but aware of customers' needs. Good beer, good cake

We had a lovely lunch at this warmly friendly, community-owned pub after a great four mile circular walk along the river Evenlode and back over Oaklands Farm. The food is good pub fare - plus a delicious first birthday cake when we were there; the atmosphere is very friendly and the village is full of interesting things. Spread the word!

The White Horse is a wonderful traditional village community pub with a relaxed friendly atmosphere. We have eaten here several times since the pub reopened in May this year, each time we’ve had an excellent meal. Whether it be a Saturday morning English cooked breakfast, a traditional Sunday roast or something from the specials board. Tasty, unpretentious food and good value too! The bar and restaurant area are modest in size so booking is probably advisable, however there is a lovely large garden with lots of picnic tables. Real ale fans are well catered for with two different choices on tap from small local breweries for each of our visits, they were spot on. Well worth a visit.

We had a wonderful Sunday lunch after a walk from Stonesfield to the Roman villa and back today. My chicken, stuffed and wrapped in parma ham, was juicy and delicious and came with generous amounts of well-cooked veg, excellent gravy and a huge Yorkshire. My veggie sister enjoyed her roast too. Great to have a local pub back open. It's friendly and unpretentious with very good service. And best of all great value! Thank you, The White Horse team. We will be back.

We were regular customers at the Black Prince in Woodstock before it closed and there was a good reason it was the No. 1. Craig’s warm welcome and Barbara’s warm food were enough to persuade us to walk 1hr 30m. We weren’t disappointed, the ‘legendary’ suet pastry chicken and leek pie is as good as ever, I’d walk 2 hours for that! Good burgers, salads and haloumi fries too. The food was always great tasting and great value and still is. The beer garden is lovely, plenty of space and walled to keep out too much breeze. Stonesfield has waited a long time to have its pub back. It will have been worth the wait.

A pub saved by the community and a fantastic job they did! A lovely traditional pub, with 2 rooms, one more bar the other more restaurant and a decent size garden. Super staff serving great local beer and super food, I had “just” a sandwich, all at a very reasonable price. I’ll be sad if I don’t get to there soon.

We were visiting friends who live in Stonesfield and enjoyed an excellent evening at the White Horse yesterday. A truly warm friendly community atmosphere as soon as we walked in, friendly professional staff team and the menu had good varied choices but of a size that allowed it to be freshly cooked and food was delicious. Thoroughly recommend.

Excellent village pub. Local beer on tap and the food was excellent. Atmosphere is very pub-y and friendly. There are dog friendly outdoor tables with large umbrellas that are first come first serve, while the inside is reservable and is often booked up on the weekends. Prices are reasonable, portions were good but not excessive. I had the fish and chips... was on par or better than most I have had. My wife had the chicken leek pie and it was excellent. One of my boys had the ploughman's lunch and was very pleased.

We stayed in Stonesfield for a few days and called in at the White Horse for a few nights whilst here. Craig was so welcoming and chatty and we loved the whole feel of the pub and the local community. It’s going to be a great success and we wish you luck in everything you do. Food was fab and dogs are welcomed which was great as well.

Closed, awaiting a responsible owner to run it for the community. Edit: Now reopened and owned by the community. The beer selection is good and the food is great. Give it a go when you are passing and go out of your way to pass

Nice to see the pub open again in the village, it must have been around 40 years since I was last in there. The menu is small at this stage but understandable in the early stages of the business. The food was good, presented well, a good portion size and excellent value for money. Service was just slightly slow after asking for the bill and the time taken for this to arrive.

Now under community ownership, The White Horse was a great place to enjoy a pint and a sandwich, both very reasonably priced. Cosy surroundings and a warm welcome. A chilled, friendly atmosphere. Big beer garden too for warmer days.

Was great to see Craig today in The wonderful white horse pub in Stonesfield, he’s always been so good to my mum. We had the most delicious and wonderful Sunday lunch sat in the wonderful garden in the sunshine, followed by a delicious dessert along with a couple of delicious lovely cold drinks, the food was delicious, the staff led by Craig were exceptionally friendly, helpful and polite, the food was amazing and sitting sitting in the wonderful garden in the beautiful summers day was exceptional, not been to this pub before, but without doubt, we will be back.

A miserable rainy Saturday felt like a lovely relaxing autumn lunchtime! Very friendly and nothing was to much trouble in this Pub located in the quiet Cotswold village of Stonesfield, we relaxed with drinks in the small bar area while perusing the simple but adventurous menu, well thought out with, I’m sure, something to suit anyone’s taste. Our hosts were both chatty and attentive and allowed us just the right amount of time before taking our order (we being a group of six booked at the very last minute) and the food arrived very quickly, served on hot but not scalding plates! Our six year old diner couldn’t believe her luck when she saw the portion size of her sausage with mash & beans but had no trouble in clearing the plate!! The rest of us all tries different dishes from the menu and we’re pleasantly surprised that food served so quickly could be so good. We all agreed we will definitely return and all of us have the whole experience a well deserved 5 stars.

I stopped here by chance as I had a few hours to kill. I thoroughly recommend that you seek out this lovely gastropub. Reasons? It is nicely decorated. There is a lovely atmosphere and everyone was really friendly. And last but not least the food was delicious and not expensive. All in all a very pleasant experience and one I hope to repeat.

Cannot recommend Paddy and the Cotswold Pizza Company enough. Having explored many options for the evening food at our wedding just outside Gloucester, Paddy stood out with glowing reviews on several platforms - having worked with him I see why! He was always available to answer questions over the phone and emails and even took time out of his weekend to visit the venue with us a few weeks before the wedding. The pizzas were very reasonably priced and on the night were a hit, with everyone was raving about them the following day. Thank you so much to Paddy and the team for contributing to a stress-free planning process and wonderful day!

Very poor food. Burger was greasy, Bacon was full of fat. The chicken burger was a mess and the chicken bites were covered in a tar of a bbq sauce
