This is a franchise cafe as I learnt but the coffee is Costa, however, the coffee doesn't taste how it suppose to be, and they start to charge people for coffee cup-take away! The irony is that the cafe is in the middle of science campus and not everyone has the time to take their cup before getting to work!

Quite the poorest value fish and chips I have tasted in a long time. The extortionate price of £10 was not reflected in the quality of the regular-sized meal I ordered, nor in the surliness of the individual who served me. The piece of fish was not freshly cooked. The batter was thin and the contents were dry and unpalatable. I had to throw the meal away. I feel that a score of 2 is over-generous as there were few-if any-redeeming features.

Ordered 2 roast dinners from the Merry Miller. Food was delicious! Plenty of fresh vegetables, gravy and a lovely Yorkshire pudding to mop up the gravy. Fully recommend this Sunday takeaway dinner 😋

So Disappointing!!! Before I start, I should say we have been regulars at the Sparsholt (even when it was called The Star), however we had not been for approximately six months. We had a restaurant reservation for 19:00hrs for what was my granddaughters 13th birthday treat. We were excited on our arrival, but unfortunately that is where it stopped. We arrived to a virtually empty ( 1 table in use) establishment on a Saturday night, to be greeted by two front of house staff who looked as though they belonged in a local pub. Gone has the smart but casual dress code for the staff. After waiting an age to order our drinks, we then had to ask for the menus, and even then had to ask again to order. There was no ‘table checking’ whatsoever. Whilst we were waiting, another group arrived and went to sit in the restaurant area. When the time came to go to our table, to my astonishment we were asked if we minded sitting in the bar on a table that was just adjacent to us!! The place was virtually empty, we were dressed smartly and we certainly didn’t want a bar meal. The staff were very accommodating and showed us to a table in the main restaurant where there were now two other tables occupied. My granddaughter ordered the prawn starter, which resembled a portion of panco prawns from Iceland, whilst my wife and I had the ham hock. The starters had lost all their wow factor, where very little effort or time was spent on presentation. When the time came to clear the plates, we were even asked to pass our own plates across the table, to save the waitress walking around us. The mains followed, with little improvement. I had the venison pave, consisting of two medallions of venison which turned out to be so tuff I couldn’t eat it, with the whole plate overpowered by the sharpness of red cabbage. My wife and granddaughter had the cod main. As the was no table checking, and not a waiter/waitress to be seen, I ended up not eating my main (was refunded) as the rest of the table had finished their meals. Desserts followed, which were unremarkable. All in all, this was a disappointing evening. We had looked forward to treating our granddaughter but the whole Sparsholt experience has changed. I know times are hard in the hospitality industry but basic service and attention to detail doesn’t cost. We have cancelled our Xmas reservations and unfortunately won’t be returning soon. It’s such a disappointment because this was our destination restaurant (30 minute drive away) as we live in a town full of fast food chain eateries.

Visited this pub during a short stay in Bourton. Lovely staff and food. We were a group of 8 and the team were very flexible catering for our requirements including adapting a vegetarian meal to vegan. We had really good fun and were only sorry we didn’t have time to visit again!

We have been visiting the College Oak since it was built. Inbuilt. In fact, I can actually remember it being built. During this period of time, the staff generally provide very good service, and they’ve always been as helpful as possible. As time has passed, my mobility has become very reduced, and I cannot carry a beer and walk with crutches. Even with one crutch, I can’t carry a glass to the table without spilling a lot of it. Until now, the staff I’ve always been very helpful and have brought some drinks to the table. Nothing was too much trouble in any shape or form. We visited for lunch Cheltenham races were on. The pub was quite crowded, which was nice to see. My wife went to the bar, ordered some drinks, set up a tab, and brought our drinks back. A short time later a waiter passed our table, I asked if he would bring me a pint of Strongbow. He replied that they don’t do table service, especially when the other guests at the bar are waiting to be served! Shortly after that, the female waiter passed, and I said, “Is it true that you don’t bring drinks to the table?” She replied, “ We’ve never done terrible service here. I’ve worked here for four weeks, and we never have. I was also told that if I want table service, I have to order the drinks through the app, and they will bring them to me. I’ve never been as disputed in my life. On the door at the premises, the landlord was asking for reviews, so I am happy to oblige!!!!!! Rather than just posting this, I thought I would telephone the landlord. When I called, I got a voicemail. I left a message asking the landlord to phone me.

We had a desert, the custard was cold…………… Come back Ed and Carole, you are badly missed.

We enjoyed our meals at the Plough last month, we were made to feel very welcome and although the pub was very busy we received first class service and food.

They forget the sauces and dips every time at the drive through. Doesn't seem to matter how many times you remind them at each window.
