The best restaurants in Cotswold South West

Very disappointing dinner with friends. The french onion soup was watery with no depth of flavour. Looked as if the onions hadn't been caramelised. It came with cheese on toast served on the side which was rather bizarre but, had they served it correctly with the bread within the soup, the soup would have been soaked up entirely as there was so little of it. And it was lukewarm probably because it was served in a shallow soup bowl which meant such a small amount lost all heat on the journey from kitchen to table. The mains appeared and then disappeared while we were still eating our starters. When they returned, they were stone cold so had to be sent back. When the mains were served again, I would guess the lamb had been cooked from scratch but the pasta and venison pudding seemed to have been reheated. Both were dry. I then ordered affogato for dessert on the basis that no-one could make a mess of that. The icecream came out slightly melted and the jug of coffee was stone cold. Well, to be fair, the jug was warm, the coffee was cold! Not sure how they managed that. I will say that Johann who served us was very apologetic and handled the situation well. We didn't complain. We were staying at the hotel for 24 hours and didn't want to spend that precious time talking to hotel staff instead of each other and since Johann told us he didn't have the power to refund, we decided to just pay and leave.

Menu was quite limited for non meat eaters. Chose French Onion Soup, followed by fish of the day; Stonebass. Both were ok, but to pay over £30 for a small portion of fish is crazy. My wife had Cheese Soufflé, followed by Belly Pork, both ok but not exceptional. Her pudding; Lemon Meringue was not pleasant, and she left most of it. We had breakfast on two days, and whilst the eggs were ok, smoked haddock was very “ripe” and lacked the hollandais sauce as on the menu. The bread used for toast was on the cheap side, and tasted awful. All a bit pretentious.

The guy who works here is rude and condescending. Dare you not be a perfect coffee expert and ask for advice on which drink to choose.

You won’t beat this place. The food is amazing. It’s a regular stop for us, whether it’s their winter warmer soup and crumble for lunch or the main menu. You won’t be disappointed.

I was told to come and try the best pizza in the area. Hmm, ok I'll give it a try. Damn excellent pizza guys. Thank you. Plenty free parking, nice atmosphere, very friendly helpful staff. I will be back!!

I walked in and was immediately profiled by a staff member. He said I hadn’t bought a drink and also picked out 8 of my friends even though 3 of them had already. They told me it wasn’t a social club and we needed to a buy a drink only minutes after walking in. Fundamentally the lack of 18+ signage and the disrespectful staff member Will ruined our experience and made us feel not welcome. I will not be returning and neither will my 8 friends who are locals to the area.

I once saw a documentary about a frog in South America, where they said the secretion it produced was the most addictive substance on earth. It was so powerful, it sparked wars between tribes, caused men to fight to the death, and ripped families apart. But if those tribesmen had ever tasted a 7A brownie, they'd realize that frog's secretion would seem like nothing. If you ever try one, though, I hope you don’t live too far away, because you’ll find yourself chasing that high, coming back over and over again.

Went to pick up some lovely fresh veg and had a gluten free cheese scone, hot chocolate and gluten free cake. Best place around for managing cross contamination: separate tools & preparation area for gluten free, staff were very knowledgeable about coeliac disease. And cheese scones & cake were delicious. I've been multiple times and will be returning! I would highly recommend

Superb..truly superb. Attentive staff,excellent food, bottled drinks.Very talented chef. Pleasant ambience. Definitely a place to eat at.

Came for Mothers day treat, rang up week before to book a table and told to get there early which we did. My daughter has a disability and feeding tube of which she was attached to her pump, we were told we could not sit in restaurant, no one in it but all tables booked out. We sat outside and it was cold, my daughter suffered. No one had sat at any of the tables in the half hour we were there for breakfast, the cafe was empty, not a good way to treat someone with a disability, very unkind. The pancakes did not taste freshly cooked either, so very sad.

Had a one night stay here with our two dogs, and can highy recommend. Gorgeous location, a lovely dog friendly room and an absolutely amazing dinner. Staff were friendly and welcoming. We loved it!

We have just had lunch at this lovely little pub. The service and food were excellent and the atmosphere lovely. No rushing and very friendly. We will definitely visit again - its a little gem and so nice not to have a pretentious restaurant which abound in the Cotswolds. Thank you for letting us stay and chatter until 3.0 p.m.

Amazing pork and apple sausage roll.

Stopped for a coffee with our dog on a walk around the estate. Lovely coffee and flapjack. The lady was very friendly too. Beautiful countryside and a thoroughly enjoyable walk.

Great kabab van, love the mixed kabab
