The best restaurants in Christchurch and English Bicknor Forest of Dean South West

This place is the best ! Food is superb, really delicious, piping hot, beautifully presented.Desserts are fabulous. Great friendly family run pub.Lovely atmosphere, dogs welcomed.I have never had a better meal anywhere.

Amazing cafe the food is cooked and served very well, I've been coming here a while now they definitely deserve a great review. The cafe is clean and the owners are very friendly. If you find your self in Christchurch I recommend giving it a try you won't be disappointed

Wild Boar Focaccia is excellent!!! Along with perfect coffee and delicious Carrot cake too! Very helpful and friendly staff. Now our go to stop whilst cycling every Sunday! Highly recommend.

I had liver and bacon, liver although generous size was so overcooked it was tough also bacon burnt, no one asking for feedback very disappointed

A friendly pub with a modest but hearty menu. The food was excellent, good portions and great value. When we visited they clearly had a staffing problem and not everything was available. But for this it would be a clear 4 star. That said we would definitely pay another visit in the future. The eating areas are nice and there is plenty to keep young ones occupied.

We had a lovely Chinese from here just recently, I am from the area and it always smells nice. Only downside is that you have to wait long after being told how long to wait, but the food is great.

Such a welcoming visit into a proper pub. Locals, workers finishing after a shift and tourists like us staying at Forest Holidays. The footpath network is extensive and worth printing a map and not just relying on your phone but this is linked to Forest Holidays by a reasonably well lit footpath and has two local stores that don’t show up on Google maps on the way. We picked this pub based on reviews and the footpath as we have two kids and a dog. Staff were really welcoming and helpful, kid friendly and definitely dog friendly. As a result of the good food, good service and choice of seating options we opted for a return visit instead of trying the Dog and Muffler or the New Inn. If we make it out another night to one of those I will write a review accordingly.
