The best restaurants in Coleford East Forest of Dean South West

We arrived early for lunch on a Wednesday as we have a very large Dobermann dog and wanted to make sure there was space for him We were greeted by a lovely young lady and shown to our table. The fire was roaring as we walked in and we knew straight away we had found the perfect Cotswolds pub Lunch was delicious,we had the Welsh rarebit,washed down with a mulled wine and a pint of local lager Service was outstanding,friendly and efficient.Our Dobermann got plenty of strokes too! Highly recommend this place. Not sure that you will find any better in the Cotswolds. A lovely setting too!

My parents and I really enjoyed our Sunday roast. The roast beef was tender and they had a decent vegetarian option too. Really good value and the pub garden was sunny and warm.

First visit here, came for a light lunch. Staff were polite and helpful but the food left a lot to be desired. My Chai latte was lovely but my partner's coffee was awful. The cup was full to the brim with no room for the milk. I ordered the beef, mushroom & stilton panini with salad, crisps and home made coleslaw. It was cold in the middle, the cheese hadn't melted and the beef was tough. The coleslaw was weird, no flavour and the salad was just a couple of tomatoes and green leaves, no dressing. My partner's ham and tomato sandwich was very basic with the same salad. The surroundings are nice, with an orange tree by our table but the food was very basic and mine hadn't been toasted for long enough. Really not worth the money and I doubt we'll visit again.
