Met with family for a lunch on Sunday rather than a Sunday lunch. Absolutely fine, good selection of dishes and after a bit of a wait it all arrived, hot and tasty. No complaints and staff very friendly and helpful. We’ve been coming here for years as it is a convenient location sort of midway between London, Bristol and Andover and we will continue to be patrons. Only thing to watch is to be sure to register your vehicle at the console in reception if you park in their car park. We did that of course but the ghastly Britannia Parking people, who manage the process for the hotel, despite my son and I both registering our vehicles, sent me a £100 fine-he didn’t get one. The Bear staff cancelled it on my calling them but they did admit that the system was always going wrong and many customers had to call to get their fines cancelled. Why do hotels put up with such bad experiences for their customers? You have been warned!

Another 'spoons a bit out of the way, but not too difficult to get to. A bit brighter and more modern than your 'class' dark wood spoons. A long thin pub with the bar on your left as you walk in. Outdoor seating at the front and back when the weather smiles on us. As usual the staff were excellent and cheerful and the breakfast was as wonderful as always. The Guinness was excellent.

In the English countryside (though not far from London Gatwick), you’ll come across this pub and restaurant. It’s a bit of a ‘tardis’ looking small from the outside, but it expands into a cosy restaurant when you get behind the pub with its inviting fireplace and the tables hosting many a local. The staff is so welcoming and helpful and the menu hosts lots of British classics - pies, fish & chips, cottage pie croquettes (a personal favourite, I discovered). There were salads, lasagne and all sorts lovely eats augmented by old fashioned desserts. There’s a full bar with cocktails, a never ending list of beers and a small, but most acceptable wine list. It’s a great fine. Maybe a big off the beaten track, but one worth finding!

Stumbled across this pub whilst out on a day trip, and the food was lovely. Tasted delicious, really well presented. Today it is very quiet in here, start of the year and a weekday, but the interior is gorgeous, lovely view across the river. The only downside is that those with limited mobility, like myself, struggle a bit with all the steps. Once seated though, I've really enjoyed it and will be back later in the year

We were visiting the area for my daughter’s dance competition. We had a long drive 4-5 hours. We were so warmly welcomed by all the staff that evening. We were made to feel very special. The food and drinks were of great quality. A really good selection both food and drinks. The atmosphere was relaxing and very pleasant.

At was absolutely awful, they had less than half of what was on the menu! Everything was Luke warm , presentation was appalling! The ladies toilets were so bad I could bring myself to use them!! I tell tell our waitress who thankfully was very sweet, felt sorry for having to tell us that the menu was very sparse!! Never again! Rubbish!

we waited 1 hr and 10 mins for our food [ mixed grill ] it turned up cold and so was the peppercorn sauce .the waitress said they had staffing issues. she came back from the kitchen to say they will have to recook the meal or we could have a refund. we said will have refund as could not wait another hour plus to eat. i am diabetic and needed to eat something .no offer of help so my husband had to help me to the car and we went next door to Sainsburys and got a sandwich. i was very upset and disappointed as we go to the Drove a lot

Great Value for our Family Gathering 16 of us dined at The Sloop a couple of days before Christmas. Staff were really friendly and 'Liker' at the Carvery was a fun character. We were not seeking a fine dining experience, we simply wanted a space where we could together for a meal and drinks.... & The Sloop ticked those boxes.

Brilliant service by Jasmine, great food and reasonable prices. We stopped in on the way back from holiday with 5 children and Jasmine was great at ensuring we had all we need. Our food was prompt even though a table of 20 was also in that evening. 7 very happy people that evening.
