The best restaurants serving British food in Harwell Vale of White Horse South East

Recently reopened and what a great face lift, just what was needed. Great atmosphere, now full of life with a really friendly welcome. Can't wait for the full time food offering

Booked a table for 5 adults and 7 children for my wife's 40th surprise birthday meal Saturday 22nd February at 1800. We all had starters, mains and deserts with of course a mixture of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. The starters and mains were all pre ordered, all of the meals both children and adults were faultless, hot, served very efficiently by the waiting staff who were very polite and helpful. We left the table at about 22:30, the food, atmosphere , the whole evening was fantastic whith only positive comments and feedback from everyone that night and morning after. An oustanding evening, a big thank you to Pete and his team both front of house and kitchen staff (great cooking chef) What a transform, just what a village pub needed.

Venue gone down hill a lot lately, no stock, food quality, ages to get served, but one member of staff always seems to be able to resolve it for me, blonde young lady behind the bar really brings customer service to another level. Think her name is Scarlett if I heard correctly. If was not for her, my business would be elsewhere

The Apple Cart is a perfect setting for a large family gathering. Service always extremely courteous and professional (Chelsea W was taking care of us last time). The steaks are excellent and with 25% off for serving forces, makes it a truly viable alternative to staying at home!

We had dinner there last Satuday evening for my sisters 50th Birthday. Was so much fun, really great, local pub, fantastic atmosphere, that we could walk to. I had the burger which frankly was incredible - enormous and utterly delicious, thank you. Will definitely be back again soon.

This is a lovely old pub with a probably 1980/90s hotel extension on the side. Friendly reception and waiting staff. Fairly minimalist old school breakfast although my eggs Benedict (oddly with bacon rather than ham) was tasty and well cooked. I didn’t eat in the restaurant so can’t really comment. The public rooms are older worlde characterful but the general feel of the bedrooms is dated (stained dark wood, chipped furniture, not enough power points, poorly sealing windows, particularly a problem if you are facing the A34 trunk road). Attempts have been made to update (nice bed throws and a capsule coffee machine in the rooms) but it can’t hide the reality. The place needs investment to gut it and bring up to date. Perfectly usable but not a “destination” or up to international standards.
