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

Popped in for a drink on a boxing day walk. A lovely pub with friendly staff; and most excitingly the wonderful Nightjar Stout from Wye Valley Brewery. Lovely!

Called in here whilst we were visiting the area. We had been to this pub before on a previous trip in the area so knew we would like it. Want to give a special thanks to the chef, Scott. We went for their special night only to find they weren't doing it anymore but Scott was very kind in doing it for us. Food was excellent. All the staff were fantastic. We will deffo be visiting again next time we're in the area and make it one of our special treat meal out. Thanks again all.

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.
