The best restaurants serving British food in Oxenhall and Newent North East Forest of Dean South West

We stopped here on the way to see the wild daffodils. The food was very good, nicest salad dressing I have had. Good menu with uncommon choices. The staff were very kind and helpful.

Service was superb. Hubby thought food was great - pie& chips, however steak disappointing. First one over cooked, replaced quickly service super, second steak not great quality.

None of us could fault the food but the service was poor. We had a table booked for 6.30 but had no confirmation so I rang just to check and was told yes the booking OK. We got there slightly early but it took ages to even have someone take our order. In fact a couple whos reservation was for later than ours had their order taken and had finished their meal before our order had even been taken. It then took over 30 mins to arrive. It looked like there was one chap doing everything. We would go back purely to see if the service was a one off but if it happened again even the excellent food wouldn't entice us there.

My partner and I had dinner here over the May bank holiday, it was our first time visiting. The restaurant itself is lovely, light and airy with beautiful views over the adjacent vineyard. Very attentive and friendly service from Marta. We shared a few plates between us, everything was tasty, and there was a reasonable vegetarian selection. I thought overall the menu was quite pricey, and portions on the small side (even for tapas/light bites).

Avoid at all costs. Received £100 parking fine for stopping here for 30mins. Signs are not lit up in the dark, not made aware of requirements for permit. Absolutely disgusting management
