The best restaurants serving British food in Forest of Dean South West

The most amazing pub with amazing food. I couldn’t recommend this place enough. It’s the 2nd time in 2 weeks we have come here, despite living about 50 minutes away. Which just speaks for itself. The staff are so lovely and so welcoming. Our favourite pub by far, I can not wait for this new menu I that’s about to drop!

Definitely the best fish & chips in Gloucester Beautifully cooked fish Very large portion served with good portion of chips Ate at the pub but could have taken away Great value for money No hesitation in recommending the meal Top quality

Stopped here for Sunday dinner and then a Monday evening meal, both were amazing, sunday dinner, meat, gravy, veg, absolutely lovely, 1 thing I would have liked more cabbage with the veg, apart from that, knock out. Mo day evening meal, we had 2 meals off the classics, scampi and bangers and mash, partner loved the scampi with the tartar sauce and chips, bangers and mash, the banger were.....banging, the mash, lovely and creamy and the gravy was so nice, a definite stop when we are this way again and would travel here for Sunday dinner alone

Our sever, Cathy, was lovely, very polite, sociable and friendly. Our food and drinks were delicious. Would definitely recommend.

Great to have this in the garage, makes for a perfect pit stop 👌

Personally I think this place is excessively priced for the facilities and the reasons I will share with you. Importantly we were looked after by Summer, the young lady was polite, very helpful and efficient and is an asset to this establishment . We note that the bar closes at 5pm so you will have to go to the pub over the road . The Butchers for drinks . You are not allowed to bring drinks back to this hotel unless you want to be fined £600 ! The nearest town is 12 mins drive away in Coleford. I advise you book a table if eating out as everywhere is always busy. I advise you check your beds and rooms upon arrival. Sadly our room was ready but we found dirty underwear in our bed so had to request housekeeping to completely change our sheets , even though it had been done . The rooms are small but functional . Breakfast is comprised of a bacon or sausage bap, cereal , tea coffee and toast . No fry up here. So eat plenty because if your going up to the Castle for a wedding you will not have access to food until after the speeches which may be late afternoon. My advice is keep some snacks and things in your boot for emergencies . Breakfast is very early as is the 10am checkout time. Small free car park at the back. Like I said at the beginning I think it is overpriced as there are some local Inns nearby that may offer much more for your money.
