Cotswold towns are not short of charming, historic pubs but the Porch House has a particular claim. It’s said to be the oldest pub in England, dating back to 975AD. This is no idle claim as its timbers have been carbon dated to approximately 1000 AD and it still has witch marks above the 16th century fireplace. Many original features have been retained - low ceilings and heavy wooden beams, crooked staircases, and small, cosy, rustic nooks. If you want character, then this is the place. You can walk in for a drink but if you want to eat, you’ll have to book ahead. We couldn’t get a table the first night we tried but we were able to book for a few nights later. The menu is seasonal and they try to introduce local produce. Overall the food was good - not memorable, but still good. The meals were hearty and traditional but much better than standard pub grub. We enjoyed the beef dish and pie although the mussels entree was disappointing as the mussels were quite small and were not plump and juicy. Overall a nice dinner in a very atmospheric, historic spot.

Having not been here in over a year we thought we would have an evening out as we had always enjoyed the food and atmosphere, sadly we were disappointed and did not end up staying for food. Firstly on entering we could not smell and food smells only a damp musty smell. We ordered drinks and were shocked at the price, over £10 for a shandy and half a glass of lime and soda. On being seated upstairs it felt chilly, the table was grubby and the light feature on the table did not work. Awful pop music playing in the background was being drowned out by the bellowing voice of the chef downstairs in the kitchen, we could hear most of what he was saying including the 'F' words. After sitting for 10 mins we realised that the dish I would be ordering (slow cooked pork belly)was obviously not cooking so would most probably have been microwaved along with the dauphinoise potatoes, and the noise of the chef and music we decided to leave and eat elsewhere. Such a shame that this once lovely restaurant lacked atmosphere, fresh cooked food and respect for customers from the chef!

Difficult for me to review as it's always been quiet when I have been in, but I know it's still popular with locals, and has an "old world (village) charm" and is a comfortable pub. The landlord is welcoming and friendly. I have not eaten there for many years, so can't comment. It does have a limited selection of beers on draft. I live very close and it's always been there but has struggled to stay open over the years. Well worth a visit, it may suit you fine.

Great service and flavourful food. The pavlova was delicious. The only reason I am not giving full marks is there was only one option on the menu for a vegetarian so I didn't have a choice for dinner - the one option was however a creative and very tasty dish.
