Previously a 5* review but has slipped significantly over the last three years. It is an excellent location but dogged by less than accommodating kitchens. On several occasions over the last year I have gone to the Green Dragon and been disappointed. There have now been too many times that I have tried to buy food whilst the kitchen is open, only to be given excuses by embarrassed bar staff that the kitchen is either too busy, despite only a spattering of tables occupied; or being told that I can only have a light bite or starter if I am willing to buy a whole three course dinner. The staff seem to be fearful of the land lady as they report of being "told off" for allowing a fellow customer to have a selection of starters (bread and olives, whitebait) without ordering full meals. It leaves me feeling that this is driven by greed. Other patrons reported previously being told that "The kitchen has made enough money for today, so we are closing". I live in Wiltshire and can confirm that there are many fantastic village pubs with the warmest of welcomes in neighbouring villages (The Oak in Easterton, the Lamb in Urchfont, the Bell in Cheverell). There is absolutely no need to settle for second best.

This is just what a pub should be. Firstly, the beer is well-kept. And the welcome is always friendly. I've visited a few times over the past few months and it's always the same; a place where locals meet up for a nice pint and a chat, in a warm and friendly atmosphere. If you want loud music and multiple TV screens, this is not the place for you. It's a rarity these days but, as I said above, this is a proper village local pub.

Lovely meal, I had the beef Wellington and wifey had the rack of lamb. Both delicious and cooked to perfection. The staff were great and the atmosphere was cosy. I would recommend them as they also do sandwiches which we had a few weeks back and they were lovely as well.

Former employee posting: Do not give this company your custom. Employers have refused to pay owed tips and outstanding holiday pay to all staff despite consistent reminders, and are now withholding tips and threatening employees. Tips have not been received by staff since January this year. This was a hard working group of employees who do not deserve to be treated this way. For a pub with expensive pricing the profit is not seen by those doing the hard work.
