| We used to drink here back in the early 80's Went back spring 2012 and it still feels the same. Great choice of really good beer and the food we had was excellent. Staff very friendly and they made Rosie, our dog, especially welcome. Tancred - 2 Jan 2013 12:41 |
| Tidy little pub in pretty village, one of Butcombe's smallest establishments. Unlike another Butcombe pub (Queen Victoria Priddy) this one is sparkling clean and a very pleasant place to be. Butcombe Bitter and Gold both fine and a group of us ate lunch. Food very pretty on the plate and nice enough, pub grub but prettified on square plates with astonishingly tiny helpings. Portion control is one thing, this is a tad over the top. I have given more liver and bacon to the dog. I left hungry. Vegetables in short supply, extra came but most people had finished. Service otherwise pleasant enough. Food portions apart, I would be very happy if this were my local. The small portions might suit some people. One can see the ploy, small main dishes allows an "upsell" on the sweets. Our group did not bother. We will not hurry back to eat. How do they find lambs with such small shanks? pheon - 29 Sep 2011 18:06 |
| Gave this another go the other day and was glad I did. Food on this time; good quality and value. Butcombe Gold on good form. Staff and locals friendly. Agree with TWG that they could make more of the stillage behind the bar but at the end of the day it's a Butcombe pub and they're bound to major on that. mousefan - 16 Jun 2011 21:42 |
| Another pub on an opportunistic little foray into this part of Somerset en route from/to some old haunts. The Queens Arms should be commended first and foremost for being open on a quiet Sunday afternoon - few deign to even consider it given the slow trade, but they obviously feel it's enough to soldier on. A few stragglers were sat at the bar, seemingly enjoying their extended session. Food clearly had been a big draw earlier - if only because the usual left-over roast spuds from Sunday lunchtime did not appear as a bar snack, owing to them all having been consumed already. Oh well, nice thought. Service was reasonable; a couple of halves of rather excellent Butcombe Gold were supped. We concurred that the standard was high and can only trust this is the norm. The only slight disappointment was not what was on - 3 perfectly good cask ales - but what wasn't; there was a large stillage behind the bar with a good 20 barrels racked, yet NONE were in use! I can only assume this was once a really dedicated beer house and management has decided to withdraw (which would be a crying shame), or perhaps it's only ever used for festivals etc. Either way, this does seem a cruel reminder of how much better this pub could be ale-wise - albeit that as it is it is performing well enough. Given the quietness of the place, it was hard to gauge it for atmos - the interior was quite cosy with an L-shaped bar and various seating areas for diners or drinkers. I would estimate this doubles as a decent restaurant and local for villagers in busier times, and I hope the community make best use of it as a hub. A worthy stop-off. TWG - 9 Jun 2011 13:29 |
| Wanted to have lunch here but when I asked to start a tab the barmaid looked at me as if I had sprouted an extra head and replied "We're not doing food today! We've got the morris men in!" Oh well. Had a pint anyway and very good it was. This was my first visit and despite the food knock-back, would give it another go as it looks like a lovely little pub. mousefan - 28 May 2011 21:22 |
