Nice Brakspear pub perfect for a stopover on the Ridgeway Walk. The new landlords are lovely and welcoming. The beer garden is nice and the food pretty good too. I would encourage walkers/local residents to go and visit this cute little place regularly to stop it becoming another casualty to the housing development phenomenon. Use it or lose it!

was charged �8.90 for one pint of oxford gold and one orange juice plus soda water on saturday 9 apr. 2011, 2:10pm-ish. the young lady at the bar said orange juice and soda water were charged separately and that made �5.40 for the less than a pint of the mixture.

Visited on 23rd May 09. It's a lovely pub, under new management (they'd been there less than a week when I visited). Friendly service, good range of beers and spirits. The food was fantastic - lovely local ingredients, decent portions and good value for money.
I just wish I lived locally so I could go back often, but it's a bit of a hike from London. This place deserves to do really well.

Just back from visiting this pub. Beer remains as good as ever, though the new owners (in the last few weeks I understand) have made it into a more restaurant style, with most tables laid out for food during mealtimes. The food and service is excellent, though this does leave the area around the bar for those who just want to drink while others eat.

Re-visited again last Sunday. Excellent, friendly service. Very extensive menu of freshly prepared food. (The 3 course �19 Sunday lunch menu is superb value!)
Well kept Brakspear's, cosy modern/traditional combination, with welcoming fire, and 6-8 good wines by the glass too.
Booking essential for Sunday lunch, but well worth it!
