user reviews of the Ostrich Inn, Newland
please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
I am amazed that it is over six years since anybody reviewed this delightful, unspoilt pub in a very picturesque Dean Forest village. These days the accent is on food and my main gripe that it does not serve bar meals. Not everybody has the time, or the money, or in my case, the appetite for a full meal morning, noon and night. Some gastro pubs treat customers who choose not to dine like lepers, but fortunately, this was certainly not the case at the Ostrich. There was an interesting choice of five real ales when I visited recently – Doombar, Wye Valley Butty Bach, Otter Bitter, the RCH brewery's Pitchfork and the locally brewed 5.1% abv Abbey from the Kingstone Brewery in Tintern. I opted for a pint of the latter which was superb. The Ostrich will certainly be on the itinerary for my next visit to the Dean Forest. steve2905 - 21 Jun 2014 04:32 |
| What a great place. Welcoming staff, good beer with plenty of choice. Delicious food with an excellent variety of vegetarian choices. Visited with a party of six just after Christmas. Nothing was too much trouble. A splendid country pub. purplegoffer - 25 Jan 2008 00:09 |
| Beautiful pub in lovely surroundings as previously described. We had a fabulous (but pricey) meal last weekend with very attentive service. Unfortunately I didn't get to try one of the 5 or so beers on hand pull as I drew the short straw and was driving. (Local police very hot on car related crime so not even worth having one!) Next time will cycle and try out beers, hmm can't wait... Phantom_Raspberry - 12 Dec 2006 12:54 |
| The village of Newland is beautiful, only spoilt by the cars blocking the village outside the pub. It's a traditional real ale pub that has become more of a restaurant. It is frequented by walkers and tourists. It does get packed (food only side is always empty though) and the garden is a no-go area. anonymous - 10 Dec 2005 15:04 |
