Cotswold type country pub with uneven stone floor. More a hotel and restaurant than a pub, but ok. 2 hand pumps but only 1 ale on. Hooky £3.50 ok. rpf1955 - 27 Feb 2014 17:55 |
I missed out in calling in at The Lamb last time I was on Burford, SO glad that I walked off the high street this time. The staff were very accommodating and helpful, really welcoming. The gardens were just gorgeous and very peaceful after being on the busy main road. Once the summer rain started it was nice to be in the lovely lounge (which would be snug and cosy with the fires roaring in the winter!) Seasonal specials menu was great and my asparagus with hollandaise and truffle oil scrummy. A cafetiere of some seriously nice coffee, too. Can't wait to go back. Should imagine staying there is a relaxing and restful treat, I hope to soon. Jotrott - 20 Jun 2013 21:26 |
To the Lamb on Saturday at about 5.30 pm. We had already had a bottle each of the excellent Old Hooky in my host�s garden nearby, so needed no second bidding to continue with it on draft once in the Lamb. It was pleasant and up to standard, although on balance I preferred the slightly more robust quality of the bottled brew. The d�cor was as already described here, and none the worse for that. What I did appreciate was that there was no requirement to pay for the drinks until one was going. The cost of the beer was not cheap at- I think- �3.15 a pint, but if you are used to Chilterns Home Counties prices, this is not excessive. I did not eat there, but the menu looked good if not wide-ranging. I�m told the Sunday roasts are first class and not unduly expensive. But beware: the good news is that the breakfasts are excellent too and you can have as much as you want from the wide-ranging buffet, but a price- �20 a head. Me thinks I�ll sit that one out. pubsampler - 26 Sep 2010 08:52 |
Lovely interior with what looks like original floor. Think this is 15th century. Roaring real fire and would love to sample some cider in the garden one day. Didn't notice a giant hike in price of the ale and was offered in a jug or glass, which is always nice to see. 2 staff on duty, one from Eastern Europe. Both helpful though. English a one little too helpful even. Bit over zealous. Seems to be frequented by 2 kinds of clientele. Caring, elderly gentlefolk & Tim "nice but dim" characters, who struggle to walk 2 yards to the bar to place an order and would rather wait for one of the aforementioned staff to pass by). Room for improvement but thumbs up from me (NB told the decoration in the ladies consists of alarming black wallpaper with yellow birds, akin to a scene from The Birds. The worse type of birds too) johnwarkstache - 6 Jan 2009 15:54 |
pretentious eating house. probably the most over-priced beer outside London. bar staff almost entirely foreign & therfore minimum wage earners probably. the owners/management are taking the p*ss. alehouses - 28 Nov 2007 11:35 |
