Screamingly posh as you would expect from this part of the country but the village is idyllic, Kelmscott House worth a gander and this pub very good indeed. Full marks for not hiking the prices up - which they could well have done and still attracted a sizeable clientele. The sandwiches and chips are good value for a tenner and while the beer selection - Old Hooky, Wherry - was bog standard, a pint of the former went down well. We visited on a Thames path walk from Radcot, BoehmBawerk - 22 Jul 2018 06:56 |
Given its location, I would imagine most people visiting this pub are either walking the Thames Path or visiting Kelmscott Manor which is a 5 minute walk away. This is a pretty pub that perhaps struggles when it is busy - the kitchen had closed by 1.45pm today despite people continuing to ask for food. Upon entering there is a smallish bar with flagstone floor, wooden beams and 4 or so tables with a larger, plusher restaurant leading off the bar. Outside there is a nice garden which was full with diners - in fact everyone in the place seemed to be eating or trying to order, with the Scotch Egg and Chips seemingly very popular. The Wickwar Cotswold Way was good but not exceptional and Hooky and Tribute were also available. All ales are priced between £3 and £3.20. The cider was Thatcher's Gold. Overall quite pleasant. paul_d102 - 28 Sep 2013 19:29 |
Visited again last week for the first time in a while, quite busy considering it is well out of the way up a single track dead end road. Two Halpenny Brewery Ales and a guest in good condition, tasty looking food, pleasent garden out front to enjoy the sun in, and a funny second hand bookshop to browse if you get bored in an adjacent building. Its about a 10 min drive from Lechlade. Hodge1 - 31 May 2011 01:55 |
My wife and I visited this pub last year while out walking but found it closed for renovation. We finally got to it on our way to the Cotswolds to celebrate our Silver Wedding. A very enjoyable experience with excellent draught ales, friendly service and very good food. My wife had a salad with duck and the portion of duck was generous and well cooked while I had a steak sandwich with my pint. A very good helping of perfect steak in fresh crusty bread. linds53 - 2 Aug 2010 19:27 |
Visited this pub again a week or so ago as I was passing, now open after completion of the extensive flood damage repairs, seems to be much the same, flagstone floor, open fire, and restaurant at the back. Only one real ale on at the time, Tim Taylors Landlord, but it was in good condition, probably only one on because of its 'out of the way' position in a tiny village near Lechlade during a quiet time of year. Food seemed to be more down to earth and less 'gastropubby' than before and menu looked good, home made steak and kidney puddings etc. Lovely gardens out the front again, lets hope business picks up again in the Summer, and when people get to know its open!
