| I agree with the last comment. Food orientated but friendly. In fact I was pleasantly suprised as to how good it was. I thought it might be too far removed from being a real pub. We chose it as it was part way along our day's walking route. Nice outdoor seating on a v. sunny day. I asked about the house beer and was told it is St Austell Tinners. They also had Yeovil Ales BST which was also v. good. There was a third choice as well. Both of us enjoyed very nice food from the lighter bites menu. Old_King_Cole - 25 Jul 2011 20:47 |
| Foody sort of a place, but an attractive pub with friendly service and reasonably priced beer - the only pint I had in Dorset for less than 3 quid.I think the Sydling bitter is re-badged Otter. Would visit again if passing. baxterfish - 5 May 2011 20:57 |
| Well, I imagine prices will go up now that the ex GMTV Fiona Phillips and her husband have bought it. I'll wait for others to review it, as I feel she might put me off whatever beer is available. The_Final_Arbiter - 1 Mar 2011 17:24 |
| Agree with the previous comments about this pub being more geared to diners than drinkers. Although it did appear to be popular for food. We sat on the stools in the bar area. Three real ales were on offer - Wadworth 6X, Sydling Bitter and an Amber Ale. I'm not sure who brewed the latter two. Nice location. But it's a shame that many village pubs are too reliant on food these days. blue_scrumpy - 13 Feb 2010 17:07 |
| Been here twice now, in a futile attempt to get lunch. Both times there was plenty of empty seats available but the proprietor informed us that they were 'all booked up'. Real shame as it's a nice pub pub in a lovely location. Actually, it appears to now be a 'gastro pub' so no look out really - the few stools at the bar were the only place you could have a pint, without encrouching on the diners. Very depressing really, given the number of rural pubs closing at the moment. Won't be trying here again. craigb - 7 Feb 2010 19:29 |
