A lovely old pub by the stream in the picturesque downland village of Ecchinswell. It's the nearest pub to Watership Down. The pub had lost its way in recent years owing to regular changes in ownership, but the latest owners seem to be getting things back on track. There were 3 real ales on tap last weekend, all from local breweries. I had the Punter from the Upham brewery, but there was also the Two Cocks 1643 Viscount - a golden ale, and Dr Hexter's Healer from the West Berkshire brewery. The Punter was just a little flat unfortunately. There was a nice atmosphere in the low-ceilinged public bar, and I hear the food is good pub grub at about £10 for a main course. I recommend trying the Royal Oak to anyone who finds themselves in the area. Number11 - 23 Apr 2014 18:43 |
