Red Lion, Cirencester

The most marvelous pub I have ever been to. Fantastic beer and great conversation. The pub consists of a tiny room where all the punters, locals, farmers and visitors sit around and talk, moderated by the pleasant landlord John. No chance of any privacy, so join in and enjoy yourself. Also a beer garden when there is good weather in the summer.

The Falcon Inn, Poulton

Reopened mid 2010 under the new ownership of a talented Aussie chef and his partner. Outstanding restaurant with well kept real ales and excellent wine list. Both owners have decided to live in the village at the premises meaning they are very responsive to visiting customers and local villagers alike. This was the successful recipe of earlier landlords, but the most recent owners had run the poor Falcon into the ground by never being at the pub and installing a series of disinterested and uninspired "managers." While it is still "early doors" the signs are extremely positive. It would be good to see The Falcon back to its best.
