  “This place was recommended to us, we were not disappointed. Visually on arrival it was very inviting. The exterior was full of character, lots of beautiful hanging baskets, and the garden continued through the outdoor seating area and around the car park. There is roughly 15 spaces maybe a few more. When we arrived we were escorted to our table. However, we decided to eat outside, as it was a fabulous day. The staff were very friendly. We both had Sunday roasts, I had the lamb, my partner had the pork, extra side of cauliflower cheese. When the food arrived, the plates were nice and hot, the food was presented very well. There was ample food to enjoy which we both did. Additionally, we had deserts, cheesecake which were a delight. The menu choice was good and varied. Furthermore, this place is dog friendly, there is an area outside where your pooches can have some water. If your passing through or have an appreciation for old pubs with lots of character and good home cooked food, then I believe this place is definitely worth a visit.”

  “Honestly this is such a nice pub, gorgeous garden with lovely flowers but the food we got was awful. We ordered some sharing bits from the light bites menu and couldn't believe how bad it was. The dim sum was three pieces of deep fried frozen shop bought bites including a mini samosa which is not Chinese din sum. The cod bites were worse than frozen Iceland fish fingers it was rectangular brown mush battered. The calamari was four tiny pieces of battered squid. The tempura broccoli was not delicate light battered tenderstem broccoli as expected but it was at least edible. We had to send most of it back, the only things we kept were the broccoli, chips and onion rings. The staff were so super kind and helpful about and they did refund us, but there is no excuse for food that bad in such a nice pub.”

  “Met up with friends for lunch at this pub which is roughly halfway between where we both live. The first that hits you is the amazing display of flowers. As well as the flowers in the photos there are just as many at the front & side of the pub - absolutely stunning. The food & service were excellent. As it was a very sunny day we sat outside where we could enjoy the flowers even more.”

  “A beautiful country pub! The flower baskets are phenomenal and adorn the whole outside of the pub, all the outside seating areas and the carpark! We had a Wake there and the hot buffet was amazing and more than enough for our party. The staff were very pleasant and went out of their way to make sure we were attended to.”

  “We wanted to find somewhere we hadn't visited in the area with outside tables, so did a quick search on Google, (other search engines are available). This place popped up with a decent rating so we gave it a go. WOW...where to start, lovely Oxford stone village, including the pub with parking at the rear. Approximately 8-10 tables in a small rear garden which is a proper sun trap, but has parasols. Great food selection, we chose 3 courses each from the Table d'hote menu which were out of this world amazing 😱 Can highly recommend, Haddock fish cakes, the Salmon and the Pie of the day was Chicken, Ham in a a creamy sauce with big chunks of filling every bite, encased in a light pastry, loved it. Drink selection wasn't great, only one ale in draught, but to be honest I had lager because the weather was so hot 🥵 We had Creme Brulé and Profiteroles for dessert, again, both top notch. Portions were exactly right, we felt full, but not stuffed! Very decent pricing for the food, very impressed... Staff were all great, very attentive and polite, a credit to the venue and help make this a highly recommended place to visit. Plenty of indoor tables with tables service.”

  “The Sunday lunch is a lovely outing into beautiful country gardens. The lunch is a generous helping and tasty home style cooked meal. I had the short ribs and it was fall off the bone tender. The meal was bulked up with chicken that was also tasty but I could have done without it as what I wanted was short rib, I would far have preferred another rib. The vegetables and rice were cooked well and the gravy was very tasty. The roasted beetroot was the star of the vegetables. To finish off the meal I had Malva pudding and custard. The staff was super friendly and very attentive. If you are after fine dining this is not it however if you feel like is a really relaxing Sunday lunch that is filling and delicious, and is also great for the whole family from Granny to the babies this very pretty venue makes for a nice outing. Personally if the weather is good I would choose to sit at a table in the garden as the gardens are well maintained and beyound beautiful in a rustic manner. The very well large old trees also provide great shade.”
