About The Flemish Weaver
On 63 High St in Corsham, The Flemish Weaver is a pub built around cask ales, with three to four guest lines changing per barrel alongside its own house Flemish Ale. A specials board rotates with locally sourced, seasonal ingredients, including a choice of pies of the day. Seating runs to booths and nooks around an open bar area, and card games are on hand for guests waiting on a table. Cider, lager, wine, and a gin, rum, and malt whiskey range fill out the bar. Dogs are welcome throughout, and a courtyard garden opens out back where a peacock sometimes wanders through. Parking sits on the high street outside, with no time limit on Sundays. Reservations are recommended, particularly for Sunday visits.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the food, with several calling out the pies of the day, steak, and a specials board built around locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. Sausage and mash and hot, freshly cooked plates draw repeat praise, and portions are frequently described as generous for the price. Close behind is the drink selection: the house Flemish ale gets called properly tasty, and cask ales are praised as well kept, though one visitor found a favored guest ale sold out and switched to the house brew instead. The pub itself, with its booths, nooks and old world character, along with dog friendly service and peacocks in the courtyard, comes up repeatedly as part of the draw. Staff are consistently described as friendly and welcoming. A couple of reviewers mention a wait for food, offset by card games provided by the pub, and one notes exposed foam on some of the seating needing attention.

“I only dropped in for a beer. They had a good range of cask ales. I had Stonehenge's Danish Dynamite. It never disappoints. It was kept well. The pub is lovely, with loads of little booths and nooks and cranies. Definitely my kind of place. I spoke to some regulars and they said that the food was also really good. It smelt and looked amazing.”

“Quirky pub in centre of Corsham. Friendly staff and good choice of real ales and lagers on tap. Food is simple but value for the money. Worth a try. Lots of locals use it so must be good.”

“Proper pub with very tasty house (Flemish) ale. Managed to get one pint of Independence by Bristol Brewery but sold o when I went back for a second pint, hence the purchase of the house ale 🍻 Can’t rate food as didn’t try any.”

“What a lovely place. Service excellent. Menu varied for all tastes. Food hot and freshly cooked. Only criticism is the seating requires attention exposed foam on seats. Still a lovely place and would definitely eat there again.”

“Absolute gem of a pub. Staff and owner really lovely and welcoming. Food was very good, and for the price portions were excellent (much bigger than expected!) and quality was great. Drinks, very reasonably priced. And the aesthetics of the pub itself was very warm, cozy and a proper old style pub. Will definitely be back if we come to Corsham again”

Highlights
“Here at The Flemish you will always find a good pint of ale from local breweries, including our own “Flemish Ale”. We always have three to four guest ales on the pumps as well, changing per barrel. We also offer a large and carefully sourced selection of cider, lager and wine and of course a large gin, rum and malt whiskey range too. Our pub is laid out with cosy corners, private booths but with an open sociable bar area. The Courtyard garden is open, a small private sun trap with the occasional Peacock wandering around.”
