A change to Free House was the only option for this pub and it's now thriving as a result with a talented local young couple who have access to fresh produce reared/grown in the neighbouring countryside which they serve wth a smile. If their planning application goes through, they'll have an art gallery and live music regularly too. Menu is short but varied, fresh, tasty and sure to expand once they've established themselves. Sunday lunches not currently offered but may be a future include. Proud to finally include this in my reviews having lived and worked in the village for years. Watch this one - it's a grower!

The menu is excellent and packed with mouthwatering dishes (as well as 3 or 4 daily specials) and the surroundings are lovely. There is a daily fixed price lunch menu with 2 courses for £15.95 and 3 courses for £19.95. Despite its pedigree it's not starchy or stuffy. Gull eggs are in season so we had that and an Omelette Arnold Bennett to start and the steak & ale pie and Pierre Koffman venison for mains with a couple of side dishes each. For dessert I had the raspberry souffle which just heaven on a plate - if you go make sure you leave room for this signature dessert!

Having eaten here a couple of years ago and reported on good food but disorganised service, I…read morereturned recently for lunch and had a wonderful meal. The restaurant is in the middle of nowhere and you almost rush past it on a nondescript piece of road just north of Highclere Castle, but turning into its ample parking areas, the smart cars there seem to have simply driven a few miles from the Peat Spade, another great inn. This time it wasn't full and the service was far better, but the food and drink weren't just good but exceptional, and extremely reasonable to boot. We started with a glass of house white a Chilean Sauvignon Blanc which was delicious and some very good bread and unsalted butter. I had the mussels and clams in a white wine broth which come daily up from Cornwall, and I can declare that they were the best I have ever tasted. The mussels were so fat and full that the dish could have made a meal on its own, while the clams, as ever, added a subtly the taste of the sea. The onion-rich broth was perfect and almost got finished! We then had the fish and chips, which came perfectly presented and was exceptionally delicious. One could perhaps quibble that twice or thrice cooked chips would have been even better, but these were crispy outside and fluffy inside, with a small dish of mushy peas to underline the fact that the dish was supposed to be authentic and not ersatz Belgian. Liver and bacon was pink and perfect, and could hardly have been bettered. A lemon posset followed, which was a good way of cleansing the palate after such a fine meal. I can't recommend The Yew Tree highly enough for lunch, especially with a bill (without service) of only £42 for two. There is wi-fi in the bar.

They have an open fire inside and a very traditional feeling environment. The food is fab too.

This little pub is exactly what i love about the UK countryside. The pub has been around since the 1700's. the building has changed over the years but has been about the same for the past 100 years i believe. So needless to say i love the setting, warm and cozy feeling you know your in the right place when you walk in. The service we received was wonderful from all of the staff. The food was perfect! i got a traditional British meal of sausage, potatoes and gravy and just fell in love! The beer selection is about the same as any other pub in the UK. The prices were very fair and the other patrons seemed to be happy with all of their food and service as well. All in all i can't say enough about how much i enjoyed dining here!

Therefore there is no one hovering around for the table. Definitely recommend this place.
