If you eat in the bar area you go to the bartender order your drink of choice and meal. Hint...if you only feel like a half portion of fish and chips you can order a half order and for me it's a perfect portion of food. They do have a bar menu too if you don't want fish and chips. But really who goes to a pub in England and not order fish and chips. This is the place to do so. They do have a restaurant but I believe you need a reservation for that. Worth every bit for a nice meal out and I believe that the menu is a bit different.

Oooh this pub is looovely, especially on sunny days when you can sit outside in their garden…read more They seem to cater to both locals (lots of old folks) and people like us who were driving though. The staff were all very welcoming, and we were all really impressed with the friendly, efficient service. The menu was full of English comfort foods...and they executed everything beautifully. Just look at my photos to get an idea...I tried the goats cheese and caramelised onion strudel, which came balanced on potatoes and perfect ratatouille. If you ever find yourself in this part of the country, it is definitely worth popping in here for some lunch! *Pro tip: It sounded like they get very booked up in the evening, so ring ahead to ensure you get a table!!

It was a lucky dip that ended in a wonderful meal and a very nice experience thanks to the pub owners. We rocked up around 4pm and were told by a staff member in the parking lot, who kindly offered to take our photo, that they were probably out of roast being it was so late in the day but he would speak to the chef. 20 mins later we had a couple of beverages at a nice table in the lounge overlooking the water and a delicious beef roast dinner with root vegetables, cauliflower cheese, Yorkshire puddings and gravy. We cleaned our plates and followed lunch up with a sweet and tasty slice of homemade carrot cake. It was absolutely fantastic. The staff were ever so friendly and really looked after us. What a great little find and we are so pleased to have stumbled upon it! Now, hours and a couple sofa snoozes later, we are still stuffed!

Starters goat cheese for me and garlic prawns for my coworker. He had rump of lamb, i had wild trout. Came with platters of fries, potatoes au gratin and steamed veg. Mixed desserts 3 minis - tasty Service friendly and efficent. Highly recommended.

The current management has boldly expanded the menu, opened for breakfast, provided access to its kitchen garden and detailed the provenance of all of its staple ingredients. Oh, that more places were like this. Whilst there are two car parks, they barely accommodate the number of drivers who patronise the establishment. The one at the front is backed by an attractive decked eating area. My most recent visit was for a light lunch with a colleague, so we each had a pint of Marston's Burton Bitter, and we had a crab and prawn sandwich and a Parma ham, and mozzarella sandwich, sharing a bow of chips between us. This light lunch was delicious, the service was good and the bill, including a large tomato juice, was £26.60. A firm favourite and we'll be back again.

The menu is your standard pub favourites and nothing different from many local bistro pubs. But all in all the food was well seasoned, well prepared and decent prices. The service was jolly and quite good. I can't comment on the pub section as I have yet to try it, but it looked like your usual country pub. I would recommend it for a nice family pub meal and have no qualms with the venue. I gave it overall 3 stars as it didn't blow me away and was very similar to all bistro pubs all over the the UK.

The fact that many people are sitting in coats didn't inspire staff to light the fires. Staff chatting behind the bar to each other instead of serving. No sandwiches on because delivery's late so everything's frozen! Didn't like bar staff putting lemon in drinks with his fingers. It just wasn't very good.

I didn't see a fireplace nor did I feel one. It was quite drafty & chilly inside. Service was slow but friendly & we were glad for it. Menu is small but very nice selection. We had 3 starters, 5 mains, 2 puddings, 2 veg bowls, a coke & a bottle of wine all for under £92. Everything came out at once, hot, & lovely. The beetroot is wrapped & deep fried, quite goat cheesy said my friends. Salmon cooked perfect. Seabass was a few fillets, all with crunchy skins but again, cooked perfect. I asked for a med-well ribeye which came out well done. No matter. It was a nice cut, tender, nicely seasoned. The peppercorn sauce I asked for on the side & it was wonderful. It was more of a gravy then sauce & I enjoyed it. Both deserts were wonderful. The cheesecake our fave. Couldn't taste the mulled wine, which was fine by us. The crust was solid & broke away nicely with a fork & no effort. The main road, depending on direction you're coming from, is very narrow & doesn't allow for 2 cars to pass easily. There are turnouts & many blindspots & corners due to design & landscaping. Will definitely return on my next visit to England.

It was delicious. Warm fresh scone served with yummy cream and jam. I also ordered the chocolate cake tea with the scone and it was surprisingly good. Had some chocolate flavor and tasted good with milk. Hubby ordered Mac and cheese and it was served piping hot with a slice of garlic bread. Pretty good too! Kiddo ordered hot chocolate with marshmallows and a chocolate cake. The cake itself was soft and moist and not overly sweet. Went well with the tea and hot chocolate. The hot chocolate seemed standard and she seemed to like it. The place is not overly pricey for a touristy place. Service was also good and friendly.

The jam and cream were significantly superior to others I've had. There was also a wide selection of tea and some really funky and interesting ones as well! If I travel to the Cotswold again, I will surely be visiting Lucy's tearoom. The vibe was also cozy and welcoming. The service was a little slower but probably because we were seated on the second floor.
