    2 words sum up the Yew Tree - substance & quality. The prices are reasonable with the a la carte…read morestarters ranging from £7 to £11 and the mains from £14-20. 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.

    One item I really wanted to try while in England was Yorkshire Pudding. There is something about…read morethe way it looks, that is so attractive to me... Luckily for me, our extended family took us to a spot with a great selection of dishes with Yorkshire Pudding! It is a large building, surrounded by beautiful greenery. It is not only a restaurant, but also an inn as well. You and your dog(s) can stay here, as it is a dog-friendly inn. At the entrance of the restaurant, they had this adorable guestbook for dogs! And they even had some dog treats right there for your (or anyone else's) dog! We ordered a Selection of Home Baked Breads with mixed butter. Fancy, fluffy, and delicious! For appetizer, we got Cajun Whitebait, and I got Faccombe Fried Partridge. Simple, comfy food that is elevated and tasty! Most if the dinner dishes came with loads of sides, and oh yeah, Yorkshire Pudding! We all got something a bit different, and they all looked amazing! We had Roast Hampshire Pork Loin. It a stunning Yorkshire Pudding, like a proud crown! And the plate was huge! Mountain of pork loin, a nice amount of potatoes and veggies, pork crackling...Everything on this plate was amazing! It was a big feast, and I was quite full. But did I stop there? No! We all ordered desserts. We had Saffron & Star Anise Poached Pear, White Chocolate Mousse, Sticky Toffee Pudding, and The Jack Russel Affogato. The poached pear was the prettiest, while affogato was the most fun dessert. All of them were superb! The service was very nice and friendly, we were well taken care of. We had a fun dinner with lovely company. It is always great to have delicious food with friends and family you love!

    This is the must beautiful inn ever. We were in between London and Bath with a stop by Stonehenge…read morebefore we made it to Bath. We stayed here for the night. OMG the room we stayed in was beautiful ( Great Dane ) the room and view was unbelievable. Staff was friendly and helpful. Dinner was very tasty. I would stay here again if I was in the area. Unfortunately we will probably never be in the area again. We are from USA.
