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.

One of the absolutely best pubs (and restaurants) in Britain. As a pub fanatic, I've visited…read morehundreds of watering holes through the years, and the food has never, and I mean never, been this good. I've eaten at Michelin star restaurants that haven't had steak as tender and succulent as what we had here. The ambiance was romantic, quirky, and quiet, perfect for a night out. We started with a potato and leek soup and the Welsh rarebit. The soup was good, not exceptional, but good, and the rarebit was tasty. We continued with the special, which was a hanging skewer with melted garlic butter, corn on the cob, and chips. I can honestly say that I have never had such a delicious, perfectly cooked and seasoned beef skewer outside of Greece or Spain. It was an absolute experience simply eating it. One of those rare dishes that makes you pause and close your eyes at the sheer pleasure of the perfect taste. I never wanted it to end. My husband had the same experience with his assorted beef platter. The medallions were so tender you understand what the phrase "melt in your mouth" means. I only wish we had room for dessert, as the dessert menu looked utterly luscious. But we will be back, and soon. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough.

Without any hesitation I'll state that I had the best burger of my life here, the Bull Burger! A…read moresubstantial burger in itself accompanied with fries. What stood out most was the quality of the beef, the most tender, succulent cut of ground meat you can ever hope for, and grilled to perfection. I don't get overly excited about burgers, but this was the apex and I thought I had died and gone to burger heaven. All this is a very charming, tasteful pub in the Cotswolds countryside. Comfortable, cozy and oh so pleasant. We came for lunch just after noon at seated in the restaurant. We were given a choice of that or the pub/bar section. I washed it down with a pint of Cotswold Pale Ale... a great choice with the lunch. Service was professional, friendly and fun. They were very engaged and thoughtful and I highly recommend going out of your way to visit and enjoy this establishment.

Sounding more like a pub than a restaurant, it was a pleasant surprise that it felt fairly high-dining, though the pub atmosphere definitely was not lost. There are a number of rooms in the restaurant, so some of those lovely cozy corners you can only find in traditional pubs! We were seated on a large table in a corner and handed our menus and wine list. I have to say, I wasn't involved in the wine ordering (predominantly because I don't really know about it!) but a bottle of red and a bottle of white soon found their way to the table. The white was very tasty - but the large spider attached to the bottom, thanks to it coming from the cellar, did give me a bit of a fright! It took a while round the table for everyone to decide but we eventually got there. Some hummus, olives and bread were ordered as appetisers then our mains. Unfortunately we started to experience a few service delays around this point and were more than hungry when the food did eventually arrive! The bread was especially tasty however, warm, and I'd recommend dipping this into the oil with the olives. Very garlicky! I decided to have the lamb for main, served with a herb crust and fondant potato. The lamb itself was delicious, very soft and moist, but the herb crust was a real let down for my taste. It was very soft and lacking in any punchy flavours, so the majority was left to one side. Although it came with a good helping of gravy, I think the plate could have been improved with a creamier potato side rather than the fondant, which felt very heavy. A dauphinoise would be my suggestion! The other dishes around the table looked very good, especially the steak, which you choose your sides and sauce for. We had an excellent evening as a group but don't think this ultimately came down to the restaurant. I would recommend if you're in the area, but don't go out of your way to visit. And avoid any herb crusts...

When we visited with a an elderly wheelchair bound relative, the staff rearranged the tables so that she could be easily manoeuvred through the restaurant. Of all the restaurants we have visited with her, The Fisherman was easily the most cooperative and considerate. The building is well presented, and the staff are polite and helpful.
