I stopped by Stanman's Kitchen for a cuppa and a snack…read more Little did I realise what a treat I was in for until my cuppa arrived. The Englilsh Breakfast tea (which lets face it is usually standard fare and a little bland and ordinary), turned out to be a Tea Pigs brew. I could tell it was different by the bio degradble tea bag and the actual leaves in the bag. The lady who served me commented on the cream in the milk as it was organic. Now the combination of the milk and the wonderful tea made for a fantastic cuppa. It truly was very tasty and not like any other English Breakfast brew I have ever had. I accompanied my tea with a handmade butter flapjack which melted in my mouth. I was so pleased I purchased a larger flapjack and a packet of tea bags to take home. Sadly they had none of the English brew left but kindly gave me the equivalent number from a fresh catering pack and parcelled it up for me to ensure they got home as fresh as they had come out of the packet. The shop is full of wonderful organic and delciatessen delights and is a real gem in a street full of dowdy shops. I throughly enjoyed my visit and I urge anyone visiting Gloucester to try them.

In a world where £5 starts to be the standard for a good lunch to walk away with a toastie and a drink for a pound less and feel like you robbed the place is refreshing. Plus i have to love the "proper" pricing of the extras. Penguins at 2 for 50p is as it should be. Toast is pretty tucked away as it stands, on the other side of the docks, but if your going for a stroll its well worth a stop and who knows, as the docks grow time will tell if Toast doesn't become the central place for a toasty snack.

It is a typical English greasy spoon, a bit small, but kept spotless and the food served is always hot tasty and plentiful for amazingly good value. They also serve other foods mostly with chips which are well cooked, but vegetarians might struggle.

Parking bays are outside, but you will be lucky to get one however there are enough side streets nearby.

The cellar bar is atmospheric and offers something a bit different to most city centre bars. There are regularly changing ales on offer and the staff are quite knowledgeable about those too.

Lots of snooks - some with armchairs, all with open fires make this a great place for chilling out with friends, or someone special. The whole building is made of solid wood - it really gives the idea of a quality place. The staff are pretty friendly and welcoming, and tables are cleared quickly. The garden is MASSIVE! and again, all solid wood furniture and decking - it really looks like a quality place. There are no heaters in the garden, but in the summer, it will be a complete sun trap and I think it will be busy! The toilets are up two flights of stairs, so don't leave it until you're desperate!!! This is a Samuel Smiths pub, and as such, don't expect to get anything that is branded in this pub - but actually, it's nice to have a change and Samuel Smiths' cider is lovely..!! I'm going back soon for food, so I'll report back again after that!!

The atmosphere is relaxed and there is a good selection of drinks, including 4 real ales. Food is reasonable priced and above average. Not having any railings to lock up push bikes was my only bug-bear, until on our recent night out the staff serving us were slagging off northerners (Liverpudlians and Brummies in particular) and mimicking northern accents. As I am northern and have recently recommended this pub to Scottish friends I feel very let down, but perhaps as previous reviewer suggests it depends who is on duty. For this I have knocked off a couple of stars.

We had reserved a table for five on the day and when we arrived we were taken to the nicest possible table, with a window overlooking the river and with ample space. The pub has both indoor and outdoor seating and a nice bar. The staff were all very friendly and the same bar staff simultaneously run the famous "Symonds Yat Hand Ferry" just outside the restaurant. It's a pretty interesting thing to see, as people come to the bar requesting to get to the other side of the river and a barman will literally come out from behind the bar, head off outside and take them (hand pulling a rope) over to the other side of the river! The beer selection here is pretty extensive with lots of local beers such as Wye Valley Brewery and Ledbury. My brother in law and I sampled 5 or 6 different ones over lunch and were impressed. The food here was also excellent with a nice variety of different items to chose from, from traditional English pub fare to Indian dishes. I went with the Haddock and Chips which was fried to a golden crisp and nothing short of delicious. The rest of my family had similarly good food and everyone was left satisfied! Overall the Saracens Head was fabulous and this is a magnificent and picturesque place to visit in general if you're ever in the Wye Valley/ Symonds Yat/ Herefordshire area, with lots of hiking, river cruises and just admiring of nature to do in the area; can't wait to return!

The food was fantastic but beware the large portions if you suffer with a small stomach! Luckily none of us did and all the food was enjoyed immensely along with pints of Wye Valley pale ale, an interesting brew called Butty Bach and Symonds cider. The landlord was a very pleasant chap who kindly gave us a lift back to collect our car as we couldn't stomach the walk back up to Christchurch. Pay them a visit, enjoy their beer and food and write an honest review as they seem to have suffered from one or two of those 'anti-Trip' advisor fiends! Well done Saracens Head and thanks!
