Enjoyed a tasty brunch with friends at their Gloucester Quays, nestled amongst the Gloucester…read morehistoric docks. This is definitely worth a visit on a nice Saturday morning as there is a outdoor market with 10-15 stalls (food & crafts). I had a cappuccino and a vegetarian platter. The capuchin was tasty, and didn't last through the meal. The veggie platter was interesting, 2 poached eggs on 2 pieces of toast, one with a hummus spread topped with sautéed mushrooms and one with a guacamole spread and roasted tomatoes. I also added the crispy potato (singular as you only get one ), it reminded me of hash browns from the states. And I added the baked beans, which was served in a mini iron skillet. The meal overall was quite tasty, but would've liked a bit more guacamole and hummus and a bit less toast; as the spreads were on the thin end of the spectrum. Bill's looked to be a southwestern American themed restaurant, I'd have to go back and check out their evening menu to confirm. As far as brunch goes, it's solid but not necessarily a standout;if give it a 3.5 if possible. Given the attentive and friendly service a 4.0 is fair.

The food is good, and good value, and is nicely complemented by the Samuel Smith's beer list -- the Oatmeal Stout was a nice companion on a cold January day. Service is friendly and fairly attentive. All told, a good place for a lunch and drinks, and definitely somewhere I'll return to next time I'm in Gloucester.

The waitresses were all sweet and helpful, the ambiance was calm and homey, and the food was exceptional.

My fiancée had the steak pie, and was thoroughly pleased. Overall, one of the best places to eat.

This one is popular with the local travellers but they do tend to let the children run riot. More than once I've seen a little one nearly end up with a hot dinner over themselves after colliding with someone so do be careful. Outside seating is available and there is plenty of parking.

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 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.

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!

A large and varied menu sets the taste buds a-tingling in anticipation. We ordered a fish platter to share and goats cheese beignets followed by a bowl of mussels, pie of the day (beef in ale with mushrooms) and fish & chips twice (one kids size). 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!
