My wife and I went here while looking for somewhere local to have lunch. The name initially caught…read moreour interest so we thought we'd give it a go. We were incredibly pleased with how lovely the place is. Great outdoor dining area, and incredibly cosy inside. The staff were incredibly courteous, and the food was just unbelievably good. I'll admit, when I first ordered, I did think that they were a little expensive. However, it turns out that was because I was expecting the food to be of a lower standard. What they brought out to us was worth every penny. This is a fantastic little place, a hidden gem. Worth driving over an hour to go to, seriously.

What a great little pub in Arlingham! My mum-in-law told me about this pub, saying that they food…read morewas top-notch. We decided to come by for lunch one day. It's a traditional English pub with plenty of seating and a good assortment of locally-sourced food options. When I asked about my gluten allergy, they did everything possible to make sure my meal didn't contain gluten. They even had gluten-free bread! All the food was delightful, and the staff were amazing. Even the owner of the pub waited on us and chatted with us for a bit. Historically, this pub has been around for hundreds of years. Recently, the pub faced closure, but the community was able to raise the money to keep the pub from closing. Thousands of pounds raised in 48 hours! Impressive. Now the pub is owned by the village, and is open to the public. If you're in the area, definitely drop by for some delightful food, drink and friendly service.

And how blessed am I to be able to class this utter treat as my old local! It's as homely a place as ever you'd find and the beer is twice as nice. The decor speaks of times gone by, and yet the olde days meet the new, welcoming in the latest generation of real ale drinkers who sup on their Uley bitter, like a duck takes to water. And no, in real ale country we don't use sparklers. Pints are filled to the top, if you don't mind, none of that half-a-pint-o-head business in here! Yes, in this CAMRA awarded pub you can expect to find the finest brews. The antiquated sit comfortably next to the whipper snappers and drink harmoniously until close, enjoying the lamp heated sheltered garden and cosy interior. Under the steady headship of Steve I don't think I've ever spent a night in here unsatisfied with the ambience, booze and company - this place is the only place to go in Dursley town.

This place features in CAMRAs Good Beer and Cider Guides - with more than 5 real ales on tap and a choice of 23 ciders (oh, and about 8 excellent wines . . . . and several top notch whiskys . . . . need I say more). The restaurant matches the booze very well, serving a solid and reliable range of English standards done well. For example,there was a Perry Fish Pie, made with pear cider (or Perry), thick cut gammon with a home-made tomato pickle and pickalilli, new potatoes and a chunky salad, there was also a lovely home-made tomato and basil soup and delightfully large and succulent - yet crisp - salmon fishcakes with a potato and parsley mash. We were delighted and impressed with both the service and the food.

When we visited we thought we would grab some traditional pub lunch as we had 1,5hrs to kill. Appearances can be very deceiving and this is a true case. The food is presented in a way that reminds you of a more of a upper class restaurant and not a pub in the country. The food is beautifully presented and the quality is also spectacular. The steak of my wife was cooked to perfection, juicy and tasty and my ribs were so succulent and tender. The ribs were so well cooked that the meat just fell of the bones. Everything from the salad to the French fries was fantastic. Yes you pay a little more than in a normal pub but the quality and food is just outstanding. It seems in a very nice location - offers parking and also outside facilities.

Added bonus is they have a open log fire too - a real winner in my book!

There is a restaurant and bar, with plenty of outdoor seating for people to enjoy when the weather is fine. By the amount of people that were here, we could tell that this is a very popular destination. There are two parts to the restaurant and bar. Both contain seating for dining and drinking, though breakfast was on the "bar" side. For dinner, we were seated in a beautiful curved and windowed dining area with plenty of sunshine and a beautiful view outdoors. Our service was attentive and friendly. For dinner, my husband had the sirloin steak. He said that it was delicious and tender. He really enjoyed the accompanying peppercorn sauce. I had the barbecued turkey. It had a tasty char on it, and it was very delicious with its umami and slightly sweet barbecue flavor. Potatoes, chips, and salads were sides. We were both full from our generous meals, but it's almost impossible to forgo a delicious dessert! I had spotted dick, which was warm, sweetly moist, and subtly spiced. My husband had sticky pudding with ice cream. Both desserts hit the spot! Breakfast is a combination of continental and menu items. We enjoyed our fresh ojs, coffees, and he his Full English while I relished avocado toast with poached eggs. Accommodations are behind the restaurant and pub. It's a two-story cozy building, with four rooms downstairs. We did not go upstairs, but there are rooms above, as well. Our room was very comfortable, with all the amenities that we would need. Our room, Midnight Court, has French doors that lead out into a patio with seating and a garden beyond. There is a farm store that sells coffees, teas, tasty treats, and a variety of unique gifts, souvenirs, as well as groceries. There is outdoor seating here, too. Parking is limited to overnighting guests, located between the restaurant and the accommodations. We could see additional parking located across the street for drop-ins. We felt very fortunate to find the Green Dragon Inn. It ticked off all of the boxes for these two American travelers looking for a quintessential inn stay.
