The worst pub in the Cotswolds. After a very busy year we decided to treat the family to a…read moreonce-in-a-lifetime five course Christmas lunch at The Horse and Radish. We arrived to a freezing cold pub to find our table wasn't set. An hour after arrival, having gone to the bar for drinks because we weren't allocated a waiter, the second course was plonked on our table. It was a sliver of smoked salmon and an overdone egg. Eventually cutlery arrived. The main course - a school dinner style plate with no garnishes arrived eventually followed by a tablespoon or so of pudding. The fifth course never arrived. The waiter refused to speak to us and so of course coffees were not even a possibility. One table got up and left and the young couple next to us were absolutely distraught at the cost for what this turned out to be. I have requested a partial refund as they obviously didn't deliver what was advertised and have been refused. I had heard that this place had gone badly down hill - and our last visit before Christmas rang some alarm bells - but to have provided such an appalling service on Christmas should fill the owners with shame. It seems it hasn't. Please avoid.

What a disappointing experience in frankie and benny's. I usually love going here and the food is…read morealways good but last night was obviously a different story. We walked in to the restaurant to find it was practically busy (granted it was a Saturday night). Normally when you walk into frankie and bennys your greated in a positive manner but last night we got far from that. After asking for a table for two the lady confusingly looked around and without any type of dialogue, or smile, she just walked off. We assumed to just follow her then when we got to the table she just walked off with no dialogue, didn't offer us anything which made it very impersonal. For our starters we had mozzarella sticks which were lacking any cheese at all. And the calamari was too crispy and tasteless. We had a 15" Italian hot pizza for a main and chicken and mushroom pasta. The pizza was undercooked. Like really undercooked. At first glance it looked like a great pizza but after one bite all you could taste was the soft uncocked dough which was still mouldable. The pizza fell apart and I struggled to eat any of it. We were told they did have a brand new kitchen in which could explain the change in the usual good food. But overall the meal and experience was lacking satisfaction and we came away very disappointed and wished we ate somewhere else. Thankyou ZP.

You know what you're getting into with F&B, I like it despite the sometimes confusing menu but when…read morei was looking for dinner on my own I thought why not? Well I'm sorry to say I wasn't impressed. The place was not busy, there seemed to be 3 serving staff on plus a drinks waiter. None acknowledge me when I walked in and after a good 3 or 4 mins of standing there the drinks waiter assured me someone would be with me. I waited. A party of 4 turned up and he did the same to them. A waitress appeared and without acknowledging me, took the party of 4 to a table. I waited. I was left standing there like a lemon. I should have left then but I persevered and another waitress showed me to a booth and left me with a menu before I could order a beer. I spent the next 10 minutes trying to order at least a beer as others were shown to seats and offered a drink. Eventually I managed to catch the eye of the waitress who had shown me to my seat and I was able to order - although it was clear she didn't know the menu so I ended up pointing at things - I don't think her English was especially bad although it didn't seem to be her first language so I was patient. I'd almost finished my beer by the time the food came. It wasn't until I was half way through the plate that I realised no one had brought me any sauces, I tried to catch the eye of a waiter but I was finished eating before anyone showed any interest. All the time the restaurant was less than half full. I'm Wrote this over my beer at 8:30 on a Weds evening so hardly peak. The food was just OK not very tasty, not bad but nothing special. Not sure if I was just feeling unloved at that stage. I ordered another beer, it arrive just as I was finishing my meal. Got to say I was disappointed at this F&B. I did the only thing we Brits can do, I said nothing, paid the bill and shock horror, left no tip. That's the first time I've done that for years. I won't be back here again in a hurry, it's left me disappointed in F&B. 2 stars because 1 seems harsh but I was tempted.

Is it is not often that I get into this part of the world. So when my local friend suggested that…read morewe go for lunch before my return journey to London, I jumped at the chance. As I was in a rush, I did not have a chance to sample the many delicious looking appetizers that were on offer here. However, after perusing the menu and deliberating for some time, I plumped for the braised duck with hoisin burger. We did not have to wait too long for our food, and soon I was presented with a well - ordered wooden block with my lunch on. I must say, the food here is as well presented as the tasteful decor of the place. Even though it was just a burger and fries, there was clearly effort made to do their best with every dish. The duck was moist and tasty, and the fries were great too. If this was a clue as to how great the rest of the food is here, I would love to return. Hopefully if I do get the chance to return, I will have the full three courses next time!

Had the 'Authentic Malaysian Curry (chicken)' the other night and it was delicious and well worth it. The only downside to this place is that the menu isn't as varied as I'd like lots of basic pub grub but the specials are excelent if they haven't sold out before you get there! My number 1 tip for this place - get there early and order quick!

The Storyteller Restaurant is supposedly inspired by southwest (USA) cuisine--Navajo maybe--and the…read moredecor suggests that it is. However, a not-so-close exploration of the menu makes it clear that the owners aren't quite sure what their theme really is. There are items like Po' Boys and Jambalaya from Louisiana, Elk burgers presumably from the north, a curry that's Indonesian, and Korean Style Kangaroo Rump from ... well if you have any sense of geography that's just confusing. Similar to the spread of items on the menu, the presentation of the food also reveals that the owner or the chef isn't quite sure what type of cuisine they're serving. Our quesadilla was served open face as a tortilla with all that should have been between two tortillas lumped on top; I'm not sure what that is but it isn't a quesadilla. The Po' Boy was a shrimp salad served on crostini rather than tucked into a mini loaf of french bread. Neither of those dishes is supposed to be pretty or beautifully arranged. To do so just misses the point. So the food wasn't authentic. How did it taste? Meh. I've experienced better. We ate our meal as if it weren't southwest-inspired and tried to enjoy it as just another meal. The soup was tasty. The quesadilla was Meh. The po' boy had too much sauce. The ribs were tasty but too dry. And I'm told that the burrito wasn't anything to write home about. Lastly, the service was pretty good but there were only three tables of customers in the restaurant. So, bottom line? I've had better but I wouldn't refuse to go if someone else really wanted to go.

We went here with a large group (~14), and it took upwards of an hour and a half to get our food…read moreafter we put our order in. There was some form of special night happening there it seemed, though we were told our order was in before them. Also, the waiting staff seemed flustered and short-tempered, though again this may have been a byproduct of the other large groups in there. That being said, the food was pretty good with fairly robust flavors, though depending on what you get you may be disappointed with the portion size. Highlights: Lowenbrau & Asahi on draught, array of food flavors from around the world (not just American) All in all, I wouldn't go out of my way to return, though wouldn't complain if I ended up there again (as long as they were quicker with the food).

I visited this take away whilst on holiday over the Easter break, ordered 2 children's meals (£4.75…read moreeach), a cod and chips and a large curry sauce. With the children's drinks I asked if I could swap the horrible drink cups offered for bottles of water. The young lad, Blake, who served me asked someone and then came back to me with 2 bottles of water. After a long day, long queue in the take away I was tired and hungry. Blake didn't tell me how much my bill was and I just offered my card, paid and left so I could get the kids and myself fed. When I got back to where I was staying rhe children were disappointed by the fact there was the smallest amount of chips with their side so they had some of mine. Later that evening I checked my bank and realised I'd been charged £23.10!!!! My parents, who we were away with, had ordered 2 cod and chips with a small curry which came to £18 which is about what I expected my bill to be. I immediately contacted the shop via Facebook to basically be told I'd got what I'd asked for and that was the price!!! I was told I'd ordered a LARGE cod and LARGE chips which bumped the price up an EXTRA £5 to my parents bill. The customer service qas just awful, it was all my fault for not hearing that asking for bottles of water added an EXTRA 75p onto my bill, it was MY fault that Blake had charged me for a large cod and large chips....there was nothing any different to my meal than there was to my parents, infact their fish was much nicer, mine was just dry and greasy. I will NEVER visit this chip shop again and unless you have super powers with your hearing, to hear the unsaid, then I'd urge you to so the same. This experience ruined the end of our holiday!!!!! Oh and just to add, I have now been blocked from their Facebook page, all because I queried my bill with them!!!!!!!!!!

Used to be great, but seems to have gone a little downhill in recent years. Can't put my finger on…read morewhat specifically is wrong, but just doesn't have that magic of a truly great chip shop. Portion size is hit and miss, sometimes you're overwhelmed by chips and other times disappointed. If you catch them at the right time and get a freshly cooked fish then all is well, otherwise it seems they try to anticipate a rush and cook a huge batch ... I've had more dried out fish than I think is really acceptable, but by the time you've got it home what can you do? For whatever reason I find something odd about their curry sauce and mushy peas - bit odd that they ladle them out of a hot food tray, then microwave them. Whatever, the curry sauce doesn't taste like it used to, and the peas are decidedly not mushy enough. Used to be the best in Tewkesbury but I've found the Abbey Fryer easily as good recently, which certainly didn't used to be the case.

Three choirs wine is (in my opinion) as good as anything else that we currently have in this country. The shop that they have on site is always well stocked and there are various wines on offer.

They also have a selection of oils, chutney, jams etc. The service is very friendly and they also have gift bags and boxes for occasions.
