    Christmas Time at The Talbot
    Cristin L.

    We were disappointed to find that the nearby curry house was closed on St. Stephens / Boxing day, we had been looking forward to a feed there. So instead we found out ourselves in The Talbot and we were not disappointed. I skipped having a proper starter so I would be able to finish my main, but the noises from my three dinner companions were all good about their starters. I did however have a bowl of olives to tide me until the mains arrived and there was plenty in the bowl, filled me up a little too much to be honest. For a main I went for the Blade of Beef, which came carrots, mushrooms and other veg cooked in a lovely gravey. It also came with roast potatoes. It was delicious and hearty food. The Talbot itself is a bustling bar with a nice atmosphere when it fills up at night time. When its not so full earlier in the evening it presents itselfs perfectly for a quiet drink. Staff were attentive and friendly.

    I found this place warm and inviting. Felt like a neighborhood place. Our dinners were delicious and served by friendly staff.

    Tucked right into the charm of the Cotswolds, Porch House restaurant is the kind of place that…read moreinstantly makes you slow down notice the small town charm. From the moment you walk through the door, you're met with that quintessential Cotswold feel--low beamed ceilings, warm wooden floors, and a cozy, intimate atmosphere that works just as well for a relaxed lunch as it does for a intimate dinner. It's quaint without trying too hard, and you can feel the history in the space. The staff are genuinely cheerful and welcoming, adding to the overall experience without being overbearing. Service flows naturally, you order your food and drinks at the bar before heading to your table. As for the food, it absolutely delivers. From the main courses, everything is thoughtfully prepared and satisfying, rounding out an experience that feels both comforting and a little special at the same time. If you're looking for a true taste of the Cotswolds--both in atmosphere and hospitality--Porch House Restaurant is a spot well worth visiting.

    Great dinner during a quick stop in Stow-on-the-wold. It says it's the oldest pub in England. We…read morecame around 5:30 on a weekday and they said no tables available but we could take one of the tables for bar seating. We ordered and paid at the bar and food was served pretty quickly. I like how they had a nice kids menu for £10 and kids scarfed down the cheesy pasta happily. I ordered one of the specials which was a halibut (£36) and it was super delicious! Gnocchi and fish were seasoned and cooked perfectly and I couldn't stop trying to eat every last bite. Other two in the party had the peri peri chicken and burger, both also praising the food. It was a very memorable meal and highly recommend it!

    Never have I ever left a restaurant in tears. You know when…read moreyou just *feel* the racism? It doesn't need to be blatant but is usually subtle. POC will understand 100% that feeling. We booked this last minute and as soon as we walked in, were ignored. A white couple came in after us and the blonde waitress went directly around us and took them to a table. I made direct eye contact as she was taking them, as if to say, I saw that and yes we're still here. She intentionally avoided us completely after as we were standing there waiting to be helped. The man behind the bar saw, seated us instead, and then we were ignored for another 20 minutes. I asked another blonde waitress if we could be helped and she said WE'LL GET TO YOU. She had never even acknowledged our presence or existence prior. I was already so upset we just decided to leave after that. We left with empty bellies and a trip to a local grocery store instead. There's a Yelp review from 9 days ago about this and one on TripAdvisor from this month saying the EXACT SAME THING.

    Had lunch recently at the Bell at Stow and was very happy with our meal. Everything was really…read moredelicious, and very filling. We had: - Crispy Lincolnshire Poacher, roasted sweet potato, honey roasted carrots, baby spinach, chicory, avocado (£8.50) - basically a grown up mozzarella stick that was so delicious we had a hard time getting our mom to share bites with us. - Mixed roast beef and pork, crackling & Apple sauce w/ goose fat potatoes, double egg Yorkshire pudding, red cabbage, honey roasted roots cauliflower cheese and gravy (£16.50) - thank god we saw another table receive their servings first because then we knew this was a huge portion to be shared. Very good, traditional English meal - Crispy pork belly, creamy truffle mash, baby spinach, roasted button onion, cauliflower purée, apple sauce (£16.50) - delicious, especially the creamy truffle mash. Service was friendly although we had to catch their attention a bit more than I like. The space has a welcoming, well-decorated pub feel but well lit. We realized afterwards that they had out door seating which would have been nice to take advantage of with the fantastic weather! There is a parking lot out front.
