We had to clean the chairs and table ourselves before sitting and no one came along and apologised. The lady who served us was pleasant and welcoming though. The "freshly brewed coffee" is actually from a machine that requires milk often when you're standing in a line. That said, the full English breakfast was brill. Whatever bread was used and the butter complimented it well. Sausages, bacon, egg, etc all cooked well. Compliments to the chef there. I think more staff are required, this will prevent there being long waiting times at the bar to order food/drinks as well as mean there's clean tables ready for customers to sit at.

Malic and his team do a great job and care for your every need (thanks Sarah) I had a soup to start butternut squash,this was very tasty and they had bring out gorgeous little warm seeded rolls, for my main I had a fillet steak which was cooked to just the way I like it (medium to well) and for the the best bit the pud I had apple and rhubarb crumble delicious. I will definitely be returning again soon, and will also try and get over to the Sunday carvery by all accounts it's well worth it. I would recommend booking for Fri, Sat & Sun as it can get busy.

We were a large party and given the chefs table next to the kitchen. A spacious and comfortable area that's set away from the other diners complete with a view of what happens in the kitchen. You will need long arms as the table is enormous and he plates are sometimes difficult to grab. Outside the chefs kitchen table room the other dinners seemed to have well spaced tables and comfortable seating. We opted for the Sunday platter with everything. Needless to say the platter was absolutely huge and contained everything.. vegetables came on separate plates, but I defy anyone to finish the entire thing. Thankfully they will offer a doggy bag-type arrangement. The meats were nicely cooked and even some crackling for the old school among us. The staff were very attentive and pleasant, the food was fine for us. Some may wish for a slightly thicker gravy with their meat, but as most of my party are from the North of England, gravy-a-plenty was fine. We also had desert, Eaton Mess and sticky toffee pudding. Nothing was left except a sense that we had all over-eaten and will (possibly) suffer for it later in life. Prices were reasonable, service was good and overall we were very impressed with how the restaurant has changed from its previous incarnation. Ideal for family, friends or just a good, hearty meal with a very nice of the Cotswolds. As a final note, we had a vegetarian order with us. He's not normally a carrot-only enthusiast, but is very fussy about meat (he likes meat cooked until it's "boot leather" which wasn't available here). The feedback was that this option was unimaginative, but did have many vegetables and the portion size was enormous. For those who aren't vegetarian, you'll have no problem. Support your local restaurant and book now. Highly recommended.

****Avoid this place on Sundays****…read more Sunday lunch is a major time to get the people in and through the tills quickly - enabling a good profit margin. This is the second time I've waited more than 30 minutes for a starter. The scallops were very good, served hot and the shellfish was nicely presented. It took more than an hour for the main course. Either the chef was overrun or didn't care. Chef's red wine gravy was very good and so easy the beef. I later learned that the head chef had quit and they were forced to use agency staff. Roast veg was underdone, Yorkshire puddings were overdone. I get the impression that this meal was rushed through preparation. Sorry lads, you really need to pull your finger out on Sunday lunches. The pub is not 'rammed' and there's absolutely no excuse if you're charging the full rate. Try here on any other day and it's fine. You will enjoy the food, but I'd avoid Sundays like a boy band member avoids a self-assessment demand from the HMRC.
