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.

May Hill came up on the National Trust web site as a nice place for a walk and the AA web site said just over an hour so have got bored of everywhere local we decided to go on a Sunday. Naturally lunch would be a good precursor to a walk (as long as not too heavy) and we decided on this one over the Glasshouse Inn as it was on the north side of May Hill and closer to a recommened NT walk. I emailed the pub late on the Saturday but didn't get a response, I was asking if they offered more choice that just roasts which were listed on their web site anyway we decided to take a flyer and rolled up there at 12.30 aiming to beat the 1pm rush. As many people do we took a wrong turn in the village taking a right too early the web site says turn right after 100 yds but 10 yds after first right is the correct right and my car doesn't measure yards look for the pub sign before turning is my advice! Parking was easy in the upper car park, no hassle, plenty of room. It was very quiet when we arrived, a few cars outside but fewer people inside curiously but it picked up. Ambience was spot on, friendly staff behind counter, nice terrace which is where we took residence. Toilets were clean with nice accessories and paper towels and a hand dryer. Starter of fishcakes for me and artichoke salad were both excellent and we both had the pork which was excellent. We also indulged in a dessert, choc/ginger torte for me and choc brownie for her with a choice of cream or ice cream. The was followed by coffee (unlimited supply is a nice touch) and Earl grey tea, both which we didn't realise at the time were included in the 3 course set menu meal. The total for this with a pint of ale and a lime and lemonade was a modest £38.40, closer to the cost of one persons meal in other more fashionable parts of Gloucestershire. This is one of those pubs that I don't want to recommend to too many people because it might mean one day I can't get a table but this time.. The walk was excellent too, more info on NT web site.

It was a lucky dip that ended in a wonderful meal and a very nice experience thanks to the pub owners. We rocked up around 4pm and were told by a staff member in the parking lot, who kindly offered to take our photo, that they were probably out of roast being it was so late in the day but he would speak to the chef. 20 mins later we had a couple of beverages at a nice table in the lounge overlooking the water and a delicious beef roast dinner with root vegetables, cauliflower cheese, Yorkshire puddings and gravy. We cleaned our plates and followed lunch up with a sweet and tasty slice of homemade carrot cake. It was absolutely fantastic. The staff were ever so friendly and really looked after us.

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.

They do insist on using brioche buns (uhk), but they burgers are juicy and meaty and being sat watching the river gently push past makes up for this one annoyance.
