| Popped in the other Saturday,a chilly autumn night. The big wood fire you look forward to had gone out,and there was only one bitter on; a nice Brakspear though. Food was ok, based around chips. It is a good location and its the type of pub you want to go in and feel welcome.Can't shake the feeling its gone a bit downhill. The 'secret' gents? has a sign on the door saying Gentlemen..

| A great option as it's a country village pub close to a train station so there is real ease of access - well worth thinking of if deciding on a convenient meeting point between London and Oxford. It's low beamed and dark inside and you should go to the hidden gents before you have had your fourth pint, but the beer garden is spacious and it avoids the pretensions of the nouveau riche Miller of Mansfield. Goring is also a pretty spectacular village. Go! BoehmBawerk - 9 Oct 2011 15:15 |
| First pub i encountered on way from station. My kind of place with a busy beer garden.... Had to ask where the gents were :-) its a conversation starter. Mappiman - 30 Jun 2011 18:45 |
| Easter saturday - quiet but very pleasant - found the secret door to the gents amusing particularly with the sign being elsewhere ! All in all a pleasant experience nogs - 3 Apr 2010 18:01 |
| My favourite pub at the moment - it has everything a good English country pub needs and is exceptionally well run. Although the restaurant is often extremely busy it doesn't detract from the pub atmosphere in any way and the food, by the way, is far better than any other pub food I have tasted. Of course, if you want instant McDonalds type garbage you won't find it here but the clientele are mostly much more appreciative of quality than that. Goring is fortunate in being well supplied with pubs but this is by far the best in the area. beezer - 10 Sep 2009 11:30 |
