| I'm baffled by the comment from ryan1966. I went to the Fleece a couple of weeks ago (Jan 2010) and it does not have a fruit machine or dartboard. The service was fine, the fire blazing, the locals friendly and grub good (but still not cheap). When was it ever a "little village restaurant ?" It's always been a pub. Can't help thinking this comment is about a completely different pub. paulzwo - 21 Jan 2010 07:15 |
| oh my god!!!!! i live in nearby yate and have been using the fleece on and off for about 2 years. went back a couple of weeks ago to find the small little village resturant turned into yet another village boozer!! the land lord has gone and so has the standards. went to sit at our fav table to find a dart board and fruit machine in its place. locals have told me he has gone to a pub in charfield and belive me they are as upset as i am telling stories of the landlord/chef working pissed and swearing so half the village could hear. meal was nice but service was terrible!! young girl not trained and had empty plates in front of me, my wifes and 2 children for longer then we can say. how can something go sooo wrong. there we not many better places to go and eat then the fleece. there are now ryan1966 - 9 Dec 2009 14:21 |
| Having been to this pub last october on a visit to nearby wooton under edge, we were overwhelmed by the quality of food,staff and pub in general. We went back last night to discover the pub has changed hands, the menu has altered and just the general ambience had changed. Our food arrived and it wasn't good, the scampi was fine but the pizza had tomato puree all over it and the stew looked like baby food. The staff were very friendly and helpful, but what a disappointment from last time. Don't get me wrong if your passing the food is decent enough but defiantly not worth making the special trip for and we won't be returning. jenni444 - 10 Oct 2009 16:02 |
| The Fleece seems to change hands every 3 months and, sure enough, we couldn't get any food when I tried it because the new owners hadn't got the kitchen sorted out yet ! So I went back 3 weeks later and as of Aug 2009 everything seemed to be working. Butcombe & Bombardier excellent, but 2 groups of about 7 people arriving at the same time as us which meant we waited for nearly an hour for our nice but not exactly underpriced grub. Minor gripes aside, it's a fine unpretentious village pub and well worth popping in to see who the latest owners are. paulzwo - 3 Sep 2009 19:39 |
| The Fleece has now been sympathetically refurbished and modernised ( March 2008). It offers a good range of beers and although tied to S & N offers good independent beers including Butcombe.A real cider would really complete the offering, but they do have a good selection of keg ciders including inchs,scrumpy jack and strongbow. The food offered is a good selection of simple pub food, prepared fresh and cooked well. A nice selection of wines compliments well the food offering. The pub is a real credit to Andy and his family team and deserves to be well supported and flourish. melons3 - 15 Apr 2008 18:40 |
