| Comfortable, homely locals' pub in centre of village that's miles better than the nearby Falcon Inn for beer: Stroud's 'Tom Long' and Hook Norton's 'Twelve Days' were on and both well kept when last visited. Didn't sample the food but (apart from Puppy Dog Pie! - actually steak and ale pie) seemed the usual fare. Inviting roaring fire in one of the bars was welcome. Garganey - 4 Jan 2012 14:45 |
| visited this pub at 13.30 one friday afternoon. I found only two people finishing a meal. The wife and I were in the pub 10 minutes waiting for a drink and saw nobody behind the bar. Other customers came in wanting food and drinks, and they left because of the lack of staff. In the ten minutes I was there I could have helped myself finished my drink and left, nobody would be any the wiser. We left for the Falcon instead! hmrs - 11 Sep 2011 09:47 |
| Plus point- the beer was good. Minus points- food was rather average and took ages to arrive. The couple next to us waited 45 minutes for a pair of chicken wings. We left after waiting 20 minutes for our desserts, without result. The staff didn't even bother to apologise. I might go back for the ale, but I won't go back for the food or the service. deselby - 25 Jul 2011 22:44 |
| Perfect Cotswolds pub for me - they are doing lunch and there is a nice little courtyard between the bars where the dog is welcome. Sit in the shade listening to ladies planning the CW walks and some spanairds. Food was very nice and the barman and chef bother spoke to me during a solo visit after a 10 miler in the slad valley.

| Quality hostelry in a beautiful Cotswold location, Stroud Tom Long on good form and the food was very tasty,with generous portions. One to walk to someday for a proper day of ale sampling. virginiaplain - 25 Jan 2011 13:31 |
