| Three ales on - Doom Bar, Timothy Taylor Gold and one from the Concrete Cow brewery. Latter was in good nick. No food after 5pm on a Sunday but they did heat up out baby's food for us. Lovely setting too. duchyjim - 28 Sep 2014 22:06 |
| The toothsome village of Weston Underwood is home to this cracking village local and my partner in crime enjoyed a couple of fine pints of Woodforde's Wherry while we sat down to a copious repast one Sunday lunchtime. Service was friendly and the weather spectacular - a classic English country pub experience. BoehmBawerk - 16 Feb 2014 19:24 |
| An attractive ivy covered pub in the middle of this pretty village, this seems to be a popular meeting place for the locals and whilst the food was definitely a level or two above your standard �pub grub� they have resisted the urge to go down the gastro route like so many of their contemporaries. It is perhaps a little smaller inside that you might expect, with the main part of the pub being a long, but not very deep room running along the front, although this does have some partitions to break it up a little. There is however also a dining room at the rear although I didn�t investigate this, as well as a function room that looks as though it may have been a skittle alley in a former life (assuming pubs around here had skittle alleys?). There is also a beer garden at the back adjacent to the car park. The middle section of the pub has an old stone floor which complements the stone bar counter, and there were just a couple of small tables in the window providing the very limited seating. An open, double chimney breast leads to another area off to the left and this had a couple of old leather sofas and a couple of small, high tables and chairs. Most of the seating is to be found in a red tiled room to the right, although even here there were only four, admittedly larger, tables. The decor in here is probably the most interesting with dark wood panelling covering the front and rear walls and an exposed brick wall to the right, along with an old fireplace and some shelving with a few books for you to peruse. The menu was a decent enough selection of home cooked food, and consisted of several pub classics such as Burger and Fish & Chips, along with a couple of more adventurous dishes. Prices were not unreasonable with most of the mains being around the �9 - �12 mark and I enjoyed what I had. Staff all seemed pleasant and helpful and a notice advertised a forthcoming beer festival. Beers on tap were the local (from Olney) Hopiness Hopping Mad, Woodforde�s Wherry, Doom Bar and Pedigree. The only cider was Strongbow, unfortunately. Blackthorn - 7 Jun 2012 21:06 |
| Had the most awful experience over Sunday Roast. Roast Potatoes rock hard, veg had no taste, swimming in water and had been reheated by microware, definitely not fresh, also small portion for a high cost of �9. Complained to owner who was rude and didn�t what to hear customer feed back. Really nice looking pub, shame about the food and staff. Complete put off. farrark - 23 Sep 2009 09:17 |
| Great pub! Had dinner 2 evenings in a row whilst staying nearby and the food/service was excellent. The beers were in topnotch condition with 4 ales on tap: Greene King IPA, Hobgoblin, Woodfords Wherry & Tribute. The village is also Idyllic. peteyg - 25 Jul 2009 15:29 |
