| I'm struggling to see how this is the pub represented by Aldbourne in the Good Beer Guide. It did have one unusual beer from a brewery not normally seen in these parts (Bank Top Gold Digger). But the other ales were all national ones - Landlord, Doom Bar & Spitfire. Service provided was the bare minimum with a distinct lack of communication - one of those moments where you're expected to hand cash over without being informed of the price. Nevertheless, this is a nicely located pub that feels more like a dining one that a drinkers pub. A dog was present in the bar and appeared to be the source of a few unpleasant smells. Nice pub in a nice location. But seemingly taking its status for granted. blue_scrumpy - 10 Jul 2016 13:06 |
| Popped in last week, not the best pub I've been to, but beer was good and food was reasonable, my dog was also welcome. JJStanners - 18 Dec 2012 09:16 |
| Located in a quiet village setting, probably why Dr Who was filmed here many years ago - even a waste bin in the shape of a TARDIS. Stayed one night here, room was a bit tired but the beer was fine, 4 ales on (Otter, Doom Bar, Spitfire and a changing guest - RWB when I was there) and the food very good. Would stay here again as it had a great atmosphere and its dog friendly. Better than the Blue Boar on The Green, which surprised me. Breakfast the next morning was fine also.

| Located in picturesque village but the pub itself seems more like a town pub - crowd of smokers outside, rather boring beer selection. I visited on the day of England's first World Cup match so it probably wasn't typical. Anyway, nothing wrong with it, but I wouldn't make a big effort to return. newbury_drinker - 15 Jun 2010 17:13 |
