Best Pubs in East Hendred

Very nice interior. Friendly and accommodating staff. I had the burger and my friend had the beef pie. Delicious food.

Took my dad here for his birthday on Saturday, there were four in our party. The starters and main course were delicious. We had the salt and pepper squid, mussels with some bacon and cider sauce, boubillaise; chicken confit cassoulet, pumpkin and sage tortellini, smoked haddock, and ham and eggs. Only small criticism is the tortellini was a bit dry and would have benefited from a sauce of some kind, but it was really tasty. Unfortunately, once our main courses had been served, service deteriorated and became quite slow., leaving us with dirty plates for a prolonged period. Eventually we were able to order desserts and three of us had the hollygog pudding. It was slow arriving and when it did, the custard (orange and bay) was cold, and the pudding was burnt and had the texture of something warmed up in the microwave, and for slightly too long, so it was rubbery rather than spongey. I understand they were having issues with power cuts in the kitchen, which might have accounted for the slower service, but the dessert was really disappointing. Car parking is a bit of an issue because there's a recreation ground next to the pub, so it's busy and there's not really anywhere nearby to park instead. However, all that said, overall this was a really nice experience and I would return. Based on the quality of the starters and main courses, I would recommend.

We had a great experience at this pub - first visit but it was cosy, great value for money for the lunch special with a drink and great food.

We have just enjoyed the best roast dinnes we have had for a long while. The food is a credit to the kitchen.

Friendly staff, efficient service and excellent food, as ever.
