We were lucky to find this gem - lovely place to visit ! Everyone was so friendly- we enjoyed bacon rolls in the cafe and treated ourselves to lots of treats in the shop ! I would recommend a visit - please support this community shop & cafe !

The best roast lamb I have ever had!

Was booked in here for one night ahead of a customer visit in the area. Very peculiar setup and not one that I recommend. Was contacted beforehand asking for my arrival time and whether i can self check in. No problem, I can do that if you tell me how. No response. I arrive. It's winter. It's dark. The first door I tried has no response. The door is on the side. The owner/manager sat inside in an almost dark room. I was asked to fill out a check-in form on paper, supplying info they already had or didn't need. I didn't fill it all in. It's a work booking, and I pointed out they'd already contacted me on my mobile anyway. Then, I got shown to the room. It was Room No.3 in an annexe. It was warm, with a metal frame four poster bed. But it was not the room I booked (superior room with bay window with seating area). This was not superior. It was dirty, dusty, and very, very poor quality. The door had two locks, but only one was functional. The door was loose in the frame, so I put the chair under the handle so I could feel safer. The rest was a mix of furniture. Some good. Some odd. A small fridge that wasn't plugged in (I did so, and shortly after unplugged the noisy little beast). A weird collapsible table, a heavily scaled kettle, sachets of coffee, and tea. I dare not walk around barefoot. I had no view to speak of through the tiny window - I didn't see how bad it was until the morning . The bathroom was worse. Mouldy, damp, leaky, and a film of dirt on all the walls and mirrors. The shower was heavily scaled, and the bath dripped constantly. I struggled to get hot water out of the sink tap, so I avoided the shower in the morning, grim as that may sound. There were multiple wifi connection points around the site, and it was good enough to attend early morning conference calls. There was an adjoined room 3a. I'm not sure what that setup was, but the walls were so thin i could hear every cough and wheeze in the morning from the tenant. The best thing I can say is the bed was comfortable and the TV huge. If you think I'm making this up, check the photos. I have made a recommendation to our organisations travel company to remove this from the site. There's quaint and rural, then there's this place - it's a health hazard, IMO. Avoid.

Came out of my way with my family to the oxford sainsbury’s cafe to get a good meal we saw on the sainsbury’s cafe menu online to turn up and see completely different! hardly selling anything just “soup” and microwaved bread basically. let alone not much food for children or vegetarians. don’t come here.

Gode senger, bra størrelse på rom, veldig god frokost nok til å bli god og mett, hyggelig betjening, ligger landlig fint.

Absolutely Superb food. Everything is cooked from the freshest ingredients. Been going there for several years and it never stops being the best food to be found anywhere. Delightful simple tiny pub where everything is done with integrity.

Top notch restaurant. David was a great host with excellent recommendations on food.

We came here for dinner after indoor golf. It’s pretty terrible to be honest. Not a lot of people dining there yet the service was slow. They had run out of garlic bread which seemed ridiculous. They clearly do a roaring trade in deliveroo etc so not sure if that has an impact on stock levels. The kids puddings were laughable - tiny. The brownie was literally 2 small bites and the supposed fruit pot that accompanies the ice cream was literally 2 slithers of a strawberry and 2 tiny chunks of pineapple. Overpriced, mediocre food. Won’t return.

Lovely meal to welcome in the new year. Our friends loved it. We had scotch egg, mushroom and terrine starters. Followed by lamb rump, chicken and pork belly. Finished with Baileys Creme Brûlée, Eton Mess and bread and butter pudding. All lovely. Bottle of Sauvignon was nice too. Only £29 but very nice.

We had some small plates for dinner as we had a large lunch. We had squid, some mushroom arancini and bruschetta. All were good size for starters and very tasty, especially the arancini. Service was excellent and staff are very friendly. Fairly small menu but what they had on offer looked good and our food was good value.
