The best restaurants serving British food in Sibford Cherwell South East

A warm, well maintained, clean and friendly tavern offering excellent meals and deserts. We enjoyed our dinner and the atmosphere was very comfortable.

My husband, daughter and I were visiting friends for a week in Shipston and this place became our second home. The building is really lovely- traditional and with a very pretty bar which is really cozy... perfect for dogs, kids and anyone wanting a good chat and a great pint (fab selection of ales and lagers). We loved the sofa in the corner for playing cards. I imagine it's super lovely when the fire is lit in winter. It's the garden that we loved most though.. there's a natural wig wam tree thing with kids stuff in so perfect for little ones. Lots of tables with an uninterrupted view of the rolling hills. They don't 'do' food but have a wood fired pizza oven that comes once every month and it was amazing! I think they have a similar thing with local fish and chips too. We were also there on 'sharing night' when the locals all bring in stuff like cheese and home made bread to share on the bar. All in all, this was a fantastic pub with great staff, a beautiful garden and a really charming, cozy bar. We will be back!

First time here & v much looking forward to returning soon. Absolutely beautiful evening. Amazing food, every element was delicious. Real care & attention with lots of little surprises. The family team are all so welcoming, spending time chatting to us & others. We even left with two loaves of their sublime sourdough! We are so lucky to have this wonderful place nearby. No idea why it's taken us 3 years to find it, but fully intend to make up for lost time. Thank you!

Had a friends birthday at The Gate, the food and drink were top notch, great atmosphere and friendly staff. Highly recommended

A warm and friendly welcome. Good service and several vegan options including a delicious chocolate and cherry cheesecake 😋

We stayed here for one night. It was a Sunday. The owner and his staff were welcoming and helpful. Our room was a step away from the main door to the pub. It was quite small. Well equipped though. The sliding door into the shower room was very noisy. There was no hot water to the wash basin. The plug didn’t work either. The owner said he was waiting for someone to do the work. There were plenty of teas, coffee, biscuits, milk etc. Also botties of water and orange juice. We found the parking quite difficult. The pub is situated in a narrow lane with no actual car park. We enjoyed our stay. The evening meal which was predominantly Greek was very good.
