The Eight Bells in Vale of White Horse

Lovely local pub, had a lovely pizza. Friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. Great stop off on a walk.

Friendly welcome and excellent food. One of those pubs you wished you could live down the road from.

Stopping by at this pub en route to my airbnb just outside of the village. It’s a nice and cosy pub and the proprietor (?) was very polite and accomodating, he enquired in the kitchen about whether a meal was vegan. Also gave me their wifi code as the reception was pretty bad. The meal (I had their vegan burger with fries) was great and their own ale was good, too. Will definitely come back during my stay.

Such a lovely, friendly, well kept pub. The food is incredible, well judged prone and all round satisfying, and reasonably priced, especially for the area. The beer selection has really been thought about, there's something for everyone, but not just the usual lineup. I'm really impressed, and I used to run bars and am probably a bit unfairly harsh usually.

We had a lovely fish and chips here at early evening. A nice couple of cask ales to Go with it. Friendly bar staff as well. A really nice authentic English pub

This 16th century pub is the perfect visit for a pint when in Long Crendon. Babs is a superstar host and the venue is warm and welcoming. The ales are kept well and in good condition. The village itself is lovely and the pub is a 'must visit' establishment.

Great front of house, thank you Babs. Fabulous roast, pink tender beef and plenty of it. Oh and the Yorkshire pudding was just amazing. Beautiful garden too.

This 17th century inn was originally called the five bells untill the church added 3 more bells in the tower so changed its name to its current 8 bells in 1771. Entrance to the front of the pub is a challenge for the less able but you can access the pub and carpark from chearsley road. Where there are just 2 smaller steps down to the bar inside the pub.We received a warm welcome and ordered the scampi and fish and chips from the comprehensive menu. They did give an option for half portions which was a nice touch as you don't always want a large meal in the middle of the day. Needless to say we went for the full portions!When the food first arrived I thought the scampi portion was a little on the small size imo however everything was well cooked including the chips which where nice and crisp. Peas also tasted nice and fresh and not over cooked. See picThe person I was with had the fish and chips, a decent portion which had nice crisp thin batter and crisp chips. She had opted to go for the peas rather than mushy peas which they where happy to substitute. See picA minor thing, but I appreciated the fact that you actually get a ketchup bottle rather than a tiny thimble of condiment, so commonly given out now in quite a few pubs I visit!Over all I would highly recommend this pub. Lovely old building full of character a warm welcome and great pub food! There is also a pub garden at the rear for Al fresco dining.

Stunning food, great portion sizes, fantastic service and an absolutely lovely setting. Had a fabulous meal here with my wife and friends one Saturday evening and couldn't fault it at all.

Come down for the weekend break away. Found this pub on Google map. Prefect local from where we are staying. Lovely little gem. Quarter finals world cup football was on, arrived before kick off. Notice on there website offering free pizza for all customers if England win and they did! BOUNS! Tho we did order food which was lovely. However, never got any pizza and felt we we left out. Could be cos we were not locals. Ask about it they said we had it all on the bar. But weren't told. Tho a group in front of us were given pizza's and few were give to in the garden. Some staff were polite some were not. Slight let down on a prefect afternoon!
