What a brilliant place, I thoroughly recommend the food on offer and wish I lived closer in order to savour more of the menu. I was enjoying lunch with friends who have recently moved to Newbury who had come across this gem of a country pub . .. guess there'll be more lunch meets arranged here. I won't object. Keep up the good work - it's a joy

Always a good pint and a lovely spiny on a summer evening

Lovely pub on the cricket green in the roling Berkshire downs. Shame about the exceptionally grumpy landlord, chin up mate it might never happen !

I stopped by during a one day cycle from Wales to London in the hope of a Sunday roast, and am I glad I did! The kitchen was closing but the staff made an effort to accommodate me and get me a full lunch regardless. Everyone - including the locals - was friendly and my only regret was that I couldn't hang around longer to enjoy some cricket on the green opposite.

The cod and chips has gone from being around a tenner to SEVENTEEN POUNDS FIFTY. For cod and chips and a bit of salad. And the scampi has gone up by over a fiver. And I can only conclude that the landlord was having a bad day, as I’m sure that he isn’t always that rude and surly. (Although he was last time I visited as well.

Great local pub and a perfect detour if you're walking the Ridgeway. We stopped for lunch and had a good selection from the menu. The fish and chips were good and there were several veggie options (the tart was tasty!). There's a couple of ales on offer too, and I can recommend a half of the Wainwright to go with your lunch. Looks like a great spot for summer with a nice beer garden and views across the village cricket field

Great pub in a super spot opposite cricket pitch and duck pond.with very welcome Sunday roast. Nice veggie options too. Pull off the A34 to break your journey here rather than any of the services!

I can see why there are mixed reviews of the staff. The lady behind the bar is lovely and helpful. The chap in charge however is utterly dreadful, and shouldn't be running a pub. I'm assuming that the rest of the business works really well, as they wouldn't be operating. However, I chose to leave and go somewhere else nearby where they all were pleasant (and everything else was good too)

A delightful countryside pub overlooking the cricket pitch.We stopped in here after a long and tiring diversion during one of the M4's unending road works...a warm welcome, and some lovely food, lifted our spirits immensely.

Really good food and atmosphere! They did a great vegan chilli for me and it was delicious. Staff were polite and accommodating. Great range of ales and beer.
