    Great food at this pub. Very convivial company. Log fire in the back room. Hosts incredibly accommodating. No wonder Sunday lunch is booked up by Wednesday!

    I absolutely love the GG. Always friendly and welcoming, well kept beer and a great selection of wines and gins. Brilliant food and the loveliest atmosphere. They also have rooms so I'm looking forward to staying some time so I can really give the wine list a good workout.

    What a gem! *Really* excellent food, wonderfully charming staff, perfectly kept real ale, and an interesting looking selection of gin too. The ales on tap were from Gritchie Brewery, one of Guy Ritchie's less well known ventures - good stuff though! I've only been here the once so far; apparently the publican (who is also also the chef) has only been running the place since June 2022 - an engaging and good humoured young chap, somehow seemingly able to look after a 15 month old girl at the same time with equal ease which, though I'm not a parent, frankly amazes me. I had the beetroot and pecan soup for a starter, which was quite deliciously aromatic and earthy, with hints of toasted fennel seed, served with fresh in-house bread. My partner had the rarebit-stuffed mushroom, which certainly delighted her! For my main I risked the fish and chips. Every now and again I persist in ordering fish and chips in the hope of finding something that isn't watery, bland and overcooked. Score! Despite being a long way from the coast, this place knocked it out of the park: best fish and chips I've had in perhaps 10 years? Despite that, my partner's choice of the steak and ale pie was the winner - rich and meaty, with perfect pastry. So good. I was kinda full by now but went for the tiramisu just because everything else had been so good - it didn't disappoint. My partner had an affogato, which was elevated by his home made ice cream. Apparently they have rooms as well, so I think in future we'll stop overnight here to break up our journeys to and from the West country - apparently you can book on Airbnb, though it's allegedly a little cheaper to book with them directly. Seriously recommend this place. Beautifully clean and elegantly decorated and fitted out. Even his baby daughter was cute, and I can't usually stand children. A bit remote but well worth going out of your way for.
