The main part of the pub is as described below, though there is now a large wooden bungalow adjacent, part of the same business, called The Potting Shed, which has a very pleasant veranda overlooking the large garden. On our first visit there was no hot food available in the pub so we just sat there and enjoyed the beers, while on our second visit the pub was closed and all service was in the Potting Shed. None of that mattered – the same helpful staff, decent beer and good value food was had. Ales on were Shagweaver, Old Hookey and Hookey, all in superb condition and very much appreciated. One of the best canalside options we found this trip and worth a revisit.

Rambling ex farm house with a wonderful beer garden.

Catering for diners, canal user and ramblers.

Food looked great and three real ales - 2 from Hook Norton and 1 from North Cotswold (chosen) were in excellent condition.

Recommended to seek out.

Very much as described in the previous two reviews, with a great old-fashioned feel. Beers (from Hook Norton, North Cotswold and a house beer of unknown origin) were in excellent condition and the home made food was also superb. Do reserve in advance if eating however. Strongly recommended.
