The Sherborne Arms - Cotswold

We visited the Sherborne Arms on our travels of the Cotswolds great holiday! Food was fantastic, reasonably priced and the best we have had all eeek. The plumb crumble . Also a chilly lunch time but marquee heaters were toasty. We would thoroughly recommend.

I stopped by with a couple of friends after visiting RAF Fairford and originally planned to stop in Bibury, big mistake totally packed! But even from Essex I knew the area like the back of my hand as my late nan lived in Stroud, anyway I digress. I knew of the pub and decided to drop in with my friends. On arrival there's the usual one way system and you order at the entrance and it's table service. When your drinks are delivered you pay then. It's a pub which is on the beaten track (B4425) but can be found off the beaten track, and does have a village feel to it which is lovely. So, if you can't get into a pub in Bibury and are looking for a drink, give this pub a try.

Girlfriend and I stayed in Burford over night and looked for a place to go for pub lunch on Sunday, which is when we stumbled across the Sherborne Arms, what a place, lovely food, friendly staff, warm feeling as soon as you walk through the front door. If we lived closer would definitely be coming back. 10/10

Sunday lunch with family comprising 4 people. Arrived as booked at 12.30pm and we were seated immediately. Restaurant was not particularly busy at this time. Menus and drinks followed shortly afterwards. Good selection to choose from.Wait for food to arrive was reasonable at around 15 minutes. Two people chose the roast beef with trout and chicken and ham pie chosen by the other two. All were considered tasty and good value.Dessert menu was offered and choices made. Again, all met with approval. The steamed orange and lemon sponge in particular.Atmosphere became much busier later on but service did not suffer.Couple of points worthy of mention. The roast is restricted to one variant only per week and the cherry and almond steamed sponge portion was quite small with no almonds evident.Will be visiting again

Been a while since I wrote a review but I just had to do this one.I went on a coach trip with 43 other lunch goers. This booking was made a while ago. This pub is in its 4th generation of owners, believe me, there won't be a 5th.We arrived. Put into separate parts of the pub. The heated side had 2 large reservations for god knows who. So some of us were shoved into another part. 1. No heating as such. The owner said that there was a heater in the room. The room was approximately 16' by 30'The said heater threw out heat for about a 6 inch radius. We pre booked our meals. Roast Pork or Chicken. 2, the food was tepid. The plates Stone cold. Staff could handle complaints about the cold food. Stuffing was practically raw and the so called roast potatoes were only in the oven for 20 minutes. They were cold and hard. I asked for my new potatoes to be changed for roast before I received my meal) I was told that the plates could not be changed in anyway. The manager finally came after our tour manager informed him of our concerns. I asked as they knew weeks ago about our booking, why was the heating not turned on in the morning. No answer. About the cold and under cooked food no answer. Very disappointed to say the least. Having been part of a catering family for many years, I can only say that they all need basic training. If the chef can turn out half cooked veg and plate food on cold plates i can't see them getting more return visits from customers.
