Paxford, British, Modern Restaurant Guide

2021 Review: Classic, “lovely” Cotswolds inn, with rooms, that’s well-reviewed in all feedback for its “good pub food”. Even those who find it dependable, however, can feel that the menu “could use some more interesting dishes”.

This “excellent inn” on the northern edge of the Cotswolds (West Midlands Tourism’s Best Pub of the Year 2023) is “exactly what a large village local should be, but so rarely is”. The menu is a bit posh to be described as pub grub and there are alternative options, both for vegans, and for special evenings (for example, game suppers in season).
