A lovely lunch at Orwells. Stunning pheasant with mushrooms and melt-in-the-mouth squash, with a lovely sauce and yummy raspberry shortcake with pistachio ice cream desert. Everything beautifully presented. Service is impeccable. And I do recommend the raspberry martini, it was delicious.

Met two dear friends for dinner and we had an absolutely lovely evening. Service was attentive but not over-the-top with great recommendations on food and wine. With an atmosphere to match the service combined with delicious food, we enjoyed a very memorable meal.

Quality of food was excellent and we were served by people who were (mostly) bright and cheerful. A memorable festive get together with family and loved the big round table (so much better than the long narrow table at a different venue in Oxford in Dec 2023)

A very cosy environment and a busy atmosphere gave the Fleece a really nice buzz. There was some big tables in enjoying Xmas work meals and so we were advised that service may be a little slower but in fact everything went very smoothly. The staff were all very friendly and professional despite being busy All the food was delicious, the service excellent and the choice of 0% beer very good! Portions were decent, there were some nice ‘gastro’ touches like the crisp chicken skin accompanying the Chicken Schnitzel and the truffle mayo. And the Tiramisu was stunning! All in all, great food, friendly service and a cosy venue

About the restaurant

The Bear & Ragged Staff in Cumnor is a world away from the Newbury & Swindon roads that stream past only a mile from its door. The heart of the pub is a glorious Tudor beauty. Ancient fireplaces, flagstone floors, and mullioned windows with carved lintels make the bar one of the finest anywhere. A comfortable eatery, conservatory, and South-facing terrace provide spaces for every mood – and winding stairs lead to cosy bedrooms with old oak doorways and beamed ceilings.

Great food - lovely flavours but crumble portion too big and my beef had a lot of tissue I had to cut out which was inedible. Apart from that I would definitely recommend.
