This popular late 17th-century pub is the oldest in Goring. The two original rooms are still clearly evident. The lower room has a grand inglenook fireplace and the unmarked entrance to the gents toilet merges almost seamlessly into the wall, which can make it hard to find when the need arises.

The food offering specialises in Spanish and Asian dishes, plus traditional pub classics Wednesdays to Saturdays. Pizzas are available in the evenings.

In the 1960s the pub was extended into the former blacksmith's creating The Forge Bar which is now primarily a dining area. Food served includes light bites, pub classics, and several more sophisticated dishes. There is a large and pleasant garden to the rear of the pub. A quiz is held on the second Sunday of each month.

The turning by the pub leads to the public pay and display, Wheel Orchard, car park.
