This lovely old pub in the quiet village of Padbury has a very modern feel while retaining much of the old building's character and features. Unpretentious, white-painted exterior offers a warm welcome inside. The large bar, split in two by a wall, has three handpumps (but usually only two in regular use) often with local ale. It has a variety of comfortable seating with tables, chairs and benches. Limited menu but with specials - such as steak night, banger night. Meat from local butcher. Pizza oven being planned. The car parking is limited, but there is some parking on the street.
