The New Inn

We recently stayed in a large group from Friday 16th - Monday 19th of May at The New Inn for our wedding at the nearby Cripps Barn.|We held a group dinner on the Friday night at the New Inn before the wedding Saturday, and then stayed through until Monday to celebrate for the whole weekend with our family and friends.||The service, rooms, food & drinks from start to finish was nothing short of perfect and we can’t stop talking about how brilliant they made the weekend with such a wonderful base to come back to and get ready for the big day in ||In the lead up to the wedding my husband was in contact with the team who helped to advise us on a hot buffet/small plates style dinner and we’re so helpful & friendly with our (many) questions! |Come the weekend - check in was very smooth and all rooms absolutely gorgeous, the “bridal” suite with the terrace was so special. We were given a tour of everyone’s rooms and then talked through the meal and the fact we would have a manager allocated just to us overseeing it. We started the evening in the beer garden (with such a wide selection of beers and drinks - Best Aperol Spritz I’ve had in years!) before heading into the restaurant for our private group meal. The portions and food were fantastic, the sliders in particular were insane! The food just kept coming and was such great value for money. ||Come the wedding morning breakfast was absolutely delicious and the staff were all so friendly & lovely to our family and friends and accommodating to any requests. The morning after our wedding - the 2 ladies covering breakfast (so sorry we didn’t catch your names) were so sweet with us all and congratulated us on our wedding etc again making us feel very special. |||Monday morning before we left they also kindly accommodated a few of our friends who were staying up the road and letting them buy a breakfast each so they could sit with the rest of us before we said our goodbyes. ||Rooms & beds were so comfortable, spacious & beautifully designed. We had nothing but compliments from all our guests that stayed for the weekend ||The rooms, food and facilities were fantastic - it’s such a beautiful Cotswold pub with such a lovely atmosphere and is so worth a visit, if you are thinking of staying at The New Inn or eating there for a special occasion don’t hesitate ! They were amazing ||Thank you so much to everyone at The New Inn for making our wedding weekend so special ||Fran & Charlie

The setting of the rooms was lovely and so was our family suite room. However it was quite dusty in the room and could tell it had been like that for a while. |Staff on arrival were very friendly. However, they could have provided more information about the process with breakfast and check out (time etc) |The restaurant was lovely and we both had high hopes looking forward to dinner but overall experience was not very enjoyable. The service was very slow. We waited 30+ minutes after receiving the bill to be able to pay.|I had the ribeye steak for dinner and for £32 I was quite disappointed as the steak was reasonably small and arrived in the sauce which made it quite soggy. My partner ordered a chicken burger and was quite satisfied with this. |We attended the dinner hoping to have a Sunday dinner each, but were told they have ran out. There were also multiple meals/items on the menu which were missing off the menu leaving a very limited option to start with. |Car parking was quite limited but as the night went on, spaces freed up a bit. Something to keep in mind if you stay here as there is limited road side parking as well. ||Overall, the stay was lovely! However, there are multiple things I mentioned which would put me off staying here again.

Excellent lunch… could not fault anything. Service excellent, food outstanding, outdoor seating was lovely. Looking forward to returning. Shout out to the waiter for recommending the side of vegetables to go with my sole, they were top notch.

We were here at the weekend based on a friend's recommendation. Food was just excellent. Menu is short, with both Mains and Smalls which was ideal for my parents who don't eat much. Similar price to other Cotswold pubs but really really good food - we were so impressed. Serving staff were a bit dopey - seemed young and inexperienced - but nothing too amiss. Overall, this was a fabulous treat.

A last minute decision to book a room here on Sunday night. Beautiful location and both my partner and I noticed the exceptional cleanliness throughout, both indoors and outdoors. On arrival, three staff huddled muttering behind the bar as we tried to check in as they didn't have the booking on their clipboard. Felt slightly unprofessional however this was minor. We were shown to our room (2), and from then on the service was great (the lady serving breakfast deserves a mention, she was busy but so friendly and continued her smile regardless of the busy period she had). The room was directly above the restaurant so slightly noisy until closing but nothing more than would be expected. It was equipped with plenty of towels, vanity kits and tea/coffee facilities. Very comfortable space and had a great night's sleep. The only gripe about the room was the water temperature in the shower was inconsistent. At times it was running very cold with only a few seconds of luke warm water. We had some food to share in the evening which was lovely. The pork croquette must be tried! Breakfast was also included, table service and one of the best full breakfasts we have had. Overall, whilst I think there's always room for improvement, it wouldn't feel right to give anything other than 5* for our stay here. Thank you! Would definitely recommend.

We were looking forward to our first meal after driving from Norfolk and booking a table after seeing some good reviews, although completion was limited in the area. The location was good but we were let down straightaway by drinks being wrong or not arriving entirely. Food orders arrived wrong, while the end result tasted great it took a bit of effort. All could have been resolved by some friendly smiles but few could be found.

Wow .... stunning Cotswold village. Stunning pub. Beautiful terrace. Pleasant service. Lovely wine list. And the food was amazing. Mediterranean influenced (at least the dishes we had were) and it was better than many desitnatikn restaurants. Go for a good selection to share from because the food is so tasty. It looks great too. On a summers day the terrace is beautiful. I will be back asap to thos cracking place.

We ate at the restaurant twice. The first time was really good, service was great and the food was was delicious. The second time, a waiter threw-up (actually vomited!) whilst he was carrying plates near us. The meal started off well with delicious small snacks and starters, but unfortunately after that, it all went downhill! Not because of the food itself, but the experience and restaurant management's attitude. One of the waiters stood in the middle of the restaurant dining room (with customers still eating around him) and projected his VOMIT outward while still standing there... I couldn't believe what I was seeing!!! The worst thing was that the restaurant staff didn't seem to be bothered or concerned by it, from a hygiene perspective. Nor did they check with the customers to see if customers we were OK/if there was anything they could do as a gesture. This experience raises the question of overall hygiene standards in the restaurant. VERY disappointed with the experience we had after paying for quite an expensive meal.

This inn offers plenty of outdoor seating (covered) as well as a refined indoor dining area and casual indoor dining area. Service is friendly. Recommend: treacle sponge and custard

Neat and well presented pub with rooms in the chocolate box village of Coln. My room was on the small side but clean and comfortable. As with many similar inns , room access can be a bit difficult so it's perhaps advise able to check that if problems might arise. Parking is good behind the inn which iis easy to find on the village Main Street. Cosy bar and a cooked breakfast with additional buffet items available.
