The Pilgrim Pub

This is certainly a great find as a restaurant pub. Set in quite a pretty village it does have an entry in the Michelin guide for the food and it is easy to see why. We booked for Sunday lunch at 13:00 and expected the place to be very busy, it wasn't. However, over the two and a half hours we were there it filled up without becoming too full to enjoy. There are not that many covers, I counted about 20 but I didn't look round everywhere in the pub. There is also quite a large area with seats to lounge in and have a drink. They do have some snacks at the bar but it seemed to be mainly chips and bread from what I could see. They have a small but nice selection of real beer and cider which they were happy to provide a taste of. The wine list looked quite standard fare but nothing to be excited about. The food is a different matter. The selection for Sunday lunch was small but covered all the bases, beef, lamb, sea bass and vegetarian cottage pie. The starters provided a similar small but excellent selection. Between us we covered the ham hock turine and mushrooms on toast. Both excellent and quite filling. Other than the one vegetarian we all plumped for the beef. It was rib eye and very well cooked and rested. One of the party thought it looked a bit rare but they still managed to finish it. Roast potatoes were also excellent and I liked the carrots though one of the party thought they were too sweet. We were all too full for any desert. All in all a great meal in a friendly pub restaurant. We also spotted there was a beer garden that looked very good. Probably makes this place packed on a summer weekend. On the list to go back to when in the area.

I had the best Sunday lunch EVER here. The pub is so cosy and nicely decorated, the staff were friendly and the food was amazing. We had the lamb and the beef, both were melt-in-your-mouth delicious, the roast potatoes were the perfect texture and a good amount, the Yorkie pud was enormous and tasty, very generous amount of gravy and the carrot mash was so unique! We even ate all the peas. The desserts were excellent too, especially the chocolate cake. Wish I could go back every Sunday.

Started the evening with a drink outside in their lovely garden with a view! It was hard to choose from the menu, everything sounded delicious. We chose 4 dishes to share, the food was outstanding. The staff were friendly. Once again, a lovely evening at The Pilgrim

Great relaxed atmosphere with really hugh quality delicious food and friendly staff.

Great food but the pub is loud and used as a proper pub as well as for quality food dining. The two uses are not good bed fellows. The food is excellent but expect a loud drinking culture as the background.

We enjoyed our meal in this lovely pub. The food has good quality and they are quick and efficient. They have a woodburner, very cosy. They also have parking at the back so you don't need to worry much about parking space. It wasn't full this day, not sure if it gets full eventually.

What can I say the food was amazing. Not a surprise really considering it is a Michelin rated pub. They grow a lot of their own produce. The food just melted in your mouth on each bite. It was delicious 😋 We did an impromptu visit about a week ago and decided to eat outside, despite being a little windy. Lovely views up near the slight hill out the back. Was told they had a small festival a few years back and can imagine it was a great atmosphere. Each area, inside and out was unique and cosy. They had an outside court area, gazebos with lots of lavender nearby, cosy fireplace and various nooks and crannies. The staff were soo helpful. Felt very guilty that they had to keep coming out all the way to serve us. Have added it to our Favourites and will definitely be going back.

Second time eating here and didn’t disappoint. Lovely pub, friendly staff, and great vegetarian options.
