Bar • “I want to shout about this place….and also say nothing and keep it a secret before it’s discovered by many!! An absolute gem. Amazing owners who have an in depth knowledge and passion for what they do, where the food and produce, matters more than the fluffing. Phenomenal food, and I mean, fantastic, along with a genuine, personable service. Without doubt, we will travel a couple of villages and make this a local, a must visit!”
Bar • “The food here is EXCELLENT and we will definitely be back.The restaurant is smart but has a nice relaxed atmosphere with friendly & attentive staff.Every dish was outstanding -Honestly can't wait to return and try all the dishes we didn't get to order.”
Bar • “We had an evening meal but not an overnight stay.Food excellent and service exceptional. We were even made aware of the optional service charge and told that it was optional…. So many places these days with mediocre or no service levels just add that charge as standard , so this was a very pleasant change. They deserved every penny of their service charge. Would most certainly return.Food & drinks: Great good.”
Bar • “Absolutely lovely hotel. Had the full English breakfast, deliciously scrumptious ?. No sign of a lamb, though. Perhaps he'll turn up for Sunday lunch?”
Bar • “Beautiful roast dinner with friends - I had the pork and LOVED all the trimmings... Big bowl of roast potatoes... Hearty bowl of cauliflower cheese... And lashings of gravy. Yum. My only criticism is that there wasn't much pork on the pork as it was so fatty, but otherwise, superb. Thanks guys - will see you soon!”

Bar • “Good food at a reasonable price but it's the staff are the real deal breakers. They were all so friendly and welcoming whenever we visited.Our go-to pub on a recent short break in Burford. A very pleasnt experience.”
Bar • “Nice cosy old style pub downstairs with a nostalgic fire place - the real deal not electric ones... Nice friendly staff. We only had drinks so couldn't comment on food but saw many happy dinners ?Worth a snug with warm tea or firey whisk on any cold night!”
“Wow. What a find. My partner and I came for dinner on Wednesday for his birthday meal and were elated at our experience. The owners and staff were incredibly warm and welcoming as was the snug area where we were seated. We felt comfortable as soon as we arrived. Personally we very much enjoy fine dining food without the pretentious atmosphere that sometimes accompanies it and The Carpenters Arms was perfect for us! The food was exquisite, Masterchef The professionals should definitely be considered if not already.Some of our most favourite things from the meal were the satay sauce from the chicken croquettes, confit duck leg and potato terrine on the duck breast dish, the crab tart, The home made bread with butter, the truffle fries, and carrot cake dessert. Highly recommend this place for special occasions and we will definitively come back to try other seasonal menus, lunch menu and afternoon tea! For sure. Thank you so much for a memorable meal.”
