New Inn at Coln

We came for lunch last Saturday. We were warmly welcomed and settled in a lovely sheltered sunny spot outside. The pub is beautiful in a peaceful village setting and we enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere. The food offering was not too extensive which meant that every single dish was exceptional. Burgers were an elevated experience. Loved the quirky patterned plates! The guys working there that served us were really nice. Afterwards we enjoyed walking around by the beautiful picturesque river. Thank you for a lovely day!

Walked from Fairford to Coln St Aldwyns for lunch. Food and atmosphere very good. Great selection of small plates, all good value. Fresh ingredients. Roaring open fires. Superb manager Sophie, treated us kindly, above and beyond. Highly recommend.

A mixed experience. We arrived before the 3pm check-in time but it was made very clear we would not be looked after until the allotted time. There was no suggestion of having a drink etc, just told 3pm is the time. We decided to look to sit down and some staff were not helpful in accommodating without a reservation despite there being available tables. We were booked for the new years dinner which was overpriced for what was served. In addition the service was rushed, the staff inexperienced (opening wine at the bar and not opening/tasting at the table) and we were informed 15 mins before our 2 hour time slot they needed the table back. We also asked to slow down service between courses which wasn’t accommodated for. The location is lovely and it has the potential to be a really welcoming spot but the staff really let it down. Breakfast was good but deemed a ‘foodie’ place, I agree with other comments the lunch/dinner menu was tailored to burger eaters with little alternative.
