The Sun Inn at Hook Norton

The staff in the pub were nice and friendly. My husband and I stayed here overnight for a trip to the local brewery, we had a bite to eat before our tour, which was very nice, we checked in around 4.30 pm, we were shown to our room which was very small, the mattress on the bed in room 2 is seriously passed its sell by date, it was really soft and you could hear and feel the springs, I really should have asked if we could change rooms, we had dinner in the evening, the pub was busy, the menu was a bit limited and by 6.30 pm there was no pie of the day left, my husband chose chicken thighs wrapped in pancetta with an onion sauce, unfortunately he found it too salty, when he mentioned it to our waitress she said she didn't like it either!! the fish and chips I had were ok, usual stuff, our starter and dessert were nice. After a poor night's sleep we went into breakfast, ( breakfast didn't start till 9.00 am) we were shown to a table and offered the menu, we were not offered any fruit or orange juice, we ordered coffee and our breakfast order arrived, my scrambled egg was salty, my husband asked for eggs on toast, the eggs and toast came separate, he was then offered some butter, I asked for some brown toast, both the toasts were only done on one side, we also had to ask for some brown sauce and some jam for the toast, these were brought to us when requested but if should be offered really, there was small cartons of orange juice in our room and were were told there was yogurt and milk etc., in a small fridge at the bottom of the stairs from the bar to help ourselves but this was not really acceptable ( how people ate continental breakfast in the room was a mystery there was no room to sit and eat) sorry but overall it was a very disappointing stay, some upgrading is seriously required.

Lovely little pub in Hook Norton with the bus stop conveniently over the road, so great if you are coming from elsewhere. Staff and food were lovely and they had a good range of drinks available too. Would definitely come back if in hook Norton again.

We stayed for one night and had an evening meal. The young male staff member who greeted us and showed us to our room was welcoming but the female staff were not very professional and their lack of communication did not provide us with a good experience. The food was okay. The room and continental breakfast were fine.

We visited the Sun Inn for dinner and had amazing and delicious steaks. The atmosphere at the inn was very friendly and welcoming. It is a very successful village pub with loads of activities organised each week. We also enjoyed an informative gin pairing evening at the Sun with tastings of tonics from a company called Double Dutch, formed by a pair of twins from Holland. It was a good paring education for us.

The room was fantastic clean good size the beds were spotless and very comfortable good Continental breakfast we would definitely come back the grounds and garden very tidy very nice garden to sit and relax it was only 15 minutes away from diddly squat farm

The food at the Sun Inn was generally very good and the staff were friendly and efficient. The bathroom in my room was smelly and the extractor noisy. The bed was too soft and I could feel the individual coils in the mattress. The breakfast part of the B&B was a cereal packet in the room which was very disappointing. I had to pay the night before departing because no person able to take payment was in attendance before 10am. It is hte food that has earnt this place a 3 star rather than 1 or 2.
