The Okeover Arms

Very impressed with the range of food available. Mostly Indian fare but menu includes all the usual pub grub favourites for those with a more timid taste!!! Great food at a reasonable price. Highly recommended and would definitely visit again.

Went with my family for dinner with my two kids at the weekend. The food we had was really good quality and you could tell it was all freshly prepared. The landlady was extremely friendly and gave our dog lots of treats, there was a great atmosphere and seemed to be very popular, All of the staff were very friendly and checked if everything was okay which it was (more than okay). I had the lamb burger which was delicious and I will definitely be returning.

Only gave a 3 because the staff were nice. It's sad I didn't post a good review on my previous visits as they are normally very good. As for this time... they were not especially busy but tried to make out they were fully booked. Hardly any food was coming out of the kitchen. We had to wait an hour for our food after 3 rounds of drinks and asking when the food would arrive. When it did it was obvious the roast dinner was microwaved. Chewy meat, 1 carrot, one parsnip and a flat yorkshire pud that would have been fine if it said pancake. As for the tandoori chicken... a small leg of roast chicken with less meat than a small breast of... sort of 2 bites and it was gone but the worst bit was it was plain chicken with a splash of non indian seasoning added to the skin that offered no taste at all. Also asked for no veg beyond the chips so they added minted onions which I can't have. A half reasonable portion of chips would have done rather than an amount you could almost count on one hand. Could you spare them? And they have put their prices up. They were nice enough when we complained but honestly tried to convince me the chicken was marinaded. Only if the marinade was water. I have been to enough indian restaurants to know what tandoori chicken looks and tastes like. Admittedly they offered a curry sauce to go with it which was okay but I had eaten all the chips and had cold chicken by the time it turned up. I didn't want to send it back as I figured I would be waiting another hour for it. We won't be back anytime soon. One piece of advice. If you have a chef or kitchen problem, just be honest about it and we can go elsewhere. Don't make people wait an hour when you aren't actually that busy and then provide poor value and poor food and try and convince the customer it's something it's not. You only hurt your own reputation and loose customers.

The staff are exceptionally lovely- the location is dreamy, the rooms were fantastic and the food was amazing- will come back and gave already recommended to friends- well done to all the team - it was a lovely place to stay / sight see/ relax !

Absolutely love this pub! Such a beautiful location and lovely traditional feel, but not old fashioned. Good selection of ales, including Plum Porter which is a particular fave. The game pie was to die for, fabulous chips. But the best part was the ambience and customer service. You really need to bottle this and share with other establishments as it's so rare right now. The team are a real credit to you - friendly, fun and professional. Can't wait for my overnight stay later this month.
