Best KPortal Reviews
We had a nice Sunday lunch here during a visit to Castle Combe. The seating is comfy, the bar area was warm and cosy, and the food was delicious and delivered promptly after ordering even though we arrived right after the pub opened. Wadsworth pubs always have great beer on tap and this was no exception. A great spot to fill up after a countryside walk. I haven't reviewed the rooms because we didn't stay!
It's a nice reprieve from the cold; has nice, working fireplace. More importantly, staff were warm and welcoming.
The food we ordered is good for two so it was nice that we actually decided to share. Best of all, it's DELISH! The Broccoli and Cheddar soup is a winner.
They also have treats ready for dogs. ????????
Despicably poor service and extremely rude staff. Especially the tall male bartender. Asked for a taster of a local cask ale - refused. Asked to pay for a half pint by card - refused and mocked. Asked to book a lunch - refused. Bartender then offered a taster to another white male. Enough said. Pub across the road called ‘The Castle Inn’ is far more pleasant. Don’t waste your money here.
Terrible interaction, I would highly avoid.
I walked in on a lunch time during an Easter bank holiday, for the village being so busy at this time, I was expecting the pub to be equally as busy. However, after a brief walk around I discovered there was plenty of seating. I approached the bar and spoke to a very unpleasant bartender who didn’t seem interested in greeting me or helping me. When I asked how long the wait time on food was, he proceeded to carry on finishing polishing his glass, placed it down, walked over, looked me in the eyes in an intimidating manner and said “they cook it, and when it’s ready, they’ll bring it out”. After I said how unhelpful that is and said goodbye, turned around and walked away, he then shouted through a couple of customers at the bar and said “when it’s ready, it’s ready”.
Needless to say that even without eating here it left a bad taste in my mouth. Rude, unwelcoming and unpleasant experience. There are other options in the village that will be more welcoming to serving paying customers.
Really rude female bar tender..Made it very obvious we weren’t welcome. Made us feel greatful we were allowed in with a scowl, annoyance at being asked for a taster: We drank quickly & left. Really unpleasant visit to such a beautiful location .
Didn’t have food so can’t rate it. We were staying in the Castle Inn for a weekend break and went to the White Hart to watch the England v Wales 6 nations match. The Guinness was outstanding! The room with the TV was cosy. Enjoyed the match with a fellow Welshman who lives in Castle Combe and other locals and (semi locals - holiday homers). Nice friendly atmosphere and people. But here’s the rub. It is clearly they are tourist weary. I didn’t witness rudeness I’ve read about in other reviews, but I could see the potential in the staff to have low tolerance to unsure tourists. And let’s be honest CC is one of Englands most prolific tourist traps. Stunningly gorgeous, but no longer a hidden gem. I can understand local frustration but for businesses, you can’t bite the hand that feeds either. For us a great experience. My photos are from the village. I’ve digitally erased tourists!
Walk-in pub restaurant serving very tasty home cooked food. Steak & Ale pie on the Specials board was delicious. Good service, great little stop in this beautiful little village.
We visited The White Hart to see if we could spot the rude lady. Our party of two were unanimous in who we thought it was. However, the gentleman that served us was pleasant and helpful. For that reason, I see no issue in awarding five stars.
