About us

We have a riverside garden and during the summer we have a large marquee available for shelter. This, along with the Creel bar, which is a garden bar separate from the main building, can be booked for your party or business function. During the winter months we have a roaring log fire in the main bar, which has ancient wooden beams and some stone floors.

We are not a fast food or gastro pub, just a family run proper country inn with a good range of real ales, ciders wines and spirits, all kept in a fine condition by Scott and a kitchen run with great panache by Penny.

Our traditional pub food is home cooked to order by Penny and her team in the kitchen and all our meat is produced locally and is fully traceable. Our vegetables and salads are supplied by a local company and are always freshly prepared. We aim to offer a varied selection of dishes and always have special boards as well as our main menu. We are allergy aware, and are fully compliant with the new regulations which means we can provide you with the ingredients of any of our dishes. We offer gluten free choices and can cater to most dietary requirements. We offer a seniors' choice of two course lunch menus from Monday to Friday (excluding Bank Holidays) and we also have a children’s menu available.

We support the local community wherever we can, letting many local groups and charities use our facilities free of charge. We also have a small jam shop which sells jams and chutneys made by Philippa Hunter, a local lady, who gives all the profits to Macmillan Cancer Care. She generally raises well over £3000 per year by selling her produce at the Trout, and we are all immensely proud of her achievements. Penny and her late husband Bob have both been awarded the Harold Dowler award by the Fairford and District Business club for service to the community.

We also have a field at the rear of the Trout, which is used in the summer (weather permitting) as a field camp site. There are no showers or electric hook up, but it is the ideal place for a peaceful night beneath the stars.

Good Sunday lunch. Plenty of roast beef and vegetables. Service friendly and efficient though seating a bit cramped. Good parking and beer garden by the river to use in better weather.

Booked for a festive meal with a friend. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about the entire evening. The food was delicious. The portions were large. The desert was amazing. The service was spot on. The price was perfect. The atmosphere was so relaxed and comfortable. I think a return trip is on the cards once we get Christmas out of the way. Thank you for a great memory.

8 of us had our lunch here yesterday, and we all agreed that this place is going to take some beating!!! Huge portions, all fabulously prepared, and quite possibly the best roast potatoes I've ever had! Completely faultless in every way. £18.00 for a meal of that calibre is an absolute bargain. Wonderful building, full of character, really efficient and friendly staff, and amazing food. You really need to treat yourself and eat here, you will not be disappointed. A solid 10/10.

The food here was out of this world! I had the beef stew with dumplings and they were the lightest dumplings I've ever tasted. My husband had curry and he couldn't stop raving over it. There was plenty of it. The atmosphere and service was very good too. It's a pity we live so far away as I reckon it would your local.
