The Clanfield Tavern

Came for lunch without a reservation and were immediately given a table in the pretty restaurant area. Great Fish Chips and Pizza, plenty of choices for beer, lager, cider, wine, spirits and softs. Great food, fab service, warm welcome, pretty village setting.

Had a lovely Sunday roast here , Roast beef for him and I had the Pumpkin and Mushroom Wellington with Stilton . Both came with all the trimmings and cauliflower cheese. Sticky toffee pudding and Coffee Crème Brûlée for pud , equally tasty. Great service and a lovely traditional old pub.

Sweet old fashioned pub and friendly atmosphere, but the food is virtually inedible! Tempora squid was actually thick rock hard burnt batter. Koftas full of oil and tzatziki was tasteless and wet like it had been frozen. Suracha chicken was super dry and tasteless. We tried to gently mention all of this with no fuss but didn't get an acknowledgment and a full bill even though we sent most of it back! Voir le carte

I don't often stop at this restaurant, usually just for drinks, but this time I decided to have a meal. Some may say that the mains are a bit expensive compared to a local pub, but we found it to be good value overall. The pork chop and pizza were delicious, the gardens were nice to sit in, and the inside was cozy and quaint. The toilets were very clean, the staff was friendly, and the service was quick. What more could you ask for?

We had been to another pub near here whose kitchen we discovered shut at 7.45pm! As it was a birthday celebration and we had 6 people and 4 dogs, we were wary who could have us. The Clanfield Tavern were extremely accommodating, lovely hosts and served us a delicious meal even though they had 50plus bikers visiting that evening, unlike the other riverside pub down the road, they were extremely accommodating and we will definitely be returning

I ordered a pint of Pedigree beer that looked flat, so I refused it. The next customer also asked for the same beer, but they were told it was off. The menu at the restaurant did not match what was on the website. The haddock and chips were mostly batter and overcooked, as were the chips. We also ordered the sea bream, which was quite dry and overly salty. Nobody came to check if everything was alright, and the table was very sticky. I had a great experience last year, but unfortunately, I wouldn't go back again. Voir le carte

First ones in for lunch today so not busy, staff were friendly but the food was very disappointing. I ordered a £28 steak medium, which came pretty much raw. Had to send it back. Peppercorn sauce was like milk, with no flavour or thickness. They did redo my meal but by the time it arrived my wife had been finished for 10 mins. I sent it back and got them to take it off the bill. This has always been a really good place for lunch, so having not been for a few years thought we’d give it a try how disappointing and won’t got back. And like others have said, no one checked if we were ok and had to get the waitresses attention to send my food back.

Not as good as it used to be! We both had the Steak which was OK, but the Pepper Sauce was a tad on the runny side. What was somewhat disappointing was that we were not asked during the course of the meal if ...everything was ok... or ...more drinks... Also, when the meal arrived, we not asked if we wanted mustard, vinegar, etc.. This might seem a little over critical, but the place was not that busy, but the staff were pleasant enough. We were charged for the Pepper Sauce, although it had not been ordered, we assumed it came as 'standard '. This was deducted from the final bill. Their website has also been changed (still has the incorrect spelling of Faringdon though) and the booking system...

We had a pleasant meal with no complaints about the food, which was very tasty. The location is nice, but our experience was spoiled by the noisy drinking crowd outside. It was hard to enjoy our meal with the loud, aggressive laughter and swearing coming from nearby tables. While we could have notified the staff, we didn't feel it was our responsibility to manage their customers. The language being used was easily overheard, and we didn't want to cause a scene. It seems that perhaps this is the type of clientele the restaurant is aiming for now, despite there being families dining there and the higher prices suggesting a more upscale establishment. We quickly finished our meal, skipped desse... Voir le carte
