"Beautifully restored historical hotel dating back to 15th century with original beams throughout. Quaint and charming with lovely rooms. Ours, room 1 had a modern refurbished bathroom and was a lovely size equipped with day bed, king beds, dressing table, drawers and wardrobe with ample space. Breakfast must not be missed, this is one of the best places to eat in the village with a reputation for perfect Sunday roasts. Our cooked breakfasts were delicious with lots of choice from full English, eggs royale, vegan and vegetarian options plus cereals, yogurt and granary. Decent sized car park and there are some converted barn rooms that I believe are wheelchair accessible. Lovely friendly staff. Highly recommend."

"I have ordered food from this restaurant several times now and have no complaints about the quality or price. However, the delivery service is very poor. The first time we ordered, we waited nearly 2 hours and I ended up walking to the restaurant to pick it up, only to receive a call from my wife saying the food had arrived while I was out. I tried calling to check on the order, but couldn't get through. Other reviews seem to agree with this experience. They also have a permanent advertisement for delivery drivers in the window, which might be part of the problem. It's a great curry house for collection since we are only 5 minutes away."

"I have been there three times. The food is very genuine italian and really delicious and tasty. Large menu card and great âtodays specialsâ. Prices are very reasonable. Alexander and his crew are lovely and professional and serve with a smile. The atmosphere is very cozy and inviting. Highly recommended both for business dinners and also for families."

"Booked here for Valentine's on the recommendation of a friend and it was fantastic, great food, excellent service (not constantly interrupting just let you enjoy your meal), slight mix-up with one of the orders but they sorted in it quickly and were very apologetic. Really made an effort on the ambiance and decor for the occasion, would definitely go back again."

"Posting on behalf of Wife. Humiliated in front of other diners purely for coming in with a double pram. One female member of staff pointed at newborns babies saying they can’t accommodate that ‘thing’. It’s small enough to fit through a single door so doesn’t take up much more space than a single pram! Even offered to put pram away and place chairs at the table to create more space which received huffs from staff around the inconvenience of having two sleeping babies in their chairs! Made to feel unwelcome and anxious for the duration of lunch so left swiftly within an hour. Fortunately other diners were lovely but staff are in serious need of training on how to treat customers. Numerous new mothers struggle with anxiety going out with babies and that kind of treatment of an individual struggling could have a serious impact on their mental health. Disgusting behaviour."

"I have just recently visited the restaurant with my family and the restaurant decor is very nice and appealing but I was not happy with the service from the waiting staff all of one. and the food was not upto standard. The restaurant was empty except for my family so I thought the service would be more dedicated, the food was dry and bland over cooked and caused two members of my family stomach issues. Due to my family being hungry we had to eat the food, there was items missing from our food that had to be pointed out and took time coming to our table. The mocktails were packed with ice and a small amount of juice which was very disappointing. The service could do with much improvement as the waitress did not know the menu and what to do and how to set the tables we had to request for sauces which would’ve been on the table after we made our Order. It’s the last time I would visit the restaurant again due to the food and service and asking for the managers assistance with your concerns is non existence."

"In general, my experience at the restaurant was positive. However, I have a small complaint. When I called to confirm if the venue was dog-friendly, it wasn't clearly communicated to me that dogs are not allowed in the main restaurant. Besides this misunderstanding, I had a very enjoyable experience."

"it was easy to book a table in the swan and the menu offered a suitable choice of Sunday dinners and other dishes. it was disappointing that food allergies and intolerances are not listed on the menu and no vegan options were shown. when I asked, I got a plastic folder with a vegan menu with limited choices. not really what I would expect from a restaurant of this kaliber. the food was very good and the service was also good. Unfortunately, our table was right next to two sleeping machines that ran at full explosion, making the conversation more difficult. the couple behind us heard us complain and told us that they had already complained and no acts were taken. the machines were switched off for a short time, but were switched on again. alone from this reason, although eating and service were good, I would like to come back unless I could be guaranteed a quieter table."

"The Place looks amazing. We sat upstairs on table for two near the balcony. There was 2 Light bulbs dangling at eye level on every table they blinding. Needs raising about 16 inches so you can see the person opposite you. Service started off well but half way through there was no one around to serve for more drinks had to go downs stairs twice to get drinks and give up in the end and left. aslo had to pay on the way out as no around to get the bill . It was also about 30% full not really busy. food was pricey good quality but also more like pub food options. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Food: 4 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2"

"Meal was late arriving, the chapatis looked like they were a week old and we just binned them (see photo), the poppadoms were smashed to pieces, there was a lake of ghee on the top of our lamb dish, the tarka dal was bland and...tasteless, the lettuce in the salad was brown and rotting. Very expensive and there’s much better value from restaurants in Tadworth and Banstead."

"I have walked passed this cafe several times and not noticed it, nestled next to the big Co-Op supermarket in Moseley. So, I was glad when a friend said let's meet there. It was surprisingly spacious, with a lovely ambience and a great range of goodies to eat. Freshly baked bread pastries baked onsite with a distinctively French vibe. They also offer a more extended lunch menu, plus the usual coffee variations and teas. I didn't venture out to their garden because it was drizzling with rain, but from what I could see, it looked like a nice space for warmer days. The young Black lady who served was very helpful we didn't feel pressured to leave when we were finished. I will be back! Recommended stop."

"My partner and I dined at this restaurant last night, and I personally believe it was the best Indian food I have had in years. We were warmly greeted and promptly seated at a table. We had purchased an Itison voucher (two courses for two people, with a choice of house red or white wine) which only cost us £17 total. The starters were beautifully presented and tasted delicious, setting us up nicely for our main courses. I chose the South Indian garlic chilli dish, while my husband opted for the Nepalese bhuna. Both dishes were flavorful and authentic. Since we had used an Itison voucher, we paid for the poppadoms and chutney before heading home to relax for the evening. Overall, I must say that for a restaurant that had just opened a few weeks ago, the service was friendly and the food was exceptional. Keep up the good work, Essence - we will definitely be back."

"Knowing we’d be in Coniston on New Year’s Day (2 adults and 2 children) I booked online at the Yewdale in early Dec to make sure we secured a table, anticipating it might be busy. On arrival we were met by a pleasant waiter who showed us to our reserved table in the mostly empty pub. We were slightly disappointed, having booked a table, to be in the bar area next to a big group of young men who were swearing quite a bit and acting generally laddish. Some of the talk was not something I wanted my daughter who is 7, to hear. Thankfully she was entertained by the colouring menu sheet that was kindly supplied. To be honest I thought we be put in the restaurant bit given we’d booked in advance (the bar reserved for walk ins) but it appeared closed until we were leaving about 6.30pm. Anyway we got on with it as we do as we’re not fussy and there was another family with children there too. Our second disappointment was the big sign saying ‘sorry no pizza today’. Pizza was an option for us and something we were looking forward to having visited in the summer, so this was disappointing. I’d have thought if they weren’t offering pizza they should have told us in advance through the booking system or indicated online. This reduced the menu by 50%. We ordered from the main menu and children’s menu. The children’s fish and chips was excellent and I can’t complain, it was one of the best fish I’ve seen in a child’s menu. The adults lasagne was clearly homemade and tasted ok. Better than it looked . But at 15 I’d have expected it to come with chips not just a bit of garlic bread. Or chips should have been an add on for a couple of given the size of it but they were 4.50 on top. All a bit pricey for what it was and the portion size. The biggest disappointment was the fish pie. I was looking forward to haddock, smoked haddock, salmon and prawns as indicated on the menu. Instead I basically got a bit of haddock (well white fish), a load of spinach, and some cheese mash. No sign of the prawns, smoked salmon or haddock. The buttered greens it came with were leek and green beans and filled half the plate! We didn’t stop for dessert and opted for a chocolate bar at the petrol station instead given how disappointed we were with the mains. Beer selection was good and no issues there and staff were pleasant and attentive. We will probably visit again for pizza but the pub food overall was a let down."

"Good ambience... And that's the only good thing! Food some items are ok like naan bread. But curries were bad. Especially Tikka masala was so sweet like dessert. Service was pathetically slow. Pulav rice was like yesterday's left out plain rice. Will not visit again, given there are so many other Indian restaurants around."

"Ordered takeaway with two omni family members. Particularly chose this restaurant because the menu clearly labels items as vegan but even so I am always a little wary and wanted to double check when making the order. The gentleman I spoke to was very friendly and happy to discuss the ingredients to which he was very knowledgable. The food came in good time and was delicious. Everyone was very happy. Just wish I was local so I could have this again."

"We had a delightful Sunday roast that was very satisfying, and we definitely got our money's worth. The charming little building created a cozy atmosphere, and they were kind enough to accommodate us and our dogs in a quiet area, even though it wasn't too crowded. There was also a lovely band playing, which the dogs seemed to enjoy as well!"

"Excellent dinner in her walled garden in one of the pods. A warm welcome from the always charming Baz before served on local seasonal dishes with a good selection of wines through the glass and an interesting alcohol-free cocktail for the driver. We had asparagus, crabs, cod steak all perfectly cooked before we share an anniversary drink. Special mention of the always smiling Jake who looked around us. The new Chef Jon Parry is a great addition to the Oxford food scene, try his food."
