A delightful combination of tender grilled steak and succulent seafood, perfectly seasoned and served with a choice of sides.

"What a lovely country pub. The interior was such a surprise restaurant was decorated like a Tudor banqueting hall very grand. The staff were very friendly and helpful and attentive enough for us to feel well looked after. The food was freshly cooked, with good quality ingredients, served hot and tasted delicious. Overall, an excellent experience which everyone in our party thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you to all involved :"

"I had a great experience at this restaurant with their American-inspired menu. I tried the diner chicken burger, fries, cheeseburger, and a salad with a unique dressing that was a mix of ranch and another flavor. I highly recommend it!"

"super stuffed after a massive everything you can eat sushi festival. While all that they can eat is limited to 6 passages (unlimited repetitions) all 8 hot dishes (limited rounds), I must admit that the portions are fully equitable and we manage 3 passages 8 hot dishes between us 3. the sashimi was fresh and sushi was well maintained. I'll go back next time I need my sushi binding!"

"It’s our (very) local pub and has undergone several reincarnations in recent years. The new managers/owners look to be putting a lot of work into it and we have had a good report. So thought we’d give it a try for lunch as the signs say food served from 12:30 The first thing to notice is that it looks and feels cosier inside than it ever has although the Christmas decorations may have helped. A log fire being lit would have been the icing on the cake for me personally. The sole lady member of staff was very friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately lunch was a tad disappointing. The Christmas Menu was referred to but was apparently roasts only and to be honest it wasn’t clear if it was available or not. It seemed that burger and chips was the only thing on offer. Not what we’d anticipated or expected but thought we’d give it a try, as let’s face it, you can’t beat a good burger and chips. Unfortunately we didn’t get one. Supposedly we should have had coleslaw (I say supposedly as we’d not actually seen a menu) but this was unavailable so we had cheese added to the burger instead. Not a problem though. Portion size was OK. The chips were great. The burger itself, sad to say, was average at best. Having seen no menu and therefore no food prices we don’t know what the burgers cost, only what the food and drinks together cost. Overall, given the quality of it I’d say the price slipped in somewhere between ‘slightly dear’ and ‘about right’ So, first impressions of the “new” Green Dragon? Definitely worth returning for a drink for the coziness and friendliness, but the food needs to be sorted out both in terms of what is actually available, visible menus, and more importantly, quality. It’s a shame as we so wanted our inaugural visit to the pub in it’s current guise to be a perfect one. As the food was the main reason for visiting I’m afraid it’s got to lose a couple of dots on the rating"

"Review written by wife. The overall experience was good, the starters were great however there were a few things that let it down. 1) It took a while for our food to come out. 2) The drinks we ordered came out in dribs and drabs. At one point a drink for our table was given to another table. Also, we then got the same drink twice. There seemed to be a lack of communication between the waiters. 3) The food was nice, however, my husband ordered his steak and lamb to be medium well but when it came it was practically raw. He wasn’t even able to cut into it. The waitress was nice enough to take it back and have it cooked a bit more. 4) My parents food was way too salty we’re a family who like salt so for us to say it was too salty is really something. The waitress was nice enough to take it back and when it came out it was much better. 5) I had the prawn curry which was nice, it said it was a coconut lime curry however all you could taste was lime which I didn’t mind so much but after a while it was a bit sharp. 6) We called the waitress over again as my sister had ordered taco’s but she didn’t want them anymore, however when we called over the waitress she made it very clear that she was fed up/tired of having to come over to our table. She sighed before speaking and her body language clearly showed she didn’t want to be there. 7) The cocktails seemed as though they had been watered down. I got the bramble and when it came it just tasted of soda water which wasn’t great and so did my sisters cocktail. With adjustments to attitudes and service, it could be a really great place."

"We went for afternoon tea on Christmas Eve and were very disappointed. The meal consisted of processed ham, processed cheese slices, puree, and egg mayonnaise. We were only offered a selection of frozen cakes, and had to ask for tea, which was not offered. The tea selection was also lacking. The atmosphere was not pleasant, with open crackers on the window bar and a pipe with a large hole in the curtain from previous guests. The carpet under our table was covered in debris from a previous party. We paid £15 per person for a meal that we could have bought for £3 from a supermarket. We have been meeting this family for seven years but will not be returning after this experience. The staff was unfriendly and the excuses from management were unacceptable. I will be reaching out personally via email to express my dissatisfaction. This was a major disappointment and we will not be recommending this restaurant."

"I've never been to mexiko, so I don't know how authentic Mexican cuisine tastes. but whatever chimichanga served was exotic. my four-year-old loved his child's meal. enchilada that I ordered was delicious and more than enough for one like me, who is not a pecker. we have crossed the left side and my son has restored every bite to it the next day. so much that now, when we go to the xscape mall, he asks for enchiladas instead of fritten or burgers."

"The hotel was absolutely beautiful and the staff were so lovely but the only thing I have to say their was no air conditioning in the room that I had only had a small window as I was on the ground the floor and only opened a little bit but the staff were really friendly and gave me a fan . Second the dinner menu wasn’t much change everything came with vegetables or potatoes wasn’t much of a selection to choose from and not much in the way of entertainment as I was with a coach tour but on the hole was fine . Rooms: Beautiful rooms but wasn’t happy with not having air conditioning as being on the ground floor the window only opened a little bit Food drinks: Needed more choice on the Menu for dinner time as everything came with vegetables or potatoes Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 2 Hotel highlights: Great value"

"It's nice because you have to be 18 or over to enter the building. The food is great and the Sunday lunch is outstanding the staff are always friendly. You can spend time on the tables before or after your meal. I just like it there. We took our friends for Sunday lunch and although they are local it was the first time they had eaten in Clarys they thought it was great and said they would definitely eat there again, so all in all a great experience."

"Always of a good standard. Service very good. Waiters very customer focused apart from the cocktail bar staff who don’t come across quite as welcoming. Set meal for New Year’s Eve was a little disappointing. Starter platter was brilliant. Unfortunately something has happened to the butter chicken recipe and it was no where near as good as we’ve had before. The sweet could have done with being served warm in its entirety. Cold rice pudding is not normally the way we eat it. Left most of the sweet. All that said, def going back and ordering our favourite dishes. The place has been through a lot of changes. Mostly very good but need to keep an eye on the recipes and make sure any changes do not impact on quality as it did on the butter chicken on this visit. Keep up the good work!"

"Went there this weekend with my family. We ordered all of the sushi and most of the starters and tempura. The hot food was tasty tempura was light and delicious. However, the sushi was a big let down. Having grown up in Tokyo and eaten sushi all around the world I know when sushi is freshly made vs been in the fridge. Although the flavours were nice (disappointingly the jalapeños were not spicy at all) the rice was cold and dense. The food came out within a couple of minutes of ordering it. Clearly pre made, kept aside and waiting to be served probably as part of the set menus. About 10 minutes after the bulk of it was served our final plate of sushi came out which was clearly fresh (not cold or dense). This was disappointing to say the least. Sushi should always be freshly made to order. If it wasn’t in the fridge the rice needs to be prepared better. We will be back for the hot food only! The lemon cheesecake and mango sorbet were delicious too."

"Three people are two had a very good meal one had an average meal expensive in comparison to local competitors who serve a similar meal which is tastier and better value . Service was polite but not efficient, had to ask more than once for drinks or sauces with the meal despite excess staff and a quite restaurant a bit of a shame . As could of been an excellent review with a little bit of attention to detail"

"Wouldn 't recommend staying here overnight unless you absolutely can 't find anything else. It 's old, dated and needs attention. Very basic room and bathroom could 've been cleaner, heating not working. The mattress has springs that were so loud when you simply turned over. The food in the pub was okay and the barmaid was great, however the landlady is very rude and I 'm not sure if she actually wants anyone in her pub. Just one example We rang up to book a room, she says come after 12 because that 's when they 're open. We turned up at 12:30 to which we were met with check in is at 2pm . We were treated like an inconvenience but didn 't take it personally as she was rude to other punters too another couple came in to eat and after a short interaction, just left."

"Food was severely lacking in flavour, quality and general appeal. I saw this place online and looked great, although the overall customer service was of a high standard with kind and attentive waiters/waitresses, the food took us off guard. We ordered a rib eye steak (requested as medium rare but arrived extremely well done), 2x bland chicken steaks and a chewy little lamb steak, all with a far from generous helping of garlic sauce. It hurts me to see such a great cut of beef which claims to be marbled, to be disrespected by the way this was cooked. Unfortunately the excessively large cut chips were also poor company to sad looking slabs of meat that lay centrepiece to the dishes. The whole meal was served on a bed of over boiled noodles sticking to a dangerously hot plate, making the steak difficult to cut as it tries to balance itself on gelatinous pile of noodles (I would’ve much preferred they serve me a pot noodle). The overcompensating 2 inch platform of a plate that the meal was served on did no favours to the food, and the “sizzler” element seemed to only be reflected through the excess smoke and noise that went on too long. The side of veggies reminded me of an unseasoned, depressing, microwaved bowl of carrots and peas pulled through a frozen bag straight from a freezer in Iceland. The general taste and execution of this meal was extremely poor, I couldn’t recommend this establishment to anyone, the only saving grace from my experience was the cleanliness of the venues, and politeness of the staff. And as much as it pains me to say, the best part of the meal was the jarritos cola. I cannot express my disappointment enough, as I had hyped myself up all week thinking this meal would be worth the wait, unfortunately I had never been so wrong. 1/10"

"We had a wonderful experience at this restaurant with great, friendly service. The staff even brought a dog bed and water dish to our table, which we and our pooch appreciated. The menu had a lot of variety and the food was delicious (the loaded pommes were a must-try). The prices were reasonable and it was evident that the restaurant tries to cater to everyone. The restaurant is run by a husband-wife duo, with the husband as the chef and the wife managing the front of the house. They do a fantastic job. We will definitely be returning the next time we are in the Cirencester area. Thank you!"

"my man and I visited for what we thought would be a nice relaxing Sunday evening dinner in our neighbourship, as we live near. but we immediately regretted the decision. the restaurant was completely empty (and we should have left after we had seen that. it was cold inside and there was hardly personal. we ordered a bottle prosecco, which took quite a long time to arrive, and were charged £40 for a bottle canti that we suspected that they had ran and bought next to the tesco. booze is always highly marked, but at least have a brand on the hand where the customer does not know that it costs £8 at tesco. the waitress did not even pour the prosecco; she brought the bottle and we had to pour ourselves. the appetizers were well presented and tastefully. the nets (steak and lamb and sides were very average; my lamb was barely dreaming, which meant that I had to eat it quickly, so I didn't have to eat cold lamb. £220 for an average dinner with a bottle cheap super market prosecco (oh and £10 for a bottle of still water! is simply absurd. we eat in michelin star high-end restaurants quite regularly that costs £500 for two people, so this is no problem with price. I've never seen anything about food quality, environment, service, general experience. Avoid this crazy overpriced place with average life means!"
