"First night of a long weekend in Rode looking after a couple of chocolate Labradors, we were able to sit and eat without the dogs being a problem. Me and my life like real ale and they had a couple of choices from Butcombe brewery, the ale was kept and served well. The menu was great and they helped my wife who is dairy free and marked down all of the items on the menu that were, or could be made, dairy free, great service! When our food came it was lovely, well presented and tasted awesome. They are actually booked out most days so we were lucky to get in, we tried to book for Sunday lunch which they managed to squeeze us in, so we are looking forward to going back for this. Highly recommended but try to book your table in advance by a few days at least so that you’re not disappointed."

"I have not stayed here , but would love to. The service and environment was just perfect for a family Sunday lunch and we had a great time exploring this historic pub. We were in the dungeon which sounded ominous but turned out to be a warm, welcoming ambient room for larger tables if guests. The menu offered a really good selection, very important as some of our party were vegetarian pescatarian. I can recommend hand on heart this is one of the loveliest pub experiences I have had in the UK for as long as I can remember. Shame I only have personal pics . Food drinks: Excellent !"

"We really enjoyed our stay here for a weekend. Very clean room and we were lucky enough to have an ensuite with a separate bath and shower. We had dinner in the pub downstairs on the first night and it was delicious. Unfortunately we were too late to put in a breakfast order for Monday morning as we got back late on Sunday evening (after 5pm). But there was a good farm shop breakfast nearby. All the staff were very helpful and accommodating and we felt very welcome. We would definitely stay again if we are back in the area."

"Christmas day lunch needs to be a bit special and when you have reserved a table at £95 a head you cannot help but feel nervous that you have made the right choice. We had no need to worry. Expecting a good quality pub type meal we were surprised to be served a meal more akin to fine dining but not stinting on the quantity of the food unlike many top class restaurants. The meal kicked off with an 'amuse bouche ' of roast celeriac veloute on poached apple, roast hazelnuts, chestnuts and crispy rice, served at at the table. Delicious! Starters followed, again beautifully presented on the plate, Duck and pork terrine for me and beetroot and poached apple for my wife. Then a really nice touch. Before the mains, we were presented with a wine glass containing a boule of lychee sorbet and the waiter topped it up with prosecco. Having cleared our pallets the main courses arrived, turkey for me and lamb for my wife, again cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. The meal was rounded off by a good selection of desserts, both traditional and old favourites, We were well satisfied, in fact we had no room for the mince pies and coffee that we were offered. Service charge was automatically put on the bill, but for me that was no problem as I would have happily added it myself. The waiting staff were excellent and helped make the whole experience special. Thank you all at The Poplars."

"The recent renovation of The George's interior has been mostly positive, with one notable exception - the excessive number of doors. This results in a constant stream of people coming and going, creating a chilly dining experience. Despite this, the food was very good, though not always served hot enough, and slightly expensive. The white wine is never properly chilled, and the service can be hit or miss depending on the staff working that day. One consistent issue is the view from certain tables facing the kitchen - a fluorescent light, worktops, and tiling are not in line with the historical charm of the restaurant."
