"We are so lucky that this our local! From the moment Donna and Alex took on The Overdraught we instantly felt welcome! We love it's rustic feel, the staff are always so friendly and you can guarantee that you'll make friends with the regulars! We come here for date nights, catch up with friends and family and most recently had our gender reveal party here which was really special. The choice of drinks is superb and the food is always delicious! Whether it be a basket meal, tapas, the specials board or Sunday roast you are guaranteed to be going home happy and full! 100% recommend this to anyone new passing through and have already raved about The Overdraught to our friends and family. Still absolutely superb and we have been coming here for the last 2 years!!"

Fantastic family run village pub with great selection of beers and fabulous menu. Recommend the tapas selections, sharing boards and there's usually something special on the specials

Dropped in for a spot of lunch. Terrific find. Food is simple, but good and well priced. It's a small place but nicely appointed. Nice atmosphere. The locals are very friendly. Also has a good sized car park.

Stopped for lunch today. Loved the small plates menu. We had chilli and garlic prawns (comes with bread), duck spring rolls (comes with housing sauce), and crispy shredded chicken (comes with garlic mayo and a sweet chilli sauce) . All were lovely. I'm definitely going back.

Visited with my whole family, 15 in all, we pre ordered as such a large group. Lunch was excellent and served in good time so everyone was eating together! Puds were brilliant and massive portions too. Great chef Alec, amazing front of house team Donna and staff. Highly recommended Village pub.

This is a traditional small village pub with minimal internal seating for diners but lots of outside space. If this pub wasn't recommended to me, I would have just waked past. The food was AMAZING, was reasonably priced, people were very friendly, service was great, and we have already booked a second visit.

Popped in today for some lunch and beer and as usual had the best time. I’ve been here before and the food is just incredible, so much more than you would expect! I had the mozzarella dipper burger and a pint and it was perfection! The burger was juicy and fresh, the mozzarella dippers were cheesy and to die for

At the weekend we had a family gathering of 29 made up of adults and children to celebrate my mums 93rd Birthday at The Overdraught. Donna and her staff were lovely and couldn’t do enough to make sure we were happy. I had the roast Pork and mum had beef both of which were excellent. My sister in law had the lamb and to quote “that worked perfect and great food” What more can I say except thank you Donna

We visited The Overdraught when staying nearby at Brickett Wood and not fancying the chain pub for food. They offered several home cooked meals, the two we had were excellent. The landlady was fantastic she never stopped and we were well looked after from the minute we walked in. The locals were all friendly and the pub has a great atmosphere, like all good community pubs should. Would recommend for food and a few beers. They had a cask ale on the hand pull and a selection of lagers and spirits as well.

"Yammin-Yummy says. ... 5 stars ... also a rarely awarded- 'beezybonus'. . . now, where do I begin to begin with such an amazingly appealing selection of freshly prepared foods that one would naturally expect that, already cooked, sitting, waiting for the next hungry expected customers. this can sometimes cook up to 10-20-50mins before they are placed in front of them. not here. freshly cooked. now this beautiful example of a traditional 'fish chip love affair, established over generations of Friday nights, was beautifully designed to tell their mouth, tonge taste panties, please attach their belts, and then it is about them an incredible arbor ride. ... one who seems to go up just as once they decided what's going in their mouth first (at least the crispy tail end) begins their incredible journey up; as their eyebrows increase during thinking, omg that 's sooo different good, light, crispy teig as I've never tasted in my 37 years since the beginning in the food industry. And then I made the mistake of dipping my squid in the homemade tartaric acid sauce. that is when the 1st massive fear happened, as I thought, oh my days; the better then mean, re-entry, deeper, actually cure my wrist action, to ensure maximum absorption of this sweet/creamy/tart/caper filled taste, as I reached for a chip to accompany, strengthen the excellent experience I thought stupid would be a 'standard thing'. Now I took care of you like this, but I have seen on my chips a few each mouthful was an experience, depending on how I stacked the fork, hahahaha. the fish was so fresh that I was looking on my teller sand. ... to dedicate a joy to each chip. ... the muddy heaps, normally warmed, not microshaft to a mass-hotter-then-the-sun, went a tasty bite, and quickly also, for once. the lemon shattered haddock had to be tied to the plate, because this teig was so light that it almost raised to the deck. but as soon as this handmade tasty tartaric acid sauce meets, any responsible 'handler-of-the-fork', wants to make sure that its only trajectory can be swallowed in their waiting swallow. It was so good, I couldn't stand to leave a single diesel and with this tartaric acid sauce, which even made a bulky chip, was nothing left, I was ashamed to ask the cook the recipe for 'this sauce', as he made such a light oil-free beautiful teig. the staff is very attentive, courteous, with a beautiful large sitting area also. get yourself here quickly bungalows to make an ordinary experience, in an excellent exciting eating expedition into a court that we all know so well, but so different. ... enjoy."
