A vine-covered terrace looks out over Slad Valley, and Laurie Lee, who made this Cotswolds pub famous in "Cider with Rosie," is buried just up the road. The kitchen runs a short, seasonal menu driven by what's growing nearby, with a bar snacks list that takes sardines on toast more seriously than most restaurants take their mains. It ranked fourth on the Top 50 Gastropubs list in 2026.
