Would highly recommend it, food /service is first class and accommodation is definitely 5 star. Shame we only stayed 1 night

Wonderful place to visit and the food was really good , very welcoming and warm atmosphere and I was looked after well by the staff. Definitely visit again.

We were visitors from Australia. Best fish and chips ever, lovely setting, staff were wonderful, enjoyed our day out with our Sister, after visiting Highclere house where Downton Abbey was filmed. We were originally from Whitchurch prior to our move to Australia.

We had pre-distillery visit lunch which was superb. Food was fresh and well made, and staff were delightful and very helpful. My friend was very impressed with the quality of the disabled toilets. Thank you for a lovely lunch experience 😁

We had a lovely family lunch at the WDI on Easter Sunday, the scallops were meltingly delicious, the roast beef left the teenage boys drooling and full (and that takes some doing) and the bright green beer caused great amusement. Very friendly welcome, excellent waitress service at the table. We will definitely make the journey from Bristol to come again. Tx.

We got here very late towards the end of the service, after our tour of the local famous distillery down the road. they were happy to serve us, which made our day as the food and setting is delightful, lovely friendly staff.

Very good food. Not a microwave in sight. Had the steak ciabatta, cooked rare as I requested. Proper chips. Busy lunch time but attentive service. Very enjoyable dining experience. Najeeb

Unscheduled first visit today, after a visit to the Bombay Sapphire Distillery.....

Staff very helpful/friendly.

The food was excellent and the place had a great vibe.

Overall a really good experience - Thank you :)

The lovely waitress Bea served me and she was brilliant. Her customer service was fantastic and was very professional. Her knowledge was to a high standard and was so diligent with her work. She's very polite and made my experience even better.

Thank you Bea!!!

The Sunday roast was amazing. ..duck fat roast potatoes, yummy beef and gravy. Really lovely service.

Thankyou🐰

Sunday lunch came out in all of three minutes, never had such fast service. Lovely relaxed beautiful pub with friendly staff. Car parking tight in summer , looks like they’re doing some work outside though? ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Popped in for lunch yesterday. We found a warm welcome , great ambience and a delicious lunch. Well worth the visit and we will be back.

Not the closest pub to me but by far the best. Good food, real ales and friendly staff... All boxes ticked.

My partner booked for us to stay here for my 30th birthday as I'm a massive fan of the book and film and all things bunny� we used the watership down inn as a base and we went walking over the downs where my fiance proposed to me. Our stay here was perfect. The staff are lovely the beds are comfy the rooms are clean and modern and the food is great. We will definitely be returning, such a beautiful part of the country.

Marvellous pub. Great food, good beer, friendly staff. A favourite of mine for a long time. Thank you Watership Down

Lovely pub, amazing food and brilliant staff, would highly recommend!!!

Lovely place with lovely staff. The food was delicious and the room we stayed in was very clean and comfortable. After visiting The Bombay Sapphire Distillery this was the perfect way to end our day!

Just had a really fab stay at The Watership Down Inn and would thoroughly recommend it. Chose to stay here with friends whilst visiting The Bombay Distillery. perfect location, just a 10/15 minute walk away. Very welcoming, fantastic room and excellent food. A special thank you to Ewan for his marvellous service which made our stay even more enjoyable. If you are visiting the Distillery I urge you strongly to book a night here, sign up to The Gin Masterclass and enjoy it fully. Will definitely return. Thank you, John, Julia, Pete & Jane x x x

Just called in for a quick lunch on Wednesday. The pub was packed but space was found for us at the bar. We had both variants of the club toastie and declared them the best sarnies we had ever eaten. We will be back!

Just Been for a Sunday Lunch , Excellent food ,well done Chef and very friendly Staff .Cannot Fault it .The Beef was so good .so were the vegetables and great desserts :-) We shall be back ,thank you :-))

Had lunch here and sat on the terrace. Food was fabulous and service by the young guy serving was great. The terrace area was very pretty.

Had lunch (steak burger). The burger was cooked to perfection (it melted in the mouth) with some of the tastiest chips I've ever had with no superfluous garnish... The staff were helpful and very nice... 5* :-)

Great little place, service & food both of a good quality.

Great food...lovely friendly staff. Saw a beautiful Kite over the fields, special treat as we love birds of prey. Thanks all :)

Great food and ambience :-) Also great staff who were able to provide me with numbers for taxi firms when we realised there were no taxis at Overton.

Good food, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. And I’m relied informed a very good beer selection.

Friendly polite staff and good service. Food was great as well.

Freshly cooked food and lovely service; very accommodating. I will definitely go back.

Food was great, staff good. Had lunch here before going on the Bombay Sapphire Gin tour!

Food is always amazing and staff are very friendly. I would highly recommend.

Excellent food, with lost of lovely combinations of flavours into the dishes, very nice presentation. Really recommend to anyone.

Excellent food and great service will return with friends more often

Called in on spur of the moment...great ambiance and the sour apple and peanut brittle desert was to die for!

A lovely pub that has been lovingly decorated and great food!

The sheepskin on the chairs were a fun touch but wished they had them in the conservatory where we were!

First visit for a somewhat local (Thatcham), reasonable Beer selection, Food varied and tasty; staff pleasant and attentive without being overpowering. Will definitely return.

Came here for lunch with a group of friends en route to the Bombay Sapphire Gun Distillery. I had a very tasty beef baguette. The staff were efficient and friendly. An excellent place to come before or after visiting the Distillery

Called up from the Bombay sapphire and managed to get a table at short notice. It was very busy when we arrived but got served very quickly and had our orders taken. Only one choice for vegetarians unfortunately which was a grilled halloumi salad which was ok. My husband had the mixed roast lamb & beef which he said was very nice.

The meals came out quite quickly seeing as they were so busy.

Perhaps a little more choice for vegetarians as I would have been stuck if I hadn’t liked halloumi!!

Lovely pub and great food with amazing terrace

Probably the worst roast Beef I've ever had. It came out swimming in blood. It was changed and this time it was full of fat and gristle. And they couldn't clear the table quick enough. It was like a conveyor belt.

Would highly recommend it, food /service is first class and accommodation is definitely 5 star. Shame we only stayed 1 night
