The Bathurst Arms

The food was excellent for our lunch time meal and birthday celebration for 88 year old, the crumble was the best ever and everything was absolutely amazing the welcome, the service and the food will definitely be going there more often. Thank you the staff at the Bathurst Arms.

My husband and I were looking forward to a great Sunday lunch yesterday after a long walk. Unfortunately it was the worse lunch we have had for a long time! I had the Stilton mushrooms to start, they were swimming in oil and I couldn’t taste any Stilton, hubby had the salmon which looked good just served with a stale slice of French bread. We both had the beef, I had to leave all of mine, firstly I couldn’t cut through it, I had so much fat on my plate and secondly it was red raw, don’t think it saw the inside of a cooker! Luckily the veg and roast potatoes were nice but the gravy was so tasteless, as if every fat from every joint was mixed in it! The young girl that served us was so slow. She asked us if we would like to see the desert menu, 10 minutes later she gave us one! I would have liked the crumble as I was still hungry but we never saw her again! So after 15 minutes we paid the bill of “£97” and left! Such a shame as it has the potential of being a great pub, but management need to sort the job out! We won’t be returning!

I spent many visits to my Auntie’s house in North Cerney from 1974 onwards. The Bathurst Arms was a big part of our visits and it was a wonderful return to spend a night in the Hotel itself. it could not have been more welcoming, warm and friendly. our room was just what we wanted, with all the nice touches . comfortable, clean, cosy. We had reserved dinner,great menu, and our food was lovely. in the meantime i met a few of the locals, and chatted about my time there. they were a good bunch and had recollections of people I’d known. the beer is well kept, as was the wine. Breafast was perfect, beautifully set out , fresh ingredients and delicious. The staff are excellent, very efficient and helpful. The owners have been there for less than a year, and , they are doing a great job. we felt really good about our visit, thank you . we will return in the summer, so Jasmine, i promise to buy the guys a drink . steve and lyn it’s always about the people.
