Lamb Inn - BURFORD

Wow. I have just had one of the best meals in my life. Tiger prawn to start, trout with a green leaf side salad and coconut rice pudding to finish. I could have eaten everything twice over. Excellent service, beautiful pub and amazing food. Hope to see you again on the 30th!!

An atmospheric gastro-pub in a calm location in lovely Burford. The Sunday lunch menu when we visited was rather dominated by roast-meat-and-Yorkshire-pudding dishes, but we nevertheless ate well. Friendly service.

On a warm Sunday afternoon I decided to treat my wife to a cream tea at The Lamb, as advertised on their website. We found a table in the lounge but when I tried to order at the bar I was told they were too busy to serve 'walk-ins. ' We recently stayed for two nights at The Hare and Hounds, Westonbirt, another hotel in the group, and were not entirely satisfied. We live in Burford and have celebrated anniversaries, birthdays etc at The Lamb over many years. It is sad to see that a hotel group renowned for good service has now been taken over by a faceless company that teaches their staff to call customers 'walk-ins ' to their face. .

The garden setting of The Lamb is the perfect place to revive after strolling the main street and shops of charming Burford. Blooming gardens, sun parasols, comfortable seating and a menu that offers fresh, piquant food. I had an asparagus tart with a salad spiced with fine pickle. My husband is delighting in the seasonal rhubarb pavlova.

We were in dire need of a light lunh during a long fraught drive and dropped into The Lamb. Delighted to have excellent swiftly produced sandwiches cheese and chutney for her , smoked salmon for me. Jolly good coffee too. Lovely ambience and perfect service. Everything very clean and up to date
