Malswick House - Forest of Dean

We visited this restaurant four times while staying nearby in our caravan. The staff were welcoming and very friendly, even our dog was greeted by a Siberian Husky at the door! The food was all homemade and delicious, ranging from pesto and Mediterranean vegetables on a Ciabatta, to steak and chips, with fish and chips in between. Every dish was beautifully presented and served with a smile. We will definitely return if we are in the area again.

Had the worst meal ever last night. I had to send back my inedible steak, replacement one only marginally better. Other meals were uninspired and nothing like the website menu. There are plenty of much better pubs locally, upset we picked this one!

Outstanding service. Outstanding food. The ambience was perfect for the occasion. Thoroughly recommended

I had a wonderful lunch with friends at this recently renovated pub. The menu had a great variety of options and the food surpassed typical pub fare. The steak, venison, and ale pie with hand-cut chips was fantastic, and the hand-cut home roasted ham, egg, and chips were cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Two adorable dogs stayed in the bar area and did not disrupt the dining experience.

My husband and I visited late Sunday lunch time with another couple and our baby. We were greeted by two gorgeous dogs who once they had said their hellos went back to sleep and we didn't see them again. We were disappointed they weren't serving Sunday lunch but I believe this is to be added to the menu soon. We all ordered different mains and were all really happy with our choices and the portion sizes were very generous. The puddings were also lovely. We found the staff very friendly and helpful. There didn't appear to be a baby change facility but that would be my only (very minor) criticism and we will be back
