Sadly not quite up to expectations. We were seated promptly on arrival and our order was taken quickly. The food that was served was of a good standard. However there were a few things throughout the meal that let the side down slightly. I ordered the bread and houmous for starter, when it arrived there was no houmous. When I questioned this I was told they didn't have any left, the waitress asked what I would like instead not a question I can answer with out being given a list of options! When we asked her to find out she came back from the kitchen saying there was no alternative, would I like some butter. Had I known all of this before ordering I would have chosen something other than brea...
Booked here as we had passed it on our way to arriving at our nearby accommodation at Epwell. searched Google and saw had good ratings. It didn’t disappoint. Short 10 minute drive to sit outside on a patio on a summers evening to great food reasonably priced with friendly service. Arancini were crisp and hot and my fish chips although a simple dish can so often go wrong. Lovely light crisp batter with fluffy chips, fish was moist flavoursome not dry over cooked as can be the case. The sea bass main was yummy too. Can thoroughly recommend the pear tart worth the wait wish we’d had two! Would recommend readily thanks guys for a lovely meal at a reasonable price
Following reviews and staying close, we popped in and was not disappointed! Greeted by a very warm, small team.. we sat outside. Initial reviews said to go for the Korean ribs starter, so we did! Both of us! Absolutely stunning, lumps of meat dropping off the rib with a delicious marinade. For main, I had the fish platter which you can have as a starter or beef up as a main. It was very well prepared; credit to the chef and kitchen team! My girlfriend had chicken flatbreads which was perfect on a boiling day and executed very well! Local ale on tap, very friendly staff and a top well executed menu. GO VISIT!!
I had pre-booked a table here, and the lady on the telephone was really polite and helpful, this seems to be the way at Wykham Arms as the whole team were helpful and very friendly. I ordered the asparagus with duck egg for starter, not expecting much as asparagus is usually luke warm, what a wonderful surprise as when it arrived it was hot, and delicious, my dog never eats the white of eggs but gulped a bit down. The fish and chips that I had for main course was equally delicious and the batter so very light, and tasty, the fish was lovely. All in all I could not fault Wykham Arms at all.

Christmas meal to meet up with family. There was 11 of us, fish and chips were excellent lovely crisp batter and not greasy, we all had something different, the only starter that was disappointing was peppers that were roasted, the rest were great. The main courses sea bass, fish and chips, steaks, roast Turkey came quickly and were hot, and everyone was served all together, the service for drinks to the table was very slow, , would recommend and will be back again.
I went to this lovely country pub last week for my 50 th birthday. It was a truly wonderful experience. The food was amazing. I had roast beef dinner the meat was gorgeous. Fast professional service. The location is stunning rolling hills everywhere. Plenty of parking. The lady who looked after us was delightful. Great portions and the 27 in my part had a secluded area. Great way to end my fabulous birthday celebrations. Look forward to visiting again sometime soon
Disappointed. Although the food really was quite good the service and atmosphere were poor. I love dogs but there were lots barking throughout our meal inside. Some of the waiting team were quite unhelpful and abrupt. When we asked if we could have some dessert, without being offered a menu we were just asked ‘what do you want?’ We were made to feel difficult for asking to see one. An expensive meal that did not feel as special as it should have done.
Lovely food in a lovely setting with lovely staff! Just lovely! We both had steak which was cooked to perfection with great chips and the deserts were both original and delicious. They were very accommodating of our dog and young baby too including making my wife feel comfortable whilst breastfeeding. There’s a great deal of choice in the Cotswolds but this is definitely worth a visit.

We had a hen party meal here last weekend, we had to change the booking to Friday from Saturday at short notice and the management were very flexible in accommodating us, which as a group of 12 is quite rare. The staff were really helpful, and no funny looks at our 80s outfits! Food was great. Would recommend if you’re staying in the area!
Visited for lunch today after a tour of Hook Norton Brewery food was excellent and lovely friendly service. We were celebrating a friends 60th and they kindly decorated a plate with chocolate Happy Birthday and put a candle in his dessert. Would highly recommend!
