What CotswoldFoodie111 likes about The Victoria Inn:
This pub is truly unique and cozy! With its low ceilings, moody atmosphere, wood burning fires, and old-fashioned candlesticks on the tables, it offers a special vibe. Despite its quirks, the food was absolutely delicious. We were pleasantly surprised to discover they offered a meatless roast with plenty of veggies and gravy. The Sticky Toffee Pudding was a highlight. Our meal was reasonably priced compared to other... View all feedback. What Lexi Beatty doesn't like about The Victoria Inn:
To make matters worse, when we arrived, they couldn't find our booking even though we had confirmed it with them two days prior. The server was unfriendly throughout the entire meal and seemed inconvenienced by our presence.

Nestled in a scenic location, this pub offers a charming atmosphere with cozy décor and a dog-friendly policy. While the outdoor seating enhances its appeal, many patrons feel the menu prices are steep for the quality received, with dishes like fish and chips and burgers often criticized for their presentation and execution. Complaints about unfriendly service and unexpected service charges have surfaced, detracting from the overall experience. However, some diners rave about the delicious Sunday roast, fresh ingredients, and warm service. Despite its enchanting vibe, numerous customers are hesitant to return, citing a disconnect between value and quality.
