Pear Olive Scratch Kitchen

OK, so second visit to the Pear Olive under the new owners. Food was excellent, again. New couple really making this one of the best restaurants around, you need to give these guys a try and support locally. We will definetley be going back with friends.

Stunning food, drinks, location and building. Ticks the box for so many types, couples, families, business meals. High quality food from talented chef, extremely friendly service, Brewboard beers superior to standard offerings all in a gorgeous country village setting with a lovely garden.

This restaurant was great before it was taken over, but the cooking now is first rate. Beautifully prepared food the goats curd, roast beetroot and radicchio starter was exquisite. Excellent cassoulet and sublime hispi cabbage. Washed down with wines from Thorne wines. Great service. Very, very easy to go back. Thank you. Speisekarte ansehen

We have been to this restaurant many times over the years but this was our first experience under the new management. We were not disappointed, the refurbished restaurant and bar area have been transformed into a comfortable and charming place to spend an evening. The food, and the standard of cooking, is outstanding. We had Stone Bass and a chicken supreme dish both excellent, beautifully cooked. We will be going again!

I was tasked with organising a dinner for 25 people. The Pear and Olive just went that extra mile to accommodate us. Nothing was too much trouble and we planned it together. The evening surpassed all expectations. The food was absolutely sublime. I have never tasted anything so good as the lamb wellington. The standard of service was exemplary, the staff just lovely. I have run out of superlatives to describe the experience, so I urge you to go and try it yourself

The new owners are certainly getting this right. My husband and I had Sunday lunch here and thoroughly enjoyed it. A little more expensive than your average pub Sunday lunch but my, was it worth it. The quality of the ingredients and cooking was outstanding. Nice to feel you are in a small establishment and not just a number in a mass produced restaurant. New owners and staff were friendly, professional and attentive without being over bearing. Will definitely go back. They also have accommodation so why not make a weekend of it Speisekarte ansehen

The Pear and Olive offers and rural and stylish setting. From the moment you arrive the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. As a starter, I was intrigued by the raw cauliflower, toasted almond and curry salad, but changed my mind. At the the last minute though, I changed back and went back to raw cauliflower and was very pleased I did. It was absolutely outstanding. The same goes for the sea bass followed by Tart Tatin. Both truly excellent. An evening meal can be spoilt by bad service, but not here. The service was every bit as good as the food. We're very pleased we live just 20 mins up the road.

This was our second Sunday lunch under the restaurant 's new owner chef. It really is a find great food, charming service and good wine. The raw cauliflower with curry flavours starter looked and tasted EXQUISITE, the english asparagus sauce gribiche was very good. The roast chicken served with seasonal vegtables, roast potatoes and yorkshire was very good sunday fare, the pan roasted stone bass on a leek spinach with mussel sauce was a really tasty alternative to the sunday roasts. For pudding we enjoyed a refreshing homemade blood orange sorbet. There was a good selection of wines by the glass and we enjoyed 2 different whites. The place has a good vibe and as word gets around, I imagine i...

Myself and my partner stayed for a weekend break and were met by Jade one of the owners and shown to annex which was beautiful and bed was extremely plush and comfortable. The kitchen area was complete with a fridge full of drinks and local milk. In the evening we dined in the restaurant and it went from being a lovely stay to an amazing one as the food was epic and I could do a separate review for on its own, suffice to say we can’t remember having a soup that was smoother and fish (Stone Bass) was incredible. There are a couple of walks within a couple of hundred metres that are really picturesque and a farm shop that is only 5-10 minute walk away that does brilliant coffee and has pop up...
