The Yew Tree Inn

We saw the sign for the pub on the A49 and decided to take a chance on the Yew Tree for a late lunch. On entering the we received a very warm welcome; we were given a choice of two good table. The pub was already busy and had nice atmosphere; our drinks order taken, they didn't have my wife's preferred wine but the Picpoul offered was excellent. Drinks arrive very quick and the waitress took our order very efficiently. We had to wait a while for our food but the staff still too care of us a brought me a second gluten free beer. The beer was served at just the right temperature in the right glass, waiting was not a problem. When the food arrived it was clear why we were waiting, the food just made from scratch; my steak sandwich on toasted gluten free bread was full of steak, perfectly cooked, the chips were super hot, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Similarly my wife's meal was as good as mine, she had a gougon sandwich. They offered us additional sauces, my wife as for more tartare sauce, the waitress came back and explained they had just used the last of the sauce but were making more but it would be 15 minutes until it was ready. My wife wasn't unhappy with this, she was very happy because the sauce was delicious, getting a hand made sauce rather than a generic sauce out of a jar showed the care they take of the food. We asked for lots of additional items but the staff were very, very helpful and smiley. It was the best pub food we have had for quite some time, we'd totally recommend the Yew Tree. Superb.

Brilliant pub - first time visiting today after Tough Mudder and the burger & chips was just what was needed - they also do gluten free options which was very much appreciated. Staff were efficient and friendly. The building itself is also lovely and the location is beautiful - would definitely recommend.
