We had a great meal here - good beer, great, friendly and attentive service, but its the food that really makes it. This was a repeat visit, and everything was superbly fresh, great tasting and well presented. I had the home smoked trout, which was superb, the home made corned beef looked great but I'm vegetarian, and the bitter chocolate... More

This is a very inviting restaurant and hotel. There is a lovely fireplace with a tired -looking labrador lounging infront of it in the main dining area. Food is good - and we all ordered the ox-tail casserole with stilton dumplings and mashed potato and winter vegetables which was so filling we had to skip dessert. The staff were excellent,... More

Went here for the first time, and were welcomed by the barman, which was nice, and served with a nice pint of Hooky. A glass of wine for my other half, and we sat near a roaring fire, with the super menus, as well as specials to choose from. My soup was very nice, but my girlfriends Scotch Egg was... More

Last Saturday I was invited to join in a steam rally to muster at the Gate for 09:30. I arrived early and so gladly took advantage of their breakfast offer. Bacon and eggs washed down with proper coffee we set sail (..sorry steam and some diesel) for Brailles, Whichford, Hook Norton and back to the Gate. With Hook Norton's finest... More

A great place to stay. Warm welcome, excellent food, well stocked bar with real ales and good honest value for money rooms. They also have a caravan site for tourers, with electric hook ups and toilet facilities. Breakfast is something to behold! It is also close to Vision Motorsports driving experience centre and also the lovely Chipping Norton.

I would have liked to give 3.5 stars for this pub/restaurant but of course the ratings won't allow it. My wife and I recently went for a meal whilst we were holidaying in the area. I understand that it has recently been taken over, and I think there is real potential. The beer is kept well, and the pub itself... More

My girlfriend booked us in here as part of my surprise birthday treat which included a visit to the brewery. The place was very in character with the lovely village of Hook Norton and the staff were all very welcoming and pleasant. Its an authentic pub but with modern and comfortable accommodation built out the back with a nice paved... More

My family and I called in on spec for lunch. The beer is well kept. The service is attentive and very friendly. The food was excellent and was served in good time. The pork belly was fantastic. I would thoroughly recommend a visit to the Gate Hangs High.
