We had a lovely lunch on Mother's day. We had chicken and beef roasts and they all came with creamy parsnip puree, green veg, carrots, Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes and just enough gravy. The beef was really soft and very tasty. The baked American cheesecake went down and storm as did the chocolate brownies. Friendly service as well.

Good beef and great puddings

Being a Sunday the doors opened at 12 noon not to be in direct competition with the village church 😎
ALL members of staff made us feel most welcome
We possibly went over the top having all three courses but found all three to be nicely prepared and cooked
Totally recommended and thank you 

We will return 👍

Made to feel at home

Traveled up from Gloucestershire to have Christmas menu with our two Aunts our party 6 in total honestly could not fault the food beautifully cooked hot fresh food and desserts all homemade the quality, service and price 10 out of 10 would highly recommend staff were so efficient and friendly which goes a long way

Highly recommend 10 out of 10

We loved staying at the Perch and Pike in the lovely little village of South Stoke. We had a quiet room and enjoyed one of the best meals of our entire vacation in the UK at dinner.  We also loved the atmosphere of the dog-friendly pub. The breakfast was amazing and reminded us of the good old days of staying at B&Bs -- full English breakfast, fresh breads and toast, and what tasted like fresh squeezed orange juice.

Best Stay Ever

Had a fabulous meal for 6 at Perch & Pike tonight and Linda’s warm Bakewell Tart was a fantastic conclusion to a wonderful evening. Tom & Millie service was immaculate and as always atmosphere was warm & friendly, perfect homely Brit Pub for a chilly November evening - thanks guys 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Hot Bakewell Tart is a winner 😛

We based ourselves at The Perch and Pike for a three night mini break.  We were warmly welcomed by Linda and Jamie and their friendly efficient team (and a flask of fresh milk and jar of homemade shortbread in our room).
We had a most comfortable stay with excellent dinners and scrumptious breakfasts as well as the picnic lunch they kindly prepared for us.  Jamie gave us ample warning that the kitchen was closed on the Saturday night for live music and food.  It was a perfect evening for relaxing with a pint or two in the lovely garden enjoying the music and delicious baps (especially the rare beef) and meeting the local regulars.
We are booked to return in a few weeks.

Mini Break

We visited with friends after reading the positive reviews and I can’t understand how our experience differs so much from the reviews on TA. It’s been a long while since I’ve had such bad food. 

The starter of Falafel was dry and the main of chicken burger was almost inedible. The plate was full of deep fried dry chicken, dry bread bun, salad and coleslaw but none of it was good. This pub needs to stop the massive potions and serve fresh cooked food that is flavoursome rather than deep fried pre prepared. My husband had the pie which was heated meat filling served in a dish with a puff pastry warmed lid placed onto the dish. It definitely wasn’t a pie! When he asked the waiter if it could be served with mash instead of chips the waiter responded that was probably too much to ask of the kitchen staff as they were busy. 

It’s been years since we were last at The Perch even though we only live a couple of miles away - it will be years before we consider visiting again. There are much better places to eat and drink in this beautiful area.

Poor pub food

Great location....

Past experiences have been good however past two times have not been great.  

Nice for a drink and nibbles but mains need improving.

Staff were great. Young team served us and were polite and helpful throughout the service.

Nice for a pint and nibbles

Really good roast beef Sunday lunch and the staff couldn’t have been more obliging - we needed wheelchair access and they were so helpful…. Nothing was a problem. The staff were all very young but SO professional and knowledgeable - what a delight to eat somewhere and feel looked after so well. Thank you guys xxx

Lovely Sunday lunch 

We are a family of 4 and an extra 2 friends that have just spent an idyllic 2 nights with Jamie & Linda at their gloriously comfortable, welcoming, friendly and traditionally modern country pub (with well integrated B&B twist).  Nothing was too much trouble - from the smallest of details - tweaking breakfast combinations - to more logistical of problems - offering a lift to my Dad to our family party - amazing! 
The rooms are absolutely amazing, comfortable, coffee machine, lovely shortbread! The breakfast - WOW! So much choice and Linda’s conversation and patience was perfect …… ‘can I have a full breakfast, but instead of this, can I have that etc etc….’. We were a table of 10 for dinner on the first night and the food did not disappoint! Jamie is everything a landlord should be - interesting, amusing, knowledgable and an all round people person. This is definitely an attitude that’s passed down through their team, because every one of them were spot on! We will absolutely be staying there again and would recommend Jamie and Linda’s Perch & Pike without hesitation! Can’t wait to visit again! John & Julie
