The pub is closed and up for sale sadly. Looks nice from the outside and right next to the church.

I came upon this pub by pure chance on a trip to study Edwin lutyens architectural masterpiece Castle Drogo. This pub was the cherry on the top of the cake. About 400 years old and unspoilt interior an absolute gem serving top quality cask conditioned real ale. Perhaps it's because it's Off the Beaten Track that this pub has managed to survive so well. Any lovers of Real Ale and historic pubs needs to visit this place. Definitely in my top 10 favourite pubs in England.

Very warm welcome! It's been a pub since the 1600's! And there are stories to go with it! My boy's loved hearing them! They've not stopped telling their mates about our visit!
Good luck to the new landlord btw!

Great. Lovely history of the old landlady Mabel who served for over 70 years. Shes buried in the graveyard next door. Lovely pint

Lovely village pub steeped in (real) history. Warm welcome good pub food, dogs welcome. The Drewe Arms is a perfect example of what a village pub should be.

Good authentic pub, good beers, food looked good too. A warm welcome, first class service. Shame we weren't there for long. Lovely history inside about the oldest Landlady. I recommend stopping for a drink. Beautastic!

Lunch - good pub grub served with a smile and with good ales. Nothing pretentious here, just a real local pub.
Evening Open Mic night. ...A great welcome for us as two holidaying buskers. Unusually for some mic nights, there were no prima donnas - just genuine and talented musos covering many styles. A really appreciative audience and musicians who'd stayed for the whole evening - not just doing their bit and leaving. An excellent night in a proper pub - thank you.

We had dinner and a few ciders here. The landlord was very friendly and food was typical pub club and tasty. The pub was busy with lots of chat and dogs.

Traditional thatched pub with excellent food and variety of beers and in particular ciders.
Was originally run by Ms.Mudge who was at one time the oldest pub landlady in Britain.
Well worth a visit.
