First time in this place lovely welcoming place staff very friendly
What a friendly lovely pub. With GREAT food, definitely value for money. The rooms are comfortable and very spacious. Thank you to Mon and Steve for making our weekend so special we will definitely be coming down again.
Arrived as a last-minute reservation for a party of 8 for my Pa's birthday dinner.
To say we were looked after would be an understatement - we felt welcomed immediately, the staff were impeccable and the food was absolutely delightful.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful evening!
A traditional pub in a picturesque English village. Lots of interesting architecture but tall people may have a problem! It has a small beer garden with a layout that is somewhat...random! Has a food menu. Sandwiches were fine but nothing special. Other dishes feel a little pricey for what is proposed. Parking might be a problem.
Stayed here for 2 nights with my girlfriend and had a very pleasant stay. Richard the landlord was very welcoming, the bedroom and bathroom was very nice and clean. The bar and beer was great, we would happily stay again!
Stayed overnight and the welcome from Richard was warm as was the room. The bed was the most comfortable we have slept in and the bar has a great range of drinks. The JB is an amazing pub and a great place to visit. Thanks Richard and will visit again soon.
This is a charming old pub with low ceilings, good beers, tasty food and a bar billiards table which the landlord was more than happy to show us how to play. We had a brilliant evening. Thank you!
Had a lovely family lunch. Great pub in a beautiful location. The Sunday roast was delicious and a very enjoyble lamb breast. The servce was excellent. Thankyou.
Very nice traditional village pub, with friendly staff and good food.
Enjoyed the beer which went down well.
Definitely recommend a visit.
Really great pub! I'd visited once before but failed to realise there is a bar billiards table and a pub garden (tbf it was middle of winter and pitch black when I arrived and we sat in the little room on the left which I had no reason to leave all evening). It's a really quirky building with little seating nooks as well as some larger spaces, but all divided into separate rooms so it is cosy rather than open and noisy. There was a good choice of beer and cider and all were well kept. We're excited to come back for a visit when the kitchen reopens!

Lovely barman ,who was helping out while the new owners get established. Attractive inside decor. Looking forward to returning when they will offer tea and coffee and food. Then I'll give 5 stars.
My boy, 16, and I were pedaling King Alfred's Way and our day three lodging was the JB. Of our four accommodations on the trip, our room above the pub in Goring was the most comfy, well-appointed and just plain pleasant. Richard could not have been more gracious, chatting us up in the early evening, patiently showing us how to play bar billiards after supper then sending us off with good cheer the following morning. The rustic pub has charm to spare and the beer garden is a winner as well. (Do beware the black skittle on the billiards table as my son found out to his chagrin. Twice.)
