The Pheasant At Buckland

Booked for Sunday lunch for 6 people, staff were very friendly and accommodating, food service was quick and food was excellent. The pub has plenty of parking and the building itself is amazing. We sat outside, as weather was good, in which there was plenty of seating under a very large gazebo. Would highly recommend.

I really enjoy coming to this pub on a warm and sunny day. The outside area is superb with a lawned part with picnic benches and a canopy for those who want proper outside dining with a bit if shade. There are plenty of tables of varying sizes and the chairs comfortable. They seem to have changed the menu since my last visit and I found it slightly pretentious so I didn't bother with food. Although looking around it looked nice enough and well presented. It shared some dishes with The Fox Revived (also Brunning and Price) but charged slightly more. The indoor area looks perfect for the autumn/winter and I'm looking forward to going back then. All of the staff encountered were really friendly, attentive and professional which is nice to see.

Really loved my visit here, food was really good, I had a pie. I was served at the bar by a tall, tanned boy, he was so lovely and had a very nice smile and was really sweet, charming and patient about me forgetting my table number. Whoops! I think his name was Led. Would highly recommend this pub and would hope to be served by that young man again!

It appeared rely busy on a sunny Sunday lunchtime, so not surprising. However the service was very quick, friendly and efficient. There was a very good choice of real ales. I had the crispy butter chicken burger. It was probably the nicest most tender piece of chicken I have had in years. Freshly cooked with tasty other bits in the burger. My wife had the veggie Wellington which she said was very nice.

Lovely garden with well spaced out tables. Even table service in the garden, service with a smile. A delicious starter of prawn cocktail- the prawns were full of flavour. And the stater of belly pork was so tender and came with a very tastey unusual salad. Both highly recommended. The main meal of fish and chips was a bit overpriced! And there was disappointment as no sausage and mash was on the menu!

This place definitely needs reporting…. …. for excellence! Let’s start with the ‘rest rooms’ - spotless - says it all really - attention to detail here speaks volumes and quite clearly such fastidiousness will be through out. The welcome, the service, the enthusiasm and politeness from everyone reflects on the whole team of colleagues in general and the leadership in particular. Food - fresh leaves, fresh bread, a thick steak burger cooked throughout (so many kitchens struggle doing this) - Great meal chef -thank you.

Excellent service as always, thank you. Food arrived in very good time after ordering. 2nd visit after moving to the area 2 months ago. Cod and chips was very good. Roast dinners were also delicious. However, portion sizes were very large and the 3 of us adults who ordered them, could not finish our meals. Perhaps worth considering this so there is less waste? We will definitely return and hope to enjoy the lovely outdoor space as well next time.
