遊戲公雞旅館(The Game Cock Inn)

The most fantastic meal, the service was brilliant and the food was absolutely to die for, would 100% come back and 100% recommend. We did have to book but I am very glad that we did, the desserts were excellent, there was a choice of sticky toffee pudding, some french patisseries, tarts, ice creams and crème brûlée. If you’re staying in the area, you must come here! Fantastic value for money too :)

Great a**osphere in this village pub, nice selection of ales and a perfectly cooked sirloin steak, all four of us had a steak with all the trimmings and a lovely dressed side salad, one of the tastiest steaks I’ve ever had, very attentive staff and reasonably priced. You’ll need to book as the pub gets very busy

This was the second place we visited yesterday and was in stark contrast to the first. The staff and the food and beer were all excellent. If we’re in the area again I’d love to try something different from the menu.

We have just stayed at the Game Cock Inn, we will definitely be back when this way again. The owners and staff were lovely and so helpful. The room we stayed in was a small double and it was perfect, had a comfy nights sleep and a great shower in the morning. Dinner and breakfast were excellent. Can't fault this charming little place.

Really great little inn, perfect location for walking with many breathtaking scenes on the doorstep. Austwick is a quiet peaceful village and the Inn was very relaxing and comfortable. The room was very nicely decorated and the cleanest hotel room I’ve ever stayed in. The bed was very comfortable, the room was warm and quiet. The restaurant makes the best French food I’ve had in the UK and the service was exceptional despite the fact they were short staffed (I will review the restaurant separately in more detail). Breakfast was excellent too with plenty of choice for vegetarians. This is not a pretentious fancy place - it’s clean, cosy, and relaxed, which I much prefer. And good value for money. There’s also a very nice on site bakery that we bought some tarts to take home for the kids. The reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that there were a couple of minor maintenance issues with the room (broken shower door and remote control not working) and also a shame the inn doesn’t have a cosy drinking-by-the-fire space, as it was all dining tables only, which were reserved. It would be nice if there were a few easy chairs or sofas to sit and relax. However, other than that it was perfect.

Stayed here before a couple of years ago. Was great then and still warm hospitality today. Great food, good ales. Perfect after a chilly winters walk. Even banged on some more coals on the fire when asked. Decent hearty burger and fish and chips. The menu has a French twist too but still caters for those wanting traditional pub food. A proper pub.
