Lamb Inn - BURFORD

On a warm Sunday afternoon I decided to treat my wife to a cream tea at The Lamb, as advertised on their website. We found a table in the lounge but when I tried to order at the bar I was told they were too busy to serve 'walk-ins. ' We recently stayed for two nights at The Hare and Hounds, Westonbirt, another hotel in the group, and were not entirely satisfied. We live in Burford and have celebrated anniversaries, birthdays etc at The Lamb over many years. It is sad to see that a hotel group renowned for good service has now been taken over by a faceless company that teaches their staff to call customers 'walk-ins ' to their face. .

The garden setting of The Lamb is the perfect place to revive after strolling the main street and shops of charming Burford. Blooming gardens, sun parasols, comfortable seating and a menu that offers fresh, piquant food. I had an asparagus tart with a salad spiced with fine pickle. My husband is delighting in the seasonal rhubarb pavlova.

We were in dire need of a light lunh during a long fraught drive and dropped into The Lamb. Delighted to have excellent swiftly produced sandwiches cheese and chutney for her , smoked salmon for me. Jolly good coffee too. Lovely ambience and perfect service. Everything very clean and up to date

Myself and a friend enjoyed afternoon tea at The Lamb Inn this afternoon. Service was excellent and very quick. The table we reserved was comfortable chairs placed in front of a wood fire for fabulous atmosphere. The food was delightful. Absolutely no complaints.

Beautiful restaurant, seem less service backed up by a phenomenal meal and great wine list! Thank you for a beautiful lunch already rebooked!
