“A day out to remember”
+After the unexpected closure of another local pub in the Lambourn valley at which we'd arranged lunch for a group of runners & walkers, the Queens Arms came up trumps in taking us on at relatively short notice. Individual lunch orders from those planning to attend were taken and passed on, so that on the day we were confident of a good meal after the 'exercise'. And we were not disappointed: at the agreed time of 13.15 a stream of plates were served in the garden room so well that everyone, already with a drink from the efficient bar, had their food of choice at the same time. Food - delicious; service - faultless.

“Friendly lovely location”
+Had a great meal, combined with excellent local walk. The village is extremely pretty. Pub is dog- friendly and staff were very helpful about changing our time due to traffic delays

“Wonderful food, great location, fabulous staff,”
+Absolutely BLISSFUL weekend break at the Queen's Arms. Ate in the restaurant on Friday evening - very tasty! I had the duck with polenta, my husband went for the baked cod. Both plates almost licked clean! Ditto desert (deconstructed Black Forest Gateaux and Chocolate Delice respectively) There was a large event on Saturday evening but once we closed the bathroom window which opened onto the courtyard we couldn't hear anything) Breakfast both mornings were delicious - obviously proper butcher meat not cheap supermarket stuff. Bizarrely the highlight were the tomatoes 🤔 Properly cooked (not just popped under a grill for 30 seconds like you often get) and SOOOOO tasty. Everything else was lovely too - the Eggs Benedict being personal favourite, delicious Hollandaise Sauce. Stayed in "Datsalrightgino" (I believe this room used to be Hennessy) one of the ground floor courtyard rooms. The outer door (shared with Bobs Worth) was a little loud when the neighbours were coming and going but otherwise very peaceful and quiet. Only downsides were the bed wasn't central so that there was only a very small gap between the bed and the window wall and no plugs by the bedside. The courtyard rooms

“Messy and sloppy”
+The staff were very welcoming and customer service was 100%. The only issue’s were the double cheese burger was very hard to eat , as soon as you picked it up it fell apart and it was very messy, the fried egg was over cooked and rubbery , the bun was dripping wet and soggy from not letting the patties rest , also the fish and chips , the chips looked amazing but they fell short , not crispy, theses need to be triple cooked.
“A beautiful experience once again”
+This was my second stay at the Queen’s Arms. I saw it on Four in a Bed and first stayed here in 2022. It was a joy to return. Once again stayed in the splendid Wishing Well room with its wonderful jet bath. Lovely dinner, friendly staff and a brilliant nights sleep. Only thing to mention is that the toilet seat refuses to stay up! The heater didn’t work but the staff immediately came to the rescue and brought in two portable heaters. Will be back again soon. It’s one of my favourite places and set in beautiful countryside.

“Wonderful stay again - fantastic food, friendly service and very dog friendly”
+We have now stayed at The Queens Arms, East Garston for the third time, and once again it was excellent from start to finish. It is a lovely, welcoming pub with a really friendly atmosphere, and you can tell it is very well managed. The service was great throughout our stay, and all of the staff were warm, attentive and genuinely welcoming. We also really appreciated how dog friendly it is our dogs, Luna and Lola, were made to feel very welcome too, which always makes such a difference. The food was amazing, both at lunch and in the evening, and very reasonably priced for the quality. Breakfast was also excellent, with a full cooked option, freshly brewed coffee and a very good range for vegetarians. There is ample parking, and the outside area is a real bonus, especially with the heating if you want to enjoy drinks outdoors. Overall, it is one of those places that feels effortless as a guest, but only because everything is run so well behind the scenes. We always enjoy staying here and will definitely be returning again. If you want, I can also do a slightly shorter, more natural-sounding version that feels even more like a TripAdvisor post written casually by a guest.

“Superb food, staff, service and location”
+The pub managed to accommodate a group of 13 (plus dog) at 6 days notice. All the staff were excellent, very welcoming and we didn't have to wait for food or drinks. The menu offered exiting additions to normal pub fare - and everything we tasted was delicious. Lovely location (even in the rain) and a warm atmosphere in a traditional village pub. We stayed longer than planned to watch the rugby with a few extra pints.

“Tranquil Village Life”
+I loved the quiet upstairs room. No noise from the car park or pub that I could hear. Beautiful view of horses and a tranquil village. The lighting was probably the best ever. Switches at door and bed. Plenty of light for reading. The bathroom light has a blue glow for about 5 minutes, I suppose so you can find your way to bed. Passage lights are off normally but respond to movement well. Bed is comfortable and kettle and coffee supplies left nothing to be desired.
