Great beer, reasonably priced food and drinks (much cheaper than the other two pubs in Shrivenham!). Would certainly recommend, also free darts and a pool table makes it a great place for a few drinks.

This is certainly not a place to eat, the food and service are very poor. The lunch time menu is lacking ,my colleague had an omelette which bounced off of the plate and the soup was tasteless, the service was helpful but really needs some attention. Coffee is on offer at the bar, and offers 5 different types all taste... More

Used the Barrington Arms for a couple of nights, and found it a very nice place to stay. Clean, quiet rooms (had a room toward the courtyard) and amazing space for staying more than a few days. Bathrooms are top of the line, and ample supplies of hot water for showers. Great. Hosts are very nice and accomodating, helping you... More

Stayed one night in the purpose built rooms at the back. It was clean comfortable and had an amazing shower. The full English breakfast was really nice and most importantly hot. The lady looking after us was extremely helpful and friendly. There was ample parking at the back which meant your car was not left on the road. It was... More

A large group of us visited and the place is really nice but the food and service was appalling , they took an hour to serve the main course to everyone and when it arrived it was burnt and very dry and the waitress was miserable (probably embarrassed ) – stay clear

Hotel is great, beautiful rooms and the most comfortable bed I have slept in before! But didn't see the positive reflection quite the same when it came to the service. The bar girls were always smiling and nothing was too much, the food was lovely too. But what really let my stay down was the so called managers, who were... More

I stayed at the Barrington in May 2012 as part of a wedding party who had booked the whole place. Everyone was very pleased with the hotel and the staff there were very accommodating and helpful. Nothing was too much. The rooms are finished to a very high standard and were spotlessly clean. The bed that we had for the... More
