What a transformation! Having had a horrendous experience at this pub under its previous ownership I was delighted to hear it had changed hands. It is now run as a family business and you won’t get a warmer welcome in the area. Great atmosphere, friendly service and great food. This has quickly become one of our favourite pubs to visit in the Newbury area. PS: it was a relief to delete my previous review of the BlackBird under its previous management.
Ignore the older reviews. New owners since about September 2017. They have spruced up the decor and the toilets. The food was delicious from start to finish. Locally sourced crayfish in the tortellini, wild boar with the most delicious dark sauce. And a lovely wobbly panacota. Dog friendly and excellent relaxed service. Plenty of good wine by the glass choices too. Great to have the blackbird back as the great village pub it always should have been, can't wait for next summer when the garden will come into its own.
Delicious light meals in a country pub atmosphere. There was a good by-the-glass wine list, and the pre-theatre menu it's by the watermill theatre had a good choice of dishes. The Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee was stunning. A very pleasant evening, and not expensive!
Dinner out yesterday evening at The Blackbird with my parents, celebrating my Mum's birthday. Such a lovely evening. It was an absolutely amazing meal! A refreshing gin and tonic to start, freshly baked bread, an unexpected 'amuse bouche' of pumpkin soup, cheese soufflé with apple, beautiful Plaice in sauce Véronique, a palate cleansing lemon sorbet with Limonchello, an airy passion fruit bavarois for dessert, a great Rioja, coffees and a special plate of petit fours with a candle for my Mum. All was absolutely delicious and served in pretty little cups, glasses and dishes. The service low-key and attentive and the dining area candle-lit, warm and welcoming. Just a shame my phone camera ran out of battery but go and see for yourself... Definitely well worth a visit!
Top quality fish and chips for two adults and two kids to take away due to Covid 19 lockdown for £30. Friendly service when ordering on the phone, and the food was ready a couple of minutes after the pickup time. The bar has been taken over with a great range of quality and many local foods and drinks available to buy, which would make perfect Christmas gifts.
Great food. Deserving of its newly awarded Michelin star. Not the cheapest for sure. But if you're a foodie you'll want to give it a try
Simply delicious food from start to finish. Great service too. Interesting menu with enough choices. The prices do reflect the quality of the food though. Please like if you find this review useful.
Just popped in for drinks. The place is a nice country pub. It offers good coffee and a range of nice beers. The menu is aimed at the more expensive side of the pub market. Service was polite and attention to detail was clear through from the bar service through to the toilets. Would recommend for those on a higher budget for pub food. Large garden out to the side with a play area.
Beautiful location. We didn't have food there only drinks. They had spaced seating areas out well with one way system in place.
Friendly staff and great Sunday pizzas... Also showing live rugby on big screen in garden. Love this place, highly recommend.
