In the centre of the Forest of Dean is Parkend which boasts the Woodman.Busy at weekends and with regular live music. We visited on a weekday lunchtime and weren't disappointed with the good food and ale.

A very warm welcome to the Butchers Arms. One of the oldest pubs in the Forest of Dean, we have been welcoming locals and visitors alike since 1802. Our menu combines signature 'Butchers' dishes with traditional British favourites, our modern recipes and

My first visit and I will be back! Lovely, atmospheric pub, plenty of character but rennovated really well. Menu has lots of choice, especially for a Sunday lunch and the food was really good. Friendly and efficient service.

Had an enjoyable visit here - cocktails and paella. Only gripe was the rather boisterous behaviour of some of the other customers that detracted a little from the enjoyment of the meal. Understandably, this place is trying to attract as many customers as possible but, perhaps, there needs to be better separation between those using it as a bar and those seeking somewhere for a quiet meal.

Booked on a Saturdayfor 8pm, arrived at 7.45. Shown our table and menu arrived promptly. Ordered at 8pm. We were given complimentary small soup mug and cheese twist, very tasty. We ordered fish & chips, and rump of lamb and waited, waited and waited. No one came to explain any delay. Eventually, an hour later the food was brought. Just a quick comment in regard to the time taken, but no real trouble taken to explain the delay. Meanwhile others who came in later than ourselves were being served their meals. Shared the chocolate platter dessert which was very good, served by the landlady as the staff were clearing to go home. Will not rush to return.

We visited here whilst holidaying in the area. Great portion sizes and lots of vegetables to go with the meats etc. Varied menu offered on other days except Sunday which is the roast. Drinks very reasonably priced and appears to be popular with the locals which is always a good sign

Ate here one evening after stumbling across here. Enjoyed it so much, we booked to return the following evening. The service was warm, friendly and prompt. The food was very good, tasty and reasonably priced.A hidden gem, well worth seeking out.

Proper country Pub with Log Fires, great real ales and wines, relaxing walled garden as recommended in The Good Pub Guide. Open for lunch and supper seven days a week.

Went for Sunday Lunch. No Sunday Roast but offered a standard menu. We all had fish, one halibut and three stone bass. None of us enjoyed the food because it was so salty. Four small glasses of wine and four coffees came to £27.30 and for very inferior wine too. This pub two years ago was very good. It has gone downhill. The gent toilets were dirty with cobwebs and very unhygienic. My advice it to give this pub a miss. Other have as there were only two other tables occupied. Customers are already voting with their feet.

Forgot to bring the salad when serving the main meal until later. The chips were cold and had to go back. The replacement chips arrived after we had eaten most of the main course.Steak was ordered as medium rare and had not a trace of pink when served.(This was brought to the attention of the staff when asked if everything was OK).Only one person serving in the bar and obviously a family event in one area. Children sitting at the bar and could be heard throughout the evening.Apologetic staff but No suggestion or compensation was offered for the poor food on what was meant to be a birthday celebration. (Not a cheap meal either)Very DisappointedMr ParishAs the Business owner (for 10 Years) we will not apologise for allowing children into our Pub/Restaurant. We have always been and will continue to be a family run Pub. However, we do apologise for the chips, which were replaced with freshly cooked ones. Regarding your 10oz Sirloin steak (£16.95 including all sides and Trimmings), if you think this is expensive, you obviously haven't been out for a while! We take complaints and criticism very seriously, but the waitress service checked you, you stated your steak was over-cooked, she offered a replacement which you refused. Your plate was checked once brought back to the kitchen, and the remnants of steak were certainly not overcooked, if anything were closer to rare, of which we have photographic evidence. (If anyone wishes to see this photo we are more than happy to post it.) The outer edges would generally be more cooked than the inner. Why would a compensation be offered when you practically ate all of your meal? If you don't like children then maybe I would suggest staying at home

We both really enjoyed our lunch today, chosen from the chefâs specials board. I had the nachos with chilli beef and loads of cheese, which was so tasty and really filling and my husband had the pastrami style cured trout. That was extraordinarily flavoursome and unusual. Ideal as a starter or light lunch dish. See picture below. Of course the ordinary menu has a wide range of lovely offerings too. We do advise you phone ahead as tables get booked up especially at the weekend and holiday times.
