The Five Alls at Filkins

The Five Alls comes with a great pedigree: Kate Moss and the Camerons eat here (it is only a 10-minute drive from Burford, the village many of the Cotswolds ‘set’ live in and around). The chef-patron, Sebastian Snow, previously ran the kitchen at the award-winning nearby Swan at Southrop.

Snow opened the Five Alls with his wife Lana, and they have kept the proper British pub going along with two relaxed and charming restaurant areas plus the garden to eat in when the weather is forgiving. Expect some pub classics: Fish and Chips and Steak and Kidney pie, alongside plentiful seafood dishes and much inspiration from the family’s Italian heritage: Ravioli of crab, Coconut, salt cod and chili, fritto misto, sea bream with salmoriglio, and a children’s menu. The cocktail list includes a grapefruit and prosecco Mojito and a passion fruit bellini.

There are four cozy and good value rooms if you want to stay the night, and the Five Alls checks all the boxes whether you’re looking for a big unday lunch or a refined meal.
