The Fleece Inn

If you’re looking for some pub grub, Visit Worcestershire recommends The Fleece Inn in Bretforton, Evesham.

“The pub pays homage to the locally grown vegetable Asparagus during May and June.”

One guest at the pub took to Google Reviews to share their experience: “Full of history and it's just how you imagine a traditional and historic pub would look like - The staff (even those not on duty) were brilliant, all really helpful and made us and our hound Bella very welcome. The food was superb (try the homemade pies) plenty on the plate and presented really well.

“You can see why this Pub has won so many awards and gets great reviews. It was also nice to see it is a hub for the local community and not just catering for us visitors (or Grockles as we are called in Devon) - Plus a really nice selection of local Ales & Ciders -Well done all- we hope to see you again soon”.
