Named after the visit of Elizabeth I to the village in August 1575, this old pub has a fresh modern feel inside. It is a community pub, owned by 26 local residents who rescued it from closure. The bar has a flagstone floor, timber beams and a roaring fire. There's a small surcharge for drinking halves. The comfortable lounge and separate dining room also act as a café during the day. A good place to start and end walks up Bredon Hill. Regular weekly and monthly themed food evenings and two annual beer festivals May and August bank holidays. Bus runs 6 days a week, from Pershore en route to Evesham.

Breakfasts are served 09.30 to 11.30 Tuesday to Sunday

Asset of Community Value

Dates from 17th century and has an inn sign of 1898 commemorating the authenticated visit of Queen Elizabeth 1 to the village in 1575. It still retains a little altered tap room with old flagstone floor, inglenook fireplace with bare seats either side, a 1930s brick fireplace, old dado panelling, old bare window seating, old cupboard by the fireplace and latch door to cellar has a figure '5' on it. The main bar on a higher level has a new brick bar, new bar back, new seating and new wood laminate floor. There is another small room on the right with little character. The restaurant on the left is in three sections with timbers dividing them, a 1930s brick fireplace in front section and another (or 50s) brick fireplace in the rear section. Note the unusual tables with scenes in wood relief covered by glass, also carved chairs to match. Not enough for R I.
