The Blowing Stone Inn – WantageGood beer and the food was pleasant, however having to wait 40 mins for 2 starters and a portion of chips seemed extreme especially as we were about the only customers.
The Blowing Stone Inn – WantageStopped here to eat outside on a chilly Saturday evening as easing allowed in April 2021. We were camping just off the Ridgeway after cycling up from south Hampshire. The beer was excellent and the food just what we wanted. Service was excellent and so pleased that you were open. When we're in your area again, we'll be back.

The Blowing Stone Inn – WantageDespite a chilly evening in the pub's garden, the host's warmth and attentive service made for a very welcome return to this lovely inn. Even though no-one was able to enjoy the log fire indoors, there was still a most convivial atmosphere outside. And the House Burger was as excellent as ever. (16 April 2021).
The Blowing Stone Inn – WantageAbsolutely delicious rib takeaway. Flavoursome and the meat just fell off the bones. Coleslaw was really tasty and a good accompaniment. I was very happy with this as a birthday treat. Definitely recommend.

The Blowing Stone Inn – WantageSo glad to have the Blowingstone back open! The pub has had a refurb and is really smart, but still has the charm of a local country pub that you can have a pint in! Toby and the team and really friendly and the food is spectacular. The baked Camembert comes with a ring of bread around the cheese that you can rip off and dip with - genius. 5/5 stars!

The Blowing Stone Inn – WantageFantastic to see this lovely country inn brought back to life under new ownership. The new, smart but casual, comfortable makeover has lifted the interior, and given it a most convivial ambiance. The food too has been taken to another level, and all the dishes were exemplary, including by far the best, properly cooked burger I have had in years. Challenging times to open a pub to say the least, The Blowing Stone Inn deserves the fullest praise and every success.
