About The Miners

The Miners at Sling is an award-winning gastropub nestled right in the heart of the Forest of Dean, nine miles from Chepstow, eight from Monmouth and 16 from Gloucester. It’s a family affair with chef-patron Steven Jenkins presiding over the two-AA-rosette kitchen with a menu that changes daily based around the best available local produce. Most is sourced from within a 40-mile radius and bread, stocks, syrup, chutney and ice cream are all prepared in-house. You might start with Madgetts Farm pigeon salad with Trealy black pudding bon bon followed by South west salmon with champ potato, crayfish and chive butter sauce and to finish the Miners five reasons to love chocolate. The menu also incorporates comfort food options like burgers and fish & chips as well vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options and their popular Picnic Boards at weekends. The Miners has an extensive wine list as well as local spirits and ciders to complement the food and diners have a choice between the restaurant, bar area or beer garden. In winter the bar, with its open log fire, is a popular choice. And if you fancy staying over in this unspoilt part of the world, the Miners has five newly refurbished guest bedrooms, all ensuite. Relaxed and informal, The Miners is the only two-AA-rosette pub in the Forest of Dean and a great base from which to explore.

We were seated seated quickly and our drinks and meal choices taken as soon as we’re ready. Drinks were served quickly and meals came at a good speed between courses. Food was all very good, tasty, and well prepared. Service was great, staff seemed happy and we felt well looked after.

Another excellent meal. My family had Sunday lunch including a gluten free meal and a vegan meal both of which were catered for to a high standard. In my opinion it is the best place to eat in the Forest of Dean and surrounding area. Highly recommend.
Mr C P Churchill
We met up with two friends and being immune suppressed had asked to be on a table on our own. The Staff had laid a table as requested and we had lunch which was both excellent quality and good value. Good venues like these need our support, as in future it will be difficult to find places to have lunch during the week and this place deserves that support.

I Mistakenly booked for the following Sunday but they managed to giggle things around and fit our party of 7 in absolute stars, can only say good things about this place we have been here numerous times over the twenty plus years Mom has lived in Coleford and now that time has come to an end it’s one of the many things we shall miss as we live in the Westmidlands though would come down just to eat here, food excellent, service efficient and friendly not many places manage the two together, atmosphere warm and welcoming, food not had a bad meal yet highly recommend.
