The Hare is a village pub in Fiffield, a small settlement in the central Cotswolds positioned conveniently between Stow-on-the-Wold, Burford, and Chipping Norton.
It makes for a natural stopping point if you're spending time exploring this stretch of the region.
The interior has everything you'd hope for in a proper village pub: a working fireplace, exposed beams, and that accumulated character that only comes with time. Food is handled with real care here, built around seasonal ingredients and local sourcing to deliver proper main courses and solid sandwiches. The drinks list focuses on local ales and ciders, so you get a genuine taste of what the surrounding area brews.
What works about The Hare is its straightforward nature. It treats locals and visitors the same way, whether you're there for lunch, dinner, or just to spend an hour over a drink and soak in the room. The whole place has a relaxed, unhurried quality that reflects the sort of genuine hospitality you find throughout the Cotswolds, minus any pretension. If you're moving through this part of the region, it's a simple and rewarding place to include in your itinerary.
