- We took up the recommendation of the Pheasant in Brill, which is a lovely pub but which sadly only did food until 2 which we'd missed, so went to Spoons in Bicester for a late lunch instead, via a quick inspection of the charming little church in Ludgershall.
- 2014, Naomi Rettig, One More Year On Facebook, page 205:
- We went to Spoons but it was too busy so went across to The Punch House which I'm glad we did as the food was delicious. I had wild rice, nut and honey bake.
