This is our first visit to Stratford Upon Avon and we found this wonderful restaurant online. All three courses were very well presented and were extremely tasty. Staff were very friendly & attentive - overall the service was impeccable. Would we return back?.. Hell Yeah!! Thank you for a wonderful evening.

Without doubt this is one of the nicest restaurants I have been to recently. My pan fried liver was delicious, husband’s duck ‘was one of the best’ he had tasted. His choux bun filled with tiramisu was great. Staff so friendly & nice relaxed music & atmosphere. All four of us will definitely return .
