Loxley's is an outstanding restaurant in the heart of Stratford on Avon…read more They specialize in European modern cuisine. Our party of six was easily accommodated in their upstairs dining rooms on a Thursday evening around 8:00pm. We made a reservation on open table earlier in the day. Our server was Meghan who was cheerfully warm, welcoming and quite knowledgeable about the menu. Meghan made excellent menu suggestions. Loxley's also has a gluten free and a dairy free version of their current menu so special orders are simple. We started out with a charcuterie sampler that was full of delectable treats. I enjoyed the mushroom risotto and added some tiger prawns. Others in our party enjoyed the pork belly, duck and cod dishes. All delicious and artfully prepared. Of course Loxley's has a wide assortment of beers, wines and cocktails to enjoy with your dinner. If you are looking for less touristy fine dining in Stratford on Avon you will find it here. Double highly recommend.

After tasting a rancid drink of Tomato juice where I could tell it was definitely off and tasted acidic and was bubbling (working). Manager refused to accept it was off. Oddly enough wouldn't try it though. Refused to refund. I have used this restaurant regularly on Sundays prior but I will think again about the future. He just smirked showing his total disinterest.. I think they thought I was just a passing through customer and would not be seen again - how wrong. Overall the food was good and the waiting staff were brilliant. Shame that the manager was less helpful therefore letting the team down. I have made a complaint and will see if they reply. Update: Visited today 24/8. Spoke to a professional supervisor, she listened, understand my complaint, apologised and rectified the situation. So much better than my first interaction with management. Thank you.

What a wonderful stop…read more We were visiting Shakespeare's birthplace, and after enriching our minds we definitely needed a drink. Without hesitation our guide immediately recommended the Old Thatch Tavern. First of all, it is centrally located and easy to find. Once there you're taking by the decor and homely feeling. The staff were amazing. I wasn't drinking hard liquor and they guided me through a variety of Apple ciders that were delightful. They made the entire experience 1000% better. Their advice and knowledge really made the stop one of the best drinking experiences we had in England. Little by little more members of our crew continues showing up and eventually we had a full blown part going. Again, it was a blast! I can't wait to go again, make a stop at the Old Thatch Tavern and relive some of the memories.

Had a lovely visit to Stratford-upon-Avon for my birthday…read more This pub looked lovely from the outside and we headed straight there after our delicious meal in a nearby restaurant. It was 10.25 on Wednesday evening, February 25th, but we were turned away by the young barman, as he said he had already called last orders and wasn't letting anybody else in. Now, my husband and I were very disappointed, as everywhere else in the town had been so welcoming and accommodating. We walked across the road and had a few drinks in another bar, as there are plenty of nice places to choose from, BUT, if I was the owner of this establishment, I would not be best pleased at young bar staff turning my customers away. That is a lot of revenue to lose over the year if this is happening every night, especially with the cost of living at its current high and the daily struggle that pubs face to stay profitable!! Maybe a bit of staff re-training wouldn't go amiss and a reminder of who pays the wages!!

We prebooked the Christmas special, which was 3 courses, an AB, and a couple of drinks included. It was busy, but service was very slow. Our whole meal lasted 2 hours when it really shouldn't have. The tartine starter was quite good but my scallops not so much. The sauce was good, shrimp inside was good, but the scallops didn't taste fresh. After an agonizing 30 minutes after, we finally received our mains - beef Wellington. The beef was dry and overcooked, literally had to dunk in the sauce 3x before you could eat it. The pastry surrounding it was cold and borderline soggy. Effectively, the dish wasn't hot so why did it take so long to come out? The beef was accompanied by some oddly fixed flavorless salad of green beans, kale, and green onion. The side of the cauliflower was delicious. Desserts were ok - two different types of chocolate. Drinks were good. Staff member who served us was very friendly and the staff certainly looked overwhelmed at serving the level of business that day.

This colorful cat café serves afternoon tea and entrées amidst a space of a few adoptable cats…read more Most of the seven or so cats were chilling. Only the two to three kittens were actively playing under the influence of catnip. Customers are free to roam around the café and use the couple of toys scattered around. General admission for a 90-minute visit costs £6 per person. Even if not purchasing one of the packages that include food and beverages, you are free to order from the menu during the visit. My brother ordered a pot of Darjeeling Loose Leaf Tea for £3. When booking a slot online, you also select a table. From review recommendations, we picked Table 8 by the stairs for our 3:30 PM Thursday session. That day it was the table furthest from all the cats staying by the entrance. Two other parties were present when we came. A good number of tables were packed in the narrow room that I had to squeeze by just to sit down. It was sweltering outside and inside only had fans, so the enclosed space was slightly unbearably hot. Downstairs has a basement floor that was cooler, but only two cats were there, both of which were sleeping. We only stayed for forty minutes before escaping outside where there was at least a breeze.
