During our week in England, this was our only time we partook in actual English food. I had a really scrummy Rarebit with an onion marmalade and some crisps along with some local lemonade. It felt really great to be there and we enjoyed our visit, albeit brief, in Stowe-on-the-Wold.

My earl gray tea was really nice on this chilly day- you get the whole teapot! The carrot cake was really nice as well- great texture, not too sweet. 2 drinks and 2 pastry/sweets for ~£9 isn't too shabby!

Yum! I have to…read moreadmit I was a bit worried about this when my husband and I wandered in during our brief 1-hour stop here on a day-trip with a guided tour company. We were pointed to this place as a good and popular spot with those on our trip so we decided to take the advice of others and give it a go. It's small and nondescript from the street but we walked in and found a bustling coffee shop vibe with folks sitting on comfy chairs and couches in the main part near a fireplace and some seating in the back. We squeezed in between two couples (one with a dog laying down beside their table) and were provided menus. They also have an outdoor terrace space you can eat at but it was a bit cold for that. Their menu features several coffee drinks, sandwiches (either on bread, as a baguette or panini), burgers, and some traditional English fare like some bangers and mash daily special I saw. I went with the chicken panini which was basically just roast chicken breast sliced in small chewable pieces, with mayonnaise, chives, and tomato. It was absolutely delicious and was served with a small house salad with balsamic dressing. My husband ordered their burger but opted to only get the burger with a bun and ketchup and mayonnaise bc he has the sophisticated palette of a third grader. Still, he said it was "OK". He ordered a mocha and said it was delicious. The older couple on our right were very nice and we had a pleasant conversation with them about travel and life in general. They ordered cake and ice cream and it looked delicious but we decided to be good. We had a very good experience here and a very good meal. I left happy and full and felt good about what I had eaten. I saw a sign on their wall that said they don't serve fast food, they serve good food as fast as they can. And they did! Well worth a stop in if you are in this area of the Cotswolds.
