Finding Good Places to Eat in Stratford Upon Avon

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Stratford upon Avon is packed with places that are relevant to its most famous resident, William Shakespeare. You can certainly spend a day or two at least walking round the various properties that Shakespeare and his love Anne Hathaway frequented during their lives.

But all that activity in Stratford Upon Avon is going to make you hungry at some point. That’s why it’s good to have a reference guide to help you pick the best places to eat while you are there. Whether you are staying in one of the many Stratford upon Avon cottages that are available or a Stratford upon Avon hotel, you can enjoy a bite or two to eat out and about as well.

Here are some suggestions:

Café Rouge

While this restaurant is not unique to Stratford upon Avon – you’ll find them all over the UK – it is a welcome sight after a long day visiting assorted attractions. Be sure to head to Sheep Street to find it.

It is particularly nice if you want a refreshing change from traditional English food. The welcoming French themed menu is mouth watering and yet not entirely unfamiliar. This makes it a great choice even if you have kids to please. After all, they do sell the most wonderful French fries!
Carluccio’s

Sometimes you want a fantastic view to match the fantastic menu, and this restaurant can offer you both in the wonderful setting of Stratford upon Avon.

The food is different but not so different that you won’t be tempted by it. And the prices are very reasonable too. Visiting either for lunch or for dinner is equally enjoyable, and you’ll find that the hardest part of your visit is trying to narrow down your choices of what to eat! The restaurant is located on Waterside.

Sorrento Restaurant

Ely Street hides a real gem of a restaurant called Sorrento. This is a family run affair which caters to all kinds of people. Its location close to the Shakespeare Theatre makes it a popular choice for a meal before taking in a show. You could also book a meal to look forward to after you have seen a performance.

When the weather is good the patio area provides a great way to enjoy some fresh air along with your meal. In fact, no visit to Stratford upon Avon during a weekend break is complete without a visit to Sorrento.
The Malbec Petit Bistro

You don’t always want a huge meal when you go out, but that doesn’t mean you don’t want the finest service or attention either. You might be expecting high prices because of the ‘bistro’ name, but in actual fact you can dine for an unbelievably low price here.

Their lunch menu is available at just £5 per course with a two course minimum requirement. Simply head over to Union Street to discover a whole new type of bistro.

That selection of venues should get you started. But don’t forget there are plenty more to find as well. The secret is to explore and enjoy!
