Good Sunday lunch

Visited last Sunday for lunch. Their carvery had a choice of three meats and veg and trimmings were great. My husband said it was the best meal he had all week during our stay in Stratford Upon Avon. Staff were pleasant and welcoming.

You can never predict how busy the pub can be, I would suggest that if you know when you want to go then I’d book it now then I’m sure you’d get a table and not be disappointed in missing out.
