Not to mention that we found it be accident by asking a local woman on the side of a small street in a small town. The view with our dinner was spectacular. Rolling hills, sunset. The service was great and they catered to our needs. The food was fresh, delicious. Flavors exquisite. I have to say every dish our table tried each person loved! That's three different opinions and all good! Please come here. I couldn't help but think it has not been discovered by outsiders and the locals like it that way. So keep it our little secret because it felt like we had the whole view and place to ourselves! Definitely worthy of any award, star, rating, in any foodie magazine it will get.

Sadly the Swan has gone downhill... I've been here several before and it was always delicious…read more Now, it's mediocre and feels like a soulless chain. Here's what we experienced: - no one greeting guests - tables with uncleared plates of half eaten food and dirty glasses - disinterested staff - cheap paper menus with stains, curling edges - mediocre food with low quality ingredients - once we were served our food, we didn't interact with our waitress again until we finally had to flag her down to get our check - humid atmosphere with a fish smell Ugh.

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 being disappointed in Chipping Norton, I decided to head into the country seeking a quiet pub…read morefor lunch. This place was absolutely what I was looking for. The ambiance was exactly what you'd expect in a quiet inn in the countryside. Exposed beams and stone, a big hearth fireplace, clean tables, floors, bar area and restrooms. The service was attentive, but not overly so. I ordered quickly and the food was well timed. I had the fish and chips, which honestly had a bit too much batter for my taste, but the batter was so good, that didn't matter at all. The chips were perfect, and the peas were the perfect compliment. It is clear this is a local gathering spot. By the time I had finished, the bar area had filled with locals catching up and having a good time with each other. If you're touring the Cotswold's and in need of a perfect pub lunch, this place is it. Don't bother with trying to park or navigate the scaffolding of Chipping Norton. Head to the Chequers. It's well worth it.

This is the Cotswolds so its sheep country. My choice for dinner became easier. I'll have the lamb. When in Rome. Lemon and mint risotto was refreshing and lighter. The dining area is separated into a lower floor and a smaller alcove above the entry, decorated sheepishly with fleece like covers on the chairs. There is a good selection of beer and ale on tap and a full wine list, with by the glass, carafe and bottle options. We noted that Sheep has a sister restaurant across the street (The Porch House) under the same ownership and during the time of our visit the menu was virtually identical so do your homework before choosing.
