Best Modern European Restaurants in Shipston-On-Stour

Excellent food and service as ever. I have lived and dined in Stratford for 18 years and this restaurant, in my opinion, is the best on Sheep Street. Why do I say that? Not only is the food consistently good and I have never had a bad meal, but the staff are absolutely fantastic.

A lovely olde worlde restaurant. Friendly staff, good menu and lovely food.

When my disabled partner and I visited the Royal Oak, the staff were excellent, both in their friendliness and practical assistance. The service all through the meal was efficient and informative. The tasting menu was an exciting array of flavours , well seasoned and all of the ingredients were of high quality. The evening was a real delight and we recommend highly.

Celebrating my niece's eighteenth birthday at Simpsons was a delightful return to a culinary haven I've cherished for three decades. My journey with Simpsons began in its Kenilworth incarnation when I was eighteen, and I've been a loyal supporter ever since, following its evolution to Birmingham and enjoying countless special occasions, including the Eureka Cooking School, Antona at Home, and most recently, Soko. This visit was a testament to the consistently exceptional standards I've come to expect. From the warm welcome at the front of house to the impeccable attentiveness of the serving team, we felt genuinely valued and meticulously looked after. We opted for the prestige menu, and I was blown away by the plant-based offering. The creativity and depth of flavour were extraordinary, with a fascinating array of superfoods woven into each dish. The signature beetroot dish, in particular, was an absolute masterpiece – a testament to the kitchen's artistry and innovation. The attention to detail was evident in every aspect of our experience. The celebratory card and the exquisite Soko chocolates were a thoughtful and much-appreciated touch, adding an extra layer of warmth to the occasion. Simpsons continues to be a shining example of fine dining done right. It's where culinary excellence meets genuine hospitality, creating an unforgettable experience. Whether you're a long-time admirer like myself or a first-time visitor, I wholeheartedly recommend Simpsons for any special occasion or an extraordinary dining experience.

We went for Valentine's Day and had a lovely time. Really good food. The wine list was nice.
