Arcle in Stratford-on-Avon

Seems well equipped shop and pleasant but very small cafe. Unfortunately, not very welcoming or friendly to visitors. They must only really want locals here.

Brilliant vegan lunch on a cold rainy Monday. Charcoal bread toasty with vegan cheese mustard and pickles, excellent plant based burger, couldn't fault it.

Use regularly.. good friendly service and always clean and tidy . Only a small unit so can get busy

Wonderful restaurant right on the bank of the Avon river. Small and cosy with super reliable food time and time again. Great for Sunday lunch, a mix of traditional and other modern dishes for startes and mains. Some great wines as well. Wonderful roast duck typically on the Sunday menu, and whilst a little pricey as a supplement, it is to die for. Great selection of specials make this great value restaurant ever interesting! UPDATE on new years day after a fab lunch on Christmas eve......pictures from New Years eve. Whatba perfect way to start the final festivities; a casylual country ramble to The Bridge Inn with my son for Christmas Eve lunch! Second in, we mused over the original yet familiar menu, side by side with an innovative Christmas special menu with a cheeky Peroni. I went for the seared scallops with crispy bacon served on a perfect complimenting crushed pea base... the scallops were perfectly cooked with a thin crispy Crust but succulent body and roe. My son had the perfect poached egg on a festive and rich black pudding potato cake. For mains, my son chose the satisfying steak burger, whilst I went for an old favourite, veal Holstein. The saltiness of the anchovies perfectly enhancing the egg and bed of freshly wilted spinach. I finished off with the traditional Christmas pudding, whilst my son opted for the ample assiette de fromage, with which we finished the velvety Cotés du Rhone. It's such a delight to visit the Bridge and I am looking forward to New Years day lunch for exactly the above reasons. Living in the surrounding areas to Bidford, we should be so appreciative of such a jewel in the culinary crown, without the need to hike of to Birmingham or Cheltenham along with the taxi fares and or drinks restrictions that that might incur. The Wetherspoons, Fullers and McDonald's of this world will always be there as long as punters have cash to spend, but like Purnells in Birmingham which has vapourised taking £38k of future customers money with them, we should all savor the delights of local excellent cooking such as this for as long as possible, and hopefully beyond the Bridges 20 year anniversary in 2025..... or risk being restricted to a baron culinary landscape in the future! Super, time after time and great value!

So tasty!!! First rate, yet again. Very impressed with this place hence repeat customers A complimentary new starter was brought for our table try and ‘wow ‘ was it delicious. Salmon with a mousse and gin and peppercorn dressing, I think.. fabulous! But next course surpassed expectations. 3 out of 4 of us selected Sea Bream with prawns in a chilli and lime dressing with jasmine rice and popadoms. This is not pub food, it was top restaurant flavours, quality and delivered in every aspect of a great dining experience at reasonable cost. Congrats to chef and owner Mark who is so friendly, informative and the perfect landlord… We will all be returning very soon with different friends and family. One of our party already made another booking in 2 weeks!! ☺️
