The Bear Hotel in Stratford-on-Avon

Friendly staff and fantastic fish cakes!

Very friendly staff, nice selection of dishes at a reasonable price 👍👍👍

AOK - looks like a great place for OAPs to luncheon.

Fantastic meal yet again thanks and the young lady that took or order was very polite and always looks after everyone with professionalism and enthusiasm.The Bear is a fantastic place for good home cooked food the Stilton soup is so good . Highly recommend by far the best value meal in Alcester.

Fell upon this place by accident! We ate first and second course, too full for dessert!!! Both excellent and piping hot. When we got the bill we thought they’d made a mistake by not changing us for the drinks. When we asked her, had she forgotten them she said no she hadn’t. This was our bill! EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY

Really good food hot and really tasty Chilli. Service excellent and lovely waitress. Will definitely go again

Very good welcome staff very friendly 10/10 if I in area I will visit it again plus make very good coffee ☕ food was lovely 10/10

Ladys that meat for lunch Reccomend by a friend Booked in lovely menu Food was beautiful fresh cooked and hot Can recomend food from toasted sandwiches to lasagna

Nice pub, welcoming. Just felt £4.40 was excessive for a guiness surger can.

Our favourite place for food, we have been going here for years and have never had a bad meal. The owners are so welcoming and the food is always hot and freshly cooked. Charlotte is so friendly and great at her job. 10/10 on everything about this place.

Love eating here! Staff are great, and the food is always good.

Lovely pub in heart of Alcester, nice public areas, staff friendly and helpful. Food was excellent nice home cooked food. You must try 👍👍

Basic food done really well. Drinks done well with hot cups for coffee really fresh pipes for the on tap drinks. Food great food for great prices. The one person serving was everywhere looking after everyone absolutely amazing.

A very hospitable and kind people

Lovely pub excellent food and service very friendly large portions and value for money . The only fault the heating could be turned up a bit but will definitely recommend

The Bear is our usual lunch destination when walking around Alcester. It is an interesting old coaching inn with some tastful modernisation. Their menus are extensive and they have great veggie options all reasonably priced. Food is hot, tasty, arrives quickly and service is always friendly. Note - we usually add a shared bowl of chips as they are the best chips in the known universe. They usually have a couple of nice beers on tap with a good selection of drinks. If you try the Bear, like us, you will probably want to go back!

Beautifully cooked and presented home cooked food. Pleasant staff.

One of our favourite places! Food is lovely and all homemade and the waitress is so polite, sorry I can’t remember her name.

Had a really great meal here. So many good choices on the menu! Staff were really friendly.

Decent beer and good place to watch sport

Love this place, the food is always lovely the side salad is always fresh and well presented. Charlotte the waitress is a really lovely friendly girl, she works so hard and is often run of her feet but is always smiling. Charlotte needs some help...

I came on here with my family we had great service and great food . If we pass this way again we will sure to call in 😄👍

So clean and with beautifully maintained garden area.

Lovely pub,very enjoyable baguette in the beer garden, friendly efficient staff,very clean facilities definitely recommend

Been in today for food . Could not recommend this place more . Was warned that the food might take some time to come out . But this was fine because the Real ale was superb 😁 and the food was worth the weight every dish individually cooked come out piping hot good size portions could not finish the plate 😋 Will definitely be going back 👍🏻

Always a warm & friendly pub....

Excellent, went in for a snack lunch of soup and sandwich which was wonderful. The lady that served us was very good, pleasant and friendly also received our meal very promptly.

Good food with great staff. They don't sell ales.

Nice out the back in the garden/patio area

Very good good food friendly staff good service

Had lunch at the Bear today with a group of walkers. I cannot speak too highly about this experience. The food was well presented, at a reasonable price, while the service, provided by Charlotte, was second to none. We all felt very Covid safe. Well done to the Bear! We will be returning!!

Fantastic food and the staff are lovely xx

Excellent value for money for delicious cooked meal. Spacious pub. Lovely pub garden.

Lovely fresh food good service experience very good

Great village pub with friendly staff. Cosy lounge a lovely outside garden.

A charming place. I come for lunch about once a month, and always get lovely food and a superb ale! Staff are young but very polite, welcoming and efficient. Without doubt my favourite pub lunch stop.

Great food, nice limited selection of beers, friendly, helpful staff.

Great food and great service. Very welcoming

Very friendly and nice beer garden to soak up the sun

Absolutely fantastic food was amazing staff friendly lovely outside seating area and all reasonably priced couldn't ask for more.

Friendly landlord and pub staff. Are very diligent on process to help prevent Covid. Regularly show Premier League football with plenty of screens around the rooms. Nice lounge area. I haven't tried the food.

Great pub in centre of town serving excellent value well cooked meals

Good beer, very good staff, comfortable warm atmosphere, made to feel welcome.

Vivid safe, friendly staff, great food and beer.

Good food, good selection of drinks and very friendly staff. Nice beer garden too

We had already eaten but what was on the tables served to some customers it very tempting and tasty .We will go there next time we are in Alcester ..A very pleasant English town and location of a very famous film that was shot here .

We had a wonderful meal at the Bear yesterday. We always take visitors there, we never been disappointed the food is always great ! Lots of room and lovely staff after dinner we met up with more family in the large garden Thank you to all the staff see you again soon x

Very welcoming, excellent service, very nice lunch.

Would have given 4 stars but the sausages (with chips) were very cheap sausages and detracted from the whole meal, they were ok but can't say they were nice. I wasn't expecting gourmet sausages but I did expect more than just 3 frozen generic sausages bought in a supermarket. Could and should do better!

Comfortable atmosphere, in period decor, busy but helpful staff, tasty food for a good price

Food was ok, although order was wrong and they switched the lights off at 7pm. Large pub and cold. No atmosphere.

Lovely food and atmosphere celebrating Lily's christening.

Had a great evening with a friend here. Excellent value food, all freshly cooked. Fantastic sausage egg and chips followed by chocolate pudding and custard. Definitely going back again

Nice pub but no disabled toilets

Had a very late lunch at the pub. Food was freshly cooked so piping hot with ample portions. Staff friendly and tables cleared quickly. I had the ham, egg and chips, hubby had scampi, which we both enjoyed.

Popped in for a sandwich Sunday lunchtime. Nice food, good staff and comfortable.

Lovely food . Nice friendly staff

nice friendly staff, great service

Fantastic wee lunch at The Bear today. Couldn't fault a single thing, from the wonderfully welcoming young lady behind the bar (Charlotte?), the gorgeous hot soup and egg and chips, to the lovely lad who was waiting on table. All brilliant. We'll be calling again 😊💜

Food quickly served and excellent, the waitress was extremely friendly and helpful. Would definately reccomend this place

lovely meal very friendly good beer definitely go again our 4 meals were very good

Lovely pub, sexiest chef on the planet 😃

Good simple food at the right price...and the best chips I've ever had

Good service, great food and price.

Very good place to have dinner,really enjoyed it. Wonderful service.

Great food and drink pleasant staff.

Great food, service exceptional, highly recommend!

Great food as always and fantastic service, warm and welcoming

Nice quiet pint at lunch time. Good wholesome chilli con carne with cheese, tortilla chips, salsa and soured cream. Good value, good stella and washed down with a good shiraz...by the glass!

Great service and good realistically priced food

Very friendly welcoming staff and the freshly cooked meals are amazing. Would definately recommend for anyone to choose any meal off the vast resonably priced menu.

Excellent Chile con carne freshly cooked but was given chips when I ordered rice. Great bread & butter pud to follow. I will be back.

My favorite pub in Alcester! Lovely staff, amazing food at decent prices. A good range of drinks and a nice sized garden.

Vraiment très sympa, la jeune fille au bar est super sympa et le cadre pittoresque. Je recommande !

Brilliant staff. Fantastic food. Best mousakka around!

Excellent service character place

Good home cooked meal in a strange pub. No liquid soap in the toilet, not easy to pay the bill.

Very good food...and excellent service

Great pub in a lovely village, decent choice of ales, and happy to serve tea or coffee if you prefer. ♥️ Alcester

Selected this place out of a choice of interesting looking places in this town for a quick lunch time beer. Not dissapointed. Quick cheerful service with a good range of ales which included at least 4 ciders. Did not eat but the food I did see being served looked good.
