The Broom Tavern in Stratford-on-Avon

The guys here were great at accommodating our group and dealt with fussy members well. I had the Tavern Bookmaker sandwich which was super - Everyone's choices were well presented and I'm told were delicious

Wonderful staff, wonderful atmosphere and wonderful food! Absolutely recommend

Very good food, the best for miles! Although it was after lunch the kitchen was still open which was a pleasant surprise and a nice change from many other places we've been to!

Excellent food from a quality high standard Chef, excellent service, excellent trained Staff, reasonable pricing. Would certainly recommend 😬

Stayed near here for a long weekend and went here on our last day. Gutted we did not find this gem on our first day. The pub was lovely. Homely English style pub nicely set out. We had Sunday lunch. All the staff were lovely and welcoming. They were very attentive. Friendly and chatty but did not overstay their welcome. We had a roast dinner which was delicious (cauliflower cheese was to die for and I don't usually like it but i could have licked the bowl out) - followed by 2 scrummy puds. All the food coming out looked wonderful. I would not describe it as pub grub. More upmarket. No complaints at all. I would definitely recommend a visit to eat or just drink . Hope we get the opportunity to do so again.

Used the tavern on Wednesday the 28th August my wife had a pot of tea and half a pint for me she gave the lady at the bar 20 pound but only got chance back from ten pounds we had a discussion about the it bar lady said it was tenpounds not 20 pounds will not be coming back to the teen

Top place. Lots of meals here and never let's us down. Real fresh food prepared by a chef. Broom is spoilt by great places to eat

Sunday roasts are next level such a strong menu. Trio roast was sublime. Service was excellent!!

Place has definitely changed since my sisters' last visit when the original owners used to cook themselves. We had a table reserved for about 6.30pm, parking was no problem. We were shown to our table, menus given , drinks order taken, staff friendly & polite. We chose the belly pork, fish n'chips, lamb with greek salad. Portions were normal, prices acceptable , by about 8pm the place was pretty much full.

What a fabulous find and the most amazing Sunday lunch, the lady who headed up front of house was great as were the rest of the crew, about to move to the area and will certainly be back for more, I had the lamb and my partner had the chicken which were delicious, the lady manager brought us a slice of beef to sample, I can honestly say that it was the most tender and flavoursome beef I have ever tasted, highly recommended

Best pub roast for a long time.

Ice cream was nowhere near as good as mentioned on other reviews @£2.50 a scoop it's very overpriced and we found a piece of plastic in ours. As we went just for that I can't comment on anything else. So to be fair have given top marks for service and atmosphere 🫡

Really tasty Sunday lunch in a lovely setting. The pub is busy and bustling, but the staff are kind and friendly. The Sunday lunch was delicious, with unusual and complementary veg. Puddings were tasty and really well presented.

Great food! This was a lunch stop on our Yorkshire to Devon journey and we’ll be back. Food quality was excellent with plenty to choose from for different tastes and appetites. The lunch deal was good. I had squid which was very tender and well cooked. The burger was delicious - in ciabatta with a good Smokey flavour and lots of fillings. Good local ales and a good range of others brews on tap. Plenty of different parts to sit in both in and out. Dogs allowed in the bar.

Amazingly good food! Even the steak came with the desired degree of doneness.

This was recommended to us by some friends & wow what can I say it was incredible , from the moment we walked in we were greeted with a friendly smile & very welcoming . The food is divine I can highly recommended this , everything is fresh home made & locally sourced . They do a theme menu which looked amazing we chose off the main menu . We will be back & have recommended it to our family & friends . Thank you

Good service and cheerful staff. Good tasty and reasonable price

Great selection of gluten free items on the menu. Great weekly themed special menus. Homemade breads. Every week they have a themed week of specials, which are well thought out and amazing. The staff are really friendly and make you feel welcome. Excellent. Well worth a visit.

We hosted a family reunion at the Broom Tavern and it couldn't have gone better. We put in our food orders 48 hours in advance which made it possible for there to not be much delay before eating a wonderful meal together. The outdoor garden provided a great venue for chit chat and for the kids to run around. Thanks so much Kelly and staff!

Visited first time today with my friend who lives locally. Had a simel lunch of beef open sandwich and chips. Presented lovely, even flower petals. Home made bread, loads of beef. Home made Horseradish sauce! Never had that when eating out. Plus real pepper/salt grinders! Wish I lived nearer.

Hard to beat food pub locally. Consistently quality dishes with changing menus, independent pub, owner ensures quality with ales also. 👌

Out of this world food!!! Can't think of a stronger superlative 😁😁

Nice atmosphere, kids menu and things other than roast available on Sunday. A number of tables outside. Extensive bar menu including a variety on tap.

Found this little gem on a Sunday drive, very friendly, helpful staff and wonderful roast dinner. Will be going back for sure. Red Arrows flying over made it spectacular.

A really lovely pub, great food and service, would highly recommend. We popped in for a late lunch and truly enjoyed it. We'll be back!

Staff were great fitted us in on short notice for meal.

Beautifully presented tasty food, served well in a lovely venue.

Best restaurant for miles! Excellent gluten-free options! :)

One of the best roasts I’ve ever had in the Cotswolds, no expectations as can never tell with Sunday roasts,but was pleasantly surprised by the quality and after seeing all the reviews I can see why definitely will be back any chance we get.

Excellent Thai fish curry good portion and quality.

Stopped here with friends while out for a walk. I can't comment on the food because we didn't eat here, but the range of beers and ales was decent. Nice looking pub with plenty of indoor and outdoor space.

Great Place and a new themed menu every week

Lovely restaurant, spotlessly clean, great food and friendly efficient staff. Its a favourite place for us.

Excellent dinner tonight. Good food cooked from scratch. Gluten free options which were amazing. Can thoroughly recommend. Good prices too.

A big shout out to my special place, The Broom Tavern, I've been frequenting it for years and always have exceptional food and a lovely welcome in a superb setting , my recent milestone birthday could only be held there , and they all certainly rose to the occasion, it was made extra special especial by Kirsty and Nicky, a night to remember! Ali x

Gluten free haven and so much choice Was refreshing to have homemade food and a great selection felt like normality for me was Resumed !!! Great service and everything was explained and we made to feel very welcome will be back

First visit on the recommendation of my son. They cater for all intolerances, allergies etc. They make a huge effort to get it right. The staff were extremely helpful and considerate. Thank you

Absolutely perfect family birthday celebrations here last weekend. Well done Kirsty and team . More detail on tripadvisor but I can't fault you.

Had a lovely Christmas eve family celebration meal at the Broom Tavern. Staff were great as usual, welcoming, friendly and took great care of us. Food was fantastic, something for everyone, 89 to 29, picky to anything goes, everyone was happy. We only found the Tavern last year but now make it our go to place.

Lovely friendly staff and food. Went for the Sunday lunch and could not fault. Well deserved 5 star would highly recomend. Definately going back

The food here is excellent. The owners rescued this beautiful old building from a derelict wreck. So I am always happy to spend my time and a bit of money here. The chefs always have interesting themes running based on international cuisines.

Siamo stati qui alcune volte, è sempre molto soddisfacente. Per il primo giorno dell'anno abbiamo mangiato con un menù speciale delle feste, ottime le zuppe e uno splendido piatto freddo misto! Le porzioni sono abbondanti! Le tagliatelle che ha preso mio marito erano troppo cotte, peccato! Sempre gentilissimo il personale!

Christmas lunch food was disgusting, couldn’t eat any of it. Poor drinks service, waited over 40mins to order drinks, starters were inedible, beef of main course still had a pulse it was that raw, veg far too hard, couldn’t cut it, covered in sage. Cheese board was very disappointing, couldn’t even bite the crackers what ever they were made of. Mince pies we literally couldn’t cut or bite. The coffee was decent, the service was not up too much. Very disappointing. 100% avoid.

The . 5 star say it all food location staff. Atmosphere. Just fantastic love coming here ❤️

We decided on the Broom Tavern for our annual family Christmas lunch and was not disappointed. The quality of the food was excellent and the service spot on especially catering for 14 people. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal and the atmosphere was very festive. I will be certainly going back to the Tavern for another amazing meal.

1st meal here today treated for my birthday, absolutely outstanding food and that’s an understatement, I had the fish and it was so light and fluffy it could be cut with a straw, my girlfriend had the chicken and it was very soft and juicy, everything was outstanding, well worth a visit you won’t be disappointed, service amazing from Nicky

Late evening meal for two.The venue was quite busy with a nice comfortable atmosphere. Reminiscent olde world charm of a coaching inn was evident.Service from the kitchen was effective & efficient. Very high quality meals with sensible & stylish.The Chicken Milanese was a treat with subtle flavours that were both a surprise discovery & a pleasure to experience. Local produce is an effective asset for this kitchen. The menus is extensive so it will be difficult to be disappointed . It is also evident the waiting staff take pride in that they are attentive, knowledgeable around the menus & make patrons very welcome & feel at ease. No hesitation on my part for a future repeat visit.

A Sunday evening, not usually the best time for a meal out. But The Tavern at Broom bucked that generalisation. We both had the Sunday roast, and although I'm not a fan of meat based dishes even I had to admit that it was amazing... the beef was done to perfection and the blend of several types of vegetables enhanced it beautifully. Happy as we were with the main course, we decided to check out the dessert menu and were delighted to find that they served an eclectic selection of HOME MADE ice creams and sorbets. Including our favourite liquorice (with lemon meringue) flavour. An unlikely combination, possibly, but it worked. And all of this served by Lauren (friendly, informative, efficient) who made time to chat. At £50 for two, including drinks, dessert and a tip it was very reasonable value too.

This may have been an off day, but the awards, pictures and reviews had us expecting great things. Staff were really friendly and attentive. Menu reads well and lots of choice even for a Sunday lunch like we had today. Sadly the food was mediocre, not very warm, and quite bland. Maybe it was the 4pm time and being in between main service times, but the food felt like it had been sitting for some time. On a plus side the meat (I had the trio) was good, the potatoes and vegetables not so good. Great atmosphere in the main bar and looked to be a a well liked cosy village pub for a drink or two.

Enjoyed dining experience. Restaurant busy for mid week. Nice menu selection liked the idea of something different

Four of us had Sunday lunch here. Service was friendly and efficient. Food was reasonably priced and good portions. The roasts were lovely but our only negative would be the Yorkshire puddings. They were huge but tasteless. But overall a good experience.

Nice service, nice food, tho the beef Wellington is more of a stewing steak than a fillet (which it states to be fair) it was presented well and had nice flavours. Would eat here again. Fish & chips is highly recommended.

The food is at a very good standard, busy place, and the staff are all friendly.

The food was excellent we went with our nextdoor nabours mr and mrs Bowden who are there a lot food was delicious

We have just had a fantastic 2 course dinner ,baked camabert,then a beef wellington ,and a lasagne ,the beef melted in my mouth,pastry was thin as it should be with a beautiful taste ,the starter was absolutely gorgeous,firstly it was a large cheese filled with baked garlic,breads and side salad ,we were so full we couldn't contemplate a sweet . That was the meal ,as for the staff,I don't think we have ever been to a pub with such lovely,friendly accommodating staff,behind the bar and waiting on tables ,wish we lived closer ,can't recommend this pub enough ***** stars

We dropped in early (5.30 pm) on a Monday evening without a reservation and were warmly received. The pub was quite busy with friendly locals having an early evening drink and there was a pleasant atmosphere. Food quality, service and beer were all very good, will definitely visit again if we are in the area - recommended!

Quick service, tasty food and friendly staff

The food including gf options was up to its usual excellent standard. Service was also good. Unfortunately we were next to a table of six loud mouthed drunk people who were so loud that it destroyed the ambiance of the dinner for all other diners. Its all very well gaffawing and shouting at your own jokes while quaffing far too much beer but they ruined an otherwise lovely evening. Couldn't even hear the conversation at our own table.

Highly recommended Sunday roast! First timers here and we came on recommendation. It's obvious why! The pub was packed out and still they kept on coming. That did not stop service being a top priority. We didn't book, cos that's just how we roll, and despite the pub being packed out we asked if we could eat in the covered outside area, which was accommodated without issue. Despite apologies for the wait from the attentive, polite and well trained staff I wouldn't consider it a wait at all. The outside area was spaciously separated and would be cool enough in summer and despite a crazy downpour was plenty warm enough for us, with patio heaters available around the area should they be required. We will definitely be returning to sample some weekday lunchtime offerings and maybe a cheeky date night treat. Beautiful historic pub, just as we like them.

Excellent evening really enjoyed The Big Khuna - always consistently good at The Tavern !

The area around the bar still feels like a nice pub.

Had Sunday lunch here. Extremely good, excellent service and the largest Yorkshire puddings I've ever seen!

Good welcome,unusual to see food in a basket,very 70s 80s,but have to say it was excellent. Dog was made very welcome,the building is lovely, old@worldy interior, lots of nooks @ crannies.would love to return.

Lovely place! Great food and staff. Brought me wrong, dearer wine, but charged me for the cheaper wine I had ordered. Fab yorkies.

Excellent food served well and hot. Had starters which though delicious we didn't really need. We had char sui pork, pate & Feta tart. All delicious. The Sunday lunches were amazing. Giant Yorkies, delicious cauliflower cheese & excellent roast beef. I couldn't finish it! Next time I won't have the starter! We will be back!

An excellent venue for a cycling club lunch for around 20 people. The food and service is excellent and I can thoroughly recommend it. There is an extensive lunch time menu with a wide choice of sandwiches breads and filling.

This was out first visit to The Tavern after a friend recommended it. We were not disappointed !! Great staff who were just there when we needed more drinks etc. The crispy squid was fabulous,so many different flavours on the plate made it a great dish. The Pad Thai was also delicious with fab flavours again. I think whatever we would have chosen it would have been great,which is down to a very good,capable chef, well done !!! We will definitely be back soon !!!!

We visited for a light lunch with friends. There was a nice range of sandwiches, both fillings and a fabulous choice of breads. Sadly, the salad garnish was soggy: the dressing had been on the leaves for too long There were good lunch meal deals available - but that was more substantial than we were looking for Service was entirely adequate but staff did seem rather harassed: they were quite busy. There is lots of seating available, including outside

Dropped in here by off chance and what a find ! Very welcoming staff. Service out standing as was the food. Just wish this was my local. Cannot fault in anyway. Will definitely go back when in the area again

Would have given 5 stars but the southern fried chicken was a real let down, to make it look bigger, they coated in so many breadcrumbs (which were burnt) the chicken was awful, a small thigh which was really fatty. I did mention how awful it was and they took it off the bill for me. Apart from that, the rest of it was lovely! It hasn't put me off going, I just wouldn't order that again.

Some of the best food we've had anywhere and priced very reasonably.

Great food & staff, lovely atmosphere

Really nice atmosphere and friendly staff. A warm welcome is always a good start to the evening. We were seated quickly and drinks order taken almost immediately. The food was amazing and the best presentation I have seen in some time. Every dish we had had a huge amount of attention to detail. The amount of care and attention to the puddings was second to none with a huge choice of ice creams. Definitely a massive step up from a previous visit a while ago. Highly recommended !!

Went for a meal with my partner to celebrate my birthday and our engagement. The staff at the tavern went above and beyond and added a few touches to make our experience perfect. The food was fantastic. Would recommend to anyone. We will be back. Thank you

This place I can say is the best in Warwickshire! The food is delicious and consistently good. We come here regularly and have eaten at different times. Breakfast/lunch/dinner all fab. Loads of choice and in the week different themes, also fantastic. We won’t go anywhere else for a Sunday roast, always good!! And The Ice-cream is the best we have had in a long time!! So tasty. Love this place, don’t change the chef!!!!

Delicious Sunday roast, very good quality meat and tasty veg. You looked after our dietary requirements perfectly thank you!

Grew up in the Alcester area and know many of the pubs well but a return to the Tavern was pretty disappointing. Menu is massively uninspiring (pizza, burger, F&C are the main fare) and going off-piste for the fish pie was also pretty bland and actually quite pricey (it was POA on the menu). Dessert choices were also less than exciting. The kids were the only takers and did not even manage to finish the summer fruit waffle which had been drowned in chocolate sauce. Irish Coffees were excellent and service was just fine Nothing was wrong as such but I think there is so much better elsewhere in the area. Really hope they will rethink the menu variety.

Lovely local pub with an adventurous menu and great choice of drinks.This week was Greek Specials- breads with oil & vinegar + tspenade + herb buttet = spot on, lamb shoulder & feta glaze = nostimos, honey & lemon chicken= bit disappointing, raspberry pannacotta= poly kalos. The chocolate plate was declared a winner by my OH. Good coffee with home made shortbread topped it off in style. Just a pity the chicken did not meet the same high standard. 4/5 overall

Amazing breakfast! One of the best in the area by far. Great start to a Saturday having a full English and the shortbread with the latte was first class

Rude obnoxious locals stuffing the bar inconsistent staff random discounts but not real locals

Try as i may I realy want to like this pub ?? But it is horrible inconsistent and both the new so called locals and key members of staff are obnoxious and rude. There are exceptions some staff are outstanding Ollie. But on the whole this place can not make its mind up if its a pub or a restaurant ???? Locals scramble to the bar stools with no regard for anyone except the. Self. Not bothering to see there us anyone that may be more in need of a bar stool ( MS and other disabilitys ) If you have fun you are scorned upon for laughing or raising your spirits Dinners take priority over drinkers when the place is full ? But when its slow then its ok for them to take your money There are discounts randomly given to some drinkers and not others We have dined there with mixed reviews the place is really not good there is no consistency and its pot luck if you get a welcome or a rebuff.

The reviews and pictures of the food looked pretty good which is what bought us here in the first place. The intention was a nice meal to end our holiday away. Have to say it was a real disappointment, the food looked the part but really was bland. Me and my partner had the steak burger, the meat was fatty tasting, grey in colour and just bland almost like it had been boiled. My bacon was well done my partners was underdone. The chips were really soggy and no where near "triple cooked chips" my partner even left his chips due to some of them being raw. The fact we had the same dish yet there was so much inconsistenty is really poor. I know its pub food but for a quiet Thursday evening this really should of been better. Shame, will definitely not be returning or recommending.

Went for Sunday Lunch Very friendly atmosphere and very nice olde worlde rooms A great choice for Sunday Roasts we had the beef it was superb Great service and excellent portions the main coarse was more than enough on its own Very quiet peaceful setting plenty of outside space and very dog friendly Will deffinately come again

The food today was superb. My grandaughter had carbonnara and I had American nachos with pulled brisket and cheese absolutely gorgeous and then brownies and waffles. All were served beautifully and service very friendly. Highly recommend the broom.tavern.

Quite simply the most impressive pub experience I have had for years. The food is nothing short of superb, clearly prepared with care, imagination and real talent and the chefs obviously pride themselves in sourcing quality local produce. The staff are attentive and so friendly. Give them a try - you will not be disappointed. This has restored my faith in pubs! For the record, we had chicken burger (amazing) and feta, onion and sun-dried tomato tart with chips (also top quality) plus home made ice cream (choc and orange marmalade (winner!!).

If you ever are in Broom this place is an absolute must. Everything is perfect in this 16th Century pub.

Excellent service and food. First class!!!

Great place,good fab and staff very welcoming, something for everyone.

Excellent food. Really appreciate the seasonal flavours. Perfect.

Very good. Service was good, quick. Food was freshly cooked & very nice . Can't complain at all . Great deserts

5 very happy customers Food was exceptional Service was excellent Atmosphere was great What a beautiful brilliant find All 5 left in a food coma!

Just had one of the best Sunday Roasts ever. The beef and Rioja gravy are to die for, and the veggies looked beautiful. Lovely service, with plenty of seating options outside (covered, open, under trees) and in. Dog friendly.

Nice pub. 3 cask ales, however all pale ale. Good atmosphere.

Excellent quality pub food in a cosy, traditional pub environment with good, attentive service. Popped in for a quick lunch and will certainly be returning!

Was very busy (we visited on night of the coronation) but food was fantastic and perfectly cooked. Staff were lovely too.

The meals at the Broom Tavern are delicious. Always different from the usual pub food. Congratulations to the chef.

Fantastic atmosphere, very attentive staff. We had Sunday roasts and they were absolutely delicious. The cauliflower cheese is to die for ! The vegetarian roast was amazing too. I would highly recommend this place, and we will definitely be returning soon.

Excellent food and service. Well worth a visit

We had the most lovely Sunday lunch out at The Tavern , Broom. Well worth the trip from Worcestershire to Warwickshire! What was a joy for me ( apart from the warm welcome and good service) was the extensive GF menu- nearly everything was possible...

Lovely food great service have made a booking to go back would well recommend a visit you can eat outside or inside
