The Clarendon/ Cracking Boozers Ltd in Warwick

Brilliant Bottomless Brunch in Lemaington, the best choice of food and cocktails and all the staff make the place. Great fun with friends thank you!

Went to the pub quiz with adult children and friends. Students having a great time but unfortunately someone did not censor names of pub teams. Two were making tasteless jokes about 9/11 and neither staff or quiz master bothered to cut them. 3000 people died that day, older people like me watched it unfold and I just hope any American students or other visitors weren't there there that night as they'd have been upset and offended. I was. Crass and insensitive.

Fun, clean, nice people and good vibes.

We did the bottomless brunch as a group of 18 before a Stag do. It involved a lot of bets, asking our server (Ruby) for some unorthodox drinks and requests. The staff, specifically Ruby, were amazing with us, the drinks were rolling, the food lovely, and we had an amazing time. We would highly recommend to anyone thinking of doing the Bottomless Brunch!

Great food. Great music. Great people

Cruzcampo is £6.20 for a pint in what is effectively a student pub. I ordered the Peri chicken which was £13. Not expecting anything flash but the chicken was overcooked and tough and the garlic bread was like a rock. You only get 1 piece of chicken and 1 small piece of garlic bread by the way. This was on Sunday 25th August whoever the chef is needs a new job because he is impersonating a cook and I wouldn't trust them to make me beans on toast. Pay for the overpriced beer if you want but honestly do yourself a favour and avoid the food.

The Clarendon is officially dead, once rated 5/5, now 2/5 is probably generous. The quality is now comparable if not slightly better than whetherspoons. Once one of my favourite pubs the new owners have ruined it, and clearly the locals agree because the place is dead. No more craft beer, unless you count neck oil as craft (I don't). The food has gone down significantly in quality and the price has gone up.

The manager of this place is rude and unpleasant. Good atmosphere during sports events, decent pub , and nice bar staff. However, the management is not welcoming or hospitable at all.

I've never received such great customer service in my life and the food was amazing. Will deffinatley be coming here again.

Paige was amazing for bottemless bruch and kept the drinks flowing all day!

Just took the wife for a quick beer, great selection, monika was a great server, but the beer was rank. We had a moretti and a Beavertown Gamma Ray for £13.70, both tasted horrible, metallic mouldy line taste. Wouldn’t go again

Don't book to watch sport here, make you book an hour before the game then half of the TVs don't work anyway.

Came in with my partner for the Thursday Cocktail Deal and what an amazing pub! Great vibes, lovely staff and such good value for money. Will definitely be coming back soon 😊

I find this place very relaxed and very layer back In this situation .so nice to be in a place and feel very relaxed.

the burger here was great, the fries were thin and delicious and the atmosphere is always friendly

Souless, lifeless and empty at 9.30 on a Saturday evening ? Filthy toilets in an empty pub ? Maybe review your drink prices ? Two Moretti's and a bottle of Corona £18.10 !!!!

Nice place and atmosphere but £7.55 for a pint seems a bit excessive

Pretty boring if I'm honest, the food I wanted was out of stock then paid a ridiculous amount of money for average nachos.

Callum was great, amazing service

An entire vegan menu with super tasty food inc vegan pizza! Try the Bombay burger:)

Wonderful service from ophelia and geraldine

Gone right down the pan in recent years, don't bother coming here, £7.35 a pint of generic 'craft' beer, tiny portions of food, unfriendly, unknowledgeable staff. There's so many better places in Leamington these days.

Amazing friendly pub, was served by a lady called Lynda who made us feel very welcome along with the other young lady that was with her working. Will definitely visit again .

bar staff were lovely, geraldine was amazing full of life, banter like no one knows, paige was incredible. food was lovely, had the pizza it was great

I don’t usually leave reviews but god Monica you’re a legend Good drinks and most importantly friendly place Once of the best ones around here for drinks with friends <3

Lush food, amazing company and lovely staff!

Lynda kills the service and the food was great. Killer portions and killer drinks. Cheers Lynda 🍻

For burgers, tasty fries, wings etc The Clarendon does very well. Tasty American style food mixed with sports (multiple matches at any onetime). Great atmosphere and the pool tables were a bonus (albeit the cues were a little past their best).

Went for a Saturday afternoon bottomless brunch, unfortunately all the reviews I read were amazing (4.6/5) but our experience didn't live up to those, not even close! Very average food served cold, and drinks were ok but not great cocktails and way too much soda water in everything we ordered. Decor isn't great and the TVs were set very loud on the F1 which we really didn't want to watch, but couldn't hear ourselves talk. Overall disappointing and won't return.

Great wings and awesome service. Thank you Lads

We had the bottomless brunch and Lynda ensured that we had another drink in front of us within a minute of the previous ome being empty 👌

Had the most amazing bottomless brunch! Great drinks and food alongside amazing service by the wonderful Lynda. She was very attentive, making sure we always had a drink at hand and another to follow!

Lynda was amazing!! We had a bottomless brunch and was worth every penny. Fab cocktails and good food.

Staff are always friendly and helpful, nothing is ever too much trouble

We had the best experience ever! Lynda was such an amazing host and made sure we were looked after even with the place busy with the Rugby, the food was fantastic too!!

One of best pub in Leamington where you can enjoy your pint, playing pool and all others. Special thanks to Linda :):)

Tried contacting the Clarendon to hire their private room. Send a booking request online around 3 weeks ago. No response. Emailed 2 weeks ago. No response. Called today and the lady I spoke to interrupted me and put me through to a number I already said I didn't want to be transferred to. Clearly do not want to accommodate private bookings which is a shame as I'm sure my group would have spent a lot of money there too!

We had a fantastic time having our 2 hour bottomless brunch here! We both had chicken burgers with chips which were tasty and good size and then had a variety of cocktails as well as gin and tonics! The service was great! Highly recommend

Always good service. Food and drinks well priced too.

Great food, great service, all team members were very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was perfect, a great place to spend New Years Eve with friends. Thanks 😊

Great staff that are always happy to help. Atmosphere was perfect for my New Year celebrations. Ordered for dinner and we received quick and polite service. Will definitely be coming back.

Great service and Atmosphere. Food was Excellent would highly recommend

Great food and great selection of beers too sports venue

Went for drinks with a few friends to the Clarendon on Thursday, could not recommend the place more if I tried. Fantastic atmosphere, great choice of crafts which were half price that particular day, lovely service and we all felt extremely safe with current restrictions throughout our stay. Will definitely be returning!

Great food, great vegan options for myself as I’m a very passionate vegan and the vegan pizza was delicious it tasted like a dream. Great service from Pete and the bar man Adam

Excellent pub with great service. Perfect for my birthday drinks!

On Sunday night I was part of a 31-person group that held a university event at the clarendon pub. We pre-ordered food and pre-agreed prices but when we can to pay we were charged a different amount. We pointed this out to them but they refused to resolve the issue. We were initially told that they could not give us a receipt because the machine was broken. However, when we said we would not pay without one they magically fixed it and gave us one. Also, the manager (Adam) threatened to call the police and report us to our university. Our society will not be returning to his venue after such an unpleasant experience and would recommend others avoid it too.

Last week we ran a 31 person university event at the pub. We agreed the food package via e-mail first but when we came to pay we were overcharged and the manager (Adam) threatened to call the police and report us personally to our university if we didn’t pay. In addition he initially stated he couldn’t give us a receipt, only finding a way to produce one when we insisted we wouldn’t pay without one. Our society will never be returning and we would recommend groups avoid at all costs.

Good brunch,value for money on unlimited drinks for 2 hours,staff attentive with drinks orders

The food was delicious, as were the craft beers and ciders, but the cleanliness of the place left a bit to be desired. The music was too loud. It has good deals such as Wing Wednesdays and Tequila Tuesdays. I imagine it would be great for groups of friends looking to get drunk, but not appropriate for dates or other groups who want intimate conversations. The staff were polite. Table service would be nice.

Staying at Lemington Spa this weekend and wanted to find a pub with football and decent food and this place fitted the bill and has great reviews. I called up and spoke to Linda who was so helpful with picking me a table, advice on parking and a guide on the town - what a credit to the business. If the food is half as good as her service we will have a good evening. Thank you Linda

Used to be good but beware the patronizing and pretentious bar staff

This is a sports pub plane and simple. Reasonable selection of craft ales, including some Purity beers from just down the road in Alcester. The food is ok, but the main reason I've visited this place is to watch the sports. They always have the decent games on. And whilst it is really NOTHING fancy....good place to have a beer and watch the footy.

I booked a section of the bar for a surprise 60th birthday party and was not disappointed. From the prompt email correspondence regarding the booking to the actual night, it all ran so smoothly. The bar staff were great, especially Adam, who looked after us all evening. Thanks also to Linda, who dealt with our details during the day about what time the food and cake would come out. The kitchen staff laid on the most fantastic food, slider burgers, mini fish & chips, nachos, tacos, there was loads of it. So much, we gave a lot to some lovely grateful students! The atmosphere was just how I wanted it, chilled, relaxed and a great vibe. I'd recommend this place for any function any time. 10/10

Booked a table 3 weeks ahead, inadvertently put the wrong date after paying £10 deposit. Realised my mistake straight away and sent a message the same day to change it, they got back to me 2 days later to change it but they couldn't offer me the time I wanted as there was a rugby match on. They refused to return my £10 deposit even though they had 3 weeks notice as it was 'company policy' I could understand if I had cancelled a few days before but not this far ahead. I would of booked again at some point but I'll go elsewhere now. Disappointing!

Eng v Sam RWC - at least 80 + people in here, two bar staff serving, management should have better contingency plan sorted should staff not turn up, disappointing.

Great food, drinks and service from Lynda

Visited midweek with work colleagues staying in the area,we wanted a Poole table,watch the Champions league have quality burger and reasonably priced beer. We got all that from one table plus the bonus of polite attentive staff,a quiz and a friendly atmosphere. Also a huge thank you to staff who picked up and returned a mobile phone left behind from our group.

For some reason annoying quiz bloke’s microphone is unreasonably loud and he talks some crap every 4mins I have come up with the most genius business plan; silent disco, but for pub quizzes.

Had a fantastic evening watching the RWC, the food & service was excellent. Would like to say Linda was extremely friendly & helpful. Will be returning soon.

Great food, great beer and the place to go for live sports, the staff are great and are really friendly and helpful

This bar was great to visit. We went on a Thursday and were pleasantly surprised to find the entire cocktail menu was available at £3.50 per cocktail which is unheard of in Leamington! Needless to say we took advantage and had some great drinks. The bar manager was very chatty and welcoming, willing to talk about the bars history and would check in to see if everything was ok for us. The other bar staff were also friendly and helpful answering any and all questions. If you're the pub games sort you are well taken care of here with pool tables and other favourites. Very nice interior with quirky decor and styling. Would highly recommend this bar overall.

Friendly staff, perfect and happy to help. Lovely atmosphere and well priced drinks. Ordered food too and it was quick service. Definitely recommend

Came to the Clarendon last night to do the quiz, It was a great atmosphere and really busy, Pete was amazing and nothing was to much trouble even though it was really busy.

Great pub, with loads of big screen tvs, so great for sports. Great atmosphere and the staff are amazing, we even saw Ben Foster spend the evening in the pub.

Had a lovely visit here, the team were so lovely especially Dan who was so friendly and welcoming. Food was really nice and will definitely be back at some point.

Pub was really nice, Really good food, Good pints, Pete was really attentive, Looked after us on our night out.

Lovely pub with great selection and fair prices. Shout out to Dan, he was a delight

We were well looked after by the staff here and the food was phenomenal!! Reasonably priced, zero issues. Well worth a visit

Great place to come. Friendly staff with nice food and a great atmosphere. Busy Wednesday, dog friendly, quizzes.

We booked in for a bottomless brunch and had THE best time and THE best service by Linda. Highly recommend this place

Great value Bottomless brunch, there was 15 of us so kept Adam who served us on his toes. He kept the prosecco flowing and kept up with all our crazy cocktail requests. Was great that we didn't all need to upgrade or have the Bottomless brunch as usually places request the whole party have the same. Would definitely recommend

Legendary bar staff! Always fun and happy. Ready to take orders and speak to you about anything! LEGENDS!!!! Lynda is immense!!!

Love the chicken wings night here!

Me and Jemima went for a girly dinner after work, we had amazing Mac & Cheese. Linda who work at the pub was so lovely, she was so kind to check on us, a really bubbly lady.

Great food and atmosphere. Brilliant for sport. Adam and Linda were brilliant.

Great atmosphere. Sports on tv and good beverages! Thanks Lynda!

Absolutley fantastic. Place, 100% recommend to anyone, would come here 7/7 days if I could, awsome staff 😎

Hilarious staff, great food and service and very pleasant atmosphere!

We visited on an off chance. Ophelia and Lynda were amazing. Can't wait to return. Decent banter from the both of them.

This is our go-to place in Leamington. Great deals, great food, great staff. They’re always really friendly and accommodating especially with our babies! Special shout out to Linda the Legend.

Great experience for drinks at The Clarendon in a group. Lynda and Caz provided great service.

Amazing food and good atmosphere

Regularly visit the Clarendon due to its excellent quality food and drinks, great prices, friendly staff, and all round good vibes. Last night I lost my bag and the excellent service from Linda far exceeded my expectations as she helped me recover it and saved me a lot of stress. Thank you!!

Great pub for sport, nice beers on tap and a few games of pool. Atmosphere is great and live music on a Saturday too. Food is the only area for improvement. Quite pricey for something quite average. Whilst good variety on the menu, the quality is letting it down.

Don't come here for burgers, came out after 5 minutes, clearly microwaved and a sloppy mess that just barely matches the description. In no way worth the £14 it's listed at on the menu. Go to Libertine instead it's cheaper, even with the deal (thats raised in price), its round the corner and they actually cook the burger properly. Only reason to come here is the cheap pints on Thursday. Won't be eating here again 😑 Update: My stomach is now upset so I'm lowering my rating too one star. And I won't be calling you to resolve this, you had your chance and you failed.

Great student / sports pub. Definitely on the expensive side, but the Wednesday pub quiz makes up for it, which is the best I have ever attended! Would recommend!

Lynda was great, very welcoming. 10/10 wings and the quiz was great

Came in Thursday for the football and Linda gave excellent service. Highly recommended.

I was in The Clarendon on Saturday 08/04/23 for a works night out and the night, atmosphere and service was fantastic and I would just like to mention the lovely bar tender called Paige, I lost a sentimental ring and asked her if she could take my details and let me know if they find it. About 5 minutes later Paige came over to me with my ring that she found on the floor in the toilets so she must have gone off looking for it for me! You really went above and beyond to help me Paige THANK YOU!

Been coming here for just under 5 years and always a good vibe. Friendly staff and very quick service always plus great for watching sports and nice food as well

5* for Adam who looked after us on a bottomless brunch visit. His service was very good, he was attentive and clearly works hard. Pizza was good but first impressions weren't great so if it wasn't for Adam I don't think we would have stuck around. Thanks again!

Excellent atmosphere, worth the drive for me every time, good food menu, plenty choice for drinks and very friendly staff

Best thing about this place is Steve Quiz Master and ultimate wise barman. Food and drink options also really good. 1️⃣❤️

Came for a bottomless brunch, the range of drinks included was great, food and drinks were really nice, service was brilliant even though it was busy because of the rugby. Couldn’t fault it.

Don't really get this place. It's a decent set up for a sports bar but the drinks are just way too expensive. A pint of beer seems to be around £1-£1.50 more than most other places in Leam (NeckOil was £7.30!!). Prevents me returning.

Fine. However they promoted Cheltenham races to be shown on the TV but then failed to show the last two races. Even after complaining an being told it would be shown. I’d have gone elsewhere if they’d been honest about their coverage.

I've lived in Leamington for quite some years and tragically I have never been to the clarendon 🫠 having gone quite recently I just want to keep going back!! Warm and bright vibe, very friendly bar staff and plenty of room to sit! My favourite aspect has to be the cocktail tower 😍 I am absolutely in love with it!! The prices are high but on par with other upscale bars in Leamington and the quality is good :) definitely would go back!! Maybe for food this time 😂

Friendly staff, great Guinness and gave me VIP treatment to watch the football too
