The Old Fleece in Stroud - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Situated on a busy road with large car park, once inside it was warm and welcoming with an open fire. Great service throughout our meal and the food was outstanding, great choice and beautifully presented. Most definitely recommend.

Ordered three vegetarian wellingtons , nice filling pastry barely cooked on top and raw on the bottom. No apologies given when I complained . Paid most of the bill without a tip but again no apologies when I settled up , just left to walk out on our own . Will not be returning.

Went for a traditional Sunday roast with family, as part of a birthday celebration. we were greeted at the door with smiles, very well looked after and the food was excellent, we would thoroughly recommend the Old Fleece

Couldn't be better. Perfect food; lovely staff; speedy service. Best Sunday roast this side of my mum's place. We will be back in a hurry, thank you.

The food was great but the service was terrible, waiting 20 mins to have our drinks order taken and then another 40 mins to be served our food (it wasn't busy). The food order was wrong and so had to be sent back. We were sat outside in the marquee which was cold.

Beautiful venue and amazing food. The service was first class, and we will be visiting again . My husband found the steak perfectly cooked to his taste. 😊

The service was friendly and efficient. The food was excellent - rich beef bourguignon which was really tender and a steak cooked just as requested. The dessert - orange and cardamon panna cotta was not overly sweet and the orange sauce topping was perfect. Sticky toffee pudding was much enjoyed too. Portion sizes are perfect and don't leave you feeling too full.

The food was very good with great service. I have had Sunday lunch here several times and always been good. Really like this place as able to take our dog with us.

We had a wonderful Saturday night at The Old Fleece with our son and his fiancée. The skin-on haddock and chips were delicious, and the beef bourguignon was a hit. The service was excellent, and the puddings were a delightful conclusion to a fantastic meal. Highly recommend for a delightful dining experience!

The Old Fleece used to enjoy a reputation for great food at reasonable prices. It has a marvellous interior and the fire and candles on every table are a nice touch, but...I didn't think either the service or the food was particulary good or especially good value. I've had better for less money elsewhere sadly. We took friends who were visiting from abroad. One of them was keen to try Ale but the only option on tap was a Christmas Ale i.e. left over from the lead up to Christmas. Hardly inspiring. Why no local ales? We won't be rushing back but I wish them all the best. Maybe it's just during the off-season or the post-Christmas lull that things slide a bit. Let's hope so, it's a lovely place.

The staff at the Old Fleece are always welcoming and helpful. The food is great, especially the desserts. A good pub lunch.

Meeting up with friends for lunch on a chilly Saturday, the welcome could not have been warmer. Great choice of food - we opted for mains and a pudding and everything was superb. Lovely relaxed atmosphere and we look forward to returning.

Haven't been to the Old Fleece for a while and decided to take my Step Father for a birthday lunch meal with my three grown up sons. Had a wonderful tasty meal- I had the chicken ballotine very tasty with little bits of liver on plate- delicious. Hubby had beef bourguignon. Pork tenderloin for one of my sons. The rest had the 10oz steak burger all really delicious with chips. Great pub lovely surroundings and good food at a reasonable price.

Fantastic friendly staff who provided quick and efficient service. Food was tasty and well presented.

We booked to stay here for one night. Unfortunately there was a problem with the room at 11pm. It wasn't major and we were happy to stay there, but the manager insisted on moving us to a beautiful suite on the top floor of the hotel. He was very kind, helpful and generous and gave us a free breakfast at the Old Lodge, their sister establishment close by. We weren't expecting it and didn't ask but it was a very welcome gesture. Would definately stay here again.

The pub is very cosy , nice and clean The initial wait for the dinner was very long However when the food came out it wasn’t disappointing, perfect dinner ,not keen on the gravy however , and the pudding was the best. Sticky toffee pudding...

Good food and great service on a busy Boxing Day afternoon. We booked ahead as a table of 5, the pub was quite busy with tables of people eating, drinking and lots of dogs. Everything we wanted from the menu was available and the team...

Lovely place, great food and excellent service 😀 variety of options available, catered to vegans and dogs were allowed too

This is a pub we return to time after time, the service is always excellent, friendly and helpful and the food is interesting, not the usual pub grub at all!

Visited for Sunday roast. The pub was warm the welcome was warm . Good choice on the menu , good size portions. Highly recommend

It was our first time at The old Fleece for sunday lunch. The food was excellent and hot and the service was attentive.

We had a fantastic impromptu Sunday lunch. The food and service was amazing! We were looking for somewhere to eat late (5pm)and the roast was impressive. Not easy to serve a sunday roast all day and keep it succulent is my guess. Will definitely be...

Our 3rd visit excellent food friendly welcoming staff great wine and beer . We will be back when we are in the area.

A good place to eat in general but a bit disappointed by the level of service when visiting last time & getting charged £6 for 2 extra bread rolls to go with the £45 worth of starters we had as the ones that came with...

Stayed in Next-door Airbnb apartment. Had great drinks on one night and best Sunday Lunch I’ve had in ages on another day. Fantastic food, coffee and house wine. Great atmosphere. Interesting toilets.

The restaurant catered really well for our party of 12. The table was ready on time, the staff were all helpful and friendly and all our food choices were delicious. Very nice ambience to the place too and great that it was dog friendly

This pub offers a warm, welcoming space to relax. We enjoyed the local Woodchester wine with a light lunch. The food was tasty and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Will definitely return.

Great food and service. We've been coming here for many, many years and love the cosy atmosphere. Can be noisy when busy. The Sunday roast is excellent.

I was staying in the area for a weekend with my husband and friends. I really liked the look and sound of the Old Fleece and I was not disappointed. We had friendly and efficient service, the staff clearly work well as a team, as...

Great staff, good food, and a positive local atmosphere (people looking out for one another) finished off a good day out.

Couldn't believe how amazing the food is at this place! The atmosphere was buzzing, the staff always there to help. Couldn't ask for more.

We were looking for a pub dinner with friendly atmosphere that was good value close to our hotel. We found that. Lovely friendly warm welcome, a choice of places to sit and a relaxed environment. There was a good choice on the menu. We ordered fish and chips and mussels and both were served quickly and cooked nicely and the restaurant staff were super friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Really average food. The foccacia bread was just a small brown loaf. Nothing Italian about it whatsoever. The main course of chicken was drowning in Pesto, from a jar and everything else seemed to be reheated. Disappointing to say the least. On a plus, the waiting staff were helpful and pleasant

The atmosphere at the Old Fleece was lovely, very welcoming & friendly team. They were serving 4 ales on tap which offered a great selection of local beer - 2 IPAs, 1 bitter, 1 Golden. We all ate the same meal (mussels and chips) which were delicious and fairly priced for the high standard presented. Overall a top pub, staff & food. Recommend

Had a small mediocre Sunday dinner, 3 thin slices of beef, 1 carrot (which was the nicest thing on the plate) 3 hard roast potatoes, celeriac puree & a burnt yorky. Food was tepid & all for £20. Kids meal for £9 was 3 over cooked chicken strips, a handful of frozen fries with salad. Should have stayed home & cooked myself.

The food was fantastic as was the service, lovely place to visit, we had the Camembert, Duck, they were delicious. Will visit again

Visited with my wife and went to the Vineyard for the day. Staff were excellent and the food was decent. Location isn’t great on a busy main road so the information when staying is deceiving. However well worth a visit if you’re in the area. Only reason I wouldn’t go back is the location but everything else was spot on.

Extremely disappointing roast dinner. For £20 I had 2 small dry slices of beef, 3 carrots, 3 potatoes, a tablespoon of over sweet red cabbage all hiding under a cold Yorkshire pudding.

We had the nicest evening here on Friday for a small family get together to celebrate my birthday. Food was excellent, beautifully cooked with a good selection to chose from, including decent vegetarian options. Staff were welcoming, friendly and attentive. As locals, we have been...

We had a lovely dinner here for our anniversary. The staff were really pleasant and attentive. We were served with drinks as soon as we arrived and we didn't have to wait very long at all for our food, which was delicious. Overall our experience...

Excellent food & service even during major renovations! Cooked an individual burger (without onion). Great wine list. Friendly atmosphere.

Good Sunday roast. Only grumble was that they charged for extra gravy. That annoyed me. I appreciate costs are high but I think that's a bit out of the ordinary.

At the time we visited, this pub had a truly gifted chef (Vlad), with the rare ability to know exactly how food should taste, and how to achieve that result. The food was not particularly fancy, but my idea of straightforward perfection. The pub itself...

Oh how things have changed, used to be great food, now not so. Homemade chips are now 2nd rate frozen ones. Awful burger, disgusting pulled beef. I just wanted a decent burger ffs. Food was cold as waiting staff took ages to bring to table...

Dismal. Unfortunately the food was cold and unappetising. Service was slow as it seemed they had too many customers and not enough staff. The temporary “catering van” kitchen filled the air with a greasy aroma. The platitudes offered by the staff after replacing our food...

Repas de qualité. Léa , french speaking , et ses collègues vous accueilleront avec beaucoup de gentillesse et de professionnalisme...

This lovely pub was recommended to us by our Airbnb hosts and it didn't disappoint! Warm welcome by attentive staff. Lovely atmosphere. We chose the chicken supreme and cajun chicken salad which were delicious, followed by a mini sticky toffee pudding - yum! Would definitely...

Prima gegeten (pulled pork burger, was iets aan vette kant, maar wel lekker), centrale gedeelte is wel wat gezelliger dan...

Went for my ushers lunch before my wedding nearby. Absolutely fantastic food, great service, can't thank Tobias and Ollie and team enough. Best pub in the area.

Nice "country" pub on the outskirts of Stroud. Despite some renovation work going on, the place was clean and inviting, very well presented. The staff were very welcoming, attentive and friendly. Food was good too.

First time back here since COVID and it was as good as ever. A long leisurely lunch with old friends was great. The sea trout melted in the mouth, the battered haddock was excellent and the sticky toffee pudding finished it all off perfectly. Looking...

Unsatisfied. I came here on Sunday for lunch, my husband has reserved us both a table. The pub itself was too noisy, the staff were rude and the food itself was not up to standard, the plate was piping hot yet the food was cold....

Went for dinner on a Sunday night while staying in the area. Great food, friendly and helpful staff, warm and relaxed atmosphere - would highly recommend!

Great service and food in a beautiful pub. Had amazing pork belly bites and a Sunday roast which was fab.

I love this place. It's my go to for food when friends drop into see me and I want to show off stroud. A 20 minute direct walk (past Damien Hirst's storage) or an hour if I'm showing them the views from Selsley Common. I...

Poor, unprofessional management. Loudly laughing and mocking customers behind the bar. Staff made us feel uncomfortable from the moment we walked in. We tried to place this review last month but it got reported and taken down, I guess some people can't take criticism. Place...

Great place to stay and dine. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the menu had a good selection including gluten free options. Excellently eclectic rooms and a good base to stay to explore the area.

I was blown away by the team - so friendly and welcoming. Lunch was perfect - thoughtfully curated menu, lovely quality and so tasty! Can't recommend highly enough. Many thanks and we'll be back very soon.

Very expensive for what it was. Two burgers, two brownies, a chicken salad, two soft drinks and one glass of wine for £90, seems a bit steep. Friendly staff and quick service, but fairly average food for the price.

Great food and service with a smile, timely and friendly. Food was not heavy in carbs and had healthy options

My husband and I, daughter & her husband and our 3 yr old granddaughter had a delicious meal here on Sunday 16th April. We all really enjoyed our food, loved the decor and the staff were so lovely. One of them heard "birthday" mentioned and...

We love coming here. We are always greeted with a warm welcome and so is our Labrador. The staff are very friendly and we always enjoy the food and drink. There is a great atmosphere. Can’t recommend this place highly enough!

Great atmosphere, quick and friendly service, dog friendly and delicious food. Will definitely be visiting again.

Absolutely amazing from the service to the food and the quality of the food! Stunning painting and lovely outside area! Service was very fast and efficient, especially the curly girl working there she was absolutely everywhere! Steaks melted in the mouth the flavours and the...

This place escaped a lower rating because the steaks we ordered were very good. Sadly other aspects were poor. I stood for some time at the bar before someone acknowledged me and pointed out my table despite it being pretty empty at the time. The...

Excellent food let down by lackadaisical service. Went up to bar on arrival and our table was pointed out. I wasn't really given the opportunity to order a drink but was informed that as it was tabke service someone would take our order. The bar...

This is our go to local and never disappoints. The menu is short but gives enough range including vegan options. Service was good. Restaurant can be a bit noisy. I enjoyed the belly pork which was really well presented. Very satisfied companions who spoke well...

I went with a friend to 'The Old Fleece' on 1st March to celebrate his birthday. We had lunch together in the bar area. The food and service were both excellent and the general atmosphere in the bar was pleasant too - comfortable and calm...

We were to celebrate Mothering Sunday. It was very busy but nothing felt rushed. The food and service was excellent.

This a great place to go on a Sunday for a roast! The food is always great, and the team is friendly and helpful. This has been our go-to place and will continue to be :) Also its veg friendly

Great Sunday lunch, hot and lots of it. Staff friendly and atmosphere busy. Everyone v nice to our labrador 😊

Not that good price for chicken and a spoon full of veg £20.50. Sorry to say was expecting better as always had a good name,

We enjoyed a really delicious lunch at the Old Fleece last Saturday. Food was excellent (best plant-based burgers I have ever tasted and nicely-cooked fresh haddock and chips in light batter). The service was super friendly and a great ambience. Still the best pub in...

We were welcomed warmly (we live locally and and here quite a lot) and seated near a lovely log fire, as requested. The food was delicious - two of us chose baguette sandwiches which came with fries and salad and were very good. The other...

We often visit the Old Fleece for a special occasion meal with the family. We only live a mile away so we can even take our dog who is always welcome and often gets a biscuit or two! We all had the roast dinner which...

Great food...kids meals freshly made and well worth it, even if a bit pricier than most kids menus. Staff welcoming and made it a great lunchtime family pub with dogs allowed too, so we made a day out of it with walks nearby. We will...

We ate here on Saturday night during a weekend stat at The Bear at Rodborough. Cosy nice looking pub with friendly staff and decent food - we will return.

Myself and my wife have just got back from a lovely meal, fantastic food, amazing young staff and very reasonable prices

Food always consistently good, staff friendly and helpful, good selection of beer, wine and spirits, well chosen / kept. Good selection of food, generous Sunday roasts. Recommended!

The staff were helpful and obliging in changing time I had booked and kept my table until we arrived. the food, a Sunday Roast of Beef was very good, They welcome dogs never seen so many well behaved dogs !

Absolutely beautiful pub but a shame they can’t seem to organise their tables. Ordered drinks and sat enjoying at our table that we’d ensured was unreserved before sitting. 20 minutes in we got told we had to move and could always sit outside (in February?)...

We booked for a cold February day and had a lovely lunch of burger and sticky toffee pudding. Staff were very friendly and it's a nice setting - will be even better when the renovation work is complete.

We were seated initially at a really awful table, basically at the bar, it looked like it had been plonked there as an afterthought. People buying drinks were banging into us and we were right next to a pile of dirty glasses. Possibly the least...

Great place to stop over , The Appartment above the old Fleece was such a surprise! Quirky , Huge with a bit of modern chucked in and everything needed for a relaxing time away! Absolutely Fabulous Food in the Fleece and Highy recommended so book...

The Old Fleece is always a good bet. I wanted a pub with more than one veggie option. Average potion size. Good beer.

Me & my family had a great meal at the fleece. The food & service were fantastic . Will definitely return.

Popped in for dinner. Nice food the couple of times we’ve eaten here. The girl who served us was nice. It’s a cosy place too. But was a bit shocked by all the young men with coats on going through the kitchen. Thought it a...

Phoned a couple of days before to book table for Sunday lunch. Were assured a full menu would be available. Sat at table. Waited 20 minutes. Ordered a large G&T and an espresso martini. Waited another 15 minutes to be told no espresso martini, of...

Sadly we have had the one of the worse lunches I think I’ve ever eaten today. After a difficult few months, my Mother and I thought it would be a nice treat to eat out at Christmas this year. On arrival the staff were great,...

Accomadation here as with sister place The Old Lodge is fantastic. Ate here in June when was back in Uk --- meal was great...on strength of that entertained three people for dinner --- so dissappointing...bland was the over riding taste. Fish dish featuring chorizo---maybe pan...

The food and service from waitresses was very good itself would be 4 or 5 star rating. We hadnt booked and and after checking with a staff member took us to an available table, a few seconds later a male supervisor came over to me...

Lovely cosy atmosphere, my food was delcious and nice to have something different to usual pub fare. Service friendly. A bit expensive,

We visited for a family celebration. Great options for kids and all the food was amazing. Only request is more Woodchester wine and better fizz by the glass. Please.

When we order the gfa beef roast dinner and the roast arrived without the Yorkshire pudding. We questioned where was the gluten free alternative (GFA) and they said the gluten free alternative was to not have the Yorkshire pudding. Is Nothing really worth advertising...as a...
