Before we were in Stratford I looked up a couple of pubs/eateries and booked them prior to going. I had actually looked up the Salmon tail and the Tripadviser reviews looked promising so having a stroll round Stratford one evening we found ourselves outside the S.T. and decided to call in for a drink!!! As we walked through the car park to the rear of the pub this fear of foreboding and trepidation swept over me and the hairs on the back of my neck stood up, and the closer I got the worse it got but we went inside anyway hoping to be totally wrong and end up being pleasantly surprised. I think we were in there for at least forty seconds before we did an about turn . I re -checked the Tripadviser reviews on returning home to find those reviews are at least a year old. All I will say is if your visiting Stratford upon Avon for the first time and you are thinking of paying a visit to the Salmon tail. {like we did}........ THEN DON'T!

This is our local pub, recently took over by new management. As it had lost its way by previous management it is not used as much as it should be. The staff at the Salmon Tail are walm, welcoming and extremely polite. The pub itself is very cosy,and finished to a high standard. We had Sunday roast and pudding and it was beautiful, absolutely no faults. The service time was excellent! Would highy recommend as we had a very enjoyable meal! Will certainly be going again!

This is the second time that I have been to the Salmon Tail for the Thai food. The first time we eat in and the second time a takeout. The food is excellent... in taste and in quantity, and is extremely good value for money The service is very friendly.. that you Emmanuelle. We will be back on our next visit to Stratford. I highly recommend.

This is our local pub that has recently been taken over by new management. Unfortunately it had lost it's way a bit by previous management and is not used as much as it should be/ used to be, some years ago. I'm hoping this will all change now, because it's food is fantastic and it's a nice, spacious space to eat or just go for a drink in. We have had several Thai takeaways from here which have been freshly cooked and delicious, so we decided to go for Sunday lunch, as we want to support our local pub. Sunday lunch is a traditional British affair, with a choice of 3 meats with all the accompaniments and a vegetarian option (which was splendid!). It was perfectly cooked, with generous portions, all very reasonably priced. We will definitely be making frequent returns for more!

Me quedo cerca de Salmon Tail cuando estoy en Stratford por trabajo. He visitado para tomar una copa antes y tuve una comida tailandesa anoche. Precios muy competitivos también. Tanto la comida como la cerveza tradicional eran excelentes. Según la última revisión, espero que obtenga apoyo local.

The Salmon Tail Stratford-upon-Avon Review of People NOT restaurant 727297202 We visited the Salmon Tail on 13th November 2019. Unfortunately the restaurant was not yet open, being refurbished. However the management were extremely helpful. We stopped for a drink which was excellent, and the surroundings were very clean, attractive and the toilets were also spotless. We had tried to check in to a local B&B and found we were 2 hours early. The lady in the Salmon Tail had no hesitation in offering to look after our bags for us while we went into Stratford. Although we were unable to try the restaurant, I am confidant that the new owners will get it up and running soon, and certainly seem made of the right stuff to make a success of their new venture. Good luck to them.

We visited The Salmon Tail for a meal in June. The pub has new management in place, so it is to soon to be too critical. The staff were welcoming & friendly, & the pub has plenty of seating , both indoor & outdoors. The beer selection was disappointing, as there was no creamflow bitter & the real ales were all light ales. There is a good selection of other drinks, from lagers, spirits to soft drinks. The menu has a good selection, but we found the food average, & expensive for what we ordered. The pub has great potential, & we will visit again when we are in Stratford next.

I really love this place, nice surroundings, good bar staff. Pop in occasionally for a quick pint with my dad. But.. Such a shame the Ale is poorly kept. Often cloudy, often off. They should focus on local beer, and make sure its kept well. 3 beers on offer last time i went in. Doombar, Mad goose and Hooky. You are better off keeping just one beer really well not 3 poorly. Purity Mad Goose is by far the best beer and hardly ever on...shame If the beer was better I would go there all the time but find I'm drawn back in to town to find a decent drink.

Came here on a quiet Sunday afternoon, ordered a few drinks and took about 10 minutes to get to us, we then ordered food and it took half an hour to then get to us. One of the bar man was new and he was nice and did a good job with what he had. The other bar man wasn't that good, we ordered the chicken goujons and it says on the menu it comes with bbq sauce, 'COMES WITH' , he asked us if we wanted any other sauces so we asked for ketchup and still no bbq sauce so we then asked for it and he said ' well I did just ask if you wanted any sauces'. After half an hour of waiting we couldn't believe the cheek of it. Won't be coming again.

We came here as a family days before Xmas. For many years the Salmon was always my local but I recently lost touch wit it. We sat in the front bar, great log effect gas fire burning away gave the pub a great warm atmosphere. The beers is always quality and the staff were spot on It’s just a great pub.

We arrived at the Salmon Tail looking forward to some good home cooking, It took the barman 20 minutes to find the menu, only then did we realize he was the only one on duty, how was he going to cook our meal and serve drinks at two bars, he was very polite and said it was no problem, we declined,

We visited this place on a Saturday evening and it was surprisingly quiet, a blessed relief from the hustle and bustle of the centre of town. We had visited the pub’s website to look at the menu but were surprised to be given a completely different menu. We soon found out that the place is under new management so it’s in a transitional phase. The choice was more limited than we expected: there were no burgers or steaks. We had two sharing starters (dirty fries and mozzarella sticks) and both chose 10oz gammon as a main course. Unusually all the food arrived at once, and this seemed to be a misunderstanding on behalf of the Eastern European barman. Despite this, the food was well presented and of good quality. The gammon was tender, moist and not overly salty. It was accompanied by homemade slaw, triple cooked chunky chips, garden peas and a side salad. No egg or pineapple was included with the gammon: why? Anyway, we polished off the lot, helped by a pint of Mad Goose ale, so it was a good meal and I’d recommend giving The Salmon Tail a try!

Great pub with a very pleasant atmosphere, the barmaid (not sure if that’s the correct term these days) was lovely, chatty, knowledgeable and prompt. Always good to see locals and tourists using a place it shows a good all round appeal. The food was well presented and tasted excellent. The Mad Goose pale ale was outstanding, try it! All in all, after a bad experience at another establishment the night before, this place restored my faith in good old British pub food and drink.

Don't judge this place from the outside (although the appearance is by no means bad) just step inside and enjoy! This is a good, honest place serving excellent ales, a good selection of wine, and traditional pub food but with a twist at sensible prices and with quality ingredients. It’s off the tourist trail just 5 to 10 minutes walk outside the town centre on the Evesham Road but well worth it. The staff are very welcoming and the place is smart, comfortable and spotless. We were in Stratford-Upon-Avon for a few days and after trying some disappointing rip-off places in the town centre we were very happy to have found the Salmon Tail.

Went into the Salmon Tail for the first time many years and was pleasantly surprised. Very different to the place I remember, a great atmosphere with comfortable seating and a surprisingly good menu. Food very sensibly priced and served with some nice touches. If you've been to this place in the past and have a less than positive opinion, give it another try, I think you'll be surprised too.

The Salmon Tail, is a lovely pub in stratford, friendly staff, ( WHO KNOWS WHAT Y~OU LIKE TO DRINK WITHOUT ASKING ) and lovely food, i am a coeliac and they always go out of there way to cater for me, their nacho's are the best in town. I'm a bit of a red wine drinker and sometime find some pubs stock basics, no not the salmon tail my favourite malbec is served there and my husband loves the moretti, plus they put on great entertainment nights. but the biggest plus is i can take my gorgeous cockapoo dog in and we are all made welcome, your missing a treat if you don't go hear.

We called in at The Salmon Tail one evening last week whilst on a short break in Stratford. We were staying at a nearby B&B and saw this pub. It is a bit of a hidden gem. From the outside it looks quite ordinary but I have to say that the food and drink here is pretty good considering it is essentially a pub and not a specialist restaurant. I enjoyed the gourmet burger whilst my better half enjoyed her steak.The pub is probably a ten minute walk from outside Stratford town centre on Evesham Road. If you are staying over that side of town then I would recommend a visit to The Salmon Tail. It is not too expensive and the service was good too.

We sent our preorder over to Steve and he sorted it all for us. From start to finish the service and hospitality provided by the Salmon Tail was outstanding.We was all very impressed with the quality and quantity of food for the price.

We chose this pub for our evening meal because it was recommended by our hotel and it was conveniently situated on our walk into town. The service was great by the friendly staff, food was quickly served and was most enjoyable. We both had burgers, I had lamb and feta with big chunky chips, my husband the beef with pulled pork on top with fries. Both meals were delicious and not overpriced. Good atmosphere with plenty of customers eating, drinking and pub activities going on and music kept to a decent level. Good location not far from town with a 10 minute walk to the centre or to the river. Small car park at the back. Recommended for a good pub meal.

Holy cow, we came across The Salmon tail by accident and it was an amazing meal with superb food, I'm so grateful we came across it. Give the mainstream places in Stratford-upon-Avon a miss...this is the bomb.We were super hungry and thirsty and the bar/waitress offered to take our drink and food order, and can I just say her amazing service left us blown away...attentive, super friendly and respectful. She clearly loves her job and we love that she loves it. Even our two adult children loved watching her work the floor. Awesome. But the food, omg it was fabulous. Hubby and one daughter ordered the roast beef meals (beef cooked to liking), my other daughter ordered the chicken chorizo melt and I had the fish cakes. Every single element was on point. The beef was cooked perfectly, my fish cakes clearly had fresh haddock with an incredible tartare sauce and the chicken melt was perfect. Perfect. Best surprise? The roast meals came with this bacon and cabbage combo that was to die for....see photo of empty bowl. I was sooo impressed the chef came out to tell me his secret recipe and I cannot wait to try it when I get back home. Honestly, the Salmon Tail will not disappoint.

My husband, daughter and myself visited the Salmon Tail on Easter Monday evening, and feasted like Kings!! Friendly, courteous and helpful staff, a menu to suit all tastes, very competitively priced, and a relaxed, welcoming ambience made our visit very enjoyable. The food is excellent, beautifully cooked and presented, and nothing is too much trouble - just ask and your wishes will be catered to. I can personally highly recommend the Meatballs to start - so tasty and delicious, and then I had a stunning chicken burger to follow - perfect, tender chicken breast that just melted in the mouth! My husband had the garlic mushrooms and then Gammon and egg to follow, and my daughter had Nachos, followed by steak. All served with chips, peas and salad with the burger, the food looked great, and tasted wonderful. Word of Warning - the portions are VERY generous, and none of us managed to finish everything, so wear roomy clothing! We washed this lovely meal down with a light and refreshing bottle of Prosecco and left feeling extremely satisfied and VERY full! The menu is changing, and I for one can't wait to sample the delights on it! We will definitely visit again.

Probably not the best time to visit - as far as I could see we were the only customers. Having said that the meals were really good and I would rate the chips as outstanding - amongst the best I have ever had.All food is cooked fresh so we had a 20 minute wait for the meal but hey-ho it gave me plenty of time to savour a pint of Hooky which was in tip-top condition.With a total bill of £16 for two mains, a pint of beer and a soft drink it was outstanding value.One strange thing - the owner would not take all the tip I offered. This has never happened to me before.

Stratford has a lot of pubs, and a lot of them have a similar vibe and feel - The Salmon Tail is a wonderful little gem hidden just out of the main town centre, and because it is away from the rest of the crowd, it has its own unique personality and vibe.Clean, tidy, comfy and friendlier than a chain pub on a high street - everything is done with a bit of extra class and a smile.A brill afternoon with friends enjoying a quiet drink, with top notch service and a really friendly staff. Definitely going back - maybe for one of the music nights which have really great word of mouth.

We dropped in to this pub for a drink with a large group before going to the nearby racecourse for an evening meeting. The solo barman struggled to cope with the sudden influx, but managed in the end.There was a rather limited selection of beers on offer, so not a place that I'd have chosen for myself, but a pleasant enough pub overall.

Excellent promotion of different types of gin. Visitors were treated to 3 full size samples from the 5/6 available. A new initiative from this recently refurbished pub. Looking forward to The Cocktails Night on Aug 26th, and the Whisky & Rum Night on Sept 29th.

The staff did everything they could for a big group of sometimes too drunk people and kept everyone safe and happy.

I've been playing live music for the salmon tail for many years. They are fantastic! Friendly, professional staff. The venue is spacious, clean & well designed. A must visit when in and around Stratford-Upon-Avon. Great food selection & a diverse selection of drinks - highly recommended.

Advised to book as dinning mid week, thou when we arrived it was pretty quite. Thou as the evening progressed the busyness didn't improve thou we couldn't fault the guys who serviced us with their recommendations & chat. There was disappointment the size of the Brie starter as what payed wasn't worth it & size compared the others eating with us. We all throughly enjoyed our meals & puds. Apart from the starter size I'd say to advise on getting a proper billing systems. But Thank you guys got a lovely evening. We hope to visit again soon.

The Salmon Tail is 10 to 15 minutes walk from the Town Centre but well worth the journey. My Wife and I enjoyed lunch there today Tuesday 31st May. The service was excellent the barman /server was attentive but not overpowering. We were able to easily open a tab and pay one bill when we had finished, much more convenient. The main course and pudding were lovely particularly the chips crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. We will definitely be returning. The price was very reasonable, cheap by Stratford-upon-Avon standards.

Very low prices on food. You'll find here the typical local pub out of the way of tourists. A Stratford local feeling

Visited today for lunch and we were very impressed. The pub has been recently refurbished and its lovely! There is a garden with plenty of tables but it was a little chilly today so we ate inside. The food was very good - we had nachos and then the fish cakes that were recommended to us. They were delicious! The service is excellent - nothing was too much trouble and the barman made sure we had everything we needed. It was certainly value for money too. Would highly recommend as it's just a stones throw from Stratford, has a carpark and is much friendlier than the busy tourist pubs in the centre of Stratford. Thank you Anthony - we had a lovely time!

Visited the Salmon Tail for Saturday lunch with friends, which proved to be an excellent choice. We all had the fishcakes which were delicious, beautifully presented and piping hot. Great service by Anthony who looked after us very well - attentive, but not overbearing. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. Although not extensive, the menu offers a good choice of home cooked food at very reasonable prices. The recently refurbished outside seating area is lovely, but just a little too chilly the day we visited. We will definitely be back and have no hesitation in recommending The Salmon Tail.

We recently enjoyed a great meal and a few pints at the Salmon Tail after a long day of travel. The food was honest and good quality. I had the fishcakes special, as recommended by the manager, which were particularly tasty. Others in the group had the lasagne, soup of the day, gourmet hotdog and crumbed brie. All the dishes, with the exception of the soup, were great. Don't get me wrong the soup wasn't bad, it just seemed to be half way between a chunky vegetable broth and a creamy vegetable soup.Best of all were the staff - they were amazing. The waitress and the manager took the time to chat with us and provided some of the best service I've seen in a pub. All in all - a great way to finish off a busy day.

We had a great meal with a large group and many restaurants could learn from this place. Food spot on and great portions. Service speedy and with a laugh. It was that good we here again for another meal. Stratford is a hard place to find value for money and quality in same place. We found this hidden gem its worth a visit

We visited The Salmon Tail on Sunday and chose the Roast which we were told this week was Roast Beef. Freshly cooked and delicious. Fresh vegetables, tasty roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings. One of the best roasts I've had in a very long time. Great value and we will be definitely be returning. The desserts sounded amazing but we really were too full to be tempted.
