The Stag at offchurch in Warwick

Very pleasant surroundings and atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Lovely pub/restaurant with a great outdoor area. Will definitely be coming back when the suns out🤩

Glad to see this pub open again. Staff very helpful friendly and professional. Lunch time menu small but ok beer well kept. Good size car park and very clean toilets and a large garden dining drinking area. All in all very good.

I put a blog on FB everything was wonderful...lamb cooked to perfection. Staff awesome.

I come here with my family occasionally and once had Christmas Dinner. Superb location for a lunch or a roast. Great atmosphere for inside and outside dining. There is plenty of friendly staff and the food is all at good prices. I would strongly recommend. Thank you!

Great location friendly staff good food the garden is perfect in the sun dog friendly

Recently under new management & so pleased to see lots of GF options ! Speaking to head chef , Josh L, who tells me everything cooked in their fyers are now GF so no risk of cross contamination ! Just returned from a perfect Sunday Lunch , sun is shining , birds are singing & spent several blissful hours in the pub garden which is just about to blossom .

Decided to have Lunch out in the countryside, decided on the Stag, have been here before and as usual service/food/drinks were very good, worth a visit, emily our waitress was very good.

Have been a regular at The Stag for many year's and always love the food here

Lovely place especially beer garden in the summer.

Management is not welcoming and awfully rude! I had helped these three women into the pub and had let them know there is a disability route into the pub due to one woman struggling with the steps into the pub. Due to working there previously i had the knowledge of the pubs entrances and exits. They had accidentally mistaken me that i worked there but i had made it clear i didn’t work there and was wearing my own work uniform which is completely different to the stags uniform. I had then got told to move where i was originally sat due to the three ladies thinking i worked there, i can understand the misunderstanding of staff however this was said in such a rude spiteful manner. I had also came in another time before work and had overheard this lady with dark/highlighted hair to all the staff saying to completely ignore me and that they should not speak to me. She had tried to discreetly say this up in the conservatory however i had heard the whole conversation with being down at the bar. This is completely disgusting and disrespectful towards customers. Used to be such a lovely welcoming pub with all staff being chatty and welcoming to all customers. This is clearly not the case anymore. Massively disappointing.

I went in for dinner on Sunday and was very disappointed to see how the staff had changed since i last went there , there was a older staff member not sure what role they were as i did not recognize them but they weren't helpful to the younger staff at all. Very dissapointed.

Came in for a sunday lunch with family, was very disappointed. Used to be such a reliable place for a sunday lunch alongside lovely owners and staff. All staff looked joyful and managers were always lovely and chatty however that is now not the case unfortunately. Portion sizes have gotten smaller including the standard of the food. Such a shame that the stags standards has gone down hill since reopening. 1 waitress was lovely, we were sat in the conservatory, she catered to our every need! However we had heard a woman shouting at staff which is an awful look on the pub and were concerned for other staff. Really hope they take feedback seriously and turn this place back to how it was.

The portion of food is really small for its price and the taste is bland as well. We ordered 2 main dishes, sea bass and chicken,and a crab cake starter with a pot of tea and a glass of red wine It costs nearly £60 not fulfilling or satisfying with the taste.

Overpriced pub food, cooked without any degree of imagination. Please, if someone is paying for food they deserve better than a basic burger and frozen chips and little more. There is a lot of choice in and around Leamington, and I don't want to eat something that I could have cooked with a lot more care at home: That's a waste of money and an utterly pointless use of my time! Pub classics don't have to be this dull.

We hadn't realised that The Stag had been taken over when we booked for Sunday lunch. Whilst the pub is still nice and the staff are friendly, the food was really disappointing, especially compared to how it was previously. We didn't think the value for money was great and honestly, the food just didn't taste that great. It's such a shame as this used to be our favourite place locally for Sunday lunch.

I'm genuinely gutted about The Stag since the change in management. Their roast dinners used to be excellent - a real highlight that I regularly recommended to friends and family. My recent visit was thoroughly disappointing. For £18, I received a noticeably smaller portion than before, and the quality simply wasn't there. The food lacked the care and attention to detail that made it special previously. What used to be a reliable spot for a delicious Sunday lunch just isn't good value for money anymore. I truly hope the new owners take customer feedback seriously and make the necessary changes to restore The Stag to its former glory. Such a shame to see a local favorite decline like this.

We couldn't pre book due to no phone signal so just turned up on new years day and ask for a table for two. They found a table and we were sat down within 15 mins even though they were busy. The service was very good and quick so much so we were eating our meal about 45 mins after arriving. The food was very good and tasty. Couldn't fault anything about this place and we will book and return with family in near future. THIS HAS NOW CLOSED. So all reviews prior to 12/01/25 would be redundant 🤔

The Stag at Offchurch offers a fantastic dining experience with good service, reasonable prices, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. The roast beef is absolutely delicious and highly recommended!

Very good steak and food in general. Stopped for a quiet lunch on NYE.

Came for a post Christmas meal today with family we didn’t see on the big day. Food was excellent and very attentive service, nice atmosphere and the pud was looking lovely and festive. Chocolate marquise with salted caramel ice cream and chocolate soil was a standout pud for me. I had slow cooked lamb for main which was also delicious. We will definitely be back. Thank you.

Delicious roast beef dinner, warm and cosy pub after a country walk. Puppy was welcome in the bar. Service was outstanding.

The waiting staff were lovely. They couldn't do more for you. The food was very very poor. Never had a steak taste so bad. Management... Start looking at the amount of food returned on the plates. Well over half of every steak we ordered last night got returned to you. Take that as a British sign that the food was awful.

We celebrated our son’s 30th birthday last night with a family meal - it was absolutely fantastic. The food was 1st class - hats off to the chef, and the restaurant staff (Richard and Mia) could not have done more to ensure our evening was perfect. Thank you

We visited the Stag at Offchurch for my husband’s birthday. We were greeted by a festive cosy pub with excellent and friendly staff. Some of our party were gluten free and the staff bent over backwards to make sure we were well catered for. The food was delicious and portions were a good size. All in all a wonderful way to spend and afternoon. Thank you to the team there for making our visit so memorable, we will be back!

We both ordered red bream from the specials board and were served a small overcooked fish with soggy skin on a colossal bed of half squashed grey-green marrowfat peas with a small bowl of flaccid skin-on potato in the shape of fries. No cruet and nothing seasoned. As it was put down we just felt disappointment. Like receiving a school dinner. We've never complained about food before and should have, but ate it and left. We were asked what we thought but were too shy, apparently this was a new dish, I said that it wasn't what we expected, I should have said, yeah, don't serve this again! I'm only fessing up now because Google keeps asking for a review! I've been a few times before and the food has been great so I hope it was a one-off. Just unfortunate that it coincided with trying to impress my mother and expensive!

Have been coming to this pub as a halfway meet point for a couple of years. Food has always been good and fair priced, it is a warm and welcoming pub and the staff are lovely…. This visit my 94 year old mother decided to fall up a step onto a wooden floor, I cannot praise the staff highly enough for their professionalism and care. The accident book was filled in, they escorted her to the table where they brought within a couple of minutes ice to go on her bruised knees and a cup of black tea with milk and sugar on the side. If you are planning a trip there, you couldn’t in my books go wrong ♥️👌🏻

Lovely pub, staff were exceptionally attentive even though it was a busy Sunday afternoon lunchtime slot. We booked to guarantee a table but were held up as so had to call to advise we would be late for the booking - they were very understanding and accommodating. Dog friendly. We will return for sure.

At a wedding reception held at the Stag. Great food, very generous portions, excellent staff & great ambience. Highly recommend.

The perfect place for my brother and sister-in-law's wedding reception, the atmosphere was perfect, very friendly and approachable staff, the food was excellent.

Absolutely Superb! The team at the Stag hosted our wedding reception and provided the absolute best service and food we could have hoped for. We had 24 guests and we were all seated in the conservatory area. The staff were amazing but the food stole the show. Almost every single guest has approached me to tell me how impressed they were. We had 3 courses and all the food was served to everyone together and it was all hot and fresh. The pub had loads of staff on to help accommodate our party and they were all amazing. One of our guests even bought them all a drink at the end of the night to thank them! Beware the baked Camembert starter, it’s superb but big enough for 2 to share. The steak was easily one of the best I have ever had and all the puddings were or looked delicious and were all generous portions. I think Richard is new to managing the pub and he deserves such high praise. He was brilliant making sure we had everything and everything went to plan and on time. Karen who works in the office was brilliant keeping in touch with me in the weeks up to the event making sure we had everything we needed. The wine was superb, we had about 14 bottles between our party and the primitivo I drank was just perfect. We had a buffet for an extra 20 guests at 8pm in the evening and again it was just superb. We took over the conservatory area for the whole afternoon and evening and the whole event was a solid 10 out of 10. My new. Wife and I want to pass on our heartfelt thanks to the whole team at the stag for making our special day so perfect. Thanks from David and Tina xx

Spent a wonderful afternoon/evening here celebrating the marriage of dear friends. The service, food, and ambiance were superb and matched an already perfect day perfectly!

Recently attended a wedding reception held here, the staff were excellent and the food and service was outstanding in every respect. Beautiful pub with ample space, lots of outdoor space too with a wide variety of food and drink available. Well worth a visit!

Great Sunday lunch in a lovely traditional pub.

We were guests at a wedding meal on Saturday, the menu was comprehensive, the food was excellent, the staff were

Visited as a guest for a family wedding. A lovely classic country pub/resteraunt with spectacular food and hearty portions that exceed their price point. The staff were attentive and friendly, and happy to accommodate requests fast and efficiently. I had a hearty mushrooms on toast, one of the best steaks in recent memory and luxurious well curated cheeseboard. Well worth making the effort to visit, and an absolutely essential visit if you are already in the area and looking for a quality meal.

Friendly staff excellent food will definitely return

We booked but then had to wait 40 minutes for the table and we had to go and ask what was happening . . We finally got seated and waited another 20 minutes . Our glasses were empty and no one even came and asked if we would like them re filled !! When they came to take our order they had no beef left !! By this time we had waited over an hour . Still didn't ask if we would like our drinks re filled . I had stop someone and ask them if we could have some more drinks . When the food came it was lovely but sadly we didn't really have time to enjoy it . We were not charged for the meal just the drinks which definitely was the reasonable thing to do . Would we go back . . Sadly no I was disappointed

Our first visit. It was chosen by others for a get together. I like the pub, proper old school country pub. The bar staff and servers were all spot on. Sadly I was driving so just water for me which was a pain as they had some good looking beers on offer. We had a table in the dining room which was great as a few of the group were having a serious catch up. The pub was just the job for that. We had a lunch, the food was ok, I can’t praise it more than that. I had belly pork - one of my favourite meals - somehow the rind had gone awol. The meal was ok, but not what I expected. My wife has sea bream which was a little over done. I don’t mean to be too picky because the good bits outweighed the not so good. I’d love to try the ales if I go again.

Great Sunday lunch....the lamb was superb...my wife had the beef and my brother the seabream!

Lovely buffet, friendly staff, nice pub

Prompt service in the pleasant surroundings of the dinning area of this lovely old pub. I’d like to visit in the summer to sit in their garden for a drink. As a vegetarian there was only one choice of main for me so I probably wouldn’t return to eat for that reason. It’s a shame that there is still lack of imagination about vegetarian food in most British pubs.

Great staff, great food. Will return

Me and my mother went on fridsy evening, to be greeted with happy smiles and good company fantastic service and drinks, everyone was very professional, catered for our every need, food was pricey but worth it and a great cocktail deal of 2 for 15 and they pour a great pint as well overall good experience

We were a large group and the food came out together and in good time which was great but the food was poor. Three of us had roast beef and it was so stringy and chewy. I was exhausted trying to cut it. Others had steaks which weren't much better and another had a crumble dessert which was rock hard. It's a shame as it's a lovely spot.

Worth a visit here just because Melvyn Hayes (Gloria) was once the Landlord here. It ain’t half hot mum is an old favourite of mine.

A delicious lunch, freshly cooked to order. The best ham and eggs ever. Customer service is second to none. Choice of attractive outdoor seating area or cosy inside seating. It's well worth making a trip here. Bravo.

Perfect Sunday Lunch food was fantastic and the service was really great Thank you 5*

I asked if the chicken was free range. They didn’t know but guessed it wasn’t. So I opted for a vegetarian item. I asked if the peas had mint in them . They said they did. So, I didn’t order that item either. I ended up ordering a sausage sandwich. What arrived was ok bread with far too sharp red onion marmalade on it and three small cheap flavourless sausages. The whole thing was far too dry. Staff really didn’t care. The rest of my group said the food was “fine”.

Went here for a Sunday dinner (6pm) with my family - ordered the roast. We were told by the waiter & the menu that vegetables were being provided When our meals came, we were served with soggy overcooked cabbage and no other vegetables.

Saturday night dinner with a couple of friends and from the get go service was slow & staff uninformed. Firstly couldn’t see our reservation - until we looked at the bookings & found it. Took 20 mins until we could get anyone’s attention after sitting down to order drinks - then came back to say no house rose (by this time the couple who had walked in behind us were finishing their starters). Then given bread which looked like the bake at home stuff from Tesco, served in an old baking tray. To be fair though, the olives we were given were good. Food came and was very average and green beans were very undercooked. Oh & they had no vinegar! How does a restaurant run out of a basic like vinegar! We all had a scoop of ice cream for dessert, but the quality was rather poor - the cherry could’ve been anything and the chocolate was rather anemic. Never mind we were having a good chat, so we ordered post dinner drinks - decaf normal coffee, peppermint tea & small glass of wine and were promised some biscuits to go alongside - yep you guessed it - coffee arrived as expresso, no mint tea of any kind available & the wine was delivered as a large glass - at £13.50! Manager looked rather embarrassed, but only took off the tea (went for decaf ordinary tea in end) and the coffee. All in all a really poor experience and will not be back. Really painful paying the bill of hard earned cash where the management clearly do not care about the customer experience. Save your cash, book elsewhere!

We walked from Leamington across the fields and wanted a nice pub meal. Initial impressions were good, friendly and good drinks service. We were told olives and bread were coming. There were three of us and we were given a tiny pot of 8 olives at most, next a metal tray with three tiny pieces of bagette which looked like it came from Tesco. My main was pork belly which was a small piece of pork drowning in a sea of liquid, overall it was tastless and lacked basic seasoning. Nothing like the photo on the website. My son's chicken was ok but overdone and just sat on a large paralell array of green beans which did not taste of much, chips were ok. My wife was ok with her fish and gave 6/10. Despite asking twice for strawberry my son was given chocolate ice cream. Overall an underwhelming experience. Maybe this is what happens late on a Tuesday but for the price this experience was well below expectations. People will say why not say something there and then, my family said not to as it can get even worse.

We had lunch there today and the service was brilliant from start to finish. The Sea Bass fillets were exceptional 10 / 10. The beer and wine was also top class. Will be going there again very soon 👍

The Stag used to be one of the best country pubs around, sadly no longer. The service is awful, our party of 5 were forgotten about following our starter, we had to remind staff twice that we were still waiting, happily the manager gave us a round of drinks to apologise. I was not keen on the lamb, looking and tasted like it came out of a tin, and the veg was basic at best. The saving grace is the beer garden, would be great as long as you don’t expect good food and service, it saddens me to see how an old favourite has declined.

My mum and I enjoyed fish finger sandwiches and sausage sandwiches with a glass of wine for lunch. Really lovely, with bread that wasn’t sourdough thankfully! The staff were extremely polite and attentive. A very nice place for a casual lunch. It’s our second time here and I would definitely recommend it.

A lovely Sunday roast in a local pub. Nice decor inside and a big garden out the back. Staff were cheerful and regularly checked in to see if we needed anything. We were 8 people (4A/4Ch) and we all enjoyed our meals.

Real village gastro pub however the service is lacking as it is left for a young team to run lacking in hospitality experience. It is essentially bring the food out, flag for service (was very quiet too) and very different to a competitor such as The Saxon Mill. The food quality needs a front of house to match. Service experience felt on more than one visit.

Attended a private event here. Food was great, service very friendly and overall a lovely restaurant/pub.

Nice country pub In a quiet location nice beer garden .Near to the Offchurch greenaway.

Fell over this place on our road run, enjoyed the quick visit but returned on Saturday hoping to get a table without booking. Staff were great accommodating us including our dog. Had a great meal well worth the price

Great food and service in a very nice neighbourhood

Couldn't fault the service in the food was gorgeous

Lovely village pub, with great beer and good food. Service was polite and prompt. Pan fried sea bream was very tasty, but the best was to come. Lovely apple and raspberry crumble with a silky smooth custard

Took a trip to here on a late Saturday afternoon on a Bank Holiday weekend, easily booked a table inside or outside within an hour before attending, staff were attentive and quick with service. Food was very quick to arrive and to incredibly high quality, the steak was cooked and seasoned perfectly and all food was warm! The dessert was much bigger than expected, and very nice! A quiet little spot that I just found by random, can't wait to return soon!!

Dropped in for a drink after a long walk. Lovely pub with a great beer garden. Food looked good, but we didn't eat. Staff friendly. Only gripe was my step daughter charged for a pint in her round when it was only a half. Our fault for not checking immediately, that's what happens when you've been on the ciders 😅. Would recommend though. (Dog friendly)

Food is nice though already had the whole menu and nothing new is added. Service lacks unfortunately

It was a beautiful place and food was delicious.

Hadn't been to this pub since I lived nearby as a teenager. Found it much changed and updated but not in a bad way! Only popped in for an afternoon drink but liked the atmosphere and my gin and tonic was lovely.

This is trying to be something it's not....expensive for what it is....service is lacked, and no atmosphere....I would not go back.

We were looking for some food while driving in area and stopped by. Place was very cosy with nice atmoshpere, service brilliean but food was exceptional. Litfle gem seemingly in the middle of nowhere.

Great lunch, the confit of duck and lamb dishes were both excellent as was the service/ambience.

Very nice, staff polite and professional

A great meal on a Friday night. Wonderful food, lovely menu. The staff were attentive, fun and couldn't have looked after us better. Top marks!

I have had the best ever starter and cheese board to follow. Outstanding flavours. My eyes have been opened to quality over mass. Martin. 71years old.

One of our favourite restaurants, especially for occasions

5 star review a year ago unfortunately now replaced with a 2 star review after visiting this year. Not sure what's gone wrong there (new management maybe?) but it's like going to a completely different place. 4 people in our group who had the steak said the cut of meat sub standard and tasteless. Previously multiple steak options which perhaps should have raised the alarm bells. One steak not cooked as ordered. Sent back and then brought back a few minutes later and asked if we would eat it anyway and take off the bill. No offer to replace it. 2 sausages and a blob of mash for £16. Think carefully if you have been here before it's changed significantly. Complaint raised with the waitress who had difficulty disagreeing with our feedback.

Very enjoyable saturday lunch. Very relaxed atmosphere in the restaurant. Attentive service and great food

Thank you for the great food, service and great atmosphere today. We will definitely come back. Agatha I Peter

The food was of such a high standard, I cannot fault anything. The meat, vegetables and everything else were cooked perfectly. The service was great too. Many thanks for a lovely experience.

Absolutely beautiful meal and experience. Richard was our host and he was onethe most accommodating waiters we’ve ever had. He recommended port with te cheese dessert and also asked if we wanted wine to go with the steak. We didn’t want for anything and just had a very beautiful meal and time here.

Was a family gathering of 16. Everyone seemed to be happy with their meals. Staff where very attentive. I would certainly recommend it, if in the area.

Great pub, great food and great service. Lovely country pub with loads of character.

Amazing birthday dinner for my Grandma - staff lovely and every dish was perfect.

Visited for a lunchtime bite. Food was good as was the service. Nice atmosphere ie fire and Xmas decorations. Altho the pub was busy, most attendees were opting for the restaurant as opposed to the small bar area. Will visit again

Delicious Sunday roast, lovely cosy atmosphere and wonderful friendly staff.

Fabulous Family Christmas Lunch. Maddy was fantastic with organising the event, on the day the food was good and the service from all the team was top notch! We will be back. Well done and thank you 👏🏻

It's always a lovely vibe here, this time I went with a friend for a belated birthday meal, ordered off the festive menu, 3 courses and a pint of the local ale, the food was delicious and immaculately presented, and the beer was good too, definitely the place to bring a date or partner for a bit of posh nosh at reasonable prices

We booked a table on Sunday 19th November at 6.30 pm for a party of 7 and ordered our mains in prior to arrival at the request of the pub . We were lead to our table and ordered alchoholic drinks and water for the table to go with our mains. one bottle of sparkling and a jug of tap water . We had to ask twice for the water as it was forgotten . The dining area wasn't busy. Only two other tables occupied a family table was just finishing up when we arrived and table with a couple on . Several members of our party ordered starters which all arrived fine . Bearing in mind the mains were ordered in advance before we arrived. They didn't arrive together. In fact there was a 10-12 minute delay between the first main meal being served and the final one . I ordered all the trimmings expecting everything it mentioned on the nenu which included Yorkshire pudding and cauliflower cheese .I received neither Just a few undercooked potatoes. Carrots . Suede and a bit of cabbage with a smidge of gravy when I asked the waitress she mentioned something about those items not being vegan . I told her that I wasn't vegan and had not been asked by the pub whether or not I wanted items removed . If was just assumed . She then brought me out a Yorkshire pudding but no cauliflower cheese . I ordered dessert. Which was a winter crumble . It was served with the crumble burnt and the pub had clearly tried to scrape the top off before serving as there was very little crumble on top . Just a burnt light crust . The fruit underneath also tasted burnt . I informed our server that the desert was inedible she offered me another crumble which I refused as the inedible crumble had put me off eating desert . When the bill arrived I was charged for the crumble. Four of us have had upset tummies since dining that evening including myself. Were been several times before to this pub and have eaten our dinner there Christmas day and have never had an issue before. I'm really hoping last night was just a one off and not a sign that the pub has gone down hill .

A nice range of lunch options should suit most budgets, but you may want extra vegetables as not many came with the main courses. The duck with lentils was very salty.

Fabulous food and service within lovely surroundings! 👏👏👏👏

I love this pub. It’s one of my favourites. Dog friendly and up until now people who seem to visit this seem friendly and of good character. Not much seating inside for drinking (most of its restaurant). Outside there is plenty of space and seats. A cool gin bar open in the corner (not always open) Ordering drinks can be slow sometimes as it always seems busy with lots of food being served. Just wish there was a little bit more “hustle” to make sure people are not waiting.

rather expensive and limited vegan options and the roasts didn't come with yorkies but sitting outside was very pleasant and the staff were friendly

This pub is very smart and modern. Nice area outside to sit and watch the kids play. It has however lost its charm. We used to go many years ago and it was a great village pub with lots of cats 😀 Now it is another, good, pub bistro.

Popped in here for dinner whilst visiting the area and had a staggeringly good meal. We had the rump steak and sea bream- the steak is probably the best steak I've ever had at a pub or restaurant and the fish was lovely too. Superb.

Nice pub. Rules in place work. Just had a soft drink and a coffee over a couple of ours. Friendly staff. 5 stars.

Really enjoyed our Sunday lunch here, there were 4 of us and we all enjoyed our meals, I'm afraid you dropped a star for the roast potatoes, they needed a lot longer in the oven and had no crispy edges other than that it was lovely

We went for a roast dinner on a sunday afternoon, can't really find anything to complain about! Generous portions & good quality food. Would go again.

Really nice food and great service.

We were on holiday in the area and were walking with our dog and the stag was on route half way round. What a find! The staff could not have been more friendly and accommodating. Very dog friendly too. The service was excellent and the food very tasty. A really busy pub and all staff very hard working and friendly. Of particular note: ollie, Beth, poppy and Tom. Not the cheapest but we have found this wherever we seem to go these days; the cost of eating out just seems to have gone up across the board. If I had to make any criticism at all, it would be lack of veg with the Sunday roast. We love lots of veg and good variety and had we not opted to pay extra for the broccoli and cauliflower cheese, it would have been a bit lacking in our opinion: a bit of cabbage, a few peas and about 5 small chantenay carrots to share. But not a major issue and would definitely not prevent us from returning. The warm apple cake was to die for!!! Would definitely return and had the perfect experience. The pub deserves to do well. Thank you!

Visited the stag again today. Unfortunately the last two visits the food quality has declined. Ate basic steak, very tough to eat. Really disappointed as portion sizes and quality has decline in the last 6-9 months. Get the quality back, it’s a great location
