The best restaurants in Amberley and Woodchester Stroud South West

This shop and cafe is the first one in the country situated inside a church. It has been beautifully designed to complement the ecclesiastical architecture and has a good range of produce all beautifully displayed within the shop. The cafe sells a good mix of teas, coffee, cakes, pastries and sandwiches plus hot soup during the winter months. Customers can sit inside the church or outside when the weather permits. Dogs on leads are permitted in the cafe but not in the shop. There’s a separate door for those taking their dogs into the cafe. Water bowls are provided both inside and outside. We visited with friends on a Sunday afternoon, choosing delicious cakes, tea and coffee and were served by very friendly and helpful staff. It is a good place to stop for walkers and cyclists being surrounded by the hundreds of acres of Minchinhampton Common which is managed by the National Trust and therefore has open access to everyone. I would definitely recommend visiting this delightful venue and I’m sure you’ll be given a warm welcome.

Localised excellence. The Royal Oak perfectly mixes the homely atmosphere of your local pub with the high end quality of a top tier restaurant Welcomed in as a local by Trish and her bar crew while treated to the well crafted meals of Niall and his catering team - it’s a must visit spot if you’re in the area! For any Guinness lovers, it’s the best in the area - poured to perfection each and every time. If it’s the food that you’re stopping in for, nothing will beat the Sunday Roast from the Trolley - bringing a touch of old-school charm and theatre to your meal! Whether you’re a local or just passing through, The Royal Oak has left a lasting impression and is a gem that shouldn’t be missed Charlotte & Colm

Loved it! We just wanted a one night getaway for New Year … the staff are so lovely and the location is beautiful. Will definitely go back when we get some nicer weather as there’s plenty of land surrounding to go for a walk. Breakfast was beautiful. Room was basic but just what we needed.

Quick service but the pizzas are terrible. Pretty sure they're frozen. Pick up a piece and all the cheese just falls off. Won't be ordering again. Disgusting.

INCREDIBLE. I’ve never been to a burger van that has given me quality food along with fantastic customer service. The portion sizes are great and the costs are low, always greeted with a smile every time. Not only that but the food tastes amazing. Highly recommend, will definitely be a regular from now on!

Came for a pre Christmas lunch, had a couple of burgers, and felt cosy in the surroundings. The view was foggy but still spectacular.

We stayed for one night at the Amberley and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The staff were attentive and put us at our ease as soon as we arrived. The room was spotless and full of character. The breakfast was excellent and in a very pleasant and bright room. We left feeling thoroughly relaxed and refreshed. Thank you!
