The best restaurants in Alcester Stratford-on-Avon West Midlands

Saturday 8th February 2025, we went out with Liz and Jason to celebrate my husband's Belated Birthday at ‘The Wheatsheaf’ in Coleshill. We arrived for 7.00pm and were shown to a very nice table in a cosy corner, which was nice. We looked at the menus and then the waitress came to take our order for food and drinks. We drank passion fruit spritzer, larger, bitter and rose wine with our meal. We all went to the help yourself salad bar and we all got bowls of salad and bread rolls as our starters and we talked and chatted and caught up on news whilst waiting for our main courses. The food when it arrived was very hot and well presented. Liz and Jason for their main course had wing and wave combo of half a rotisserie chicken, 8oz rump steak and tempura king prawns served with chips, rainbow coleslaw and hot honey drizzled corn bread. My husband had half a rotisserie chicken with BBQ sauce and served with sweet corn and sage and onion French fries. I had the BBQ chicken stack of chicken topped with back bacon and Monterey Jack cheese & BBQ sauce and served with chips, rainbow slaw and hot honey drizzled corn bread which was very nice. We all had desserts; Liz and I had the mini dessert with coffee afterwards, (which was ice cream with a toffee sauce & lemon sauce for Liz). Jason had the Rocky Road ice cream sundae, which was huge. My husband had the apple pie served with hot creamy custard. Liz and I had a Bailey’s latte coffee and a cappuccino afterwards. Unfortunately, I felt the New Menu, was very much like the old one and I must admit I found the choice for me limiting.
