Shipston-On-Stour

About the restaurant

Solanche, Richard and the rest of The Royal Oak team are extremely proud to offer Michelin starred dining in rural Warwickshire, on the edge of the Cotswolds.

Our food offering is what we like to call ‘proper country food’- wild meats and foraged ingredients from our home area. Our aim is simple: we want to tell the story of our community, the producers themselves and how we’ve utilised their ingredients.

Sometimes a dish will be on the menu for a six week period, fully celebrating the early or late season. Conversely a dish may be fleeting - a week, a service or even just for a single table of regulars - a micro-seasonal snapshot, which gets us thinking and talking with our local community of producers about next years planting or hunting, allowing us to dream about revisiting an idea and developing it further the following year.

About the restaurant

Our menu is based on the principles of Royal Thai Cuisine but with a simple presentation and a strong emphasis on fresh, high-quality ingredients that give exceptional taste. We also follow the traditions of the best Thai restaurants of Bangkok, with à la minute preparations that allow our chefs to maximize the aromatic qualities of fresh Thai herbs and spices.

We serve food from midday, along with a carefully chosen wine list, beers and spirits.
In addition to A La Carte menu every day, we offer lunch box dishes, which are smaller portions of our favorites, served in a wooden ‘lunch box‘ daily 12-2:30 pm (excluding Sundays)

The restaurant is also an Art Gallery setting which is always evolving as the artworks are sold and replaced with new pieces. Our entire art collection is modern, fun and curated.
We are a favorite destination for many regulars in Warwickshire!-We have just won the PRESTIGE Award for Best Thai Restaurant of the Year – Central England (Warwickshire) 2023 2024

Absolutely amazing service all round, from the venue, to the staff, to the food, to the sheesha, everything was on point. All staff was amazing very friendly, provided a 5* treatment to every customer not just myself and my Mrs. We loved the energy we loved the vibes and to top it off the food and mocktails were 10/10. We travelled from Manchester, it took us 2.5 hours to get there, it was absolutely worth its while, worth every penny we spent. Exactly the kind of service and food you expect especially when you travel a long way. I wanted to thank everyone at the venue today who made it special for us. Having said that my only negative feedback would be, is that if you’re asking the customers at pre booking stage (online) if the visit is for a special occasion, I.e. Wedding Anniversary, birthdays etc etc you should be able to facilitate setting up special requests, such as having a table set up with any special messages, it gave the option to add a message at pre booking stage however it wasn’t something that wasn’t facilitated, bringing over the dessert after food was a nice touch, which has congratulations on there, but it would have been even more special and memorable if there was a table pre set with special messages. I can imagine the business is making good money and attracting customers from all over England, and I’m pretty sure it wouldn’t be to cost effective to have these special request set up. But yes we both loved it and would like to thank you once again for an amazing evening!

About the restaurant

Nestled in the picturesque village of Lowonsford, on the banks of the Stratford Canal, between winding country roads that used to be part of the Forest of Arden, The Fleur De Lys is the very best kind of country pub. Packed full of quaint charm and quirky corners beneath its C16th wooden beams, The Fleur is a cosy haven in the winter and an extensive paradise in the summer. There are so many tiny wonders packed into this historic building that you will always find something new to fall in love with when you visit. Our garden boasts an acre of land to run riot on and a low level wooden children’s playground, alongside over 30 tables and benches. We’re ideally situated for walkers and ramblers who wish to explore the canal towpath or a variety of local walks. If you’re intending on zooming through this part of Warwickshire on a bicycle, The Fleur makes an excellent intermediary watering hole to fortify you for the ride ahead.

About the restaurant

Located in the historic town of Kenilworth in the heart of Warwickshire, The Cross is an award-winning pub that combines Michelin-starred food with a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere.

Under the guidance of chef-director Adam Bennett, we have held a Michelin star for over nine years and are proud to boast three AA Rosettes. We received a Good Food Award Gold Seal in 2021.

The Cross is housed in a Grade II listed 19th-century inn and has been sympathetically restored to retain its heritage alongside contemporary touches that make it a fabulous place to enjoy great food, a casual atmosphere and informal but attentive service.

Our main dining room is a former school room that leads to a cosy and welcoming bar - previously a butcher's shop.

Another dining room overlooks the pass, where guests can glimpse the team of chefs busily at work.

We have a green and spacious pub garden, perfect for aperitifs, cocktails and post-dinner drinks.
