The staff at Loxley’s are outstanding! Really made our dinner special. Food was great and in a great location in the centre of Stratford.

Very Good restaurant, enjoyed a tender steak, rib eye, and my wife had a king prawn linguine. Both meals were excellent. The waitress, Lauren, was polite, friendly and efficient. The only downside was our table was adjourning a main walkway, but someone has to sit there.. Excellent establishment. Price as expected , Bearing in mind Stratford isn't a bargain town.

Loved it, loved it, loved it. Friendly trendy place with loads of atmosphere serving great food. My wife is a coeliac and the range of gluten free options was amazing. She paid compliments to the chef and said it was the tastiest gluten free food she had tasted when dining out. Take note all those who are gluten free. Really friendly place with cool music background - nothing booming in your ear. In short, just go.

Dined here yesterday with my Mum and Godmother. One of our party has reduced mobility, and she was able to negotiate the entrance and restaurant without problems. We had 3 courses, starter, mains and dessert and all 3 were delightful. Staff were friendly, attentive ( but not overly) and helpful. This was our second visit and will not be our last.

I recently dined at Loxleys Restaurant and Bar in Stratford, and it was a delightful experience. The ambiance was lovely with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The highlights of our meal was the charcuterie sharing platter. It was simply amazing. In addition to the lovely food, they had a fantastic wine selection. Overall, Loxleys offers. superb dining experience with excellent food and drink in a lovely setting.

Amazing meal at this intimate restaurant in Stratford-Upon-Avon. The shrimp tacos had a wonderful sweet oriental relish. The risotto was perfect. The wings were satisfying for our Texan palates. The chicken was a little dry but was excellent with the mustard based sauce. The saffron potatoes were fluffy and tasty. The spicy shrimp pasta was delicious. The steak was cooked perfectly and the onion rings were crisp and delicious. The best balsamic vinegar I've ever had that's made in house. Scallops were nice as was everything else. Service was friendly and efficient. We ordered everything at once, but each course was perfectly timed. You won't be disappointed if you eat here!

Chose this restaurant to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary after reading previous reviews. Was definitely not disappointed. From the moment we walked in we were greeted warmly and congratulated on our anniversary. A hand written card was waiting for us on our table too which was a lovely touch. We had the sharing platter to start and it was enormous, followed by the best chateaubriand we've ever eaten. The staff were what really made the evening, they were so friendly and personable and made us feel relaxed and not rushed. Too full for dessert which was a shame as it all looked amazing! Would highly recommend and would also drive 3 hours just to visit again!!!!

A warm welcome on our first foray into this gem of a restaurant in Stratford. Busy as it was the xmas market weekend, but the staff were unhurried and our orders were quick. Mussels on the lunchtime menu did not give the weight, but was plentiful for the price. Could do with more craft beer choices. All in all a very pleasant experience. Wheelchair accessibility: In an olde worlde eatery spaces between tables were quite tight. Wheelchair users would be wise to book ahead as we did (we are deaf with vision impairment).

December 9, 2024

The bbq chicken wing starter was an impressive start for taste. Fish and Chips were alright. Chips were nice, fish batter overcooked and fish itself was small. Then the tiramisu dessert was disappointing as the sponge layers were so dry. I may have been unlucky and got the end of an old tiramisu? So overall I would give an average review. I was hoping for a bit more wow given the restaurant is on the more expensive side but if I had chosen other dishes it might have been better?

There wasnt room for us when we came in, sat us in the bar area until a table became available. Great service from the get go. Arguably the best Rissoto Ive ever had. My GF is VERY picky and the Sunday roast is near the top of her list of favourites. Readonly priced for the area. Next time we visit we are reserving a table definitely!!! Shout out to our server Russel

We are fairly frequent visitors to Loxleys and once again it didnt disappoint. There is a very varied menu. Staff are attentive and friendly and the service is quick. We had the fritto misto and the feta spring roll for starters - both of which were very good and then our mains varied from sole to steak to pork to chicken - all well presented and cooked. They left us a birthday card which was a nice touch. The only thing that would have been better was to have sat in the main restaurant - we were out the back where the atmosphere wasnt as good.

We went in intending to have their lunch set menu, but once we took the time to look at their main menu we soon changed our mind when we saw the Prawn Linguine. So glad we did, the linguine was amazing, so much flavour! And lots of prawns! Desserts were also lovely, my husband had the treacle tart (which you dont often see) and said it was very tasty. I had the chocolate mousse, which was lovely & was perfectly complemented with the gingerbread ice cream. Overall it was a lovely meal, with great service & atmosphere. If we are in the area again we would definitely return!

What a great find, had a lovely greeting when we arrived and was shown our table for 2, wed pre-booked as we were away for our wedding anniversary, and they had a card for us at the table congratulating us. Nina was our waitress and did an amazing job, nothing was too much, she gave us plenty of time between courses and was still very attentive. Food was fantastic, sharing board to start and we both had prawn linguine, couple of glasses of tempranillo. It was a great experience, would highly recommend, and will go back when we return.

OK - I could bore you to death about what an amazing place this is - You have already read all the other reviews so you know that - its a given. So the food is perfect - the staff are amazing - awesome atmosphere - but I want to focus on something else too. I have two daughters - both of whom are employed at Loxleys. They treat their staff like a family. Without going into the finer details - the love and compassion they have shown my kids is beyond words. They truly are a family business in every sense - and I have no doubt this is WHY the staff are so friendly - because they really are empowered and made to feel like they are of value to the business. Cannot thank them enough.

Lovely food, everything very well cooked and good size portions. We went twice and had Sunday roast beef (good quality and lots of meat) and a la carte. Lamb and fillet steak very nice. Treacle tart, sticky toffee pudding and chocolate mousse all great and generous. I especially liked how there were lots of different elements on the plates (e.g. goats cheese and pepper and sumac sauce and redcurrant sauce and pistachio lamb belly all with the lamb, and raspberry financier and salted caramel and gingerbread/gingerbread ice cream all with the chocolate mousse), so lots of flavours to try that all worked well together and made it seem better value too. We spent quite a lot trying nice wine but the house wine was cheaper. Service was excellent, very friendly and I was astonishes by how fast the dishes came, especially the roast and desserts on the Sunday. The building is small in places but could accommodate us with a wheelchair. There was an accessible toilet but this was up one step. However there was a ramp they could get for us if it was needed so they have tried to make an old building accessible.

On a short Hotel break and decided to eat out. Ordered Lamb for mains unfortunately having problems with delivery so no lamb. Ok Ill choose the duck .. no duck !! Right Ill go for steak yes they have it just under £30 so its going to be good ...Unfortunately tough not tender. Friend ordered butter nut squash risotto. Tasty but portion so small it left her feeling hungry ....come on how much does rice squash and little white wine cost enlarge your portions !! Very noisy table nearby. Im afraid the whole experience left our party cold. I have to say there was one positive , the staff were attentive and pleasant. Unfortunately I can NOT recommend this place and couldnt wait to leave. Overpriced ,cramped space .They just didnt deliver.

Me and my Mums visit to Loxleys was nothing short of spectacular. We were served by the lovely Russell who gave us guidance on how wed like our beef cooked and on what the starter consisted of, as well as just sharing some really welcoming chats with us. On top of this, the food was incredible. The starter which was a black pudding and pulled pork riff on arancini was unlike anything weve ever tasted. Incredible. This was followed by an incredibly succulent roast (we had beef and chicken respectively). We finished with dessert and I had easily the best sticky toffee pudding Ive ever had with banana ice cream and a butterscotch crisp. Probably the best meal weve ever had in Stratford. Highly recommended!

Great meal last night celebrating our last night at Stratford-upon-Avon. Went in for wine and snacks and ended up getting a large meal and plenty of wine & cocktails!!! Welsh rarebit was tremendous, scallops super tasty but a touch over. Steak was cooked excellently, lush chunky chips and the best peppercorn sauce Ive ever had. Fab service and lovely time!

This is a great little local restaurant. The building is an old Tudor style property with wooden exposed beams, low doors so you have to mind your head if you re over 5ft 6in. It has a great atmosphere. The staff are so attentive and want to ensure you have a good time/experience. The food was great - tbh. of all the times I have eaten here I have always had a great quality of meal. The waitress (Emily) was really friendly and looked after us and Alice was great ensuring we had the right food and condiments. This is a gem of a restaurant.

Food was decent, wine selection decent. Our server was an odd mix of overly attentive/rushed early on and then kind of absent later. Not sure what to make of it other than it was made for a bit of an odd dining experience. Both dishes we had were well done, interesting and had some complexity to them, would definitely recommend giving them a go if you re in Stratford

We did not think the price-quality ratio was good. Food was tasty, but not as special as the price suggests. Staff was super friendly and attentive. Nothing to complain about that. There was a card on the table stating that a standard 10% tip was added to the bill to make it easy for us. You could then lower or increase it at your own discretion. We find this a bizarre way of doing things. You give a tip if you are very satisfied. We have therefore refrained from giving the tip. After all, it seemed to us that this had already been included in the prices of the food, given the size of the portions.

I recently visited Loxley Restaurant & Wine Bar and it was an experience I wont soon forget. The moment I walked in, I was struck by the elegant atmosphere and the warm welcome from the staff, making us feel very welcomed. The menu was a great! offering a perfect mix of classic favorites and exciting new dishes. Each plate was a work of art, both in presentation and taste. The wine selection was impressive too! What really stood out was the attention to detail in every aspect, from the ambiance to the service to the branded napkins. Loxley Restaurant & Wine Bar is more than just a meal; its a culinary journey that I highly recommend to anyone looking for a sophisticated yet comfortable dining experience.

I am a picky eater when it comes to how well the seafood and meat are done. But in this case, the scallops was perfect and not overcooked and the lamb was nicely pink. You will need to eat the lamb first otherwise the taste deteriorates as it cools. Service was great and immediate with a good personal touch. In terms of atmosphere and environment, it was cosy and comfortable but the small space and rocky table let it down a bit. But overall a very good experience.

12/23 Repeated the Christmas/Sunday lunch visit we made last year. Unfortunately it was the weekend of the Stratford Christmas Market and it took us over an hour to find parking, so we were horribly late. However, it was no problem for the restaurant despite being really busy and they couldnt have been nicer about it. The food was great again (I had ham hock scotch egg followed by the roast beef) and the service was also excellent. Already looking forward to next Christmas! 12/22. Sunday/Christmas lunch with a group of friends. First visit for all of us. Everyone enjoyed every course - really excellent food and very friendly and efficient waiting staff. Not cheap and wine stupidly expensive, but thats the norm for this type of restaurant. I would have liked an extra plate for my discarded moules shells and a finger bowl but thats the only fault any of us could find. Highly recommended.
