Stroud restaurants with food menus

The Canteen

➤ Market Street, GL6 0DA, Stroud, United Kingdom

Cafés • Sushi • Coffee • Drinks

"I had a terrible experience at The Canteen during lunch on a Saturday. My son took me there as a surprise, but we were disappointed with our meal. The weather was cold and the restaurant was not very warm. We ordered cheese on toast and a breakfast, along with two glasses of water. The option of cakes was limited, with only vegan options available on a busy Saturday. We were directed to a table at the back, but then told to move to another area. The ceiling lamps were too low, causing my son to hit his head. The table was dirty and the area was cold due to the doors constantly being opened and closed by staff. Our meals arrived and were unsatisfactory. The cheese on toast was overloaded with cheese in a sandwich, with tomato and cucumber on the side as an afterthought. My son's big breakfast looked inedible, with burnt bacon, tomatoes, and mushrooms, a blackened sausage, and hard toast. The only saving grace was the runny poached egg. The ambience was cold and dirty, with uncomfortable metal chairs. We will not be returning to The Canteen and do not recommend it."

The Ale House

➤ 9, John Street, Stroud, United Kingdom

Sushi • Cafés • Pizza • Seafood

"We had a table booked for 11 people at 13:00 for the set Sunday lunch menu (beef or asparagus and mint tart). We were going to have 8 vegetarian options and 3 beefs, but were told there weren't enough vegetarian portions. There were a total of 5 vegetarians among us, and some people that don't like beef. 3 people decided to change to the beef option, but there still weren't enough vegetarian options. I find it absolutely ridiculous that there were only 3 vegetarian tarts available at 13:00. When asked if we could supplement the tart with extra vegetables, we were denied. Absolutely horrible service and a severe lack of preparation. We decided to leave and won't come back.

The Nippy Chippy

➤ Gloucester Road 29, GL10 2NZ, Stroud, United Kingdom

Fish • Drinks • British • Fast Food

"This place has been our 'go to ' for fish and chips for years but the last 3 or 4 times the delivery has been late. Most recently it was an hour past the *end* of our delivery slot by the time it turned up really frustrating when we have a baby to put to bed. I rang up to complain and was told the manager would ring back to sort it out but they never did. I understand that they get busy, especially at the weekend, but why offer 15 minute delivery slots if you can 't fulfil them? The food by the time it got to us was like warm and past its best Service: Delivery Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £1–10 Food: 3 Service: 2"

The Old Lodge

➤ Minchinhampton Common, Stroud I-GL6 9AQ, United Kingdom

Pub • Seafood • British • Vegetarian

"I visited in October 2021. A very welcome lunch after a great walk on the common. They welcome dogs which is just as well given the location but they really do like to see them. The food was good, I enjoyed the duck with was nice a pink, the skin could have been crisper in my opinion for the price. Dessert was tasty. I really the feel this restaurant has, lots of different rooms so it feels intimate and cosy. Great outdoor space for better weather too. I would recommend booking at the weekends."

Fromebridge Mill

➤ Fromebridge Lane, Stroud, United Kingdom

Meat • Steak • Coffee • Cheese

"I recently visited the Christmas market in Gloucester and highly recommend it. On my way back, I stopped at the Fromebridge for a Sunday carvery, which was my first time trying it. I had a fantastic experience! There was a generous amount of meat—I chose turkey and gammon, both perfectly cooked. I also managed to pile on seven vegetables, three types of potatoes, and plenty of stuffing. Unfortunately, the pigs in blankets I ordered were supposed to be delivered to the table but never arrived, though it wasn't a big issue. My only suggestion would be to keep the vegetables warm, as they tend to get cold even under the heat lamps. A little extra heat would definitely enhance the meal. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience, and the staff were as attentive and friendly as ever."

The Lord John

➤ 15 17 Russell Street, GL5 3AB, Stroud, United Kingdom

Sushi • Cafés • Steak • British

"The Lord John offers a selection of clearly marked vegan options on their menu, mostly consisting of sides. They also have a tasty sweet potato and chickpea curry that I thoroughly enjoyed. For breakfast, they offer a simple yet satisfying option of toast and fruit for vegans. I did not have the opportunity to visit for lunch, but based on my experience, I would recommend trying their vegan options."

Stirrup Cup

➤ Cheltenham Road, Bisley GL6 7BL, United Kingdom, Stroud

Pubs • Steak • Cheese • British

"We were trying to find somewhere to eat on the way to visit family and found this winderful pub.One of the locals recommended the Sunday roast. This was an excellent choice! The great thing is they had the option of a smaller portion, perfect for smaller appetites.The food was beautifully presented and served with freshly cooked vegetables and a cauliflower cheese that was as good as my homemade perfectly cheesy and I would say a hint of colemans mustards! Delicious. Added to this it came with a piping hot jug of gravy, so often there is not enough when served in the meal.The staff were pleasant and friendly, I would highly recommrnd this lovely pub."

The Pilot Inn

➤ United Kingdom, GL2 4JE, Stroud

Pubs • Beer • Steak • British

"Lovely sunny day, I decided to take my son to this place for an afternoon ice cream and a drink. The bar staff had no idea what they were doing. They didn 't know how to order a pudding on its own without a meal . They then struggled to find out the table number we were sitting on even though it was about 6m from the bar. We waited 45 minutes for our ice cream, and it never came out. The floors were sticky and the tables were dirty. We decided to cut our losses and leave without eating. We didn 't bother with a refund because it was enough of a challenge to get them to put it through the till for us to pay let alone get the money back Avoid at all costs. This place is a dive"

Tomari-gi

➤ Stroud House, Station Rd, Stroud, England, GL5 3AN, United Kingdom

Sushi • Asian • Mexican • Japanese

"I absolutely loved the food at this restaurant! The staff was fantastic and provided great service in a lovely atmosphere. I ordered the Black sesame ramen and the Katsu curry to go, and thoroughly enjoyed both dishes. The prices were reasonable, with the average cost per person ranging from £10 to £20. I would rate the food 4 out of 5, the service 5 out of 5, and the atmosphere 5 out of 5. Overall, a fantastic dining experience."

Rose and Crown Inn

➤ 3 The Cross, Stroud, United Kingdom

Meat • Soup • Steak • Cheese

"The wife and I decided to have dinner here, the front bar area was fairly busy and while there were tables available and after enquiring about dinner we were left for what seemed like an age standing in the middle of the room. We were eventually shown to a table out the back in a corner on our own where the atmosphere was non existent. When at the table we were asked what we wanted to drink I asked what do you have on tap? The response was well what do you want, to which we both ended up going around the pub to the other side to see what they had. The menus were given to us and I couldn't get over the 8.95 for a scotch egg and tomato sauce! The food we did order was tasty although over priced. After we had finished eating we told the lady we would go around and have a drink at the bar where the atmosphere seemed to be, only to be told no you can't sorry its full !! We decided to leave only to notice the empty bar and tables in the bar area still empty, presumably because they were laid up fo 4 people and not 2. Overall ... highly priced for mediocre food with bad customer service."

Fortune Takeaway

➤ 16 Westward Rd, Stroud, United Kingdom, GL5 4JQ

Fish • Asian • Chinese • Fast Food

"If i told you that the best part of the meal was the prawn crackers that should tell you everything you need to know. Ordered the most basic dishes..prawn crackers, chicken chow mein, chicken fried rice and sweet and sour chicken balls. I kid you not but none of the food was seasoned! The rice was plain boiled rice with egg and chicken. The chow mien was plain noodles on one side with overcooked beansprouts and onions on the other which was drowning in a gloopy clear liquid. The chicken balls were overcooked but edible. We had to add our own soy sauce!"

Bens Chinese Takeaway

➤ New Street, Stroud, United Kingdom

Food • Chicken • Chinese • Delivery Services

"So, picture this: I stroll into Ben 's joint expecting a flavor fiesta in my mouth, but what do I get? A lukewarm greeting and an interior that 's as exciting as watching paint dry. Seriously, they need to hire an interior decorator who didn 't flunk out of design school. Now, let 's talk about the menu. It 's like they threw darts at a Chinese takeout menu and whatever it landed on, they added. Variety is the spice of life, but Ben 's takes it to a whole new level of confusion. General Tso 's chicken meets sweet and sour pork in a bizarre dance of culinary chaos. But hey, the food wasn 't a total disaster. It was edible, I guess. If you 're into that kind of thing. I 've had more exciting flavor explosions from a microwave dinner, though. And the portions? It 's like they 're rationing rice in a post-apocalyptic world. I left hungrier than a vulture at a vegan buffet. Service, oh boy. The waitstaff was about as attentive as a sloth on sedatives. I had to wave my arms like I was directing air traffic just to get a dang refill on my water. And don 't get me started on the wait time – I could 've grown a beard waiting for my Kung Pao chicken. Now, let 's talk ambiance. The place is about as cozy as a Siberian prison cell. The lighting is so dim; I thought I was having dinner in a cave. And the decor? It 's like they raided a thrift store from the '80s and said, Yeah, this 'll do. In conclusion, Ben 's Chinese Cuisine is the kind of place you go to when you 've lost all hope for a fantastic meal but still want to convince yourself you made a reasonable choice. It 's not the worst, but it 's not winning any culinary awards. Three stars, only because I 'm feeling generous today. Cheers to mediocrity!"

The New Inn

➤ Waterley Bottom, Stroud, United Kingdom

Pub • Steak • Drinks • British

"Are you searching for a peaceful countryside escape for dining? Look no further, as this hidden gem in the valley is the perfect spot. We had a fantastic meal here to celebrate our anniversary and highly recommend the ribeye steak and the wagyu burger. Both dishes were cooked to perfection and served with delicious chips. The blue cheese topping was also a standout, living up to the rave reviews. Additionally, I suggest trying the rhubarb cider and, if they offer a selection of spirits, a small taste of the green tea vodka. Cheers!"

The Ram Inn

➤ High Street, Stroud I-GL5 5EL, United Kingdom

Pubs • Fish • Tapas • British

"We visited The Opposite in the middle of the week and decided to stop in and check out the lunch menu. It appeared to be a very inviting, traditional pub and we were not disappointed. We were warmly greeted by friendly, helpful, and capable staff. With many options on the menu, we chose the baguettes. The menu offered a variety of appetizers, main courses, and desserts including vegan and small plate options. We highly recommend the bratwurst and bacon baguettes served with salad and chips. They also had a selection of quality beers, wines, and spirits as well as all the usual mixers and drinks. We will definitely be returning when we are in the Bussage area. The surroundings were stunning and beautiful."

The Bear Inn Pub

➤ George Street, GL6 7BD, Stroud, United Kingdom

Pub • Pubs • Full • Steak

"Had Sunday roast for three of us (beef, lamb and nut roast). Great service and the everyone's roast was perfect. The lamb was tender and the veg were really well cooked (the red cabbage was especially tasty). The extra treat of couliflower cheese was a bonus and unexpected. Service was great warm and welcoming and very reasonably priced. This was our first visit under new management and ouldn't be more happier. Also being such a lovely old pub in one of the prettiest villages in the area is another added bonus. Can I give 6 stars?"

The menu included fried salt fish,curried crab, prawn gumbo, pork ribs curry goat, jerk chicken rice and peas and corn on the cob with optional extra sides and a choice from two desserts. All at a very fair price. Many thanks to Jonathan, Becky and team."

We will definitely be back every day during our visit in September. Service, food quality, and atmosphere all received a perfect score of 5. Highly recommended dishes include the Chocolate Brownie and Cheese Cake. Meal type was lunch and the price per person ranged from £1-10."

The food was absolutely delicious, earning a perfect score of 5 out of 5. The flavors were spot on, and everything was thoughtfully prepared. The service was equally impressive, also rated 5 out of 5. The staff was friendly and efficient, ensuring that my order was processed quickly and accurately. As for the atmosphere, I would give it a solid 4 out of 5. While I enjoyed the vibe, I had the meal at home, so I missed out on the in-restaurant experience. Overall, I highly recommend this place for a delicious and convenient dinner!"
