Hotel restaurant at Stratford Manor Hotel.

Good food and good company at our restaurant in Stratford-upon-Avon. 

The Shakespeare Restaurant brings everyone together around the table, with a menu that changes with the seasons and plenty of choice for anything from dinner for two to a bigger family get-together. Just ask the team for their recommendations. 

For something more casual, the Terrace Bar is spacious, easy-going and made for drinks or a lighter bite. There’s an outdoor terrace too, perfect for alfresco drinks. 

Afternoon Tea brings together finger sandwiches, warm scones with clotted cream and jam, and plenty of cakes and sweet treats, with Prosecco, Hendrick’s gin or Moët Champagne available for an extra treat. 

For a livelier weekend option, Bottomless Brunch pairs a dish from the brunch menu with 90 minutes of unlimited drinks. Private dining is available too for celebrations and get-togethers that need a space of their own.

Super stay at Stratford Manor
Just had a lovely 2 night stay, taking my mum for a birthday treat, along with my youngest child age 5. Pool was the perfect temperature, some fun outdoor games on the terrace, spacious rooms and all very clean. Just a very short bus ride/drive in to Stratford centre itself but felt like you were miles away from all the hustle and bustle of life. Chicken, leak and ham pie was delicious, and all food looked amazing. My daughter really enjoyed the buffet breakfast, can’t fault it. The team of staff completely made the visit 10 out of 10 for us. So friendly, nothing was too much trouble. Special mention to Megan on reception and Dave in the restaurant, outstanding and a credit to the establishment. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely be making a return visit.
A wholesome stay
Lovely stay at Stratford Manor. Usually a 2 night stay, but on this occasion, just the 1 night. Location is superb, short drive into Stratford-upon-Avon. We travelled with a 16month yr old and even with the cot bed that was provided, you aren't struggling for space. Room was clean as always. Customer service from check in to check out and everything in between was 5*. Service with an abundance of smiles. Christmas stay already booked!!!!
Spa day
Lovely relaxing full body massage by Ellie highly recommend
Excellent value and quality
Fantastic deal of dinner, bed and breakfast, use of spa and 25min treatment. I’m leaving my car had a flat battery sbd the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. One of the staff came out with jump leads to help me and sorted it. Couldn’t recommend it more highly.
Loved it
The hotel is well located just outside Stratford a short drive in or you can catch the bus if you want a drink in town, there is a nice calm atmosphere in the hotel which is very clean and well presented the food in the restaurant was lovely and plentiful, the room we had was very clean and spacious, the spa was clean with a warm pool loved it, the staff were helpful and polite nothing was to much trouble, we hope to visit again would recommend it.
Professional staff
From arrival to departure every member of staff we interacted with were very professional and willing to help. Our room was very large and clean, but could do with a repaint in places. Great kids games room and outdoor area. We did not use the pool on this visit. Very good value for money and restaurant food was good.

Lovely hotel
A great hotel, calm and welcoming atmosphere. Room spotless, comfortable bed. Large room with armchair. Warm swimming pool. Lovely food. Special mention for David in the restaurant. Went above and beyond to assist with food for my very poorly husband. Thank you 🙏
Easy relaxing break
Four of us looking for a new regular spa break and think we've found it. Lovely welcome on reception and all staff encountered were very friendly. Food was varied and tasty and again, staff very helpful. Treatments were great but we were surprised at 2 beds, 2 therapists 1 room. Not a problem for me and my besty but would like to have known beforehand. All in all a wonderful 3 day break and I think we'll be back.
Excellent break
My friend and I booked a two night break at Stratford Manor Hotel. The location is excellent - set in the Warwickshire countryside but only a five minute drive into the centre of Stratford-upon-Avon. From the moment we entered the lobby we were impressed. I must praise the excellent Receptionist who was so friendly and efficient, she set the scene for the rest of our stay. Our twin room was nicely furnished and the beds were very comfortable. The en-suite was clean and tasteful. Our first night dinner was excellent, in fact we immediately booked in for the next night! The service stood out for me as being better than much more expensive hotels. The restaurant manger couldn’t have been more helpful. Both mornings we enjoyed choosing from the huge selection available from the buffet breakfast. We then spent time in the heated pool and enjoyed the steam room and sauna before heading off into historic Stratford. No jacuzzi but you can’t have it all!
Excellent Services and hotel
Everything was prefect! Reception - Ruby was amazing helpful and Bar staffs and breakfast staffs were very attentive! Food also up to very high standard. Room was clean and neat we have very lovely time :) THANK YOU
Lovely weekend break
We stayed at the Stratford Manor Hotel. 7 ladies on a ladies spa weekend. Twin rooms were very comfortable and clean. Staff are really friendly and very helpful. We used the restaurant the first night and the food and service was very good. Afternoon tea on the second day of our stay was lovely. Will definitely be back. I had Maisy for my facial and she was lovely.
Great place to stay
From the moment we arrived till the moment we left we had a wonderful experience. Everyone was so friendly and helpful it was a pleasure to stay. The rooms were comfortable, clean and all you needed for a stay. The Spa was equally as lovely and we had the best facial and massage we have ever had. The food was delicious and hot and all the staff are so friendly and helpful, we would definitely stay here again and a huge recommendation to all our family and friends.
A Wonderful Birthday Stay at Stratford Manor Hotel
We are regular guests at the Q Hotels chain, and in particular, Stratford Manor Hotel, and once again we had a wonderful overnight stay. This visit was especially special as it was my birthday. The hotel went above and beyond with some lovely birthday treats, which made me feel really valued and genuinely special. It was a thoughtful touch and made the occasion even more enjoyable. Being members of the Breakaway Club is definitely worthwhile. You really do feel like a VIP when you stay, and the benefits and little touches make a real difference to the overall experience. The staff are always warm, welcoming and friendly, which makes us feel at home every time we visit. We honestly cannot recommend Stratford Manor and the Q Hotels chain highly enough. We look forward to returning and enjoying another great stay.
61st Birthday Treat.
Very friendly helpful staff. Pleasant quiet location. All essentials were in the room but think i would prefer to have a room with the fridge etc. Found the mattress a little uncomfortable for me. Noisy people in the next room to us late at night but it wouldn't put me off staying again. The back massage and facial were first class. Overall it was very good and most enjoyable.
Stratford Manor Hotel
Lovely hotel. Lots of amenities including a small but welcoming spa. What really makes this hotel stand out is the staff. Everyone of them professional but friendly and can't do enough to help.
Great warm welcome
Megan on reception was very helpful and super polite she went out of her way to ensure we had all we needed, she was so patient and personable, a warm welcome and top quality customer service
Good for a spa weekend
Stayed in Oct 26 for a spa weekend with 3 other adults. We’ve stayed here quite a few times over the years and always have a lovely time. The rooms are spacious, well equipped and comfortable. Our massages were great too. The food is delicious, and shout out to our server David, who provided service with a smile :-) The car chargers are plentiful and fast. A few things could do with a bit of attention: *Gym- it has always been small but this year it was also depleted. No dumbbells or kettlebells between 3kg and 12.5kg bar one lone 8kg dumbbell. Two broken dumbbells had been left behind the rack gathering dust. *Coffee machines were mainly broken/malfunctioning- not ideal when the breakfast room is v busy! *The spa could do with a good clean.
A great Spa weekend
We were on a Spa weekend. The rooms were fine and the food was excellent. Well done, David, in the restaurant who attended to our every need and well done to Olivia and Ellie in the spa for giving us excellent treatments. Our only criticism is that the gym is small and some weights were missing but the pool, steam room and sauna were lovely. We've been on spa weekends here before and will be back again!
Relaxing and clean spa with professional staff
Came here with my Mum for a spa day. We were welcomed by everyone we interacted with. Delicious light lunch and spa was very relaxing as well as clean. Had a lovely facial with Jade who made me feel comfortable whilst also sharing her knowledge. Overall a great day!
