We are one of the oldest public houses in the country, dating back to 1150, located in the rural Warwickshire village of Whatcote, which can be found between Shipston on Stour and Stratford upon Avon.
We proudly offer a bar with pool table and darts, alongside our Michelin starred dining room, which showcases terroir-driven, ‘proper country food’, we focus on wild meats and foraged ingredients. 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.
