The Wheatsheaf Harvester in Stratford-on-Avon

Stunner of a space. Several different rooms keep this restaurant feeling very cozy and warm. There is a small bar w/ a handful of seats (be aware that the full menu is not available at the bar).The Woodsman sharing platter is a great way to get a taste of the restaurants flavors and cooking. Wild venison scotch egg, muntjac lollipops, cauliflower croquettes.Reservation highly advised.

Amazing restaurant:The Woodsman welcomes you in a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. It immediately makes you feel at home. But do not be fooled: what's in your plate is fine dining at its best. All ingredients are locally sourced and they are optimally used. Everything is scrumptious and the portions are generous too. An absolute delight.

Well: the food was good, and the service was nice, but nothing was on point: I had to ask "we have side plates but no bread; is there bread?" And then they brought it; the starter and main were genuinely good; but the dessert was obviously microwaved and lukewarm (tarte tatin in five minutes?) This is a good restaurant that only intermittently cares.

Booked meal as part of a birthday experience staying in the hotel.The chicken liver parfait was incredible.Unfortunately the main event which was beef rump was not good and the leeks were stringy, on speaking to the manager she arranged to replace both meals straight away and was very apologetic.The replacement venison meal was absolutely delicious, though very rich , it was served with an extra venison sausage and mash on the side.On leaving we were told that the main courses had been taken off the bill which we weren't expecting.The Woodman obviously has an excellent reputation you can see that by the reviews, I would like to commend the manager for the way she handled our complaint, and thank her for the way she dealt with it.We Would still come back and eat there again if we are ever in Stratford in the future.

Mothers birthday meal as reccommended by friends.. It was a beautiful meal, food was just perfect.. had the edge that others don't! Really relaxed environment.. staff were mega efficient and friendly and not in your face! Highly recommend the experience!

The most amazing food I have eaten in a very long time. I have eaten in a lot of restaurants over the years and by far this is one of the best. The food was so fresh and tasted out of this world cooked to perfection.The staff are very good and helpful and the setting for the restaurant is perfect. We live a hour away but shall be traveling back for an evening meal then driving back home. It is really worth a visit. Fantastic.

Located in a beautiful Grade || listed building the restaurant provides locally sourced produce based on a "field to fork" philosophy. Fantastic a la carte menu supported by a good wine list/spirit list and cocktail menu. The restaurant offers pre-dinner drinks in either an open bar or dinner's only private area, which add to the unique experience of The Woodsman. The quality of the produce is excellent and you can tell the Chef and his service team have worked hard to deliver a great experience. If you are visiting Stratford Upon Avon The Woodsman is a must - I recommend you book in advance.

Excellent lunch enjoyed today. Limited menu but results in quality ingrediants, diverse choice and cooking at high level. Front of house could do with some better training and co-ordination but staff are friendly. Good experience.

Absolutely brilliant Sunday lunch. Fantastic menu with some great autumn seasonal additions. All of our guests roasts were cooked to perfection, Beef, Pork & Chicken.Lovely wine menu with some delicious options by the glass. Service was excellent, very reasonably priced considering the quality of produce.

Absolutely fabulous meal & service - completely exceeded our wildest hopes. A foodie’s delight with incredible atmosphere & lovely staff. Location is impossible to beat too, central & near attractions. The wood fired brick oven is impressive, as is the orchestration of the chef’s team - get a set in that room in you can! We went for lunch & would go back again, would love to try their dinner menu.
