A superb little spot with very welcoming staff and excellent food.It's quietly tucked away, and I wouldn't have thought to find a lovely restaurant where The Stables is, but the location is lovely, with a nice bit of garden, outdoor seating and a decent amount of parking.The food was very enjoyable -- a small but excellently curated menu focusing on doing a few things and doing them well -- and they had a nice selection of drinks, including my all time favourite, a wonderful Pedro Ximenez (which I strongly recommend to any Port lover).Parking: Just beyond the restaurant. Use Google to drive there and keep to the little road, even when it seems you might actually be going to someone's garden.

My husband and I had Sunday lunch at the Stables yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it. We chose the roast beef and it was delicious as were the great variety of vegetables served with it, especially the crispy roast potatoes.Lovely atmosphere and very friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.

On entry we were seated and then waited 15 minutes for a menu. When viewing the menu the "waiter" who was very hard to understand stated he would return for a drink order in a minute. 10 minutes later he returned and took a drink order. Drinks were bought to the table and food orders taken. Meals arrived 25' later additional drinks were ordered, then a young lad returned stating that the beers orders were not available therefore a re- order was required. The meals were very small on a very big plate, and quite poor. On a visit to the toilet they were not very clean and were patently not checked cleaned throughout the evening. Very expensive bill for not a lot of food, with the food that was presented quite poor. It does appear as though the high final bill was to repay for the renovation and decor. Would not recommend.

We are lucky enough to have eaten many times at The Stables and always had a great meal. Karen makes everyone welcome and all the team are so friendly and you’re not rushed. BUT, last night my wife and I had a meal that was simply superb - the starters of Chicken Taco and Beetroot Cured Salmon were fantastic but the main course of Beef Short rib for me and Hake for my wife were soo good, you just didn’t want the meal to end. So we had desserts of Baked Cheesecake and Blackberry Franzipan to end the meal. We particularly love that ingredients including the meat are very locally sourced and the Woodchester wines are really good. This is a very special restaurant with great atmosphere, wonderful food and drink and worth every penny for truly excellent dining experience. Can not recommend highly enough.

Amazing food and venue. Staff very friendly and attentive. Didn't feel rushed. Worth a visit for a special occasion.
By far the BEST Afternoon Tea I have ever had. Everything was perfect and we will most definitely be returning. There isnt anything we would change about our experience here, it was beyond what we were expecting.
