La Dolce Tavola
6 Castle St, RugbyI don't live locally, but often find myself visiting Rugby for work. This is easily the best Italian restaurant I've eaten in and will try to eat here whenever I am in the area. The food is incredible and the service is always friendly. It's always busy, which is testament to how good this place is. Couple of tips, the breads on the starters are plenty big enough for two to share (and I have a big appetite!), also, leave room for dessert! I often find desserts are a let down at most places, not here...All 'home' made and on display in a cabinet as you walk in.

From first enquiring to booking to the tasting to the delivery and all else in between was amazing.
Claire is so friendly and helped us decide flavours and style to match for our wedding. The tasting was so relaxed and explained all in full from price to delivery on the day which helped alleviate further stress of the wedding.
The cake itself was beautiful and so well designed and the taste was so good, we had none left over. 100% recommend.

Clifton Cafe
33 Clifton Rd, RugbyClifton Cafe is an absolute gem in Rugby! My partner and I are regulars here for breakfast, and we truly can't recommend it enough. The food is consistently delicious and made with care.
I’m especially in love with their Turkish breakfast – it’s fresh, authentic, and full of flavour. It’s something you don’t find often in Rugby, and they absolutely nail it. My missus swears by their Eggs Benedict with bacon – a rare and welcome twist, since most places only serve it with ham. The fact that they offer this option shows they really listen to what customers want.
What makes Clifton Cafe even more special are the owners. They’re always warm, welcoming, and genuinely happy to see you. They go out of their way to look after you and make sure you’re comfortable. It's clear they care deeply about both the food and the people who walk through their door.
If you're in Rugby and looking for a fantastic breakfast spot with a warm, friendly vibe, Clifton Cafe should be at the top of your list.

The Boat Restaurant & Bar
Birdingbury Wharf, Rugby Rd, RugbyI do recommend but with some caveats. Please be aware they don't do the bar menu at weekends. I wasn't informed of this when I booked a table for 9 on a Saturday lunchtime. It would have been good to be informed of this when booking. Most of the meals were fine apart from some very small portions. I had what was supposed to be slow cooked belly pork. It was the tiniest bit of burnt meat I have ever been served. When asked if the meals were okay I did say mine wasn't, burnt meat and what was supposed to be fondant potatoes which were just roasted and hard in the middle. My complaint was dealt with efficiently. I was offered another meal but as we had already waited an hour for our food there wasn't time, nor was there time for us to order deserts as we were on the turnaround point of a day trip on a barge. So some good and some bad points. Please be aware service is extremely slow. Would I go back probably not the meals were mid range price but some of the portions were very small. It's a lovely pub but somethings need improving.

Dunchurch Fish Bar
36 Southam Rd, Dunchurch, RugbyHaving never had fish and chips in England, this was a must do for this trip. The folks inside were quite patient with me as I had no idea what I was doing! I came away with a "small" order of fish and chips, which was more than ample, a sausage, a side of mushy peas, and at the last second I noticed the Mars bars and after confirming that, in fact, they will batter and fry them, I added one to my order. The fish and chips were fantastic! I was surprised by my reaction to the sausage and the mushy peas. I ordered the mushy peas because I felt like that is one of those things like eating baked beans with your breakfast, you just had to try it once. I expected that I wouldn't care for them, but they were actually quite good. Also, I'm a huge sausage fan and one bite was enough for me. It just wasn't my cup of tea. Of course the Mars bar was fantastic as well.

The Merchant's Inn
5 Little Church St, RugbyThe Merchants Inn is one of the best pubs in Rugby it has multiple real ales and ciders kept to a very high standard, a selection of craft beers and Belgium beers plus a great selection of low and no alcohol beers, gins and wine. The Merchants is an education. It is very much a “wet” pub so limited food options at times but often food vans are invited to park up or local restaurants do “pop ups” in the pub. This is a destination pub, those in the campaign for real ale (CAMRA) travel specifically to the Merchants, an 18 minute walk or short taxi ride from Rugby Train Station. As voted the best pub in the UK to watch the game of Rugby on match days it is packed. The demographics are amazing, young and old, male and female, a friendly place where all can enjoy a drink or two or three !

A great place to meet up with friends.So, yes go, definitely, but, avoid that raspberry ring. You just best leave it to a professional, for your safety!Kid-friendliness: Bright open and very friendly staff. Stacks of stuff on the menu that my kids would have loved.But not the raspberry ring. That's mine.Wheelchair accessibility: Totally flat access and wide open lower area. Big spaces at tables. Plenty of light. Smooth floor surface. Very wheelchair friendly and everything could be moved and shuffled around. The access lane into the door is dedicated with ropes so you won't be getting tangled up in avoiding scattered pavement tables, they are well to either side leaving straight clear access.Lots of pictures on menu boards and table menus. Staff were very willing to explain and recommend.Dietary restrictions: Pretty much everything is covered, I think. Will find out more next time.

Crick Rd, RugbyWe had pre booked a table and was seated immediately on arrival even though the restaurant was obviously extremely busy.
The person serving the carvery (big lad, quite young) was a pleasure, talking to his customers, asking them about their day and wishing us all a happy Christmas ?.
The meat was proportional to the cost, cooked to perfection ? and fell apart whilst cutting into it
The vegetables were piping hot with a great selection as were the Yorkshire puds, potatoes and thick onion gravy.
There was a full selection of sauces to compliment our meals.

Couple of tips, the breads on the starters are plenty big enough for two to share (and I have a big appetite!), also, leave room for dessert! I often find desserts are a let down at most places, not here...All 'home' made and on display in a cabinet as you walk in.

Pumpkins Deli
19 Broad St, Brinklow, RugbyDespite occasionally going through Brinklow over the years, I wasn't aware of this little gem of a Deli and I visited for weekday lunch upon a local recommendation.
The quality and quantity of food is very generous for the prices stated. Do yourselves a favour a order a brownie to go even if you eat in.

The Merchant's Inn
5 Little Church St, RugbyThe Merchants Inn is one of the best pubs in Rugby it has multiple real ales and ciders kept to a very high standard, a selection of craft beers and Belgium beers plus a great selection of low and no alcohol beers, gins and wine. The Merchants is an education. It is very much a “wet” pub so limited food options at times but often food vans are invited to park up or local restaurants do “pop ups” in the pub. This is a destination pub, those in the campaign for real ale (CAMRA) travel specifically to the Merchants, an 18 minute walk or short taxi ride from Rugby Train Station. As voted the best pub in the UK to watch the game of Rugby on match days it is packed. The demographics are amazing, young and old, male and female, a friendly place where all can enjoy a drink or two or three !

Claire’s Creative Bakes
92 Hillmorton Rd, RugbyAbsolutely delicious cake.
From first enquiring to booking to the tasting to the delivery and all else in between was amazing.
Claire is so friendly and helped us decide flavours and style to match for our wedding. The tasting was so relaxed and explained all in full from price to delivery on the day which helped alleviate further stress of the wedding.
The cake itself was beautiful and so well designed and the taste was so good, we had none left over. 100% recommend.

Clifton Cafe
33 Clifton Rd, RugbyClifton Cafe is an absolute gem in Rugby! My partner and I are regulars here for breakfast, and we truly can't recommend it enough. The food is consistently delicious and made with care.
I’m especially in love with their Turkish breakfast – it’s fresh, authentic, and full of flavour. It’s something you don’t find often in Rugby, and they absolutely nail it. My missus swears by their Eggs Benedict with bacon – a rare and welcome twist, since most places only serve it with ham. The fact that they offer this option shows they really listen to what customers want.
What makes Clifton Cafe even more special are the owners. They’re always warm, welcoming, and genuinely happy to see you. They go out of their way to look after you and make sure you’re comfortable. It's clear they care deeply about both the food and the people who walk through their door.
If you're in Rugby and looking for a fantastic breakfast spot with a warm, friendly vibe, Clifton Cafe should be at the top of your list.
