Our French restaurant in Stratford-upon-Avon
To dine or not to dine? Not much of a question, really. Inside the historic Swan’s Nest at Bridgefoot, looking out over the River Avon, our Bistrot brings proper French food to Shakespeare’s hometown. A riverside lunch, a cosy dinner before the theatre, or a celebration with the whole family: Steak Frites, Moules Marinière and Crème Brûlée play their part every time.
Mornings start with breakfast at the Bistrot: continental breakfast plus a cooked dish of your choice for £14.50.
For lunch and dinner, choose the full À la Carte, or our Menu Pierre set menu, 2 courses £20.95 or 3 courses £24.95, served all day Sunday to Friday and Saturday until 5pm.
Car Parking: Swan’s Nest Lane car park, CV37 7LS.

Private Dining
Tucked just behind The Bear pub, the Clopton Room is full of character and bathed in natural light. It’s made for the occasions that call for a little more intimacy: a celebration dinner, a long lunch with old friends, or a meeting that deserves better than a conference call.
Our private dining space seats up to 30 guests and is available to hire any day of the week.
The Bear
Right next door to the Swan’s Nest, our pub The Bear has a riverside spot with views across the Avon. Expect local ales, classic pub food and a proper welcome.
