Soak up summer in our beer garden

Tucked away in the heart of Stow-on-the-Wold, our historic pub boasts a quaint beer garden, offering a serene escape from the town’s hustle and bustle. We have six beach huts which can sit up to six people, perfect for those who want to be in the sunshine but also would enjoy the privacy. Step into our charming garden oasis and relax with a cold beer, sip a refreshing cocktail, or savour seasonal flavours from our summer menu.

Seasonal dishes for alfresco dining

Nothing tastes better than delicious, seasonal dishes enjoyed outside in the summer sun (perhaps with a cold beer or nice glass of wine). We’re proud to use seasonal produce from British suppliers, meaning our summer menus are full of flavour and feel-good freshness. From lighter salads, to family-friendly feasts, there’s something for any mood and any occasion.

Huge range of Cocktails

Sip spritzes and cold beers

No Cotswolds beer garden experience is complete without a refreshing drink in hand, so take your pick from our curated wine selection or sample beers and ales, brewed by us. Feeling tropical? Sit back, relax on our outside seating with one of our tempting cocktails. There’s nothing more refreshing than our Limoncello Spritz – bringing a taste of the Mediterranean to the Cotswolds. For non-drinkers, our Wild Berry Spritz brings the best British summer feels.
