Second visit here, really beautiful location, stayed at their Vicarage which is stunning and peaceful. Top billing though is the food and wine, all delicious and lacking the nonsensical triumphalism and pretension of other Michelin starred venues. Simply seasonal, local food cooking with care, precision and style. Sweetbread starter, duck main, spiced pear and chocolate dessert all faultless. In addition... More

I recently took my family here for lunch during the week and must say it was absolutely superb! The staff were wonderful and very polite, and the food was sensational, not cheap but worth every penny. It was lovely to find another restaurant, besides Castle House, in the Herefordshire area of such high quality, I really was very impressed and... More

Having eaten in a few michelin starred establishments, I have come to expect a certain quality in the atmosphere and comfort as well as food and service. I felt The Stagg was lacking where all was concerned. It was a cold evening so I was delighted to be placed near to the wood burner. However, at 7.30pm this was already... More

we enjoyed a great meal with two friends with the service from reception to departure complimenting the food. Starters ranged from foie gras through shrimps and great waldorf salad. My main was duck, fish and lamb equally excellent. Bread and butter pudding par excellence. All in all, a delight

We booked a lunch with kids on Saturday and although the food was good I would not say it had the wow factor. My duck duo was good without being spectacular and my wife's sea bream was similar. The kids food was excellent and good value and the service was first class.

Went for Sunday lunch, staff are lovely, but food was a bit hit and miss. Roast beef was excellent as was chocolate mousse dessert. Veggie main was salty and not up to much, tapioca pudding was sadly tasteless. Gastronomic indifference.

Had weekday lunch and loved everything - warm friendly atmosphere, great food - brilliant value and when I asked the owner for a pudding wine to suit my pud, she brought me two (one foc) because she noted that we planned to share. It was such a thoughtful gesture and made the start of our holiday really perfect. Can't wait... More

We have been fortunate to visit The Stagg (too!) many times over the years, and our latest trip (this time with friends from Leeds in tow) was fantastic as always. We visited on a Saturday night, so the pub must have been full and there was a great atmosphere. We had a lovely table in the old stable area and... More

We called for lunch recently after reading so many good reviews. The ambience and service were first rate - a pleasant dining room, friendly and attentive staff, Butty Bach beer and Robinson's cider on tap. A great start. The crisps with foamed balsamic vinegar and warm breads were a nice touch, however my wife did not particularly enjoy her pressed... More
