Star & Garter in Warwick

Food’s good but I prefer it for a drink

The food was average but very expensive

I booked the Star n Garter in leamington 2 weeks in advance online . Arrived at the said time . No table ready , waited 10 mins to be seated. They then proceeded to eject some people from a table and then dragged 3 tables and pushed them together to squeeze our group of 10 people in next to the main entrance/ exit. The tables were sticky. Ordered drinks and the waitress brought the wrong drinks plus 5 more drinks we didn't order to our table . I have no complaints on the starters. When we asked for mains , it took over an hour for the Christmas mains to arrive, which were Luke warm and far to small for a Christmas meal. Service was shoddy to say the least , cutlery was just dumped at the end of the table. To add insult to injury , they presented us with the wrong bill , trying to charge us for 22 people when infact there was only 10 people in our party. It then took 3 attempts to get the correct bill. This is an accurate account of the night.

Lovely setting, lovely welcome, great service from friendly and attentive staff, dog friendly in the bar area and best Sunday roast! Every individual part of it was delicious! We will definitely recommend and definitely will be back soon 😋

We had our works Christmas party in the private room upstairs, the food was great and the service was good too! Thank you for having us!

Very nice place, great atmosphere, good food. The pacan tart is delicious. The service was very very nice. I recommend

Great food and friendly service. The beef and ale pie was absolutely delicious. They made us feel welcome so we'll definitely be coming back.

Absolutely excellent family lunch today (30 Nov). The service from arrival, throughout, and departure was 2nd to none. All food as expected and ordered. An example of how to get it just right. Thank you to all who served and fed us today

Absolutely amazing pie. Gravy top draw. Staff so helpful, service brilliant. You will not be able to top it locally - just go here 10/10

Went for a Sunday Roast and was unimpressed by the cleanliness (sticky, dirty table, and cobwebs) and service. We were really excited but probably wouldn't go back, it really wasn't worth the cost.

My husband and I visited for a last minute roast without a booking at the busiest period of the day on a Sunday - we were warmly welcomed and seated at a cosy table, and waited on by the kindest, most enthusiastic staff. A delightful experience from start to finish, with scrumptious food. Looking forward to our next visit, thank you so much team for making our visit so lovely!

Popped here today after work , amazing service , and the food was beautiful . The owner made us feel welcome and comfortable, and nothing was too much trouble , would defo recommend and would come again . Great service, great food , friendly staff and environment, good prices , good range of food , good portion sizes , well layed out x

Sunday lunch was delicious! The staff are all very friendly, welcoming and very efficient. It's clear that customer service is important to this business and that the staff are happy in their work. The food was really good, very tasty home made soup for starter and then full roast beef dinner - everything was spot on. The added touch of being offered seconds of roast potatoes and yorkie puds was the icing on the cake. I'd definitely recommend a visit!

Love this place, seasonal menu, good beer, great staff

No parking - all removed by the council

Lovely place for lunch. Comfortable, friendly and efficient staff. Varied lunchtime menu. The food was excellent and good range of drinks available.

Great food. Big pub and nice beer. Simple

Lovely place to eat & drink. 2nd time we have stayed in Leamington and 2nd time we have eaten here. Shame it's so far away.

What a gem! Fabulous lively atmosphere in this bustling, warm, and well lit venue. Great welcome, super attentive landlord and staff with live music. For my first visit to any hostelry in the town, this was great. Excellent tapas and extensive collection of non alcoholic beers. Recommend all day long!

Great food and service. Specials were great and lots of options. Sea bream risotto was excellent!

Spanish night for my birthday was brilliant. Food was great. Staff were fantastic. The live music for a great atmosphere. Would recommend and return!

Absolute Gem in Leam We had a large table booking on a Spanish themed night and both the venue and the food didn’t disappoint! The staff felt like one big family , dancing, smiling and enjoying the Spanish vibes whilst serving, exceptional food. The drinks were flowing and the room was filled with the vibe of the live band.. Mambo Jambo .. The well managed, welcoming venue, the staff at the Star and Garter, the band and good friends made a memorable night … Defo recommend 🙌

Visited on a Friday night in a group of 10. Fantastic welcome and quickly seated with drinks. The menu is great with loads of options so it was hard to choose. Onion bhaji scotch egg was popular and very good. Delicious food and a very good atmosphere but most of all the service and staff are brilliant. Always checking we had everything we needed and topping up drinks orders.

Great atmosphere and good beers

Excellent food and attention from the staff - recommend for extensive menu and wonderful service . Worth booking as it’s clearly popular

Fabulous high quality meal at a great price! (Currently 2 mains for £25)

Ate here on a Thursday night with my wife and two friends. Starters, mains, plus £100 of wine plus extras drinks. Service compared to a few years ago was pretty lax. £50 bottles of wine opened and plonked on table; friendly service but felt like they had better things to do than make us feel special; food-wise, langoustines main looked great but everyone was really hungry still as it was a really small dish. Steak was well cooked and tasted great. Overall, the meal wasn’t cheap and felt like it had moved to pub service with only ok food. Shame really.

We’ve eaten here twice and both times did not disappoint! Lunch on a Saturday with a few drinks was delicious and made us want to try their Sunday roasts. Sunday roasts are a bit thing for our family & we’ve struggled to find somewhere that we all love. However, Star and Garter have succeeded in this! Potatoes were crispy, meat was tender, veggies were delicious and the Yorkshire pudding was spectacular. We all finished off with a pudding (not something that we would usually do!) and these were all lovely too. Most definitely will be back, especially for Sunday lunch!

Love the Star and all that it stands for....

Small works doo. Beer was lovely and food was spot on. Booked it Christmas doo there because we enjoyed it so much. Fish pie was lovely

Food was no where near the standard we expected after reading up on most recent reviews prior to our visit, admittedly it was after 3pm when we rocked up and maybe the cuts of beef and pork that we we served up were the dregs especially the pork which my partner had and was very fatty. The cabbage was well undercooked along with the root vegetables which were soggy and not roasted. We're not ones to complain as a rule but when you're paying out what we were charged then you do tend to walk away very dissatisfied. Staff were lovely though but I think the chef needs to up his game when it comes to Sunday roasts.

Whilst visiting Leamington we were searching for a dog friendly pub/restaurant. The Star & Garter was recommended. WOW! What a find! The food was superb..Lemon Sole and Onglet steak were both delicious. Well cooked & beautifully presented…we couldn’t fault it. Cheese board was first rate. Service & attention to detail was excellent. Highly recommended. We will definitely be back!

Dreadful food, I had a cheese burger, it was so overcooked it was like eating a piece of carpet, owner gracefully knocked off the price of one beer from the menu, no thanks, my advice, walk past this place

Had Sunday lunch for a large family gathering and we were looked after very well indeed. Food was plentiful and the traditional Sunday roasts a popular choice were very good. Service was attentive and coped very well the numbers and variety of orders. Separate room with balcony worked really well.

I had a drama this morning, being temporarily separated from my dog. Erin joined the dots and found a way to reunite us while another team member looked after me with a complementary cup of tea. So kind and richly appreciated.🙏🙏

Exceptional service and high quality food with a good ale selection too

Slightly overpriced on everything, but good service and friendly staff

The perfect family lunch from top to bottom. Thank you S&G

Bar Manager was charming and exceptionally helpful.

Great atmosphere, good food & brilliant service.

Sunday lunch only warm and although plenty not that tasty. Might have give it another try but as the staff weren’t very accommodating won’t bother!

Food was on the dear side and small portions, but good quality. Leamington is a great night out.

Visited for Sunday lunch for fathers day and I couldn't fault any of it. The hugely attentive service on arrival, the quality of the food and the reasonable price and super dig friendly. Loved it!!

A great pub with good atmosphere that also does good food. There is a varied menu which caters for all tastes and requirements. The staff are very friendly, helpful and accommodating which makes the service very good. I had the prawns on sour dough for starters which were delicious. We also had a baked Camembert which was nice but rather small to share. We all had the roast beef and the choice of how we wanted it cooked was excellent, 3 of us had pink and one well done and it was delicious. The cauliflower cheese is a great accompaniment. I have to say bringing extra roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings was a nice touch. It was very busy which did mean the service was a little slow. If you are in the area it is well worth a visit

I was impressed by the service team. They all looked not only professional and caring, but contagiously happy and glad.

Had a really lovely meal and amazing service from Katie, thank you!

A great venue to meet with friends and family. Decent food and a wide range of appropriate drinks.

Excellent menu , wonderful staff, great experience

Not as good as usual meat tough

The food is average, but service is very good. I don’t like dogs around when I’m eating. So I won’t be returning.

£4.30 for draught Coke!! In this economy! Lovely atmosphere though

Absolutely beautiful food well worth a visit top class food thanks

The reviews were good however nothing special for the place.

Great hosts, excellent food, good atmosphere; what more could you want? Recommend the steak and the sticky toffee pudding

Lovely pub with lovely staff (who were very knowledgeable regarding the menu choices). Had steak and one of the specials (fish pie). Both delicious and leaving no room for dessert! Will definitely be returning!

Absolutely fantastic Sunday lunch! Wow 🤩. Roast beef was cooked (pink) to perfection and served with all the trimmings. They even came round the table to see if anyone wanted extra roasties or yorkshires. What a lovely touch and one I’ve never experienced. Cauliflower cheese was yummy too. Waiting staff were lovely and couldn’t do enough for us. Can’t wait to go back!

We had a fantastic meal today. There were 6 of us and we all had a great time and great food. The food was excellent but the service was a cut above. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. With a special shout out to the maitre ‘d who went out of his way to make us feel welcome and special

I brought my Great Niece here for her 16th Birthday treat as she loves a good Sunday Roast. I asked for extra time at the table as she likes to eat slowly and a lot of places only allow you 1 hour to eat. We both really enjoyed our food. The staff were very friendly and helpful. My Great Niece "Absolutely loved that restaurant" according to her mum! 5 Star rating from both of us on this occasion, I am sure we will be back again soon!

The food is good quality slightly high priced .the staff are excellent

Fab local pub. Great staff, lovely atmosphere and cocktails!

Came for Mother’s Day Sunday lunch. Staff were very welcoming and the food was really good. Staff also checked to see if we needed anything during our meal and were very helpful. Will definitely be coming back

Food was amazing, best service we have had in a restaurant in ages, was served by big bloke with a beard. Reasonable prices and would definitely recommend

We were delighted to see that Tony was helping run this long established venue in Leamington. His smile and sparkle made the service 110%. Good food, great service nice beer. What more could you want for a pub meal.

Best Sunday roast around. Trio of meats outstanding

Just popped in as an afternoon meal and we could not of come back any more satisfied than we are!! Service was next to none a super friendly Gent dressed in a bright blue shirt could not of done more for us and what an upseller he is lol my partner originally ordered the rump cap at 22 pound but the chef had Wagu in and was going on the evening specials, he was offered to up grade and the wagu came in at 35 pound but OMG worth every penny melted in the mouth and cooked to perfection. I had the Chicken schnitzel with garlic butter and it was so tasty. 10/10 all round. Thank you for a great experience.

Great staff, very friendly and welcoming. Food is of excellent quality and the regulars are welcoming and the place has a very friendly atmosphere. The Sunday lunch is hard to beat.

Amazing food and very lovely service. Thank you for this fantastic experience. We’ll be returning!

Staff is amazing (I thought service will be included :). Food is great. Very pleasant experience. Would recommend and come back. All the best to the team.

very nice experience. top service. gastro food did not disappoint. would come back any time. thank you.

Found this place whilst visiting Leamington spa. Lovely little pub. Lovely atmosphere and staff extremely friendly. Great place to have a quiet drink.

My daughter had baby shower so had the room upstairs and buffet definitely recommend it thanks

Fantastic service, location and facilities for the private dinning room - Staff were fantastic!

A pub with traditional food but in a nicer setting

This pub has really nice food - its my second time eating here and I’ve been impressed both times.

Visited in December for work xmas do. Our booked table was delayed by around 30 mins (not their fault, the party before ran well over time), but we were well compensated with some free booze. Food and service was fabulous and great value for money. The Team did a great job of looking after 30+ of use whilst the main pub downstairs was HEAVING BRAVO Star and Garter team. You did not disappoint 👏 🙌 👌

Quiet for a Saturday night. Good selection of beers.

Excellent SundaybLunch, great food, selection of drinks and very attentive staff. Extra Yorkshire and roast potatoes offerd too👌

Been here many times. Service and food very good. A real treat. Thank you Star&Garter.

Food was fantastic but a little expensive. But why not spoil your self every now and then. Great service from a great team... well done all

Excellent pub Sunday lunches are exceptional value and v popular You need to book a table well in advance for that

I went there on Christmas Eve. Good experience.

This place is a fraud. A table today with at least 5 and at times 8 folk were largely ignored unless we hollered for attention or went to the bar to try to get noticed. Food was good but not 20 quid good. The food though is a sideshow to a venue that has zero interaction with its customers. Really disappointing.

Enjoy the food but think it’s expensive and very noisy but love the atmosphere and staff very pleasant and helpful enjoy going to your restaurant .

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Sunday Roasts. It was very busy but the main meals came out very quickly. Staff very friendly.

Had a lovely meal here,service was great and the staff were lovely.was a very enjoyable evening with a relaxing atmosphere.

Excellent food coupled with excellent service. I'd like to highlight our server Ellie whom was very polite and cheerful. The rum baba and banana collada definitely being my favourite. Would 100% recommend.

We had our staff Christmas party at the Star & Garter and everyone commented on how amazing the food and staff were! The atmosphere was fantastic and really got everyone in the festive spirit! Special thanks to Sian who made sure we always had a full glass!

Lovely Sunday lunch been here a few times and the staff are all so lovely and friendly which makes for excellent service!!

Great pub, one of my favourites in leamington! Food, drink and team all top tier

Enjoyed a pint before starting a pub crawl with a group.

Very pleasant experience and would recommend will return

Food was excellent, could of done with a bit more steak and chips but the meal was amazing.

The staff was very nice and service was fast. I had the vegetarian special of harrisa glazed pumkin, Moroccan spiced chickpeas and winter greens.

We attended this Sunday to celebrate Thanksgiving, which we would ordinarily do at our mum’s house in London. However this year we couldn’t owing to the terminal cancer diagnosis of my sister. I approached the Star and Garter at my sister’s behest ( they serve the best roasts) with a very large booking that we very possibly would have to cancel last minute and they took this in their stride, buying our puddings for us and a bottle of bubbly to enjoy on them. At an awful time, their kindness, flexibility and generosity was so keenly felt by our family and the food and service and staff were just incredibl. I would like too to mention Elle and Sian (hope I’ve spelled the names correctly), who stood out and welcomed this complicated booking with so much warmth and kindness, that will never be forgotten. Thank you for making a wonderful afternoon full of wonderful food and joy.

After a big gap I went here again last Friday for dinner with friends. The pub was really busy but the dining room was nice and quiet (at 5pm) and started to fill up later. Before I get to the food, the staff were super friendly, helpful and patient while we were there, and didn't forget about us even when they started getting busy. I had the bavette steak, cooked perfectly and super tasty with the French fries and butter. Only improvement could have been a bigger cut as the four slices didn't last long

Lovely place to eat and drink mid week

Excellent Sunday lunch! Really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere.

Atmospheric place. Polite and friendly staff, they explained everything about the dishes and ingredients. The food was great, especially liked the desserts. Thanks for the cozy dinner.

Has nice and large private rooms, great atmosphere

The Sunday Roast was delicious and very generous portions. When the staff check back on you, they offer you more yorkies and roast potatoes! The service was great! We were greeted immune by Eve, and she served us, got us drinks asap. Also, they're dog friendly. Highly recommend it for an amazing and chill Sunday.
