The Pavilion in Stroud

What a country we live in! The powers that be can force a thriving harmless business like this to close due to red tape!! A lovely place for pizza & much more especially al fresco on a nice day! Keep fighting & we hope to see you all return soon!

Landlady is sound and a few of the regulars are quite entertaining. Lovely view with great food and selection of ales, ciders and spirits. Good traditional pub, happy to call it my local.

UPDATE - Tuesday 03 Dec 24 After dicussing, by private emails, the events of last week, Team Henry asked me to give them another try. This I did today, and I was not disappointed this time around. The coffee was great, and the sausage roll was a beast of deliciousness!! Thank you Team Henry for making this experience as good as my first. Tuesday 26 Nov 24 Went to Henry's for the first time on Sat for a light lunch. So delighted with the service, food and atmosphere, that I returned for lunch today, Tuesday. Friendly greeting, and I ordered a black coffee and ham and cheese toastie on brown seeded bread. Now it all goes south!! Coffee arrived, and it was a murky brown colour, and taste made me think it was instant, not filtered. Only some granules on the saucer clued me in to it being allegedly filtered. After 15mins, people coming after me having received their food, I asked what was happening with my order. Apologies given, and I waited a further 10mins for the food to arrive - on white sourdough!! I mentioned my frustration to the young lady server who offered me a replacement or refund. I declined as I had already waited so long, and ate it. I recognise the place was busy with lunch service, but to forget an order, and not even update the customer, is bad service. Henry's is local to me, and the food I have ordered has been good, despite being on white bread instead of brown, but due to my experience today, I will be thinking long and hard about returning to this establishment.

A County Captain's Day, really well organised, everything.

I love Woody's! But my dog loves it even more.. he always gets a sausage :)
