“ Visited twice in December and both times exceeded expectations and have now booked in February-great quality food at a great price-2 excellent courses 17 ”
“ Good quality restaurant, the food was really delicious. I enjoyed my starter and dessert very much. My main was nice, not bad, I had chicken so it's always hard to flavour chicken I think. Presentation of each dish was great. They give you bread at the start of the meal which is a nice touch. Service was good - they added some things to our bill that weren't ours by mistake and when we brought it up, they fixed it straight away. The price was quite high I thought but it was a very nice restaurant and maybe I'd feel different if I had a different main. Overall, I'd highly recommend coming here and would visit again if I was in the area. ”
“ Excellent food, well presented. We chose a festive menu, however, the atmosphere was lacking any festive feeling even though all the diners were having a good time and looked as though they were celebrating Christmas. Very attentive and understanding service. Will definitely return in the new year, hopefully with a warmer welcome. So far...best food in Bidford on Avon. Would like to see more Vegan options, that would enable me to bring the whole family at least 4 times a year !! ”
“ Highly recommend this place. The food is simply amazing, cooked to perfection. The staff are delightful and attentive. We will definitely return when back in the area. The riverside location adds to the atmosphere, with a gorgeous decked area on the first floor overlooking the river. ”
“ Found this wonderful restaurant on our first night away, and so glad we did, very friendlv waiting staff, sat outside whuch was lovely and the food was so good we could of been dinning in a Mitchlin stared restaurant. Thank you all for such a wonderful experience ”
“ Wonderful restaurant right on the bank of the Avon river. Small and cosy with super reliable food time and time again. Great for Sunday lunch, a mix of traditional and other modern dishes for startes and mains. Some great wines as well. Wonderful roast duck typically on the Sunday menu, and whilst a little pricey as a supplement, it is to die for. Great selection of specials make this great value restaurant ever interesting! UPDATE on new years day after a fab lunch on Christmas eve......pictures from New Years eve. Whatba perfect way to start the final festivities; a casylual country ramble to The Bridge Inn with my son for Christmas Eve lunch! Second in, we mused over the original yet familiar menu, side by side with an innovative Christmas special menu with a cheeky Peroni. I went for the seared scallops with crispy bacon served on a perfect complimenting crushed pea base... the scallops were perfectly cooked with a thin crispy Crust but succulent body and roe. My son had the perfect poached egg on a festive and rich black pudding potato cake. For mains, my son chose the satisfying steak burger, whilst I went for an old favourite, veal Holstein. The saltiness of the anchovies perfectly enhancing the egg and bed of freshly wilted spinach. I finished off with the traditional Christmas pudding, whilst my son opted for the ample assiette de fromage, with which we finished the velvety Cotes du Rhone. It's such a delight to visit the Bridge and I am looking forward to New Years day lunch for exactly the above reasons. Living in the surrounding areas to Bidford, we should be so appreciative of such a jewel in the culinary crown, without the need to hike of to Birmingham or Cheltenham along with the taxi fares and or drinks restrictions that that might incur. The Wetherspoons, Fullers and McDonald's of this world will always be there as long as punters have cash to spend, but like Purnells in Birmingham which has vapourised taking 38k of future customers money with them, we should all savor the delights of local excellent cooking such as this for as long as possible, and hopefully beyond the Bridges 20 year anniversary in 2025..... or risk being restricted to a baron culinary landscape in the future! Super, time after time and great value! ”
