The Three Mariners, Oare

About the fifth time I have eaten here and have always had high praise. Not this time. We had a Sunday lunch and it was worse than a school dinner. Extremely poorly cooked and presented with watery gravy and roast potatoes that had been finished off in the deep fat friar. What a let down after high expectations. I can only assume it is under new management after the last time I ate here (about three months ago). Needless to say I will not return.

The Dirty Duck, Stratford Upon Avon

Very good riverside setting and a really nice pub. Friendly and attentive staff and beer in good nick. We visited on the way to the theatre and again afterwards expecting to find it packed to the rafters but it wasn't. I expect this is due to it being the second closest pub to the theatre so if you are not local you would perhaps not see it. Worth knowing for theatregoers.
