Places to eat
Worcestershire and the Cotswolds is the garden of Britain, so you can always expect great ingredients when you eat out at local pubs and restaurants.
And not much beats arriving at a great Cotswold pub on a summer's evening behind the wheel of a classic sports car like Great Escape's Jaguar XJS and Jaguar E Type.
The links below will point you in the direction of good restaurants, pubs and cafes in Worcestershire, Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds. We hand-edit the listings based on our experience and customer recommendation.
