The Yew Tree Restaurant

Dining should always be a special occasion

At The Yew Tree our kitchen team works tirelessly to offer a combination of delicious classic English and Continental dishes, incorporating locally grown produce and locally sourced meats wherever possible, with the emphasis on seasonality and flavour.

We take pride in offering food of a consistently high quality, with warm and friendly service for all.

Make the most of your evening with an aperitif or a glass of fizz in our comfortable lounge. The bar is open all day and we welcome residents and non-residents alike. The restaurant is very popular, so a reservation is recommended.

Our story

Why "The Yew Tree"?

Our restaurant takes its name from the scenic door of St Edward's Church in Stow. Known for its picturesque arched wooden doorway bound by a pair of ancient yew trees, it's said to have inspired J.R.R. Tolkien's 'Doors of Durin'.

Our kitchen team prides itself on making as much as possible in house, from the bread served at dinner to the jam at breakfast. We use local produce from within 30 miles wherever possible, with the emphasis on seasonality and flavour, from responsible, quality suppliers.
