Intimate Dining

Our Favourites

Nepalese Chef – less than a five minute stroll from the hotel
Sebz, Topoly’s, Cafe Rene, Greek on the Docks,
Blue Thai Kitchen and Portivo Lounge are also easy walking distance.

Large Groups

Sebz (upstairs), Nepalese Chef (walking) and the White Horse (taxi), can take large groups comfortably.

Great Settings

The White Horse is on the banks of the Severn as is The Wharf House, great in the summer for eating
outside. Similarly, Greek on the Docks is set overlooking the
Docks.

Cafe Rene, The Fountain Inn and Raikes House are steeped in
history and their buildings have lots of character.

Dietary Requirements

Most restaurants cater, in some way nowadays for special dietary requirements, especially all the chains at The Quays. Of particular note though is Portivo Lounge, they have a dedicated separate menu for Vegetarian/Vegan and Gluten free food.
