The Oak Bar at Stratton House

A drink with friends

The Oak Bar

Our traditional Cotswold bar is the perfect place to enjoy a pre-dinner cocktail, a casual midweek lunch, or a warming cup of coffee in front of the log burner after a wet winter dog walk. Open to members of the public as well as hotel residents it provides a welcoming, friendly feel, full of traditional charm where dogs are very welcome too.

Drink

Our drinks menu includes all you would expect from a hotel bar, including a wide range of wine, beer, spirits and soft drinks. Or why not try one of our popular cocktails?

Whether it’s meeting for cocktails before heading out for a night in town, a quick pint after work, or somewhere to relax and enjoy an after dinner drink the Oak Bar offers a friendly, cosy and relaxed atmosphere.

Eat

Our lounge and bar menu offers a more casual dining option for those wanting to dine in the Bar at lunchtimes or in the evening.

Featuring a selection of British favourites, sandwiches and paninis. It’s popular with those who have their dogs with them as the Oak Bar is dog-friendly so you will often come across a furry friend or two in residence.

It can be busy, especially at weekends, so it is advisable to book a table if you specifically want to eat in the bar.

" Lovely hotel with very friendly staff. Breakfasts are excellent. 20-30 minute walk into Cirencester.

" Thank you Stratton House Hotel for an amazing grill night . A group of us decided to go and we were very impressed. The seabass and steaks were excellent. Service was really good and the deserts with the cheese selection finished off the evening. All of us would highly recommend a visit.

" I decided to try SHH’s Grill Night with friends recently and was not disappointed! The chateaubriand was cooked to perfection at the chef’s recommendation. The menu catered for the various tastes including both vegetarian and pescatarian choices. The hardest thing was to choose from the amazing cheese menu featuring local and regional cheeses! The staff were friendly and attentive. A great night was had by all. Looking forward to the next opportunity to come again.

" I had a great evening recently at the Stratton House Hotel with a large group of friends. We had heard about their Thursday Steak Night and thought it looked perfect. We were able to book a table and had a fantastic night. The food was delicious and the wine choice was also exellent. The staff were also great. Nothing was too much bother and they really helped contribute to the evening being a great success. We’ll definitely be back and we all really enjoyed the evening. Thank you.

" We recently had dinner at Stratton House Hotel on their Thursday Grill Night and cannot recommend it enough. The menu had a great choice for all – so much more than a typical steak night! The food was fantastic, cooked to perfection and the service was excellent with friendly and knowledgeable staff. We will definitely be going back.
