I saw online a decorated experienced chef come to stroud; and walk past looked intruiging so wanted to give it a try. I was a little worried wasn't going to pick up as when I pass in day don't see many people there. But on nights/early evening its in full swing and was small groups of people. I had the main meal (steak, chips, watercress) and the Cheesy bacon chips as a side. It was absolutely brilliant. Love food and trying new places. And definitely best steak I've ever had, top 3 food place in stroud (sorentoes and corner house other two, search those to see my reviews of them). Bacon cheesy chips were really tasty. The steak was perfectly seasoned, could tell propper salt and pepper was used as wasn't tiny specs was proper salt crystals. I personally wasn't a fan of the watercress salad dressing, but that's my personal preference. As a whole was delicious. Maybe should have gone for a different side as was quite chip heavy but wasn't any fault of staff obviously as the order was down to me. Very good service too. From receptionist, waitor, and chef as well. As was checked up on and given take away container in case didn't finish, but had it all as was very tasty. Definitely highly recommended to others and will go again when opportunity arises.

Stopped off at Strip in between pubs for a quick bite. The beef dripping fries drew us in, and we shared one of the wraps which was cooked exactly as we asked, but the smoked peppercorn sauce stole the show.

Stopped in Stroud looking for something to eat and happened upon the Five Valleys shopping centre - what a great place. Lots of choice but glad we chose Strip. The festive special was delicious - steak with brie and cranberry sauce - the fries were amazing. If that wasn't enough - they do doughnut strips!! Service was excellent and such friendly people. Great find and look forward to them opening in Yorkshire! 😊
