Olive Branch - Carte

The food was excellent, the service was friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere was great.

A beautiful little country pub serving some very tasty a la carte food. The selection of ales is poor though.

Great food, extensive wine drinks list, warm welcome, warm room!, and exceptional service even when put to the test on a very popular Sunday. Voir le carte

I had a wonderful afternoon at the Olive Branch. We chose to sit outside and enjoyed excellent service and a wonderful menu. I ordered tapas while my friend opted for the Lunch for Less option. Both dishes were excellent.

We had a wonderful lunch at the inn, with welcoming, friendly, and caring staff. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. Great drinks menu including hot drinks which tend to be neglected. It’s nice to see that lots of local suppliers are involved and the quality shows.

We had a very enjoyable family meal to celebrate my Mum's birthday. We had booked a table for 8 outside hoping for sunshine, but the restaurant called on the day to offer an indoor option due to the grey weather. The food was delicious, starting with fresh baked bread and continuing with tasty starters and mains. The birthday cake we prebooked was also very enjoyable and generously sized. The service was warm, friendly, and attentive, with a selection of great local drinks available. The restaurant is located in a cute village where you can take a short walk, and Rutland Water, Oakham, and Stamford are not far away for a longer walk. Voir le carte

We stopped off for lunch on our way to London. Although close to the A1, The Olive Branch is a delightful and welcoming local pub, with a great selection of drinks (including good nonalcoholic options), which serves excellent locally sourced food. Beef and guinea fowl were succulent, with unctuous sauces, and had interesting condiments to add zing. Chips were exemplary golden and crisp exteriors with soft fluffy centres. Pasta was al dente, in a delicious sauce with excellent and unusual mushrooms. Good kale and cabbage. The coffee is great too perfect to re energise for the journey ahead. Attentive but not intrusive service. Attractive, rustic decor, with old chairs and benches softened by...

Our first time for a birthday dinner at The Olive Branch as a gift from the children. Beautiful location and building with great service from all the staff who served us. Unfortunately our experience of the food was disappointing despite really good reviews from family and friends who have eaten here. Our starters were lovely, my wife had the chicken liver parfait and I had the ham hock raviolo. We both chose the slow cooked beef rib for mains but it had an excessive amount of inedible fat on the meat, my wife's portion was about 50% fat which obviously she did not eat and we explained our disappointment to the waitress. Neither of us are experts on meat cuts but we thought that the excess f...

Stopped by The Olive Branch on a Sunday lunchtime after being in Stamford for the weekend. I used to live in the area and remembered how nice it was and wondered if it had changed. It did not disappoint. The small car park was full but parking round the corner in the idyllic village of Clipsham isn 't a drama. The pub itself is stunning, with seating inside and out. There was a good selection of ales wines and spirits behind the bar and even had its own shop where you can purchase some of the produce sold or used in the pub. I really did not expect to get a table on a busy Sunday however the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming and despite being very busy with a lot of tables visibly... Voir le carte
