We visited here for lunch on a bank holiday. Tables inside were fully booked, but as it was a lovely day we were pleased to sit at a table in the garden. Within ten minutes of opening, all the garden tables were taken. We chose the set lunch at £19.50 for three courses. This was excellent value, but there was... More

There is absolutely nothing to dislike about The Olive Branch and everything to praise. The food is superb in every way. We ate there on both nights of our stay at Beech House, across the road, and we couldn't have been happier. The staff are all wonderful, extremely efficient and very friendly. I have no hesitation in recommending it very... More

We decided to visit on the spur of the moment for some lunch. I'm not sure if they still have the Michelin star but the food and service were of excellent quality. We had starters,main courses and four drinks and the bill was around £80. The ambience is very relaxed the waitresses were not over attentive. 10 out of 10.

I do not go there often now because there are so many excellent places to eat in Stamford itself, where I live. I went twice to the Olive Branch and had a salad, which was the only non meat option. It was extremely well done. The bread that was served was also good and my companions, who had other options,... More

We had a lovely meal here on Saturday. Pigeon breast starter and pork chop main were very good. The real ale was also of a high standard. The staff were helpful and friendly. The only slight complaint would be the cost of a bottle of wine. The did all seem a bit over priced. We will go back and investigate... More

Chose the Olive Branch as a stop off on a long journey North. It was a beautiful day and we sat in the pretty garden waiting for the doors to open. We were seated in the bar area as all the restaurant tables were fully booked. Grest atmosphere with friendly and efficient staff. Lovely homemade bread served in loaf form... More

This really is an excellent pub. Nice pub type atmosphere but with restaurant quality food. They have their own real ale , Olive Oil, and great selection of wines. Log fires.

Visited this 'pub' on the 3rd April for lunch with two other people. We felt the place had quite a nice feel to it, and our table was ready as booked. (Interesting to note that at sometime recently, a ridge tile on the roof has been replaced with one of a totally different colour..what a shame !) However, to return... More

We picked the Olive Branch because of the number of positive reviews and were not disappointed. We booked our table for a Sunday lunch and were warmly greeted from the minute we walked through the door. The bar had an excellent range of wines, spirits and beers. It was the best selection of all the places we have visited over... More
