Despite the performance being cancelled, it was great to be able to eat in the restaurant. The staff were lovely, very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious, really tasty and served quickly and was hot. We will definitely be back.

A great way to combine a show and meal without the worry of being late for the start of the show a great pre theatre menu all served in very good

We weren't an easy party -- 15 people of various ages, spread across 2 tables -- but our waitress Abigail was a miracle of unobtrusive, empathetic competence throughout. We were dead on time for the show without even needing to worry about it, after an excellent and convivial meal (the wines and the set menu were both perfect). Abigail's performance was at least as good as any on display on the stage.Wheelchair accessibility: The Rooftop really looks after wheelchair users.

My food allergies/intolerances were taken into account and everything was great. The meal was brilliant- fresh and cooked really well. Absolutely delicious. Staff were very friendly and extremely attentive - very helpful. The restaurant is our treat and will continue to be so. Highly recommended.Dietary restrictions: Extremely accommodating and helpful. It wasn't an issue at all to them.

In Stratford for a short break. Enjoyed a lovely pre theatre meal in the Rooftop Restaurant. Really delicious (all 3 courses!), and the staff were all so friendly and helpful. Then onto the Swan Theatre for a great evening of entertainment. A night to remember all round, thank you.

This is by far the best place to eat in Stratford in my opinion.The food is amazing, a real foodies delight.The service from the top down is superb. From Ben the manager to Dylan to Esme who was our waitress, it was so good compared to other places in Stratford. If you haven't tried it, you should it's well worth the visit and a credit to the theatre.Only reason we didn't post pictures of the food was my guests tucked the minute it arrived.

Due to intolerances and allergies I have a diet which often proves impossible for many restaurants, but not the Rooftop. As a regular diner they have these listed but always double check even when we have pre-ordered. By pre-ordering it gives the chef time to look at our request and advise if the choices are possible, or possible with adaption. In some cases where perhaps a large piece of meat is prepared with certain additions for taste it would not be possible to cater for me and I fully accept that.The staff are wonderfully friendly and always go the extra mile to look after their clients, even when they don't always seem to be that nice to the staff. They are extremely professional and with regular menu changes going back is not boring.In the summer you can't have a better location than the rooftop and even in the dark of winter you can sit and guess where the car headlights are going - and why?Knowing the show you are going to ensures the staff will advise you of the latest possible time you should consider booking if you want two courses and the earlier time for three courses. The restaurant knows you are going to a show and everything is geared towards this, but that is not a certainty at an off site restaurant.More people are discovering the Rooftop and coming just to dine which is really nice to see and hopefully a sign that we are, as a nation, returning to pre-covid attitudes.So if you fancy a meal out, have dietary limitations of necessity or choice, give the Rooftop a call. It's amazing what they can do for you.

It was one of the best meals out we've had recently. They were considerate of my garlic intolerance and adapted a dish for me.

A superb meal in a comfortable location, with friendly and attentive staff, before a fantastic production! What more could you ask for? Thank you RSC!

We booked to see a Saturday matinee performance at the RSC and decoded to go to the Rooftop Restaurant for the convenience of being in the building. This turned out to be a great choice! We had the 3 course pre-matinee lunch which was not only great tasting but also felt like pretty good value. Although we had worried we would not have time for all 3 courses in the 90 minutes available we needn't have worried. They are obviously set up for this type of meal and our server (Dan) was excellent - he was super quick, friendly and kept us relaxed that everything would work timing wise. The food was light and well seasoned, just what is required for a pre-theatre experience. We were sat overlooking the park to the front of the theatre and had great views. The pictures on the website made it look a little like a cafe but the setting itself is lovely, light and airy but somehow also quite intimate.

To be honest, I was expecting overpriced ordinary food because of the situation as part of the RSC but was pleasantly surprised with an excellent meal, promptly served in wonderful surroundings. Would definitely come back before a performance.

Everything about our meal was great. Food and service excellent, very friendly staff, plus a fantastic view. The only let down of the evening was the terrible production of Macbeth we saw afterwards!
