Dirty Duck

Restaurant | Stratford-upon-Avon | England | Großbritannien

Traditionelle britische Pub-Gerichte

Das "Dirty Duck" in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, ist ein traditionsreiches Pub, das zur Greene King-Kette gehört und sich als ein beliebter Treffpunkt in dieser historischen Stadt etabliert hat. Mit seiner Nähe zum Royal Shakespeare Theatre ist es besonders bekannt als Anlaufstelle für Theaterbesucher und Schauspieler, was ihm eine besondere kulturelle Note verleiht. Ursprünglich als "Black Swan" bekannt, trägt es heute beide Namen – ein charmantes Detail, das seine lange Geschichte widerspiegelt. Das Pub kombiniert klassische britische Gastfreundschaft mit einer einladenden Atmosphäre und ist ideal für alle, die nach einem Stück Geschichte und gutem Essen suchen.

Historisches Pub in Stratford-upon-Avon

Die Speisekarte des Dirty Duck ist geprägt von traditionellen britischen Pub-Gerichten, die mit Sorgfalt zubereitet werden. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der "Steak & Ale Pie", ein herzhafter Kuchen mit zartem Rindfleisch, das in einer reichen Ale-Soße gegart wird, serviert mit butterigem Kartoffelpüree oder knusprigen Chips – ein echter Klassiker, der Wärme und Genuss verspricht. Auch der "Duck Hash" sticht heraus, ein Gericht mit langsam gegartem Entenconfit, knusprigen Würfelkartoffeln und einem Spiegelei, das mit einer fruchtigen Orange-Himbeer-Dressing verfeinert wird. Für leichtere Optionen gibt es die "Salt & Pepper Squid", knusprig gebratene Tintenfischstücke mit einer leicht scharfen koreanischen BBQ-Soße, die einen Hauch von Exotik ins Spiel bringt. Süße Versuchungen wie die "Pear Frangipane" mit Pistazien und frischer Sahne bieten einen eleganten Abschluss für die Mahlzeit.

Pretty decent place, only stayed for a drink or so but the atmosphere was really authentic and peaceful. I’d recommend it, I bet it’s bliss in summer, would love to go back and sample the food but just didn’t have time unfortunately.

Prime location, can get very busy at weekends. Decent food and a good bit of history inside. Would visit again!

Came here for Valentines day, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Couldn't fault the taste of the food, everything was delicious and cooked beautifully. Can't leave a 5 star as I did have a very bad stomach and became quite ill for the evening not too long after dinner and I have a feeling it was the crab starter! Such a shame as everything was lovely. I would still come again as it may have been a one off, I hope no one else had the same issue that evening.

good beer served cold in a warm pub, just off the water and not far from the theatre. they keep the dog bowls behind the pub, and the board games up of a shelf. comfy chairs and well worn tables. Worth a visit if you like looking at portraits in picture frames.

Called in at 12pm for a quick snack. Ordered a chicken and bacon sandwich on bloomer. Quick service, great chips but the sandwich was poor. Soggy white fat on the barely cooked bacon, dry bread and chicken and a small bit of lettuce and mayo.

We were recommended eating here by the guest house we were staying at and it did not disappoint! We didn’t book but arrived at around 4pm and it was getting busy and already booked up for the evening, but managed to get a meal ad-hoc. I ordered the pulled beef cottage pie and it was delicious! 😋 In fact true to a thespian pub full of actors memorabilia, there was an audible gasp when I ordered the last cottage pie, it did make me chuckle! 🤣😁

I was visiting Birmingham from Glasgow over the weekend and decided to take a day-trip to Stratford-upon-Avon. I wanted to check out this place as the name was the inspiration for the Mucky Mallard from the TV show Shakespeare and Hathway. I arrived for the pub opening at 12pm and the place was beautiful. A proper old-style pub with log-burner fires. Have to give a shoutout to the friendly barman (didn't get his name but he was young, really tall and had actor-level good looks!). It was a really nice welcome to SUA and he chatted away and asked me what brought me there from Scotland. Staff were all so nice. Sitting in the Actor's Bar surrounded by autographed photos of Shakespeare Actors next to the warm log-burner was a fantastic experience. There's something quite cool about knowing you're in the same place where Judi Dench and Ian McKellen have drunk. The location is also spectacular. Views across the canal and the park as well as the theatre. There are seats where you can enjoy but it was February and raining. Didn't get the chance to try the food as it was so busy (btw, book or arrive early as the place gets really crowded). But it's an excuse to come back. Honestly, a great bar with amazing staff and fantastic views. Can't recommend enough and can't wait to come back.

This was a lovely pub and the food was amazing, even though it was busy the service was good and even apologized for it being a bit slower than normal due to the sudden rush of orders.
