Stunning food throughout the meal , not one course was a let down . The Jerusalem artichoke arranchini was a perfect way to start the meal , it was absolutely delicious and left you wanting more . I had the crispy Creedy duck as a starter which was fantastic I throughly enjoyed it followed by the pumpkin gnocchi which was also wonderful. Each portion was just the right size and the chocolate fondant finished the meal off perfectly. I would also highly recommend trying the autumn fizz if you get the chance. Service was attentive and friendly , an all round perfect evening. Cant wait to return to try a new menu soon .

Absolutely magnificent Excellent service from the lovely waitresses serving superb dishes to our table. We were over joyed with the quality of everything and at a sensible price. This is certainly a little hidden jem of a place thank you so much. My own personal thing was the acoustics of the eating area were loud for me as I suffer from a head injury and like it a bit quieter but in no way would this deter me from returning that's how impressed I was by everything.

Loved our supper at Blockley Cafe, delicious original menu presented with care. Service was warm and welcoming. The fish was cooked to perfection . The desert was elegant and subtle. Fantastic value . A must is to look at the photo record of the village - a truly interesting historical perspective on the village.

We have dined here before on a number of occasions and really loved it. However, this time there was a large and noisy party downstairs that detracted from the usual ambience. The meal was also rushed with little time, if any, between courses. We had to ask for a delay before puddings. Although the food was very good again, we felt the staff were under pressure and it was not a relaxing experience.

Dear Ian Thank you for leaving your review. We are disappointed that you didn't enjoy a relaxing dinner and apologise for how this affected your evening. Your feedback has been shared with the team and we are grateful to you for raising our awareness of your experience. I do hope that you shared your feelings with the front of house staff so that they could have alerted the 'noisy' table downstairs. We have noted your comments and look forward to welcoming you again. Kind regards Nicky
