Good restaurants dot the region, thanks to a steady flow of fine chefs seeking to cater to wealthy locals and waves of demanding visitors. The country's food revolution is in full evidence here. Restaurants have never had a problem with a fresh food supply: excellent regional produce, salmon from the rivers Severn and Wye, local lamb and pork, venison from the Forest of Dean, and pheasant, partridge, quail, and grouse in season. Also look for Gloucestershire Old Spot pork, bacon (try a delicious Old Spot bacon sandwich), and sausage on area menus.

A ten-minute drive from Stow-on-the-Wold, this popular gastro-pub is as cozy and comforting as the name would suggest. The food here is exceptional, and the products so local that the staff can usually point to the farm the meat was sourced from, contributing to a generous prix-fixe menu, or, for those who brought their appetites, a superb tasting menu. Within the restaurant, a large bay window and terrace offer up views of the valley below, and attention to detail gives the pub some humorous touches such as the saddle-seated stools. If you decide that you are just too comfortable to move, there are four rooms to extend your stay in.

The Bath outpost of the growing Pig empire is a funky but chic "restaurant with rooms" in a converted country house in the Mendip Hills. It's all about the local and seasonal here (everything comes from within a 25-mile radius): kale, arugula, and other leaves and veggies are sourced from the Pig’s kitchen garden; apples, pears, and apricots come from its orchard; and pork, chicken, quail, and venison are provided by animals raised on the property. Salmon, pancetta, and bacon are smoked on-site. The results are exceptionally fresh and flavorsome dishes like loin of home-reared venison or “Kentucky-fried” wild rabbit. Dining alfresco in summer, when the wood-fired oven gets going, is a delight. The 29 comfortable and reasonably priced rooms are decorated with an elegant simplicity and have glorious views. It's located about 8 miles from Bath, off the A368.

Just five minutes from the Holburne Museum, this former rowing club house serves quality food in a picturesque setting. The global menu ranges from tandoori marinated salmon to tagliatelle. On warm summer nights, enjoy sitting on the veranda by candlelight (in winter, you can get tucked up with a throw) and enjoy food cooked to perfection. If you come during the day, you can also work up an appetite by taking out a skiff or canoe from the next-door boat station.

Housed in the former ballroom of Queen's Hotel, this offshoot of renowned chef Raymond Blanc's Manoir aux Quat' Saisons in Great Milton offers French provincial cooking in contemporary surroundings that harmonize well with the expansive Regency windows.

The enticing prix-fixe menu attracts diners to this award-winning French restaurant, which is renowned for its signature dishes from sea bass to duck breast. The Sunday roast is very popular but should be booked ahead. Chez Dominique is also a great place to stop off for afternoon tea or coffee after a walk by nearby Pulteney Weir.

Close to St. James Church, this traditional tavern has low beams, a flagstone floor, and a small courtyard. The long menu includes daily specials, local ales, and enticing dishes like confit duck and deep-fried fish-and-chips. Ciabatta sandwiches served at lunchtime are easy on the wallet. The service is swift and ideal for those in a rush. There are also six rooms where you can stay.

With views of the church of St. Mary's, this historic pub dating from 1554 offers a reassuringly traditional and charming milieu for food and refreshment. Light meals are available at lunchtime, teas in the afternoon, and for the evening meal you might start with deep-fried calamari and whitebait with caper sauce, then try the rump of lamb with minted mashed potato for your main course. The spotted dick (sponge with dried fruits) and custard makes a classic old-school end to the meal. The inn's grounds hold what is claimed to be the world's oldest bowling green. There are 11 well-furnished bedrooms upstairs.

Located between Broadway and Moreton-in-Marsh, this laid-back Cotswold pub has its dishes of the day (all made with local seasonal ingredients) written on the chalkboard inside. Options might include Dexter sirloin steak with watercress, shallot, and horseradish butter or a beetroot-and-thyme risotto. There's a pleasant garden for summer days and rooms should you wish to stay the night.

At this beamed and buzzing little café, locals drop in to discuss horses and dogs over a glass of wine, families gather around the big round table for lunch, and tired shoppers sink into armchairs for a reviving coffee. The Italian-inspired menu is filled with light dishes like antipasti, bruschetta, soups, baked potatoes, and salads. An English baker makes the cake specials on-site daily. There's also a terrace for warm days; the café stays open for dinner Thursday through Saturday.

Tucked away in a little courtyard, Jesse's is an intimate yet roomy bistro where you can treat yourself to a chilled sherry, local Gatcombe lamb, or fish straight up from Cornwall. The charcoal is glowing in the oven as you sit at your mosaic-topped table and watch the chefs at work. Be sure to check out the excellent choices on the British cheese board. It's advisable to book a table in advance.

There's energy and buzz at this plate-glass-and-chrome eatery, situated right by the Cornhall, which serves breakfasts, coffees, lunches, and afternoon teas with a smile. Choose from coffee and pastry, afternoon tea with cakes, or a soup and focaccia lunch. You can also pick something up from the delicatessen for a picnic.

Step away from the center of town to sample the ingenious cuisine that Michelin-trained chef Gordon Jones conjures up in his open kitchen. There is no set menu, but each course is carefully explained before it's served; there might be smoked eel with maple syrup and purple potatoes, a crisp haggis, roasted turbot with giant raisins and caper dressing, and blackberry sorbet with marinated cucumber. You can also choose a wine flight to accompany the tasting menus. The location is unprepossessing and the decor plain, enlivened by a few antlers and phials of oil, but the service is friendly and unstuffy; if you want to talk with the chef about your food, he will willingly do so. Book well in advance; lunch is easier to reserve than dinner.

The 18th-century Pump Room, with views over the Roman baths, serves morning coffee, lunches, and afternoon tea, to music by a pianist or string trio who play every day. The stately setting is the selling point rather than the food, but do sample the West Country cheese board and the housemade cakes and pastries. Light or full lunches are on offer, and the place is usually open for dinners in February, July, August, and during the major festivals (reservations are essential). Be prepared to wait in line for a table during the day.

Lured by the fresh ingredients and cool, unfussy surroundings, diners come here to enjoy the freshest of Cornish fish, Salcombe Bay crab, and Forest of Dean ham accompanied by unusual but delicious vegetables like borage, wild garlic, and sea cabbage. The accent is on fish, but you will also find hay-baked Cotswold lamb, vegetarian dishes, and plenty of local cheeses. Service is friendly and knowledgeable.

A convivial stopping-off spot for lunch or dinner, this pub has a courtyard out back that's a quiet retreat on a summer day. Besides standard pub grub like sandwiches, baguettes, and sausage and mash, there are daily specials such as steak-and-kidney pie, suet pudding, and a burger of the week. Expect to rub shoulders with the locals and their families as well as passing tourists. Opposite on the green are some working stocks that you can try out.

Plain wooden tables and understated decor are the setting for the wholesome British dishes served in this traditional restaurant beautifully sited on the banks of the Windrush with a large outdoor area. Sip a cocktail on the riverside terrace while you wait for your order. Desserts include vanilla panna cotta and sticky toffee pudding.

With a courtyard at the back and a patio at the front, this chic "restaurant with rooms" is perfect for a light lunch at midday or a full meal in the evening. Menus concentrate on Modern British dishes and change seasonally, with such temptations as Bibury trout or local lamb often available. The restaurant, in a former furniture factory belonging to local designer George Russell, is modern, airy, and stylish. The less expensive fixed-price menu is just as tempting, and there's also an attached fish-and-chips shop. You can spend the night in the very sleek, boutique-style rooms upstairs.

Serving old-fashioned Italian country fare along with a dash of dolce vita, this delightful restaurant has a cozy, intimate atmosphere. The welcoming staff gladly serves you housemade pastas like grandma used to make, quantities of seafood casserole, handsome steaks, and pork in sage and white wine sauce, for instance. Leave room for the light and fluffy tiramisu. On sunny days sit outside on the pavement and enjoy this small corner of Cotswold Italy.
