Guide to lock down takeaways to Tysoe, Warwickshire

There’s a culinary silver lining for Tysoe during this lock down – the ability to have a takeaway actually delivered! This is the first time in my life (except the 3 at university) where I have enjoyed such a privilege.  

We’re usually out reviewing restaurants as part of my blog, The Weekend Tourist, but since the new measures, we’ve now tried three of our local eateries offering takeout. 

If there are any I have missed – just leave me a comment below.

I’ll be regularly updating this post with new pubs, restaurants, eateries that I come across offering takeout – whether that’s collection or delivery.

Happy Herefords, Tysoe

You can’t get more local than these gals, Kate & Monica, moved into Tysoe at the beginning on May and have already been feeding the village from their Farm Pop Up with burger nights, steak night and Sunday morning breakfast club. Thoroughly recommend them! They guys, first-generation female farmers, look after their own herd of Herefords and produce a great meat box including their own burgers, steaks, home-cured bacon and sausages to name a few. Keep your eyes peeled on the blackboard by their gate at Herberts Farm or on their Facebook page.

The Peacock, Oxhill

We’re big fans of burger night at Peacock in Oxhill, so when we spotted their signature beef pattie (£12 each) on the menu it was a must. They offer collection and delivery and our burgers were the excellent meat feasts we’re used too. The churros was a good dessert. Be sure to order early, they get booked up. 

Wykham Arms, Sibford Gower

Next up Wykham Arms in Sibford Gower, more oriental dishes on the menu and my satay chicken with noodles were delicious (£10 a dish). We didn’t have to wait long before dinner was ready for collection.  

Bower House, Shipston-on-Stour

On Easter Sunday, we had the Easter Feast from Bower House in Shipston, again collection. Of the three, it has the most sophisticated menu. True restaurant quality food in our home – roast lamb shoulder, dauphinoise potatoes followed simnel spiced panettone bread and butter pudding.  Still a reasonable £40 for two courses for two people. 

The Bell, Shenington

We’ve not eaten here yet, but they are just six minutes away!

The Straw Kitchen, Whichford

This one is a bit further away, but we love it, as it does the best vegetarian food around (and of course non-vegetarian!) It’s only open weekends at the moment.

The Stag’s Head, Swalcliffe

Always a fan of the Stag’s Head, and we visited just before lock down for it’s Greek Night. You can order some of their greek classics for takeaway. They are delivering to the Sibfords. Check out their menu here: https://irp-cdn.multiscreensite.com/24fe0a06/files/uploaded/Menu%20Takeaway.pdf

Shukers, Kineton

Shukers Indian Brasserie has been a long favourite in the Friend household, although they are not delivering to Tysoe it’s only a short ride away in Kineton. They are still offering their full menu Wednesday – Sunday 5pm – 10pm, and have put in place social distancing measures. Takeaways are collected at the front door in an orderly fashion. https://www.shukursbrasserie.com/

Rose & Crown, Ratley

To my shame, I’ve never been to the Rose & Crown in Ratley, but the pub is offering takeaway Friday, Saturday (6pm – 8pm) & Sunday (midday – 2pm). They have also opened a community shop. https://www.roseandcrownratley.co.uk/takeaway-service/ Friday night is curry night!



Malt & Shovel, Gaydon

Potentially the furthest away to Tysoe in this roundup the Malt & Shovel in Gaydon, which is also offering takeaway menu including pub classics, pizza and lunch baguettes! They are open for orders until 8.30pm.

Indian Queen, Wroxton

Another Indian takeaway favourite, the team at the Indian Queen are now open!

    I didn’t realise you were so close to me. Have to admit we’ve not used any takeaways since lockdown but it’s great so many pubs near us are offering a service.
