A Riverside Sunday Roast Worth Booking For in Offenham
If you're on the hunt for a proper Sunday roast in Evesham, you'll want to make a note of The Bridge Inn & Ferry. Tucked away on the banks of the River Avon in Offenham, just a couple of miles from Evesham town centre, this riverside pub has built a reputation as one of the best places in the area for a traditional Sunday lunch. Below, you'll find everything you need to know: serving times, what's on the menu, what it'll cost you, and the easiest way to book your table.
Why The Bridge Inn & Ferry Is Worth the Trip
There's no shortage of pubs claiming to do a good Sunday roast, but The Bridge Inn & Ferry backs it up. The kitchen is led by an award-winning team, including a Pub Restaurant Chef of the Year, and that level of care shows up on the plate every single week. The meat comes from Aubrey Allen, one of the country's most respected butchers, so you're getting proper quality rather than something that's been sitting in a freezer.
Then there's the setting. Few Sunday roasts near Evesham come with a view like this one: tables looking out over the River Avon, a genuinely relaxed atmosphere, and a pub that welcomes families and dogs alike. It's the kind of place where you can happily linger over a second glass of wine while the kids finish their pudding.

Sunday Roast Times at The Bridge Inn & Ferry
One of the best things about Sunday lunch here is the flexibility. Rather than squeezing everyone into one or two rigid sittings, the roast is served from midday right through until 9 pm. That means whether you fancy an early roast before the afternoon gets away from you, or you'd rather relax with a late Sunday dinner instead, the kitchen has you covered.
That said, the middle of the day (roughly 1 pm to 3 pm) tends to be the busiest period, so if you're set on a specific time, it's worth booking ahead rather than turning up and hoping for the best.
What's on the Sunday Roast Menu
A proper Sunday roast dinner is all about the trimmings, and this one doesn't cut corners. Every roast comes with roast potatoes, seasonal vegetables, cauliflower cheese, homemade Yorkshire pudding and gravy. On top of that, you can choose from:
- Aubrey Allen's Rump of Beef, £19
- Slow Roast Shoulder of Lamb & Stuffing, £18
- Twice-cooked Pork Belly & Stuffing, £18
- Lemon & Thyme Cotswold Chicken Breast & Stuffing, £18
- Roast Butternut Squash, Crisp Halloumi, Goats Cheese Sauce & Stuffing (V), £16
Whether you're a beef traditionalist or you'd rather go meat-free with the butternut squash and halloumi option, everyone at the table gets the same generous trimmings. If you have any allergies or dietary requirements, just let a member of the team know before you order, and check the Sunday Roast page for the latest menu, as dishes and prices are reviewed seasonally.
How Much Does Sunday Lunch Cost?
Prices are straightforward and fair for what you get. Mains range from £16 for the vegetarian butternut squash and halloumi roast up to £19 for Aubrey Allen's rump of beef, with the lamb, pork belly and chicken options all sitting at £18. Every plate includes all the trimmings as standard, so there's no need to pay extra for sides. For the most current pricing, it's always worth double-checking the Sunday Roast page before you visit.
