Excellent Restaurant
"Paddy, Laura and the team provided a wonderful evening for an 80th Birthday Celebration at The Olive Tree. There were 23 of us and we enjoyed the privacy of the upstairs room for the evening. Communication beforehand was efficient and helpful and they were happy for us to bring balloons and a cake along to add to the evening. Service is impeccable with each person's order being served by name so it was super easy for everyone. The food was delicious, the millionaire's cheesecake was a hit! We have had a number of celebrations here and I would always choose it as a great option for lovely family get togethers. Thanks to everyone at The Olive Tree."

"We had an amazing night at The Olive Tree in Nailsworth to celebrate my husband's 50th. We had a lovely private upstairs room which was perfect for our group size of 19. The service was outstanding - non intrusive, friendly and professional keeping 1 step ahead all the time anticipating every need. The food was wonderful - our guests were so impressed. Amazing bread and olives, pizzas and delicious mains like roast pork and dolcelatte chicken. Dealing with Paddy was fantastic, everything was set up beautifully in advance. Highly recommended for parties and all our family and friends were saying they are super keen to come back to the restaurant. Incredible evening, thank you team Olive Tree!!"

"What can I say! We had pizzas for our party at Waterloo House 50 of them!! Paddy was so helpful with our queries and nothing was too much trouble. On the night a lovely member of staff from the Olive Tree delivered our pizzas, they were absolutely delicious and everyone commented on how great they were. Thankyou Paddy and all your team helping to make our night so special."

""We live near the Olive Tree and we are so fortunate to have such an excellent restaurant nearby. We are regulars and really admire the proprietor, Paddy, who always greets us happily. Such a genuine nice guy. He trains all his staff well, and we have never had a bad experience - the food is always delicious (our recent visit no exception). The menu is great - always plenty of choices for all tastes. Easy to park opposite in Morrison's car park in the evening too."
- Ella D., September 2024
"This is simply an excellent restaurant! The food was very good indeed - a simple menu, well-cooked, and the service was excellent - friendly, up-beat and inviting. It's a family restaurant and it deserves to continue to do very well."

"5th time back (!), and this wonderful restaurant just continually delivers excellent food and the best service every time! Tried others locally and they just don't compete! So glad to find it since moving here a few months ago. Highly recommended."

"Went here for my Mum's 80th birthday with 14 other family members. We had a lovely time and the service was spot on and made the whole experience fab. The food was perfect for a lunch, and deserts and coffee were spot on. Would highly recommend as we were really looked after."

"In this world of failing customer service, I was very happy to experience The Olive Tree. We were welcomed with gusto(!), and the service was friendly and helpful. The staff were very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. There was a small mix-up with the booking which was dealt with promptly, honourably and with humour. AND the food was excellent. I cannot recommend The Olive Tree enough. Go there!"

"Great welcome from Paddy. Chose to sit in the courtyard as it was such a lovely evening. Varied choice on the menu - a lovely relaxed meal which we very much enjoyed. Staff friendly and helpful as always. We've eaten here several times before and will be back again and again!"

"Thank you so much for our delicious afternoon tea! It was one of the nicest we’ve all ever had, and the bubbles were good too! Highly recommend!"
- Katy Tall, April 2024
"We visited this place a few years ago (before the current owners took over), and we weren't all that impressed. Today we came back and were very, very impressed indeed. The food was stunningly beautiful and very tasty. Best evening in years! Thank you."

"Every time I have visited the Olive Tree, whether it be with friends, family or co-workers, the food has always been delicious, timely and great value. The service is unparalleled… and no matter who looks after you, you feel welcomed. Looking forward to many more delicious meals here."
- Christo Archer, April 2022
"My partner and I came across The Olive Tree today whilst looking for some lunch. We had delicious pizza from a menu so full of delicious dishes that it was hard to choose what to have! The service was friendly, prompt (despite being busy) and helpful. We look forward to becoming regulars and enjoying with friends. A great find in beautiful Nailsworth."
- Ian Daniels, November 2021
"Have to say we went on a date night to the Olive Tree and what a lovely, welcoming and fabulous place. The food was absolutely amazing and the service/staff went above and beyond. Fine dining at its best."

"Thank you Olive Tree for another fantastic experience today. Lovely lunch with the family. Superb food and service, with Paddy, as usual, being a great host. Thanks again!"
- Scott Vernon, February 2021
"Wow! Thank you so much Paddy and team. What a magnificent lunch for 4 people you provided. With everything going on, you pulled the rabbit (or should I say lamb) out of the hat! It was marvellous... a lovely birthday celebration. Every bit was devoured with relish... Really yummy! The puddings too were a delight. Brilliant!"
