Description
The Windmill Inn is a traditional 16th Century black and white pub near the town centre of Stratford upon Avon in Church Street. It is well known locally for quality cask ale, delicious food and friendly service. A plaque on the wall outside The Windmill says:-
"Welcome Friends ! I've been an inn for more than 350 years. While Will Shakespeare was writing his immortal plays some of his fellow townsmen were enjoying their favourite drink here. They must at times have enjoyed his company too for he lived only a hundred yards away and the home of his daughter, Susanna Hall, was round the corner in Old Town. The welcome at The Windmill is as cordial now as it was in the poet's day.
Church Street Stratford-Upon-Avon 1955."
Inscribed in one of the original Oak beam's inside is "It is a Pub, built in 1599, and a year later, became Ale house of the year."
