Harden's survey result
Summary
This “lovely, chic restaurant in a pretty and historic Worcestershire Cotswold town” offers “a great dining experience” with “some excellent dishes, beautifully served and delightfully prepared”. A new owner, Birmingham-based Roger Dudley, has taken over from Andrew & Gaynor Riley, who ran the property for 18 years, but chef George Santos and his kitchen team have carried on much as before.
Summary
“Excellent and innovative cooking” contributes to a “really lovely meal” at this “reliable” restaurant-with-rooms named after furniture designer Gordon Russell, a former occupant of the property whose father owned the Lygon Arms. The chippie next door is under the same ownership, and offers “wonderful fresh fish ’n’ chips – not all greasy, and cooked to order”.
Summary
This “wonderful” local restaurant with rooms on the High Street occupies furniture designer Gordon Russell’s former workshop (his father owned the nearby Lygon Arms). There’s an enticing modern British menu (and a fish ’n’ chippie next door under the same ownership).
Summary
In British furniture designer Gordon Russell’s old workshop, this modern British venture is a “well loved local” offering “great-quality ingredients” to “generally good” effect. The owner also runs the adjoining chippie: “top fish ’n’ chips with gluten free option”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

Russell's of Broadway Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Friendly local restaurant "
"Consistent food; variable service. Too often, friends of the wait staff take over the bar and distract them."
"Good food; very inexperienced but willing, serving staff - need leadership and direction. Owner needs to decide if he’s running a bar or a restaurant."
"Fish and chips consistently good, enjoyed inside the small chippie cafe or better still, on a nice day, at one of the tables on the outside terrace."
