Why We Love This Deal
The Ragged Cot is a charming Gloucestershire pub serving "well prepared home-cooked meals" (The AA). It backs onto 600 acres of National Trust land within the heart of the Cotswolds. Visit the AA-Rosette-awarded property for a 2-course meal for two, including bubbly. Travelzoo Members pay £25.50 per person, saving up to 35% on the normal price.
What's Included
A 2-course meal for two from the all-day menu. Includes a starter (up to £11.95) and a main course (up to £20.95) each
The Ragged Cot is a cosy 17th-century hotel near the ancient market town of Minchinhampton. The AA says it gives the "feel of a proper traditional country inn".
It's less than 20 minutes' drive from a number of pretty Cotswolds towns including Cirencester and Stroud.
''This is where to come for wholesome, casual dining'', says The Daily Telegraph.
Meals are prepared using fresh and local produce wherever possible. This includes meat supplied by a Cirencester-based family-owned butcher. They also use fruit and vegetables grown in nearby farms and orchards.

I couldn’t book on line, their system wouldn’t allow me to book but over the phone it was easy. Friendly greeting, lovely food and a relaxed atmosphere. A great place for ladies that lunch.

Very convivial atmosphere from when we arrived. We were quickly shown to our seats in the restaurant and enjoyed our Proseccos whilst making our choice from the menu.
The soup starter was very tasty and this was followed by a beautifully cooked steak that was very tender and tasted delicious. Desserts were of a similar high standard - this is a restaurant that does all the little things well. Meal was complimented by an excellent Malbec that really enhanced the whole experience.
A memorable evening!

With 3 different curry and 2 burger options found the menu a bit limited and although there were other choices several of these did not fall into the price bracket covered by the voucher

We arrived late but there was a table for us. Limited choice of starters within the budget, but you could pay the extra. Good choice of mains. Starters a bit slow to arrive as they were busy. Food was delicious, and very well presented. Staff courteous and attentive.

Totally inflexible: would not substitute wine for prosceco; charged £5 pound extra for starters but no refund for choosing cheapest main course saving £6; refused request to swap starter for dessert - only pub I've ever visited that was so unhelpful!!!

Very nice location in the Cotswolds. The service was OK but not great. Had to wait ages for our plates to be cleared after our starter and mains took an age to come out even though the Pub was almost empty. Main issue was the time it took for our glasses of Prosecco to be delivered. They were supposed to be drunk whilst we were eating our main courses but came out when we were pretty much finished.
