William’s is a multi-award-winning seafood restaurant, fishmonger, delicatessen and caterer in the heart of Nailsworth, Gloucestershire.

A veritable Cotswolds institution for over forty-five years, William’s has recently benefitted from a full-scale refurbishment of both the restaurant and shop area in January 2020.

Alongside a 64-cover new restaurant sits a new fish counter displaying an outstanding range of fresh seafood, delivered daily from Scotland and the South West coastline. The adjacent delicatessen offers a large selection of chef-prepared meals, cheeses, charcuterie and terrines as well as fresh fruit and vegetables.

We are proud to have been voted one of Matthew Fort’s ‘Five Favourite Places to Shop’ and one of Rick Stein’s ‘Food Heroes’.

    Great atmosphere with a full house. Service was prompt and very friendly. We had the two course fixed menu. Chowder starter was a bit disappointing: small bowl with more potato and corn than fish. The hake portion was quite small but the Catalan stew was excellent. Not quite as good as previously but we will be back.

    The fish chowder from the fixed lunch menu was not to standard. It was weak, thin and not very tasty or like a true chowder and the accompanying piece of bread was plain, no butter or olive oil on side. I would not recommend. The main dish and dessert were fine and the general ambience and service wonderful as always.

    Just brilliant from start to finish. Alex and her team are First Class - nothing is too much trouble and Alex will always go out of her way to ensure we not only have great food, but great service too ! We took my father ahead of his 88th birthday and it was superb - delicious food and a lovely touch for him at the end with a tasty slice of cake with a lit candle ( and singing !) Every time we go we think it can’t get even better .. and it does ! Thank you all for making our visit so Special & Memorable xx

    Fabulous all round. The food was outstanding, but the service was so lovely. Really appreciated the little Happy Birthday cake and the kindness of the staff.
