Easter Lunch Near Barnwood

For those looking for a relaxed, well-cooked Easter lunch near Barnwood, Oakwood Hotel offers a comfortable option throughout the Easter period, just a short drive away in Twigworth, on the outskirts of Gloucester. Whether you’re marking Good Friday, Easter Saturday, or simply looking for a nice lunch out somewhere during the wider holiday weekend, our dining spaces offer a genuinely enjoyable setting to spend time with family or friends.

Unlike a single fixed sitting, our Easter lunch offering runs flexibly across the holiday period, giving guests the freedom to book a date and time that suits their plans, rather than competing for one specific slot. This tends to make it a popular choice for those wanting a slightly more relaxed approach to Easter dining.

A Proper Spring Lunch Menu

Our Easter lunch menu draws on the best of what Gloucestershire’s spring produce has to offer, prepared with the same care and attention that runs through everything we serve. Whether you’re after a lighter lunch or something a little more substantial, our kitchen team puts genuine thought into making sure the seasonal menu reflects the freshness of the time of year. Dietary requirements can also be accommodated with advance notice. You can see more of our general dining offering on our dining page.

Where to Enjoy Easter Lunch

The Drawing Room offers a relaxed, comfortable setting well suited to a leisurely lunch, while The Grill provides a slightly more refined option for those wanting a bit more occasion to their meal. When the weather cooperates, The Terrace often comes back into play by Easter, giving guests the chance to enjoy lunch outdoors as spring settles in.

Ideal for Families and Groups

Easter lunch naturally suits a relaxed family gathering, and we’re well equipped to accommodate a range of group sizes, from a quiet table for two through to a larger family booking. For bigger groups or those wanting a slightly more organised gathering, our events team can also help arrange a private space if needed, with details on our occasions and events page.

Convenient for Barnwood Families

Being just a short drive from Barnwood makes Oakwood a practical, easy choice for an Easter lunch without a long journey, particularly appealing for families wanting a relaxed midday meal rather than a more formal evening occasion.
