Theo & Sebastian who are brothers, started Smiths in the middle of a pandemic! We are seriously passionate about patties and are based in Bourton-On-The-water, also known as ‘Venice of the Cotswolds’. Our restaurant sits circa 30 guests making it a small, exclusive place to come and eat. Since opening, we have made it our mission to get our hands on the best possible ingredients. We also use dry aged beef with a great fat content supplied by Aubrey Allen, which marries up with our strong, unique flavour combinations giving you the ultimate bite! We cant forget about or delightful buns, which are handmade daily by a wonderful local baker. All the flour used for our buns is made up of Cotswold flour sourced from local farmers.

We also pride ourselves on having a vibrant cocktail scene. All of our cocktails are bespoke to us and our syrups and flavourings are made in house!

    Could not fault the restaurant, the owner and the waiting staff. They went above and beyond for our meal, they catered for our 8 month old baby, a birthday brownie and the service was just excellent. Would highly recommend this restaurant and the staff and will definitely be coming back.

    Very tasty burgers that were a bit different. The tater tots were also excellent. Service was also good though we did feel we were a bit of a nuisance as last customers at 9.25pm/ chairs on tables in rest of restaurant and we were booked for 8pm!!!

    First time experiencing Smiths, and it did not disappoint! The burger’s taste 10/10 and the truffle chips are probably the best I’ve tried.

    We have visited Smiths multiple times and it’s by far our favourite burger place. Food is always fantastic, service is always super friendly and the atmosphere is great. Anyone travelling to the Cotswolds, needs to pay a visit to Smiths for the best burgers - you won’t be disappointed!

    One of our best visits! The GF bun was much better than last time which was a great surprise, service was excellent, both people we spoke to were super kind and friendly, and everything came out piping hot! We both had the smiths classic, fries and my husband had chicken tenders, and there were clear plates all round! We loved that you also checked our dog would be okay with another close by :)

    The best burger ever. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was very cosy. Would have been better with the fireplace on, a bit cold.
