The Drawing Board
About
The Drawing Board (The DB) is a vibrant independent free house in Leamington Spa, blending casual dining with a relaxed pub atmosphere across two well‑spaced floors. Since its opening in 2015, it has earned a reputation for eclectic, gourmet bar‑food ranging from tapas‑style plates to weekend specials like local SPAM fritters, all crafted with independent local producers and a touch of Iceland for essentials. The interior is a quirky mix of mismatched furniture, log burners and leather sofas, surrounded by vintage comic books, gaming consoles and botanical prints, creating an artsy yet welcoming setting for families, friends and solo diners alike. With live music, a cosy outdoor patio, and a free‑house policy, The DB offers a friendly spot for both meals and drinks, complete with vegan and gluten‑free options.
