Skew Restaurant & Oyster Bar

About

Skew Restaurant & Oyster Bar offers a vibrant Mediterranean dining experience in the heart of Bishop’s Stortford, overlooking the serene River Stort. The menu blends traditional Turkish and Mediterranean flavors with contemporary twists, featuring classics such as kebabs, meze platters, and fresh seafood, all prepared with passion and locally sourced ingredients. With a relaxed al fresco terrace during summer months, a lively cocktail bar, and a private dining room for intimate gatherings, the venue caters to a wide range of tastes and occasions. The highly praised service—highlighted in numerous guest reviews—pairs well with the lively music and entertainment programme that runs throughout the week, ensuring diners enjoy both food and atmosphere in equal measure. The restaurant welcomes guests of all ages, though children under 12 are requested to leave the premises after 9 pm on Fridays and Saturdays to comply with licensing regulations. Reserve ahead for peak periods, especially weekends and special events, to secure a table or enjoy the bar’s after‑hours offerings. In addition to dinner, the ‘Sunday Roast’ with live pianist, and a range of takeaway options via Deliveroo and GoGetters, keep the Skew experience accessible beyond the dining room. Whether you are a family looking for a relaxed meal, a couple seeking a cosy night out, or a food enthusiast craving authentic Mediterranean cuisine, Skew blends enticing flavor, impeccable service and a welcoming ambience to make every visit memorable.
