Discover the restaurant in your own home
If you purchase a retirement property within one of our Retirement Living PLUS developments, you’ll have access to a subsidised on-site chef-run bistro or restaurant serving freshly prepared, seasonal and delicious food all year round. You can expect everyday classics and tempting treats, barista-grade coffees and your favourite tipple, all at impressively low prices.
Hosting without the hassle
We love to cater for your guests too. From parties and private dining in our function rooms to intimate lunches in the restaurant.
When your family and friends visit, you’ll have all the fun of entertaining – without having to cook a thing or wash the pots afterwards.
Get a flavour of our bistros
Open daily, all year round, our bistros and restaurants offer a variety of traditional and contemporary meals – celebrating every occasion. Choose from classics like Full English Breakfast, Fish and Chips and Sunday Roast with all the trimmings or from global flavours like Beef Bourguignon and Chickpea and Squash Tandoori Masala or Brie and Caramelised Red Onion Wellington or Warm Avocado and Falafel Salad with Mint Yoghurt.
“Puddings include things like Crème Brulé or Eton Mess in warmer weather and hot sponge puddings and crumble when it’s cold outside. There’s a lot of sweet tooths! I love my job. I love getting organised so that everyone I cook for is fed and happy. It’s very satisfying seeing people happy.”
You’ll also find light bites, jacket potatoes, soup and a range of sandwiches as well as a variety of drinks from Italian-style cappuccino to an ice-cold gin and tonic.
You can prebook or often just turn up and order on the day.

Entitlements Advice
“Josh Billinge (Resales Property Consultant) and Callum Bailey (Resales Sales Progressor) were great from start to finish. I really appreciated the way they helped me navigate the final stages of the buying process, particularly in getting everything over the line in time for the moving date we were hoping for. Callum’s guidance, reassurance and chasing people up at the end made a real difference. Both Josh and Callum were friendly and reliable so I’d like to say a big thank you.”

“We have just sold my mother’s apartment at Coopers Court, Yate. My son and I have been very impressed with our selling experience through McCarthy Stone Resales from the moment the property was put on the market, until it completed. We were kept fully informed throughout the process and we felt that the Resales team were doing all that they could to help us sell the property. A special mention goes to Julie the Sales Progressor, who worked very hard and gave 110% in helping to manage the process through to a successful completion. We would highly recommend McCarthy Stone Resales as selling agents.”

“I am extremely happy with the excellent service provided by the McCarthy Stone Resales team throughout the sales process of our apartment at McKinlay Court in Kettering. Although McCarthy Stone Resales are slightly more expensive than the other high street agents, this has proven to be money well-spent and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.”
