Pub in Maidenhead

“Absolutely wonderful find tucked away near Maidenhead but definitely worth a visit; if you are looking for a standard curry house, there are other good places; if you want a gastronomic experience not to be forgotten, visit this place. The ambiance lovely, the Michelin style presentation was stunning and each and every dish was delicious; coming from someone with Indian parents with very high food standards, we really loved visiting and look forward to going back with friends!”

“I regularly take my daughter here because it is such a lovely experiance. We travel here for movies even though there are 2 cinemas in our town. Plenty of parking, all seats are recliners and there are no bad angles.”

“I'd put 10 ,⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ if I could! Amazingly delicious food, every bite brings the palate an explosion of tastes, carefully selected and combined! The portions are very big. The atmosphere is very cozy and trendy and the staff shoes real care and hospitality!!! Well done guys!”

“Have stayed a few times. Always very friendly service and clean room. great value for money. Decided to have a bit of a works get together. 12 of us had great food. (it is very good). Happy friendly service. Would recommend the place and somewhere to stay so you can have a drink and enjoy yourselves.”

“I feel like I’ve come to the party late but now want to keep coming back…so I’ve been here x3 in as many weeks and already got a date in the diary to come back next week. Down a little lane that looks like you’re going nowhere then turn left and boom…the beautiful, unspoilt Taplow lake. Not only stunning views from the car park but also from every angle in the outdoor decked cafe. Coffees are wonderful and a really good size, cakes are delicious and the brunch is super. Fresh ingredients, well put together. The service on all three visits has been exceptional. Attentive, friendly staff who are knowledgeable about the menu. It has a great Scandinavian feel sitting on the deck, with nice food, looking over a lake surrounded by trees watching the wildlife and kayakers and paddle boarders. What’s not to like?!”

“A really fantastic venue on the outskirts of Maidenhead. I only had time to attend a gig in the studio which was converted for the evening into an intimate theatre. Very friendly staff and very well curated.”

“I came here for a Sunday roast today and !!WOW!! The beef melted in my mouth and the service was great. The staff are very helpful and made me feel welcome. Thank you to the Cricketers”

“A great pub in the centre of Maidenhead. A good selection on draught. Lovely food which came very promptly. Good food menu with good prices. A proper pub!”

“We recently visited with a group of residents from our local care home, based on the glowing recommendation of one of our residents who often comes here with her family, and what an excellent recommendation it was! From the moment we arrived, the staff couldn’t have been more welcoming or accommodating. They were attentive throughout our visit and kept us informed about when our meals would be served. The food was absolutely fantastic, fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. Nothing was too much trouble, and the whole experience was seamless from start to finish. This will definitely become a regular lunch spot for us. Highly recommended!”

“Utterly brilliant, just held the most amazing and memorable (not to mention different) party here. Lunch, hog roast and breakfast very good indeed. Service, pretty much unbeatable I’d say. We didn’t way to leave, the place was like a classy Mediterranean location.”

“Came for Christmas dinner at the shire horse. Was greeted with a warm welcome from Mel, who seated us. We had booked the pre-ordered Christmas dinner. The food was brought out in a timely manor, and Amelia who looked after our table always checked in with us. Each dish was impeccable, especially impressed with the steak dinner as it was cooked perfectly to my liking. The atmosphere is warm, calm, and bubbly,a beautiful balance. Thank you to Mel, Stanley, Amelia and all the staff at the shire horse for making this Christmas special x”

“The most delicious dining experience and such warm and friendly staff! Fantastically generous with their servings. We had the seafood linguine and were pleasantly surprised how much seafood it comes with! Tasty and inviting - we will be back soon!”
