   Excellent staff, delicious cocktails and incredible food, we pretty much ate the entire menu. Everything was cooked and served to perfection We will be back and soon Dog friendly and lovely ambience, such a lovely local. The husband wanted the Sunday lunch and trimmings and the stepdaughter and I wanted the sashimi cracker - it’s a thing of beauty and less heavy bites. The Caesar salad was sensational

   Great evening, lovely food and attentive service, ambience ++. 4plates 2 glasses of wine each, just under £50.00 a head. We will go again

   We asked 2 waitresses for our main course to come out 10 mins after starters to give us a break between courses, this did not happen, although we were told this wasn’t a problem at all. The main course arrived whilst eating starters. We spoke to the waiter and explained what we had requested, the reply was well what am I supposed to do with this fish then? (Helpful!) The lemon sole arrived after about 1/2 an hour, drenched in lemon juice, completely over powered the fish. Made this dish hard to eat. As for the triple cooked chips, they were covered in a black garlic sauce, they looked like they had been covered in black syrup. Absolutely awful and inedible. Sadly our first trip there was a bit of a disaster. Also sitting by the back doors is freezing when you constantly have people going in and out to smoke and they don’t close the doors behind them. For a £200 meal I would have expected better than this!

   Great food, but wrong concept. Tapas idea. However, chips came after the meal. Our friends had finished their main meal and we were still waiting.

   Small informal business dinner which I booked for one of my managers. She said the food was great, but what she did comment on that the service was much better than her previous visit about a six weeks prior.

   This is a new restaurant/pub in Henley and we wanted to give it a try for Sunday lunch. Largely, it was really disappointing. Service was very poor (slow, not friendly, not attentive) and it just didn’t feel like they were trying given how keen they must been to impress newcomers. The classic situation of the restaurant being half full yet staff stood around talking when people needed service. The food was better than the service, but it’s a very strange menu, given the very obvious pub surroundings. The great debate in restaurants is whether you do a burger - they don’t. It is trying to elevate (no bad thing) but is simply very expensive for average quality of finished plates and fairly small portions. The roast pork Sunday lunch had two slim, albeit tasty slices. The surroundings are lovely and well done. But it’s the cost that is the killer - for two adults, two children, Sunday lunch, kids portions; no booze and no pudding was £124. It’s just too expensive for this position and town - Henley is a nice place with excellent country pubs around it - it is very hard to make fancy and v expensive work. Sadly the lack of decent service and very high cost means we wouldn’t visit again and wouldn’t say good things to our friends and family who live in Henley. The current menu/concept needs some major change to make it work.

    Food is delicious but slightly overpriced for the size of some of the portions
