Unless you're going to The Fat Duck, Bray isn't the first city that comes to mind when planning a…read moretrip to the UK. Since I was staying there two full nights and one of the nights was dinner at The Fat Duck, I intentionally made the other dinner as low-key chill as possible, which was the beer garden at the back of the Crown at Bray. Supposedly the owner is Heston Blumenthal, who is also the owner of The Fat Duck but unlike TFD it is not listed in the four restaurants that comprise the TFD restaurant group - apparently he wanted to keep this a local's pub. But ever since TFD and the other 3-star Michelin Waterside Inn arrived Bray has been the UK's culinary mecca so even the local pub food is already elevated. But just because it's pub food doesn't mean it's cheap... fish and chips here is a tad more than $20. BUT since it's the UK the price of a pint is regulated, so £6/pint is pretty sweet considering how the country is one of the most expensive to travel in the world. I visited here on two occasions, both in the afternoon. During the summer the back garden opens up and service is primarily held over there. You wouldn't be able to tell there was a garden just by looking at the pub. But on both occasions I had to be led into the back because if you didn't know your way you could get lost. On the first visit I just had a very small plate of kofte (think doner but meatballs) served with a dollop of yogurt cucumber with a beer. Simple in execution but delicious since TFD's dinner would've been a few hours later. The following day I went back for a full meal. Beer: Brixton Electric IPA (£6). This is an American-style IPA but better in execution. Being an IPA it's hop-forward but not overly so, as the beer is supposed to be a good balance between malt and hop. I normally don't like IPA's but considering that my meal was fish and chips, you want something as a palate refresher after eating hearty food. Fish & Chips, Crushed Peas, Homemade Tartare Sauce (£19.75). The fish here is haddock, which is more flavorful than cod. Love the skin because it was consistently crispy even 10 minutes later. The chips (fries) are triple-cooked, a method that first brought Heston to national acclaim. The end result is that by nature the fries are extra crispy and hold their crunch for a long time. Very good meal to wrap up my last day in Bray.

Came here as a party of six on a Monday night for dinner. Large outdoor tent setup with several…read moreheaters blowing in hot air during the cold evening. No issue getting a table as we were immediately seated and given menus. Started off with a Sipsmith Gin & Tonic (£8ish) - a refreshing drink that went well with a couple starters. For my main course, ordered the Pork Tenderloin (£25) - glazed sections of pork served alongside carrots, pig oyster, and sage crumb. Incredibly tender pork balanced by the hearty pig oyster. Finished the night off with the Praline Parfait (£10.50) - a domed dessert of praline, chocolate, and Pedro Ximenez. Not overly sweet or decadent; just a nice quick hit of praline flavor. Servers here came by often as they refilled waters and took more drink orders. Definitely worth stopping by no matter what time of year.

After a really disappointing dinner the night before at The Fat Duck, this was exactly what I…read moreneeded. It's literally right down the street, but the vibe couldn't be more different. Forget the science-experiment food--this is just really good pub food that actually tastes like something you want to eat. It's not fancy in a stuffy way, just solid, well-done dishes across the board. Honestly, we didn't miss on a single thing. The drinks were a highlight too. I ordered the Hemingway and it came hidden inside a hollowed-out book, which sounds gimmicky but somehow totally worked and was actually fun. We almost skipped dessert, but ended up popping into the ice cream shop and I'm glad we did. Simple, high-quality, and exactly what hit the spot after a long meal. If you're in Bray and want a meal you'll genuinely enjoy eating, I'd skip the show across the road and come here instead. We also wandered upstairs to the lounge for a drink afterward--the old wood beams and leather chairs made it easy to stay longer than planned.

The whole experience of dining in a Michelin starred restaurant was incredible from start to…read morefinish, we were warmly welcomed, each dish on the menu was explained to us, the staff were friendly and knowledgeable, the food itself was on another level to anything I have experienced before, the atmosphere and the surroundings made this experience breathtaking for us

I really wanted to be blown away by this place, especially given the legendary status, but…read morehonestly? It felt more like a science experiment than a dinner. The service is undeniably top-tier--the staff are incredible and the presentation is some of the most beautiful I've ever seen. But the problem is that it's all theatre and very little substance. Most of the food just doesn't taste good. For the price you're paying, you expect to be wowed by the flavor, but it's mostly just gimmicks. The famous "Sound of the Sea" dish was the biggest disappointment. It looked cool, but it literally tasted like "sand" in my mouth. The seafood didn't even taste that fresh. Even the candy shop at the end, which was a fun little novelty to take home, ended up being a letdown--the stuff just didn't taste great once I got it back. You're basically paying for a five-hour show. If you want a cool story to tell, go for it. But if you actually want a delicious meal, I'd look elsewhere. Elite Tip: It's a marathon. If you do go, don't plan anything else for the day--it's a long time to sit through a "journey" that doesn't always land.

We booked well in advance on the day of opening reservations on tock which were gone in minutes. The restaurant is pretty small and cozy. The food was all on point. We experienced the sensorium meal. Everything tasted great but was slightly gimmicky (that was to be expected given the history of the fat duck). It worked. The fat duck is a fun experience. There weren't any extravagant ingredients but every dish worked well. Definitely worth the trip
