    Cottage pie with beef
    Zemin H.

    The corn soup was kind of bland, even with help of salt and peppers. Cottage pie with beef tasted very good, the mashed potato was creamy, the mix of beef and mashed potato also provided nice texture to chew. After spending most time outside in a cold spring morning waiting at outside of Windsor for rehearsal of Royal wedding of Prince Harry and Morgan, the pie really satisfied my hunger.

    Super friendly service, great humor from our waitress, and food was quite good. Had fish and chips with side salad, the latter which was fresh and fish portion was huge! Due to a sensitive tummy, can't eat a lot of fried and battered food, but can't come to England and not have fish and chips! So only had a few bites of fish with batter on it, before picking off the breading and eating only fish- liked the fresh tartar sauce (tasted homemade). Great view of castle with British flag banner over the mews- would come back for sure.

    We came here after visiting Windsor Castle. It was cool because you could eat outside and still see part of the castle. We each had pies. We had the Shepard's pie and the chicken and mushroom pie. Both equally delicious. Also the pork scratching with applesauce. I'm not sure if they were short staffed because the service was a little slow, but the food was delicious and I would recommend this place!

    Just had the BEST dining experience here! Went to the castle and stopped here after for dinner. I had the ribs which my father tried and said were the best he'd had his entire life. The Shepherd's pie was also very good, and all the desserts were incredible. I managed to snap a picture of the desserts we ordered(chocolate cake, apple pie, toffee pudding) before everyone devoured them! Also the service was great, very quick and friendly!!

    This was everything I had hoped it would be. Roaring fire on a cold day. Amazing Shepherds pie. Smooth Guinness. To top it off an amazing sticky toffee pudding. Been here since 1645. Not bad. I'll be back next time I'm in the vicinity.

    This restaurant was right next to the exit of Windsor Castle and proved to be a great place to refuel with a pint and some food. Amongst several other restaurants it was difficult to choose so we walked around looking at menus and everyone's food. This restaurant in our opinion had the best value and quality. Bonus! High chairs available Negative - don't expect to change your baby in this barroom, it's up a winding staircase and is tiny. Although we had no problem changing my daughter on the other side of the street on a park bench. Don't worry!! We used a changing pad so don't worry that you'll be sitting in her poo . It's a nice somewhat isolated area.

    This place serves up good, hearty English food and we got excellent service, especially the ale and cider recommendations from our server. My fish and chips were pretty decent and I appreciated that the fish wasn't overtly oily. Also my peas were proper fresh produce, not something out of a can or reconstituted. My dining companion got a chicken and ham pie which he polished off and he said the accompanying mashed potatoes were especially delish. Glad we went here for lunch, thanks to comments from the other yelp reviews!

    Turkey Roast. Absolutely lovely!

    Food is absolutely fantastic and the old world charm of the place is great. Staff is super friendly and the owner Steve is always around for a chat. I highly recommend!

    Chicken pie at Drury House
    Kristy C.

    We spotted the back of Drury House Restaurant while waiting in line to enter Windsor Castle, with its sign behind the restaurant identifying it as the oldest in Windsor. After spending a rainy few hours touring the Castle grounds, we were cold and starving, and walked across the street to give Drury House a try... I'm so glad we did! We started with traditional black tea (I loved the real odd-sized brown and white sugar cubes). I had the chicken pie with a cream sauce that was really delicious, and was so filling I didn't have room left over for the homemade bread pudding special I had been eyeing. The delicious food, and atmosphere with the old school dark wood paneling, cozy dining area, traditional dumbwaiter delivery of the food from the kitchen, and roaring fire made this our favorite meal during our week in the London area. I will definitely go back the next time I'm in Windsor!

    This is a 3 year late review, but as I was prompted to find the name of the restaurant from my "memories" on FB, I thought, better late than never! This was the first restaurant we visited on my first trip to England and it did not disappoint! My love ordered Fish and Chips, as he was missing the authentic British dish back in the states where it's not quite up to par. I ordered Beef Wellington since that is not a standard dish in the US. Both were so delicious!!! The "creamed potatoes" were the best I've ever had. The service was pleasant and the old little house had lots of charm. Plus it is literally right next to the castle. We will definitely return next time in Windsor!

    What a great 17fh century find right near Windsor Castle. Joe the Front End man was very gracious. We had the Chicken Pot Pie and a delicious beef stew. Excellent food and old world charm.

    Cozy atmosphere with a fireplace from cold, rainy days

    Absolutely delicious!…read more The food here is excellent, and the menu has a lot of options to choose from. We came early in the morning, and there were only a couple of other diners eating when we walked in. We were promptly seated and our drink order was taken. There was only one server, and he didn't come back with my coffee, or take our food order for ages. I admit, I was very frustrated with the long wait, and mumbled under my breath about how long it took to make a coffee. Unbeknownst to me, the server was right behind me and heard my remark... needless to say, service was prompt and efficient after that! I ordered the Plant Plate and was absolutely blown away at the huge portions, also how delicious everything was. I'm American, and my spouse is British, so I always thought it was strange to watch him eat baked beans for breakfast over the years... but surprisingly, it's pretty good and I'd definitely have it again. My spouse had the Pancake Stack with fresh fruit and really enjoyed his as well. The dining room is bright, airy, comfortable, and clean. The toilets are clean as well. Overall, the food was excellent, reasonably priced, and a great value for the huge portions and fresh, delicious food you get to enjoy. Highly Recommended!

A local saw us roaming the streets with their heads down in our phone, searching for places to eat. He was so nice and recommended a few places. I actually recommend this place. He even walked us to the restaurant. That's our surprise. He used to even live in Fort Lauderdale once upon a time, but it's been he's been living in Windsor city for a few years now he seems so happy and upbeat. We arrived to the place. There was really not a lot of people there we sat down wherever we liked, and the server greeted us and took our order. I ordered the fish and chips with the Minty peas, I felt like the fish needed more seasoning in my opinion, and I wasn't a huge big fan of the minty peas. My grandmother had a balmoral chicken entree which she enjoyed. The plates were huge and filling. They played music like 90s rock and some Bob Marley. The place was pretty chill with locals at the bar. They did had a dog in there which was cute but also not too cute when it got too close to your food so we had to tell the owner to get their dog

The previous 24 hours had not been a celebration of lodging or dining so by the time I hiked into town via the Thames River Path I was looking to treat myself. A simple pub wasn't the answer and until I saw it, I didn't know that Gilbey's was just what I needed. With several large parties going on in other parts of the restaurant it was easy, from my sunny window seat, to see why people would host parties here. Everything about the place felt upscale and special. I splurged on a Flat Iron Steak (good) and sampled Gilbey's rendition of Fish & Chips (excellent). The food was tasty and beautifully presented but it was really the whole of the place that made it sing for me. It even annoyed me when someone wandered out from their party and set an empty cocktail glass beside an attractive floral arrangement before departing. I wanted Gilbey's to be as pristine as it was before she did that and pointed it out to our server for removal. Gilbey's is a great place to splurge a bit in an environment that practically demands a cocktail and a couple of hours. When I told my server how much I enjoyed it here she inquired where in town I was staying. "Next time stay here" she winked. Gilbey's has a small number of absolutely lovely rooms to lodge in. If you find yourself in Eton you might as well splurge. Lunch, dinner, or drinks at Gilbey's and perhaps a room above will nicely meet that requirement.

The restaurant is walking distance from Windsor Castle. A must place to dine if in the area. Make reservations. They are quite busy and well worth the visit.

If you answered yes to these four questions, head immediately to The Royal Oak. We had a slight concern when my GPS said we had arrived and it was a completely different pub. Luckily, the right pub was just a bit further up the road. We booked Sunday Lunch, because who doesn't like Sunday Lunch in a pub? If you bring your Ferrari, you can park right in the front as well! The inside is really warm and charming. There are really friendly staff there to welcome you in and let you sit in some comfy chairs and couches and have a drink while you're waiting for your fourth dining companion to arrive. So kudos to that. Our table was in the back in what looked like was an add-on. But one whole wall is full of windows overlooking a beautiful garden, so you don't really feel like you're shoved way in the back corner. The service was a bit slow, but if you're not in a rush, why does it matter? We ordered the baked Vacherin Mont d'or cheese (which in the winter, I will be doing at home instead of baked brie or Camembert) and a couple of Scotch Eggs and Rabbit on toast as pre-nibbles. The eggs and rabbit were nice, but not amazing, but the cheese dip was great. And the bread basket they served was awesome as well. Several types of bread with butter. The olive flatbreads were awesome, and since two diners didn't like olives, two of us got to eat a lot of them. They'll bring as much bread as you ask, but it's super easy to go overboard. For my starter I opted for something different than everyone else and got the game terrine. What a mistake that was. Not that the terrine wasn't delicious. It was, but the rabbit lasagne was like heaven in your mouth. I was super jealous of everyone else. For my main I ordered the hare and trotter pie. The crust wasn't the most amazing, but the filling was probably the best pie filling I've ever had. The hare and trotter were soft and luscious and the gravy was phenomenal. It was really rich so toward the end I had to cut the richness with the delicious mash they served with it. The other half had the woodcock and I tried a few bites of that as well. Awesome. Simply awesome. His only complaint was that it was huge and very rich so it was hard to finish it all, and he didn't want dessert at the end of the meal. For dessert, two of us ordered the chocolate fondant and one the butterscotch pudding. I loved the fondant, but again it was really good sized and incredibly rich. It was a lot after the rich pie. And the filling was almost too oozy. At least it wasn't over done. We also ordered some Madeleines and our coffees and teas came with Petits Fours. The Madeleines were kind of boring for me, they needed more flavor, but the Petits Fours (a raisin cake, coconut marshmallow and a chocolate truffle) were great. The coffee not so much. I hate ordering filter coffee and just getting a long pull espresso. They are not the same. But the bad parts were really minor. The good parts far outshown and some of the dishes we had were some of the best dishes of the weekend. The woodcock was fantastic and I'm still having dreams about my pie. I need to figure out how to make something that good at home. With a better pie crust. It's unfortunate that it's not really conveniently close, because I could see myself ending up here quite a bit. Since I was driving, I couldn't drink either, but given my state the night before, it was probably a good thing. If you're in the area and fancy an amazingly laid back atmosphere with awesome food, book this place!
