We loved the King and Castle! We came in the afternoon after a Windsor Castle tour and were welcomed by lots of open tables! We all enjoyed the afternoon specials menu where prices were reduced- unlike neighboring establishments! The fish and chips were absolutely incredible and I would recommend this restaurant to anyone coming to Windsor! read more

The King & Castle - Fish and Chips - Pubs Near Me - Windsor, WNM

We were visiting the castle and had some additional time to try a local pub. We wanted to enjoy the back garden patio, but it was full given that it was a beautiful spring day. We opted to sit in the main seating area at street level and enjoy the view of the castle. We appreciated the traditional pub decor. Our bartender knew little about beer and was unable to make any useful recommendations based on the preferences provided which was highly disappointing and resulted in a poor selection. I ended up taking three sips and leaving the rest of the pint. It would have been nice to have been offered a taste or the suggestion to begin with the half-pint option. My husband liked his and really liked the vibe in the pub, so I'd be willing to give it another chance. read more

Well, this is the pub that I discovered that people can still smoke in the outdoor eating areas, though I'm not really sure how long that is going to last. Actually, it had a pretty awesome outdoor area, but then again with the indoor smoking ban, that has become more common in England like it has in Australia. It's a pretty awesome pub though, and it has multiple levels as well. Yeah, this place was pretty cool actually. read more

This is a Wetherspoon's affiliate. Another of the order with the app at your table places. We had a margherita pizza that looks and tastes like a microwaved cheese pizza, Fish and Chips that my son and I agree is the worst we have ever had and we are from America and Chicken bites that might have been fried. The sauce comes in Packets (runny tartar sauce(Heinz)) Chips were the best part but not by much. Peas were 2 different colors and definetly like the fish came from a frozen bag and were microwaved. Congratulations Wetherspoon, you are officially the Applebees of Great Britain. read more

Pretty average breakfast selections but the staff was so friendly. Beautiful interior and a great place to relax in between exploring sites in Windsor. read more

This place isn't as bad as fellow yelpers make it out to be! We stopped by after a trip to Windsor castle and ordered 2 fish & chips entrees, a beer, and tea for 23 pounds which is about $36. Considering the exchange rate and how much our dollar sucks right now, I thought it was a good deal. The fish and fries were crispy and fresh, though greatly improved with the assorted sauces readily available at our table, and I loved the mashed peas (we have no such thing in the US). Between 3 people we were adequately full splitting the 2 entrees. The beer was a bit tasteless but that's okay. I don't know if it was the keg or the beer itself. I finished it anyway. This place was crowded on all three floors when we came in. You order at the bar and then sit down and wait. We didn't wait too long. I know the Thai establishments on the same street have better reviews than this place but I didn't travel half way around the world to eat Thai food in England. I enjoyed the fish n chips and the mashed peas (where can I get them state side?!?) and am glad we chose this place. read more

Unfortunately, a terrible experience for us. Food was average. Ordered drinks and paid on their app. They took our drinks bc they didn't accept our foreign ids. Would not refund us, but past that it was how we were treated that was shocking. So very rude and condescending. Also, I am 46 and so I guess I will take that as my compliment for the day. Don't waste your time. read more

This place was a nice surprise. Food was decent and the outdoor patio was very nice on a summer day. All the food and drinks were very reasonably priced and you order from the table from your phone and they bring it right out to your table. Nice atmosphere read more

Great ales, great service. And it's hard to beat looking at a castle while having a pint! Go here! Go to Windsor! read more

The King & Castle - View from table! - Pubs Near Me - Windsor, WNM

The worst food ever We were a large group of walkers but, although the pub was quite busy on a Sunday evening, we found easily enough space for us all on the lower ground floor. Free WiFi is provided by The Cloud. I took 'hand carved lamb rump' for £8.99 on the Sunday club menu. The overcooked and tasteless meat came with roast and mash potatoes, carrots, peas, brussel sprouts, yorkshire pudding and gravy. Reading what I just wrote it looks good but don't be fooled it is not good at all. Just extremely bland and virtually inedible. Calories are indicated on the menu but I am not sure how reliable this is since for my meal calories on the menu on the table considerably differ from calories on the online menu. As for the temperature, the food was tepid and the place was insufficiently heated, I had to put my fleece back on after 5 minutes there. In summary: to be avoided at all costs. read more

My wife and I enjoyed fish chips and mushy peas in this very relaxed Wetherspoons pub. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. Good value for money as always and would definitely recommend. read more

Better than average pub fare with a friendly and hustling staff who bring the energy to the dining room. Nice atmosphere and clearly a cut above the average pub. Probably caters to tourists more than locals; nevertheless, it does not disappoint. read more

We popped in after our tour of the castle. As soon as you walk in it feels like a chain and I recently found that out to be true. Not a bash but I would rather hang at a small pub. The place is huge with two bars; on up and one down. Great selection of ales and lagers. We sat outside since it was so nice out. They have a lot of seats both inside and outside. I think we had a pint or two and then headed back to Marylebone. Just a good place with lots of room and selection. read more

King & Castle sits on High Street in Windsor and is the first pub you see when walking from the train station. It has 3 levels inside, with window views of Windsor Castle just across the street. The back garden is huge with many tables, perfect for those sunny days. Families are indeed welcome! It also boasts a roof terrace/balcony that overlooks the back garden, so you have plenty of seats to choose from. The food deals are great, as this is a Wetherspoons chain, so a pint and a meal is more than affordable in an otherwise pricey town. Remember to note your table number and order at the bar. Great place for a drink or bite to eat in Windsor! Be sure to turn right out of the pub when leaving and visit the Windsor historic church, 2 minute walk on High Street. read more

The best range of beers I've ever seen. But be careful. The locals say the garden is haunted by a balding ghost that taunts his ethereal friends until they reach breaking point. Best wear a crucifix. Also rumors of unsavoury activities in the gents loos. read more

A great big, friendly, 'Spoons. Not the tidiest. The ladies' toilets were scary, but a nice and cheap place to pop in for drinks on a day out in Windsor that didn't break the bank. Fair enough! read more

The food was average, particularly the fish and chips. The restaurant does not allow children in after 9pm, so we had to eat quickly. The restaurant is a great location, across from Windsor Castle, and you can have a view of the restaurant, if you seat yourself appropriately. read more

Worst customer service I have ever encountered and it's not from the staff but the owner. I took my family there for lunch when visiting Windsor for the day. Not long after ordering from the bar a lady came over to the table and told us the pie we ordered was not available and explained the reason was that barman made a mistake due to the new menu and new ordering system they have. Basically the only pie on the new menu which we ordered from was not yet available at this Weatherspoon pub, and the barman just selected another pie in their new ordering system which they don't have either. We didn't think much of it and just told her we will change it to fish and chips instead. She then said we had to pay more for the difference which was fine with us and I went with her to the bar to pay the difference. At the bar she told me the additional charge was 3 pound something and I questioned her why it's 3 and not 2 as that is the difference between the price of fish and chip and the pie on the menu. She then explained the pie we paid was not the one on the menu but the other pie on their new ordering system which was cheaper. She was very stone faced and unfriendly up to this point, and not once did she apologised. She also seemed like she was in a hurry and was very matter of fact and snappy in her response. When I mentioned that it is strange how they do not serve food that was on the menu she became defensive and aggressive. I told her that her customer service is very poor and if it was other places that made a mistake in ordering or had a mistake in the menu the customer wouldn't be treated in this way. She became even more aggressive and said every place where there was a difference in prices the customer always have to pay for the difference and implied that I wanted the food for free. That really made me upset as I was happy to pay for the difference otherwise I would not have followed her to the bar. I asked her why is she accusing me of wanting things for free and asked who the owner was. She said she was the owner and I told her this is very bad customer service. She became even more aggressive and defensive and kept saying she thinks she is offering very good customer service and mentioned again and again all she could do in situations like this was to apologise. The fact is she never once said she was "sorry" and never apologised. Saying "all I can do is to apologise" is not an apology. Worst of all she then said she was going to walk away from me and she actually did. It was a very weird experience especially none of this is our fault. They were the one that do not serve food that was on the menu. They are the one that put in the wrong order in their system. They are the one that didn't train their staff properly on the new menu and system. So who's fault is all this? The owner's! From reading some of the posts here, it seems she has anger issues and a habit of being aggressive and flying off the handle. We never tasted the food here as we asked for refund and left. It's a shame that someone like her represent the service industry of Britain especially in a town like Windsor with many foreign tourists. read more

Nicer then your average wetherspoons, spread over three floors. The proximity to the castle means that the prices are a lot higher than The Windlesora (aka the other wetherspoons around the corner) read more

The fish and chips were really good. A tip for Americans... You must place and pay for your order at the bar and include your table #, so your order can be brought to your table. The menu said to order dessert with your main order, and I also ordered coffee to be brought with my dessert. There was a little confusion because they brought my dessert before my meal, and I still needed to go to the bar to get my coffee, which I did. Then, they brought me another coffee to my table. Anyway, the food was good! read more

Great pub on the high street in Windsor that has a view of the Castle upstaris. Been to this pub a few times with my mates before moving on to a club. There is a bar upstairs and downstairs. An overall great pub. read more

The food was cold and was very tasteless . Nice staff but would never eat there again. Onion rings were filled with oil and under cooked. French fries were very soggy. The fish and chips were so bad we could not even set it. 80 percent of the food was left on the table. Pass this place up unless they take more pride in their food. read more
