Visited for lunch, today. A bright, but cool, sunny day in Henley. Seating outside in the square (how appropriate). We were the first to grab a table and were soon joined by many others who wanted to stop for lunch, dessert, or just coffee.
Very good service - calm, professional, friendly. Very good menu - a range of dishes to suit most appetites and wallets. We enjoyed an omelette and a vegetarian rice dish which tasted absolutely delicious, served in a Portuguese stew pot. Accompanied by sparkling water and a glass of rose for my wife, and two, excellent, coffees.
At a table next to us, a family arrived with a young dog. Before everyone was seated, a bowl of water had been brought over for the pup. Nice touch.
Yes, attentive service with attention to detail. Time to serve was a little longer than expected, but when the food came, we realized why. Everything is prepared from scratch. The vegetables in my dish had clearly only just been washed, chopped, and cooked. The omelette had the flavor that only comes from fresh ingredients.
Some coffee spilt in to the saucer by the server immediately resulted in a replacement when the manager spotted it. And the manager/co-owner made frequent visits to our table to check-in.
The Square brings a relaxed dining experience to the middle of Henley, with great food and professional service. Very much recommended. read more
