So delicious! The inside of the restaurant feels ancient. I like the feel. There were plenty of people around us that were just enjoying beers and a snack. It probably took us 15 minutes to walk here from Windsor Castle. Order at the bar, and they will bring you your food. The burger was legit good too.

Well, maybe it isn't right to review the first and only brewery I have visited in the U.K. but I am…read morenot sure how it gets better so here we go. The beer here is different because the water has a mineral content not found anywhere else in Britain, yet, anyway. They seem to be constantly experimenting, which is what my American palate loves. They make seasonal brews and a different beer every month. I tasted one of their beers at the Coach the night before so I figured I had to visit the next day. You are allowed up to two pints to taste free. Wow. I think that is generous but perhaps it is common in the U.K. In any case, I only had about a pint total, and tasted three beers. The Rebellion Lager, Rebellion IPA, (these two I think are the basic beers which are brewed all year) and the Virtuoso. The Virtuoso is an amber ale brewed in November. All were great. If you join their club, everything is discounted and you get to attend club events. The store where you taste is full of not just their beer but also random wines from around the world which they will select and offer by the mixed case. Great holiday gift idea! I walked two miles to visit the brewery and it was worth it.

Housed in some very old farm buildings, this working brewery produces some jolly fine ales such as T.E.A. (Traditional English Ale) and Fresh Spring. There are 11 different varieties produced here. They regularly do tours of their operations which take less than two hours. With all the samples you'll likely have, best arrange transport home! The brewery shop upstairs is literally packed to the oaken rafters with hundreds of bottled beers, not only from Hogs Back but also a large range of other breweries from far and wide. I might have done a short 'happy dance' when I first saw it all. You can also buy a range of other Hogs Back products such as beer gift sets and memorabilia such as glassware and clothing. Tip: the brewery tour days/times can be flexible to suit individual group requirements. It costs £12.50 per person. Tip: there is free home delivery for all online orders over £40.

The Battersea area is just a cool area! To understand it you got to know a little history. From the…read more1930s to 1980s, Battersea Power Station was a working powerstation that fueled places like the Houses of Parliament and Buckingham Palace. If you are a Pink Floyd fan, you will recognize it the iconic chimneys from the cover of Pink Floyd's 1977 album Animals. Battersea Brewery is located at the renovated Battersea Power Station. They have really good craft beer. One in particular that I like is the Banana in Pajamas. They have snacks you can buy. For example bags of crisps as well as the serve British bites such as Toasties and sausage rolls. They also have indoor and outdoor seating.

The Death by Carribean Chocolate Cake is what I had and it lived up to it's namesake perfectly. An Imperial Double Milk Stout is what we had some of and we simply loved it!

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.
