Have visited this restaurant many times over the years, but I was disappointed this time and did not enjoy the experience as much as previously. We visited with friends all of whom were having the matched wines. Husband and I chose not to, and were offered drinks as soon as we sat down. Everyone else was not offered a drink and had to wait until their 3rd course which had paired wines. Extraordinary. I had champagne, but the glasses were a miserly 100 ml. Everyone knows that a 750 ml bottle of champagne yields 6 glasses at 125 ml, so to pour only 100 ml and charge £15 per glass is very mean. We were served the bread with a bit of hummus, but no plates. The bread was very oily (a focaccia I think). The rest of the food, as usual, was absolutely fantastic. But be under no illusion about the cheese course: when the menu says 'tasting of British cheeses' you cannot actually choose the cheese you have. I don't like soft cheeses. The waitress told me there were no hard cheeses, only soft ones, and one blue cheese. So I ended up with one 'blue' cheese but it was very mild and not a Roquefort/Stilton/St Augur. The final course, treacle & ginger with honey truffles included a nice sorbet and macaroon but the treacle sponge was far too heavy and cloying. It was inconsistent with the rest of the meal and most of us did not enjoy it. Our bill was nearly £300 for 2, without tip/service charge, and when I'm paying that sort of money I rather expect perfection. This was lacking on the night in question, I am sorry to say. I've given only 3 stars because I can't say it was very good. There is a reason this restaurant has lost its Michelin star.Thank you LauranWe have now revised your complaints, once again thank you for your comments Some of your points as you are aware and not quite the truth are they? We clearly state that we pour our aged Louis Roederer Champagne in 100ml glasses, you seemed quite happy as you had three glasses. Your guests declined champagne as they were having the 6 matched wines with their menu, all served in 100ml measures besides the dessert wine which is served as 50ml. Their first wine was served with the first starter, Diver Caught Orkney Scallop, we do not match wines to the amuse Bouche as this would take consumption to over one bottle 750ml per person. You were served bread on a sharing plate with three dips, humus as you say but also cods roe and butter bean with truffles. The bread is made twice a day and on Saturday it was Focaccio, each loaf is made with 250ml of extra virgin olive oil. We offer 5 cheeses on the "tasting of British Cheeses" from a choice of at least 9, we do not have hard such as Cheddar, but do offer semi hard such as Keltic Gold, in 20 years of running the restaurant we are rarely asked for hard cheeses as most guests prefer, soft , cured or semi hard. You declined all cheeses except the blue, preferring the more firm of two choices, Two Hoots. You listed 3 French Cheeses, we don't serve French Cheeses on our "tasting of British Cheeses" You were charged just for this portion not for a tasting plate. I note your comment on the treacle tart, and will certainly adjust this, if it needs to beYour bill at £300 for two although as you say it did not include tip/Services4tourism it did include the 8 beers your husband had, your numerous glasses of champagne and your port ..... Michelin rate on food only not wine measures or hard cheeses we serve.

We were huge advocates of this place from the very first day. So many changes in staff and the chef teams have meant that, over the years, food and service became unreliable. We visited last night for the first time in about 4 years. Service was great and the food was very good. I really hope this continues as Newbury is desperate for this to be brilliant again.

Myself and my partner visited here the initial thought was just wow itâs a lovely building very nice inside and out! Greeted by very friendly staff. We chose to sit outside and we werenât disappointed the garden was beautiful and well set out with light music in the background. We had read a few reviews before about portion sizes but went ahead anyway and true to others words they were huge. My partner had a cheese and mushroom roll and I went for the chicken goujons which my partner had to help me finish. Onto the main my partner had a wonderful steak which he thoroughly enjoyed, I had the Thai chicken burger and wow it was amazing it looked and tasted fantastic! Pudding was a do we or donât we as we were quite full by this point. Other diners were having pudding and my partner said I donât care how full we are we have to have a pudding! He had a cheesecake and I had Eton mess and they were equally as lovely as the rest of the meal.

It's not easy appeasing a family for 'a nice night out', especially when there are moderate to severe gluten allergies among us. Well not here, almost exactly the same menu, not overpriced & cooked separately. The meal was delicious, the service was fantastic & everyone really enjoyed their food.. but we couldn't manage dessert! (this time)

4 of us had lunch here yesterday and I am not normally a reviewer, but feel I have to on this occasion! Everything was simply fabulous from the service, wine and the superb food. The chef certainly delivers on both flavour and presentation and we loved everything on our plates. We have now booked to go again next month.Thanks to a great team.

We had booked during lunchtime for dinner and were greeted by a very friendly restaurant manager (?) who had taken our booking, he remembered I was gluten free and we got a nice table by the window and pizza oven! (much cooler than you might imagine!).We shared three starters between us which was excessive! the portions were quite generous especially the tomato bruschetta. The main courses were equally good, the veal was a little over cooked for me (a personal preference perhaps) but the flavour was exceptional and the sardine pasta was really yummy - desserts were a little disappointing but we didn't really need them. We did feel a little rushed, but i guess we could have asked them to slow the service down a bit..... the really sad bit was the tepid wine and lemoncello, we had to get ice for the wine and the lemoncello (tricky in those little glasses!). HOWEVER; this wouldn't stop us going again - we'll just ask for ice from the very beginning!

Looking for a venue where my family and small group of close friends could celebrate my wifeâs surprise birthday party was a challenge. It had to be somewhere special. Then I remembered the Dew Pond restaurant and delightful evenings weâve spent there in the past. Keith, the owner, was very helpful and accommodating in assisting me with the arrangements for my party of 15. Having agreed the date, we discussed the menu and I was recommended suitable wines for the dinner. Upon arrival, our guests were offered drinks (fabulous selection of gin) in the garden overlooking fields with sheep and glorious views, where they gathered for my wifeâs arrival. The surprise was a complete success thanks to the staff at the Dew Pond. Once the greetings had been completed the dinner was served which included a chef appetizer of pea puree followed by oak smoked salmon that immediately received praise from all and set the scene for a sumptuous main course of saddle of Hampshire lamb. The recommended wines complimented the meal superbly and by the time the coffee and chocolates arrived everyone mentioned how keen they were to return after a most enjoyable meal in glorious surroundings looked after by an attentive staff. Thank you Dew Pond, my wife and I look forward to our next visit.

We had a Lovely Meal at H&Jâs and I can understand the positive reviews as the restaurant offers a nice cosy atmosphere, with a bit of class. The Food is very nice, the Service excellent and the Ambience is fun. My only complaint was that my fish was a touch overcooked which was a shame, but the rest of the menu was very good. Joe is a brilliant host and really makes dining there a pleasure. Thanks H&J
