Came here with a friend following a recommendation from the staff (we work at the pub down the road) and we couldn't have been more impressed! The staff were very friendly and attentive and the food was absolutely amazing! We both had the lamb for our mains and it was cooked to perfection!
It was the first time we'd been here even though we are local but we will definitely be coming back in the future - Thank you :)

Having had a great morning at the Motor Museum, I parked up in the village and went in search of lunch. I was greeted and shown a table, only one other table was occupied at this point. I was offered water for the table and then somebody came and took my order. A few minutes later he returned to inform me that food would be at least 30 minutes due to a buffet taking place across the way. Now surely when I arrived all of the staff knew there was a large buffet in progress, particularly given I had a window seat and there certainly wasn't a sudden onslaught of people in the other part of the building! Why on earth didn't somebody tell me this prior to taking me to a seat? It was already nearly 1pm and I had had an early breakfast so I had to go somewhere else for some lunch. I won't be back during my week's stay that's for sure. Quite clearly my face didn't fit! I felt as though I had arrived at Fawlty Towers quite frankly.

Reviewed By Allan B

We visited The Terrace restaurant at the Montagu arms on a quiet Friday night in January. We were met with menus and sat by the log fire to make our choice. We couldn’t help ourselves and chose the 7 course tasting menu with a flight of classic wines. I hope the restaurant has it’s Michelin Star returned because they undoubtedly deserve it. Each course tasted incredible. The accompanying wine choice was eclectic but enhanced the flavour of the food. All in all the service, ambience and food were all so far beyond my expectations that I can only suggest you try it for yourselves.

We used to visit this pub quite a lot, so found the sudden change from above average food to very ordinary 'pub grub' extremely disappointing. The pate starter was ok, but my linguine dish appeared to have none of the reputed smoked salmon and only a few rubbery prawns. While my other half's lamb burger was at best, uninspiring. I also felt cold and wasn't much cheered by a near empty pub on a Friday evening.

We decided to visit here based on its reviews - suffice to say we were not disappointed! The waitress was very friendly and helpful in dealing with our requests. My tuna and cheese melt hit the spot! My only criticism was the smell of cleaning product when we first walked in - not overpowering but noticeable. This could of course have just been bad timing if all the tables had just been cleaned!

Reviewed By stalwart - Berkshire, United Kingdom

Excellent Thai food. Good portions. Fresh, hot , delicious food - although the restaurant was busy, the service was attentive and food arrived in quick time.
I complained of the draught beer not being cold and returned it- so it was duly taken off the bill.
Red curry, green curry, pad thai, chicken satay all were excellent. Not to be missed if you are in the area. Highly recommended.
