The Inn West End

Housed within a luxurious 18th-century property, itself surrounded by 246 acres of beautiful grounds, this elegant restaurant feels like a truly special place. Sporting golden, almost autumnal décor on the ground floor of the Coworth Park hotel, the restaurant is a stage for the eponymous chef to showcase a roll-call of superb British produce. His technically skilled, beautifully presented dishes have a lightness of touch, while also displaying real depth and finesse. The signature chocolate dessert delivers on its promise, ending your visit on a euphoric note.

There’s a degree of opulence to this popular restaurant housed inside a whitewashed building. The striking dark green interior features glitzy rose gold panelling and distinctive tiling, ensuring the dining room feels a little bit special. Modern European dishes make use of effective, well-judged flavour combinations and there’s an assured level of technique in the cooking. Sit in the main room overlooking the fire pit or in the airy conservatory, while the smooth service team look after you with aplomb.

Hidden away down twisting country roads in an affluent part of Old Windsor, this charmingly run pub is a quirky, pretty operation where the food is given pride of place. The location – a tranquil spot on the edge of Windsor Great Park – is a hunting area, so expect plenty of local game on the menu in season, such as venison from the Park itself. The experienced chef crafts his ingredients into complex, attractively presented dishes, with the Bar Menu offering lighter and simpler options. Do look out for the cheese trolley, which is bursting with prime British options.
