The best restaurants in Wokingham Without Wokingham South East

Family run business, always welcoming and a very good atmosphere. Excellent food and service, Dog Friendly (our Beagles always enjoy their visit). Highly recommend visiting, enjoy. Also a good walk in the woods available to work off a great meal. Has become a regular weekly visit for us.

You can’t beat this place. A proper Italian ambiance from the style and the decor as you come in. The menu is a feast, such a wide offering in contemporary Italian food surely covering the taste requirements of anyone. The problem is what to choose because everything sounds so good. We had a variety of starter dishes all of which were beautifully presented and served promptly. The main course we had included super house pasta, a lovely baked tender chicken dish, and the mouth watering Fegato (liver). Desert is a real treat and is still presented on the traditional desert trolley- that I remember at this restaurant for the last 30 years but you can’t deny how it whets the appetite when you see all the proper home made deserts on show. The wine list is extensive and well varied Finally the staff- well they are well trained clearly and extremely professional in how they serve and deliver the food with linen napkins to boot. However, September the clearly well drilled quick and smart service they are approachable and engaging with customers laughing and joking appropriately making a wonderful atmosphere. There is nothing you could possibly want they don’t have at this restaurant and is equally wonderful for a couple or For bigger groups. As my 90 year old father (who’s been coming for 30 years’ said after this visit- they haven’t let any of their high standards drop. Brilliant thank you and well done

Work Christmas evening meal. Very warm welcome and great staff. Traditional pub food, scampi, ham egg & chips, lamb, guineafowl, cottage pie. Veggie option of mushroom, leek & lentil cottage pie was very tasty. Came with carrots and brocoli on the side which were disappointing. Carrots scraped, brocoli yellowing and on the turn so didn't eat. Honey Hill is a very quiet, dark country road and the pub is about half way down. It has a large carpark. It's in a residential area not near anything else.

We had a pre-reserved table for lunch on a children's day out but when we were seated we were told that the wait for food was 1 hour! Obviously children can't wait that long for food and so we had to abandon the table and find somewhere else to eat on a saturday lunch with no notice, which of course totally wrecked a carefully timetabled day.

Been meaning to try out the new Squire's Café for some time and my husband and I finally made it on Easter Saturday. We were met by a woman at the entrance of the café who said "Can I help you? I thought it was obvious that we were there for a drink and possibly something to eat. We got shown to a table in the near empty café and the woman who greeted us left us with a menu although we had already said that we only wanted a tea and a coffee. My husband ordered a decaf coffee latte which he said was not as good as the one he has in Nero's. My Birchall Mao Feng green tea was a teabag served in a teapot and was tasteless. Not a patch on other makes of Mao Feng green tea I've had and not as good as the green tea I get in Nero's or Starbucks. Halfway through our drinks a waitress came and asked us if we would like anything to eat which we didn't. Perhaps she thought we might change our minds. When we were finished we looked around to see where we could pay and finally managed to catch the eye of the woman who greeted us. She came with a tablet and proceeded to tap the screen a number of times and eventually came up with a total which she showed my husband and offered the the card payment device. Seemed like a laborious process for a couple of drinks! So we were very disappointed with the café experience and will not be going back other than for plants which they appear to have a great selection of.

Went in with high expectations. Really disappointed….. Service was terrible, food took ages to come. We ordered a flatbread, a salad, a bottled water and a Cappuccino. The coffee was barely strong enough, there was no ice for the water, the flatbread was tiny, over toasted, so more like a wafer , and the Waitress dropped half of the bread on the table. To be fair, the sandwich filling and salad were as you may expect, but it was too small, and simply not good enough for £21.
