Biggles Restaurant in South Bucks

Had the most amazing experience here. Hubby took me here as it was part of our anniversary celebration, and when we arrived I wasn’t impressed much. It looked like a house. But was I proved wrong! An amazing meal, warm and welcoming service and atmosphere. I ordered garlic mushrooms for starters, which came in a lovely, creamy sauce and were delicious. I had grilled salmon and vegetables for mains. When I ordered I thought it wouldn’t be enough to fill me, but again I was proved wrong. There were big portions and plenty of flavour. And had a huge slice of cheesecake to finish it off. Delicious meal with a continental flair. Loved the meal and would definitely go back if in the area again.

Lovely food, attentive and friendly service-and a set menu of incredible value.

This is our go-to place for special occasions. Always had a good experience and friendly staff.

Bit quiet when we were there early on a friday night. Very good and friendly service. Food could have been tastier, perhaps they should reduce the range of fish on the menu and have a fresh fish of the day.

Simply delicious. Excellent service and pleasant staff. Highly recommend They serve Poretti beer, too, so what more does one need ?

This is a lovely, quaint restaurant situated by a small airfield in Denham. The inside is a little dated, but this really adds to the charm, especially with the soft music in the background. The food was excellent and served by delightful waiting staff. I went with my wife, and we had Gambas Al Ajillo, Serrano Ham with Melon, Chicken Kiev, and Sirloin Steak Bordelaise. All the food was excellent with perfectly balanced flavours. The waiter suggested the Bordelaise sauce with the steak, and it was lovely. I will be visiting again very soon.

This is a lovely restaurant. In a nice way it is like stepping back in time. The service is excellent and the food delicious and generous. Tables quite closely placed due to size of the property so not too intimate but would not stop visiting many times in the future

I had an amazing night. Food, atmosphere, staff were brilliant.

Spectacular, it feels like being among incredible friends but above all kindness, courtesy and a lot of professionalism....congratulations!!!!!!

Great atmosphere, brilliant food and attentive staff.Will be back soon.😁😁😁😁

Outstanding food, excellent service can't do enough for you, fantastic atmosphere. Thank you.

Best meal that we have had in a long time. Food and service was amazing, nothing was too much trouble.

The food was amazing! The best steak ive had in a long while!! Great service, friendly cheerful and helpful with great food, certainly worth a visit!

What a find will be going back for sure👍👍

What a gem of a restaurant this is. They have been here for over 30 years and I can see why. I had lunch with a lovely friend and it was the first time I have been here. Don't miss this lovely place. The food, ambience and service was outstanding. We had a lovely lunch and overlooking the aerodrome. Beautiful surrounding area and well worth a visit. What a find and thank you so much for finding us a table as we did not make a reservation.

The two menus offer a wide selection, and the food is excellent. The desserts are also great as is the service. Staff are courteous and friendly. Would certainly recommend.

This restaurant exists in a time warp! Though (or maybe because) popular with diners of a certain age the food is a throwback to the 60's and 70's, typically over-rich with lots of cream and butter. My piri piri chicken was totally inauthentic, just a piece of roast chicken breast covered in a thick mildly spiced tomato sauce. Service was offhand and lacking any continental charm.

Rather quirky but very busy which says it all really! Excellent quality of food with a large menu to choose from. Good service too. Recommend you book.

Excellent food and great service. Very friendly and welcoming

No nonsense spot for a family meal. White table cloths and a solid classic old timey British menu / dessert trolley, served by Italian suited and booted waiters. A “take your grandma” kindof place

Wonderful food and very good choice available. Old style dining but very appealing

Really nice restaurant and the staff are lovely people

Haven’t been for a while but wasn’t disappointed. Service great food was exceptional couldn’t fault a thing. Will be returning soon .

I will pre-empt this with I went to Biggles because of the great reviews I saw and I think it helps if you're a regular... Menu and atmosphere were transplanted out of the 80s and while my roast was good, my dining partner's food was average. We had the Sunday 3 course menu. Deep fried mushrooms were soggy and the prawn cocktail was ok Pork roast was good and they made allowances for my dairy intolerance, grilled salmon passable Then dessert trolley, only fruit for the dairy afflicted. And profiteroles for my partner, she enjoyed those. The service was mixed, care and attention from some of the staff, not from others, like not telling us the contents of the dessert trolley and just leaving silence for us to ask what each thing was. Which was done for others. Also, silver service standard from some staff, just tipping salvers onto your plate from others. Our coats were taken at the beginning but we had to find them on our way out. Interesting experience, I'm personally not going to return.

Wonderful Sunday lunch, especially the roast beef and roast lamb. Very friendly and attentive waiters, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian, quite continental!

Nice to meet up again with former work colleagues there. Enjoyed the food very much and the lovely retro feel to Biggles.

A very different but interesting establishment. A difficult place to locate in the dark without satnav but when you arrive you are well rewarded with a friendly greeting and good food in a convivial atmosphere. The menu choice is impressive and cannot fail to appeal so walk in, drive in, or even fly in, for a very jolly experience.

Excellent Service good quality food reasonable price even cooked my food at the table. Then for afters the dessert trolly comes around with a selection of home made desserts.and a great view of the small aeroplanes If there’s any questions I can help out with in regard to the area in general don’t hesitate to ask and I’ll try my best to help you out.

Lovely Spanish style restaurant on the fringe of Denham Aérodrome, lots of nice little planes to see. Nice staff bring the well prepared food as the cool country air breezes through the restaurant. You can eat for less it's true, but this is like Spain without the horrible airport or the blistering heat of August; well worth the extra dineros.

Been numerous times, still an enjoyable meal out.

Attended a family lunch this Sunday gone. Great old school type restaurant, waiters in bowties looking very smart, extensive menu, nothing fancy, simply well cooked food. Fantastic location next to the aerodrome

We’ve been coming to Biggles as an extended family for over 30 years. It’s a fantastic restaurant that does amazing food and great service. The memories that my family have are unforgettable. We always look forward to going to Biggles!

Very old school friendly pub/restaurant. Don't expect much veggie friendly food and it is like something straight out of a 70's sitcom but thats its charm.

Arrive by plane or car - or more realistically time machine as you step back into the 80s. Classic British and European fare cooked well with exceptional and attentive service. Can’t beat this place if you like traditional food done well.

Very nice food. Plus very nice staff. Just go and have a meal there.

1st visit. Great food, good service and very friendly. Just a bit on the warm side.

Excellent food and wonderful service ! The waiters were friendly and attentive. I would have no hesitation in going back to this charming restaurant !

An absolute throw back of impeccable service and good food.

Lovely meal, excellent service and nice homely feel

A lovely Sunday lunch at Biggles. Out first visit and certainly will NOT be our last. Large portions and very tasty.

Great food and good location, have been going there for over 40 years to celebrate special occasions.

Was our first time here and will be going back. Enjoyed all the food, plenty of choice. Food was lovely and hot when served. Would recommend a visit.

All at the superlative !!! Thank you !!!

Had a nice lunch the other week. Lovely staff, food and location. Great place to go and watch the aircraft when you sit outside.

Rather sad in that we have been coming to Biggles for many years (at least 3 times a year) Our last visit was rather disappointing in that the starter, a prawn cocktail, the sauce was very bland & the Sunday roast beef came already served with gravey. Had better at an average carvery. The choice of desserts no longer came on a trolley and were rather disappointing

Does feel like a step back to the 70s and 80s in terms of ambience - music was a mix of 10cc, The Bee Gees and Motown classics. The aviation pictures are of RAF's Cold War might. Menu includes prawn cocktail, melon, beef stroganoff, and other Delia classics. The waiting staff (I'm guessing Spainish as Estrella Galicia was the best beer choice on the menu) are perfectly attentive. And the food was delicious. Don't be put off by the look, the grub is great.

Lovely restaurant, ticked all the boxes for me...

Absolutely great little restaurant. Fantastic choice of food to cater for all, excellent service from their very attentive staff who made us feel very welcome. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Our daughter booked this for Easter Sunday. Was looking forward to having a meal. I had the beef Wellington. The steak inside was cooked to perfection but just sliced mushrooms on top, which was a letdown. The duck was so so. Our daughters meal of fish looked ok , son in law steak looked so so. Our grandchildren had the Sunday roast which also looked reasonably ok, but the meat was already in a gravy. Did that mean it was reheated ? There was no choice of different vegetables, so only had what would be served on a Sunday. I would have preferred a choice. Biggest let down was the fact that the children paid full price, not a children's menu. Because our daughter was paying and she did not want to make a scene, i just kept quiet. Would not recommend

Just loved everything about it, food was amazing, service was very good and was the atmosphere, would definitely recommend it here

Enjoyed two lunches in this popular restaurant but dinner recently was not a pleasant experience. A long wait for mediocre food, poor presentation and unfriendly service in a crowded restaurant. Will stick to the Italian in the village.

Excellent food presentation and service

First class on everything will be going back soon

Excellent as usual. Staff extremely friendly and helpful

Exceptional experience, like going on holiday to a taverna in 80's Spain. Extremely good service from very experienced staff. Its so hard to pick from the menu as it all looks so good and everything I have ever had has been lovely.

We have been going to this restaurant at least once a month. The last time we went there we did not pay the service charge because the waiter who served us was very rude. He threw the basket of bread in the middle of the table. My companion and I looked at him but did not say a word to him. When he brought the food he just dumped it on the table. I had to ask him to kindly remove the bone from the fish. He eventually did it saying to me that he didn't know that I didn't eat bones. I found this very insulting. So because of this I did not pay his tip which was optional. He then went and told his colleague that I refused to pay the tip. When I was leaving to go to my car he followed me shouting at my husband and asking my husband for the tip that I did not pay. My husband just replied to him that the tip was optional he didn't want to go into any details as we were already very disappointed with the service. He then carried on shouting at us harassing him even more. When we started the car to drive off he told us never to go back to Biggles Restaurant. We found this behaviour very unbecoming and uncalled for. This was basiccally an attack on us.

A lovely experience and looking forward to going back again

Very friendly staff and food is excellent

Amazing food and service. Home cooked food and wonderful puddings. Lovely location too. would recommend highly

My first visit to Biggles and I must say the service and food was great!

Lovely food with delicious vegetables however over priced . Good location but only for a special occasion

Tasty food, great atmosphere - I’ve felt like I’ve moved to 1980 where hospitality used to be on different level, overall very pleasant experience

Work lunch. The place is still holding on to its traditions. Still works for some as its still busy for a lunch service.

Wonderful meal and friendly attentive service , worth every penny , made us feel very special , highly recommended, thank you

We enjoyed a fantastic evening at this restaurant. We were a group of 8 friends and each of us were delighted with our food choices. The Tournedos Biggles with port and Stilton sauce is highly recommended as is the Cardinal Sole. I chose the Scampi in Love which is cooked and flambeed at your tabke - delicious! Starters and desserts were all delicious and we can recommend the oranges in Grand Marnier and the creme brulee ! The service was first class. The staff were very professional and efficient and they were also great fun with a great sense of humour! Great ambience - my only thought is that the decor is a little dated and tired which may be part of the appeal for some.

Wonderful evening out with good friends. A warm welcome, a first class menu and food to match rounded off by brilliant service. All together a great night out.

We had dinner here last night last night after a friends recommendation and we weren't disappointed. The warm welcome we received when we arrived was followed by the most amazing food, freshly cooked to order. The menu was varied with so much to choose from it was hard to know what to have. The staff were very friendly and the service was outstanding. We'll definitely be back. Would highly recommend.

Wasn't sure when booked but all good Shall certainly look forward to visiting again.

It's wonderfully old school, always slightly chaotic but that makes it brilliant, food very nice, choose your desserts from the trolley. All in all a very nice place to visit

Quaint. Homely. A hidden treasure in Denham where the staff remember your name. Simple yet elegant menu with home made deserts to die for.

Great Service, highly recommend

Food was very good and also the service staff.

Fabulous food and staff are briliant

Great location for a special occasion. They really know how to look after a large group. The food is really good and great service. Classic dessert trolley is amazing.

Loved it: set lunch for 4, with a good, varied menu at a reasonable price, excellent service and cosy surroundings, reminiscent of restaurants I visited with my parents! Such a pleasant change from the usual bland pubs and chains.

Biggles is a real gem in an already tranquil and beautiful setting. The hosts and servers were good for a laugh and really tentative. The food was beautiful, incredibly flavoursome and served table side so very hot and fresh.

Old fashioned proper restaurant. Sunday roast was amazing, with all the trimmings, very large portions too The Tirimasu for desert was a mountain to say the least. We'll be back!

We had a very friendly welcome and were made to feel at home. The a la carte menu is huge so plenty of choice and the menu of the day had a great choice to. The Biggles steak is very good indeed as was the selection of vegetables. Service was efficient and friendly. We had a good lunch!

First time visiting, had fish which was delicious, made to feel very welcome

Food average service average Price average

Friendly staff, but some were looking stressed as we went on Sunday and it was very busy. Food was good, Sunday Roast was okay but vegetables were average. We were promised broccoli and cauliflower but got carrots and beans. Dover sole was lovely, so we're deserts. However it is too expensive for what it is.

Absolutely fantastic venue. Food was amazing. Setting was perfect. We will be back

Cannot fault the food it was lovely, if a touch salty for my taste. It is also a little on the pricey side. What really lets Biggles down so far as I am concerned is the level of comfort. Because it is such a small space, to maximise revenue they have packed too many tables in there and they are crammed so close together. The ceiling is quite low so the sound does not seem to dissipate and at times it was so noisy I had to shout across the table to my dining companion. Another problem was the heat. This evening it was quite humid and because of the lack of air, the sweat was pouring off of me. Eventually a couple of windows were opened, but they should have done that about 4.00pm to get some air circulating, rather than wait until 8.30 ! Finally, the chairs were so unforgiving, my rear end has not been so uncomfortable since my schooldays. I have sat in hospital waiting rooms where the levels of comfort are higher. I have given Biggles 3 stars, because to give it just two would be somewhat churlish. if i were marking out of ten it would just about make five . The food would score 8/10 but the comfort level struggles to reach 2/10. So would i rush back. If proper tables were set up wuth comfortable chairs outside, or they invested in air conditioning or at least a few fans, then perhaps I would, but as it is now, I dont think so. I also think it is very pricey for what it is

Not sure why we haven't returned sooner! Great food, lovely atmosphere and good service. Fab location too!

Came here for my birthday for lunch. Staff are really friendly and attentive. Food was delicious and plenty of choice. Great position on edge of air field.

Went for lunch with my Father and chose Set Menu. Good choices and reasonable price. Good service by friendly waiter's.

Have been before on several occasions. This time the food was still good, but our waiter was surly and not very welcoming. The other staff were friendly and the atmosphere, other than our waiter, was friendly.

Very good food and staff friendly as always. Been there for many years may it continue. Special birthday 90th was great 👍

Proper old-school setup. The food and service here is amazing. This was our first time but we will return!

Excellent Sunday lunch enjoyed by all the family.

The most 1980's restaurant and it was excellent

A great place, staff and food wonderful. Irish coffee excellent. In the many years of going there we've not been disappointed.

Fantastic, attentive, friendly service. Nice food. Nice location. Just don't go on your diet day! :)

We were invited to lunch by friends. What a surprise. Excellent service great food no wonder it was busy. Highly recommended.

Really lovely place, staff exceptional and food is amazing. Very impressed 😁

Excellent food, highly recommended. A bit like stepping back in time but lovely.

Had a fantastic night with family for my dad's birthday! Look forward to the next time.
