The Dew Drop Inn in Windsor and Maidenhead

Absolutely delicious food, good beer and a friendly welcome - what more could you want. We had the eel and pate starters followed by the venison pie for our mains. I wish that we had room for dessert - next time... Can very highly recommend

So disappointed with what I had hoped to be something special from a chef with a great reputation. Inexperienced staff. Restricted menu options and vegetarian options were “NO… you should have called in advance “… what about asking when you receive the booking. Wine menu tiny. Portions pathetic. Quality of food average and way overpriced. Glassware, cutlery and plates all basic… pudding options were ok but flapjack instead of crackers with cheese was very odd and did not work. So expensive for what was a very poor quality of service and food.

Excellent food, friendly and efficient service, great location. What more can you ask for? Not the cheapest, but in my experience you get what you pay for.

Went here recently, only to find that my trousers did not fit. To my surprise I was allowed to stay and had a wonderful time walking around tea bagging unsuspecting diners on their desert course.

Once upon a time there was a film director turned restaurant critic named Michael Winner. When he REALLY liked somewhere, he’d describe it as “Triple Historic.” I feel that he would really have liked the Dew Drop. My wife is vegan 🥗. She is also a foodie. They don’t have to be mutually exclusive. When we booked for Mother’s Day my daughter let them know her mum was vegan. No problem. The most phenomenal pithivier was prepared. The crab starter was amazing. Expectedly prepared and such balanced flavours. I had the most delicious lamb. Cooked to perfection and served with generous amounts of fab roast potatoes, veg and cauliflower cheese to end all cauliflower cheeses! The front of house staff are all lovely and lunch service was expertly paced. Thanks all. We will be back.

Super friendly staff, great service and collection of beers. Special thanks to Jack! Would definitely recommend if in or around Summertown.

Very expensive for a country type pub/restaurant £12 for a small glass of wine???? Small country pub with expensive London + prices . Disappointed as the price didn’t reflect the quality of the drinks or ambiance

My visit to this delightful country pub simply could not have been more disappointing. My wife and I had so looked forward to visiting it, and nothing would have given me more pleasure than to give it a positive review - but sadly that was not to be. We had first visited this beautifully positioned pub some 12 - 18 months ago, and had been disappointed to find that it was at that time closed due to refurbishment. That's life. Not a problem. Maybe next time. On our second visit, in February 2024, we made a round trip of 40 miles to sample its wares and standard of hospitality. Before setting off we consulted Google and ascertained that it was open until 3.00 p.m. We arrived at 2.35 p.m., closely followed by eight cyclists who had tackled and overcome a reasonably difficult and tiring hill climb in order to get to the pub (and who were consequently all gasping for a drink). We were all disappointed. The bar had apparently closed 5 minutes before our arrival, at 2.30. Despite our pleading, there was no way in the world that the owner/chef was willing to give us a drink, even if we consumed it outside the pub, in the garden. The owner/chef is best described as 'a round peg in a square hole' - he should not be working in the hospitality industry. I could not agree more with previous reviewers - walkers, cyclists and drinkers receive a frosty welcome - only well-heeled diners are welcome at this establishment. What a great shame! In my personal opinion, the owner/chef is 'cutting off his nose to spite his face'. Sadly, wild horses will not drive me back.

Pay the Dew Drop a visit and I believe you won’t be disappointed. A lovely restaurant all round, setting , food and service.

In the enchanted forest of Hurley lies the marzipan Pub that is the Dew Drop Inn. Arrived on foot we did, and with our slippers in our pockets, because of the forewarned mud and flooding around and about. A fire blazes in the bar and the smell of good cooking are the comforting smells in this tiny pub. Freshly made bread, really nicely presented starters, followed by properly cooked, hot clean main course’s with really lovely sauces. Sunday lunch at its best. Dessert, the most gooey Honey Pudding with ice cream and a wafer kind of biscuit truly lovely. Wine, Pinot Noir, okay £22, strong Coffee Macaroon, Madeleine and Canele lovely touch. Service from young staff in this day and age of mediocrity, was, I kid not absolutely excellent. Dad ( Simon Bonwick ) is the Chef and a proud, passionate one at that. The Dew Drop is worth the journey and the awards heaped on it will surely keep on flooding in we guess.

Our recent Sunday lunch here was most likely the very, very best we have eaten. The vegetables superb, fresh, buttered nice and soft too. Roast potatoes and Yorkshire Puddings wonderful no after thoughts here. Beef truly and quite impossibly in a class of its own. The family service impeccable and preemptive at all times, smiley, jovial, happy and fun! It was on this Sunday extremely busy, however the waiter and waitresses held their nerve and coped well, after one table charge off without paying. Well then how exciting this old Pub is these days. No other Pub like it around, thoroughly recommend.

As you can see from the most recent review they were expecting a complaint. I should say that I was one of the diners involved in the “outburst” and we were the last customers to leave the dining area so the observations made in the review are confusing. Also at no point did we refuse to pay the bill. This is not about money. My companion found her lamb rather chewy and as such didn’t finish the majority of her dish. We mentioned this to the waiter who cleared our plates and mentioned it again when presented with our bill. We had a conversation with the waitress who turned out to be the chef’s daughter. We suggested that the lamb might be removed from the bill since it hadn’t been eaten. She said she would go and speak to her Dad. What occurred next will sound made up but I assure you this is what happened. The chef approached our table, banged both fists on the table and said the following: “You have three options. 1, you pay the bill. 2, we sort this out in the car park. (Which I took to mean he wanted to fight us over the bill). 3, I’ll call the police”. This was both aggressive and intimidating as he loomed over the table in a by now empty dining room. After this he went away and I stood up to address one of his staff. I was shaking with adrenaline and had no idea what might happen next. The chef (Simon Bonwick) then reappeared and said words to the effect of ‘I think it’s time for you to leave’. When we did try to leave we found the exit had been bolted shut which considering the door is also a fire escape is concerning. The waiter unbolted the door for us and we duly left. Shocked, angry and grateful for the relative safety of our car.

It's not often you find a gem and less often you witness an outburst by a disgruntled customer. Firstly I want to record our personal experience which I have to say was first class on every level. Not something I take for granted these days having been disappointed with some of our experiences in restaurants with a much higher price tag. My daughter and I said exactly the same at the time of booking so I suggest you read the intro before you book then in doing so you are clear on your responsibility as well as the restaurant stating what they can deliver. I live reasonably locally and those that I spoke to in person all said the same. Have a varied palette and enjoy being taken on a culinary ride and you won't be disappointed. This in mind as a pre Mother's Day treat my daughter booked and we arrived on time and shown to our table. The menu has a limited choice but I could have ordered everything on the menu as they all sounded delicious. Between the three of us we all had something different and each dish was was a blinder. It would be pointless going over each selection in detail as the likelihood of the same being available is not a guarantee when as a chef you work with what is in season and available locally. The table who clearly were not impressed with their choices decided to up sticks and leave without paying despite eating 2 courses and downing a bottle of wine. Most seasoned diners would not have dealt with the situation in this manner and we felt the chef remained calm and listened to their views. Sadly the situation did not end well and before a negative review is posted I wanted to give a view from the other side. It is a small restaurant so my advice is to book in advance as several members of the public who turned up on he day left disappointed as the restaurant was full.

Absolutely excellent food in a delightful pub. Very attentive staff and super friendly. Phoned ahead to book and they kindly catered for the vegan in our party (very tasty thank you). The others loved the lamb and the deer pie. Desserts were fantastic too. And the special crab starter. Clean plates all round. We’ll definitely be back for more (and lovely walks from the pub).

Popped in for Sunday Roast last weekend. The venison pie was melt-in-the mouth divine, pork roast superb and the wine by the glass was excellent. Fire in hearth, great atmosphere and staff were absolutely lovely. However, for the sharp price, the vegetable portion for two was miserly, more like a portion for one. Also, no one checked on our food, if we'd like more wine, desert menu, etc. We were sat in the 'bar area', which seemed to lack staff attention, as the team seemed to be in the restaurant more. We had to flag them down for anything. Lastly, the coffee was 'meh' for the venue. Just need work on portions, attention and better coffee (!) and next time we'll request seating in the dining room.

Fabulous food and venue, but being charged for vegetables that were suppose to be included left a bitter taste . Serving staff were really good. Being the only ones in the restaurant i was suprised the chef did not come and say hi and socialise at the end at least. We did sit down late but not an excuse to be what seemed to be a moody atmosphere from the kitchen !! Real shame i would have given an exemplary review otherwise. Its not a cheap place but i consider it extremely good quality. It use to be just a pub 48 years ago when we were regular punters and still has the charm but from what i understand drinkers and ramblers etc are not welcome , missing a trick i feel. Hope that business picks up for the gaffer just 7 customers in total this evening.

Lovely supper once again at the DD. The food is delicious and I especially enjoyed my lamb dish with the most superb gravy. The young staff were excellent - so polite and attentive. Good job!

The food is really excellent, beautifully presented and very well prepared, service is very friendly and pricing is good for the quality you get

Warm and cosy with a lovely atmosphere surrounded by great scenery and to top it off amazing service and amazing staff, will definitely be coming again!

We enjoyed a wonderful family dinner in December. The most delicious food served by attentive, enthusiastic young staff in a cosy pub setting. The perfect pub dining experience. We couldn’t have had a better evening. Thank you

Loved my Diner, Excellent menu and Beautiful cute setting in the Woods, Staff Are Lovely and the Food is Always Amazing, Fresh Vibrant.

This used to be a great pub stop for families and dog walkers. Alas no dogs or children under 12 allowed in. Not even able to get a drink in the garden at 2:20pm as they were closing at 3:00! No wonder it looked empty...

New proprietor this year ,food at best is average, service poor as understaffed and overpriced, arrogant chef/Landlord. Run as restaurant walkers, dogs and cyclists NOT welcome. Do not pop in for a drink you are not wlcome.AVOID!!!!

Absolutely fabulous gem of a restaurant. The food was really superb and all served in a beautiful homely dining room by a team that really care about customer service. We went on a freezing cold evening and really appreciated the home comforts and even the...

Simply one of the tastiest meals I've ever eaten. The roast potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. The lamb was tender and slightly pink. The gravy was sublime and on a par with that my late Grandma made when I was a child. A lovely secluded venue with charming staff.

We had a lovely table next to the fire on a cold December day. I enjoyed 'Bills' smoked eel with beetroot and in fact I would say the finest example of eel I have ever eaten. We also devoured a perfect pate en croute. Mains...

Had an amazing exceptional meal. Food was exquisite (pate, beef pie), lovely ambience, fantastic service. Highly recommend, a cut above everywhere else locally.

Well dogs outside service via window. Too posh for crisps and peanuts . Good range of beers . Friendly staff . Whats wrong with some soup or hot potatoes for us plebs in the garden ?

Food was excellent, only found the place by chance, the staff were very attentive and we even got to talk to the chef, well kept beer too

Cosy and welcoming. Great service. Amazing food - you get what you pay for. As a treat it’s an absolute go to. I’ll definitely be back.

We entered the Inn after a brief walk and came into a lovely atmosphere with the log burner glowing and making a warm and welcoming experience. The two waiters were great and served us well throughout with no problems at all. The food was absolutely...

Revisited a couple of months ago with some friends ,very impressed great welcome and fantastic food, congratulations to all responsible for such a memorable visit. Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Have already book a return visit for more of the same!

Once one has traversed through the Hurley Forest and up Pudding Hill you arrive atop an enchanting opening and to where the Dew Drop Inn sits magically, without rhyme or reason. Once inside the feel is like a cosy cabin, cackling fires tickle and the...

Emperors new clothes, and VERY overpriced new clothes they are too. Zero atmosphere on a Friday night. We were rushed through the meal - if the staff had their way, we'd have been in and out within an hour. We had to ask them to...

A friend and I plus small dog went for a walk from The Dew Drop Inn this morning in the hope of returning for lunch. Many websites (eg Brakspears pub trails)) advertise walks from this pub. On getting back to The Dew Drop just after...

Great meal but the price did take me by surprise!

Got there 2.30 on Saturday afternoon to be told just shut waste of time !

Way better on Instagram than real life.

Excellent food & outstanding friendly service. We were made to feel welcome and at home straight away & it just got better and better. The staff were very knowledgeable and passionate about the food, which was original in its composition & impeccably prepared. Just an...

Spectacular food and the specials (crab and sole) were great. Service was stiff and rushed. Felt pressured to leave by 3pm. Is a restaurant and not a pub. We came looking for a relaxed lunch which it wasn’t.

Repeat Lunch!!!! IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW. Still the place everyone wants to be! The Price is rightfully on point for the quality of ingredients and the accurate cooking here and in a sign of these times too … Thoroughly recommend! Walked over with mum. Cheering atmosphere, lovely roaring wood burning stove, top pints of Brakspear in lovely clean glasses, really nice clean Pub, with top quality hand soap in the toilets mum says … Walked up with Mum and Dad for a revisit!!! Positively wonderful atmosphere, packed with happy people, fabulous Roast Beef and lovely Oxford Gold Brakspear. Spotlessly clean, it’s no wonder everyone wants to go here.

What a wonderful restaurant the Dew Drop has become under the leadership of chef Simon Bonwick. Sublime food and wine, flawless service, lovely atmosphere. We will be back! Really, really good, thank you.

Popped in for lunch after a stroll. Sadly no lunchtime menu & didn't want a meal, so opted for starters instead. Asked if there might be a salad to accompany - there wasn't. Upshot was that lunch comprised two beautifully presented, but really rather bland...

Surprisingly empty for a Friday night, therefore very little ambiance. Starters were exquisite, but main course disappointing.

What to say of the luxurious creations of Simon and Charlie Bonwick’s food in the Dew Drop Inn, the quality of which is matched only by his modesty! He doesn't give much away, preferring to let his cooking do all the talking. His Pub occupies...

Opens at 12.30, said Mrs Google. Arrived at 12.40. SHUT. Found a brilliant pub called The Horse and Groom. OPEN.

A delightful place..... Ambiance. .....Welcome. ... Melt in your mouth excellence... Nothing was too much trouble.. Sheer class... A great lunch time reunion for three couples. .one of which came here 50 years ago..!! THANK YOU...x

Magnificent. Priced right for this standard of cuisine. Fair priced wine list too. Relaxed and cosy. I predict that once established they’ll be booking three months in advance. Chef Bonwick and Family have cracked it again! We live an hour away and have already decided to rebook. It’s a little off the beaten track but certainly on track with its’ offering. In every respect.

The ambience and location is fantastic all tucked away in the forest. Service was friendly and superb. Prices not the cheapest but the best dishes (the beef main, crab starter and chocolate dessert) were among the best dishes I’ve eaten anywhere in the world. A...

Turned up at 1.15pm after meetings in Maidenhead. Asked for a lime and soda. No Soda. Asked for a lunch menu. Kitchen already closed . Checked watch it's 1.15pm ! Asked about crisps . Beef or Cheese and Onion. One each I said. Ooops no...

Nice food, ridiculous prices when compared to most of the other local pubs. This pub has a lovely location, and the food is good, but not set your world on fire, which brings me back to the price......

Manage to get a last minute booking, and this place did not disappoint. Good wholesome non pretentious frrecnh cuisine. The crab starter was excellent, and as was the duck that I ordered. The portions were sizeable. The wife had the Sunday roast, and this was...

With some good reviews we had expectations of quality gastropub food this being a double birthday celebration. The evening did not start well when we asked for cocktails and was met with "We don't do cocktails, we don't know how." The menu is limited and...

Wonderful, eclectic venue with truely innovative practiced flavours , Simon is magician! Aldo refreshing menu wording

Under new family ownership. Still good breakspears beer. Large beer garden. Food has gone upmarket. Good food but now high end prices. Under 12s not allowed to eat indoors. Hence exclusive upmarket feeling rather than old remote pub in the woods.

Lovely setting. Wonderful food. Bit pricey. Children not allowed to eat indoors.

Had a truly excellent lunch on a lovely sunny day. We’ve previously visited this chef’s establishments so knew what to expect and we weren’t disappointed. Food is fresh and of high quality, cooking is executed perfectly Finished our deserts on the terrace outside in the...

This pub should really be named The Don’t Drop Inn as if you haven’t booked, you’ll be treated as a second class citizen and not able to order any food. It isn’t really a pub at all which is a shame as it’s on popular walking routes. If you’re looking for a quick drink it’s fine. The menus looked incredible and I’m sure the food is great so this review is mainly aimed at the average joe who, like us, expected to be able to wander in and get some pub food but that’s not the vibe.

We came to celebrate a birthday and were delighted with our visit. The welcome was as friendly as when I booked on the phone. The food was delicious- beautifully cooked and presented. We both had the fish which was perfection. My chocolate pudding was superb....

Excellent lunch. The crab was super as were all the dishes. Super staff and a friendly welcome from the chef. Was lovely sat in dining area of garden.

My wife and I had a wonderful dinner last night. We called ahead to advise my wife was vegan and she was thrilled with her food. I had the crab starter. An old favourite from the chef’s previous local restaurant and really very good. My...

40 years we have been coming here, last night ( Friday ) was heaving with foodies and happy drinking couples! Fantastic atmosphere, truly good food and wonderful service by beautiful people. New landlord is making a brilliant difference.

Delighted this place has been turned around since the new owners took over, the food offering is great and they have some superb beer on tap. It’s so nice to see a small selection of drinks on tap done well rather than a large amount...

Food was excellent and a lovely spot for a Sunday lunch. Service was on the rushed side but friendly and helpful

We arrived here after a 5 mile dog walk as we heard it had a new landlord. There were 6 of us and we sat outside as we had dogs. The grass had not been cut and the place looked a little untidy. Ordered drinks...

Made a special trip to try Simon Bonwick's famed classical French cooking and more than glad we did. Everything was exceptional, including a finely prepared starter of picked crab with citrus sauce, perfectly cooked tender lamb rump with salsa verde and a peach baba dessert that was out of this world. Service was warm, attentive and welcoming and the setting was very idyllic - off the beaten track in the woods. Followed lunch with a glorious hike back through the Thames Valley to catch the train back to London from Marlow. Will be back!

Following recent ownership change we decided to again try the Dew Drop inn for dinner on 26/5/23. Rather strangely unable to book online, so had to call a few times before reaching somebody to make a booking. I had asked my PA to reserve a...

Service wasn’t very good. Food wasn’t great. Probably won’t come here again.

Following recent ownership change we decided to again try the Dew Drop inn for dinner on 26/5/23. Rather strangely unable to book online, so had to call a few times before reaching somebody to make a booking. I had asked my PA to reserve a table for 3 at 20.00. She advised booked for 19.30 but as published opening hours are open until 22.00 I did not expect any issue if we arrived at 20.00 as were were in meetings until 19.30 before making our way down the interminable road of huge speed bumps before the long drive through a pot holed single lane road to the restaurant Quite incredibly upon arrival we were advised that the kitchen closed at 20.00 and the chef would not be serving us. I noted the pub was less than 50% full , with only a few diners and 3 cars in the car park ? As we had driven 30 minutes in 2 separate vehicles to get there , I again asked the waitress whether she thought this was good business practice to be turning away corporate diners so rudely , but she again advised the chef would not be serving anybody as the kitchen was closed ! Needless to say we will never return and we recommend other diners avoid Try the nearby Hindshead or Caldesi - top class establishments with amazing staff unlike the Dewdrop Inn

Terrible place. Booked for 7.30 pm for a Friday and arrived at 8 pm. We were turned away as kitchen “was closed at 8 pm”. Hours advertised on google states close at 10 pm. This ownership is not only very strange but could not care less about guests. Risky to go there as could end up in a wasted trip. No online booking tool so you have to call several times to get a booking. Previous visit had to wait to get a handwritten bill. The food is not this good to merit all the hassles. Will not be around long if they keep upsetting their guests.

Bad attitude. Advertised open until 10 pm and we arrived at 8 pm. 3 of us and kitchen refused to take orders as kitchen did not wish to work beyond 8 pm. Restaurant empty on a Friday evening. Not surprising as owner/chef has a strange...

Food was okay dingy ambience champagne half a glass at top prices no proper napkins and I thought very expensive for mediocre meal staff were very nice

Great place, food delicious, booze lovely great team. Would recommend

Excellent food, decent wine and fantastic location

My wife and I often used to have a very pleasant drink and meal at the Dewdrop. Beautiful setting, friendly staff and excellent food. Cannot recommend a better place for a sunny day.

We’ve been visiting this delightful pub annually for 14 years when holidaying in nearby Hurley. We’ve seen it run under various managements during these years, except last year when it was closed. Now a new team have opened it up and this year I had...

Lovely pub with really good food and atmosphere

Phoned and left a voicemail to book for 24 hours later. Didn’t get a response. Turned up the following day, there were open signs outside, cars in the car park and guests inside. Refused even to sell us a soft drink and a packet of peanuts because they said they had stopped serving. Considering this a popular route for walkers we will not be returning. Dreadful customer “service” in every respect.

What an excellent find !! Top quality French cuisine from the new owners, easily Michelin star quality ! The quality & freshness of the produce matched the Chef's skills of cooking them to ensure perfect textures and flavours. Service was delightful and a meal at...

booked with some trepidation, due largely to the short menu and whether our friends would find it acceptable. I needn't have worried. We were greeted by a super young team (thanks India) and sat in the bar for drinks. The pate starters were a little...

About Last Night, the journey out to the enchanted Dew Drop Inn is worth a special detour! Value for money, wonderful staff, sensationally clean … Go Now Before The Secret Is Out!

Whilst the picturesque, Hansel & Gretel style location is worth the drive from the main road, simply don’t go there if you’re hungry. I can’t criticise the service, the staff were lovely and accommodating but I could sense the understandable embarrassment of the young waiter when my girlfriend and I were served the smallest amount of food on a plate that was longing to have more on it. The menu said falafels (note the plural), avocado and spiced grains. Sounds wonderful. It was one tiny falafel and a teaspoon of grains with spots of avocado purée dotted around the plate. Sure, that one mouthful tasted nice but I could have spent the £11 per plate in much better ways. The beer was good, staff were friendly, the crooked old cottage was delightfully charming and cosy and the location was idyllic. But oh how wrong the food style was for that setting. Hugely overpriced and disappointing. Get the food right, and it might have been one of the best hidden pub gems in the country.

As a family we've been coming to the dew drop for over 20 years & we've seen many a landlord come & go & though some have had a really good go nobody has been able to make it a success, with the food often being pretty patchy The new landlord is now turning out amazing food, the staff literally couldn't be more attentive or helpful & the place just seems a lot cleaner somehow! We had a nice drink yesterday in the new garden layout, & I can confirm our great Dane was made to feel very welcome by Simon the chef/landlord

No children under 12, must have clean shoes (no wellies or muddy shoes) - not ideal for a country pub! Rude staff too. What a shame as this used to be a great pub to visit.

An amazing evening. Snuggled in the woods the Dew drop Inn is a charming find. Service was warm friendly and efficient. Food was sensational. My choices of crab, rabbit pie and syrup sponge were all off the scale delicious. So pleased we have found this...

Probably one of the best Sunday roasts I ever had. Gravy was just 👌(and you can see that it was not just another store bought diluted gravy but a properly made). Everything we ordered was delicious. Duck was my favourite of all of them. This place is a hidden gem and must see! 😊

Efficient and attentive staff, good food, let down by some items overpriced for very small portions ( £38 for 3 forks of fish ! ) not dog friendly in restaurant only in small bar or outside.

Very disappointed that the new owners of a lovely local pub (The Dew Drop Inn, Hurley) is refusing to allow us to visit for lunch with our 8 month old in April 2023. This pub/restaurant lives long in the memory of our partners family, however we will now need to find an alternative venue to have engagement celebrations. What a shame :-(

Lovely Sunday lunch today. The roast beef was so tender it was like slicing through a piece of butter! My husband had the lamb and said it was the best he’s ever had! Ambience was good. Lovely welcoming roaring fire. The staff were professional, attentive and friendly and warm. Will 100% be returning. One request though. Can you please put another vegetarian option on the menu and maybe a couple of vegan options too.

Service and food is amazing...Nice place to come and eat.

A Country Pub in the Woods. We arrived early evening and were welcomed by the sight of golden festoon lights surrounding the pub like a giant hug. A warm welcome from the friendly barman and a cosy fire to sit and enjoy a pre dinner...

Support local pubs in 2023. Beautiful Friday lunch under the new team at The Dew Drop Inn. Crab starter with beef & lamb mains. And of course some ale & red wine to help things along. Sign posted from Henley Road turning into Honey Lane.

Went to this restaurant last night with my niece who lives nearby. We arrived a little early but they opened up for us and we sat by the welcome fire having a G&T. The staff in this restaurant are faultless, friendly, professional and knowledgable about...

A lovely winter walk with friends to an excellent Sunday Lunch . Good food, nice environment , friendly , informative and helpful staff all combined to make this a very pleasant dining experience. I liked the very clear and simple guidelines around our muddy boots and dog (and other things). We all knew what our host deemed acceptable for us and other guests . I felt like a guest rather than client :)

Great spot under new management. Staff very friendly. Looking forward to coming back.

You wouldn’t stumble across the Dew Drop, it’s a little haven in the middle of nowhere in the woods and I think our Uber driver thought we were a bit deranged on the way there. It was also quite hard to book in my experience...

I don't really know where to begin! From the moment we arrived we were greeted warmly and made to feel at home by the staff. The food was out of this world. The lamb was the nicest I have had in a very, very long...

Be in no doubt, the Dew Drop has been struggling for years. It’s in a great location but lacking an identity. Enter Simon Bonwick, lately of The Crown in Burchetts Green. We went for Sunday lunch today and it was 10/10. Simon is a great...
