The Pineapple in South Bucks

Visited on a Monday evening. It was pretty quiet. In some pubs this is a recipe for ropey beer as what's in the pumps is stale and nasty but not here. Drank two pints of London Pride as good as any I've had. We ate too - the sandwiches and wraps were fine. Not sure a Frenchman would recognise the baguette but the long bap served up was tasty enough. All told, a good visit. (Update) Visited on a wet Thursday evening. The pub was busy but not full. We were seated easily. The beer was still good (Doom Bar this time). My companions reported that their sandwiches and wraps were great. I had a pizza, which was massive and delicious. Update: Visited for Sunday lunch. Beef and Pork roast dinners excellent. Our friends had sandwiches which were also praised, as were the chips. Drinks and service great. Can still recommend.

Amazing Sunday Lunch. Will definitely going back to try the sandwiches. Our waiter Connor was brilliant as well,

Food is decent and it located in a nice area. Staff are slow at serving behind the bar. Took budweiser from the drinks. I'll not be back

Food very nice but don’t understand why the Fullers Pride was served chilled , probably the least enjoyable pint that I have had in a long time, I did notice that when I paid the bill a plastic glass had been put over the tap , now wish that I had sent it back . I used to be a regular visitor many years ago and it’s getting on for 50 years ago !

Great sandwiches, generously filled and very fresh. Friendly, efficient staff. Excellent lunch experience. Thank you! *****

We visited The Pineapple for lunch on Sunday as a group of 13, and we had a brilliant experience! The service was fantastic, and the wide selection of sandwiches was, as always, top-notch. The Sunday roasts looked amazing, and the kids absolutely loved the homemade pizzas. I would highly recommend The Pineapple! The food portions are incredibly generous, so we didn’t have room for desserts, but you can always take a stroll around Dornery afterwards to walk it off. It’s a great place to stop by, especially after a walk or bike ride!

What a fabulous Sunday afternoon the 10 of us had, fantastic Sunday lunch, great portions and very hot. The team welcomed us, we only booked the day before but nothing was too much trouble. A big thank you to the team from Sharon and the gang xx

Me and my girlfriend fancied a pub lunch last Sunday, and decided to try the pineapple for the first time and we wasn’t disappointed. My friend recommended it, and said the food was excellent.They were spot on, the pub had a very extensive menu from sandwiches, pizzas, to Sunday roasts. We decided on Sandwiches which were delicious. The pub is very cosy, the decor and ambiance is very pleasant. The Staff including the manager were all very friendly and helpful and we did not have to wait long for our food. I would highly recommend the food and the pub.Definitely going back to try the Sunday roast.

A lovely, comfortable and friendly pub close to pretty walks along the Jubilee river. A great choice of sarnies, good pub food and drinks available. Dogs are welcome.

Discovered 'The Pineapple' today. Great place for lunch with good food and helpful staff. Not just dogs allowed, but dogs welcomed. Happy to recommend. We will be back. Thank you

We hadn't been in over 10 years, when it was good. Never again. Overall, the initial service was good, with quick drink and food orders. The staff were friendly, despite being very busy. My father in law had a beef sandwich which was very disappointing. The meat could have been used to wear as shoes. There was a lot of gristle and he had to stop eating entirely. He did complain, so when we got the bill, we thought they would knock the meal off the bill. No. Apparently. if you eat a partial amount, they will not deduct the price. So, overall, we all left feeling very let down. This is a a strange policy to have, for the sake of one sandwich. Also, the crusts on the bloomer were very hard. The Fish finger sandwich had too much tartare sauce, the bread fell apart and was hard to eat. An arrogant attitude has meant a negative review.

I had the Beef encounter. Worse thing I have ever encountered the beef could be likened to a Philips stick a sole.Worst meal I have ever tried to eat.

Bring your four legged friend for a true pub experience. True cask ales. There handmade pizzas 🍕 and sandwiches are a don't miss. Visited several times on our trip. They have trivia and silent disco nights to boot. Great neighborhood pub.

Loved this place! The Pineapple has around three completely different areas within itself that caters for the environment you want to find yourself in. On top of that the service is very friendly and helpful.... And of course the food is exceptional. Highly recommended!

Caught up with family yesterday, haven’t been to the Pineapple in quite a few years really great service, the sandwich & chips were as remembered and extremely tasty!

Excellent choice of sandwich fillings and varieties of bread for your sandwich. I've never had a bad meal here.

A lovely hidden gem. Tucked away a few minutes diversion off the M4 this was perfect for a pitstop with the kids. They have a pizza oven and make the most delicious (and gigantic) pizzas, alongside a very broad sandwich menu. Sometimes the simplicity is the best choice. Inside is cosy, village pub feel and has a large beer garden for the warmer days. There's also a kids menu (smaller, but still large pizza, half a sandwich or fish fingers/sausages and chips). Would definitely return.

Lovely that the Pineapple is back up and running again. I haven't been for a while. I wasn't disappointed in the prompt service the cleanliness of the outdoor space but I was disappointed in the meat, loose term, in the sandwiches. I get that they need to make a profit but to use very thin slices of meat , nearly transparent, plenty of slices to make it but not in their well known sandwiches was a let down. There used to be chunks of meat that looked like it had been sliced from a joint but these looked like the lack lustre slices you get in supermarket packs. I hope this will be addressed because I loved going there. I wish now I'd spoken to the person in charge on the day to ask why.

Amazing sandwiches and fresh salad. Enjoyed every bit of the food. Even overate because of the lip smacking taste.

All very good 😊only minus is parking

We were staying in Dorney for a family gathering and booked dinner at The Pineapple. Lovely old pub, great service and good pub grub. Pizzas or sandwiches with chips and salad. Casual night out, delicious food, good service, we all had a good night out!

I wanted a nice spot for lunch before heading back to South Wales and found this gem on Google Maps. The place is beautiful and in a great location - tucked away, yet still close to the M4. They serve excellent sandwiches made with fresh ingredients, and the staff were all very friendly.

This has been my go-to place for many years for decent reasonably priced food and drink. The menu consists of sandwiches and pizza and has always been of a consistent quality... until this week! I'm hoping this lapse was a one off, but it doesn't bode well when there were faults with most of our dishes! I think they do "triple cooked" chips, but these were triple burned and looked like they had several cycles in a deep fat fryer. Pizza was over cooked and tomatoes in my sandwich were a bit mushy so that's three strikes in one meal! The meal was edible (chips borderline) but deeply unsatisfactory. I will probably return in a few weeks time and hope by then it returns to it's former glory, but otherwise I'll have to find a new local which isn't easy these days as most pubs have been converted into McDonald's or similar garbage. ***update*** Well I am happy to report that food was back on form on my most recent visit so I guess whoever was in charge of the kitchen on my previous visit is no longer allowed near it! I can highly recommend this place for the atmosphere, lovely garden, and now the food too!

What a great find. Spotted this on the map as a halfway point on a long drive and glad we did. Lovely pub with friendly staff and great food and a very reasonable price. Extensive menu of sandwich and pizza options. Will definitely go back next we’re in the area.

The sandwiches are incredible. We came here for lunch at about 3:30. There is plenty of staff who are all nice. I had a vegan sandwich and my bf had a chicken one. The fast service is amazing and the sandwiches themselves are so filling because of the thick and soft white bread.

Well, if I ever fancy a pizza, I am only ever gonna go here! Not sure what dough they use but boy is it great! Fluffy, thin and fresh! 9 of us, 7 had pizzas. All food came out together which is no mean feat! Dogs allowed. Highly recommended!

Really nice place, large garden with plenty of tables. Variety of food and catering for gluten free ect. The chips were great, fat and crispy.

Ok so after the same thing happening twice now I decided to write a review. Was in here 2 weeks ago , ordered a sandwich and chips , was quite busy so I didn’t mind the hour wait for food .. but they didn’t bring the chips. Then today , very quiet , we ordered chips. Sat for 45 minutes till I had to get up and ask as people ordering food after us got theirs. And we just ordered ‘ chips ‘ .. staff don’t really seem to care. Nice garden area but need to sort their service out.

Only popped in for a pizza and the team couldn't have been more helpful, Jenny was so kind to our dog Bella, and Steph was so attentive and friendly. Can't wait to come back

Amazing sandwich. Served quickly with a smiles. Definitely worth a visit.

Great choice of various sandwiches, not like your usual sandwiches well worth a visit. Friendly staff, god beers too.

When we got there it was very stuffy and smelly inside, we were showed to our table, as we ordered drinks we ordered a starter of garlic bread with cheese x 2 along with drinks and weren’t at any Point told it was large or explained the size of the portion, I ordered some starters quickly as the children were really hungry at this point. We requested to save one whole garlic bread in a box for when we left. Mains were ok, abit bread heavy and the childrens were a full plate of pizza not half as menu stated. As a result we had to ask for two of the pieces of children’s pizza to also be boxed. Which at this point was a lot of food in the box. Went outside after because of smell and heat, had more drinks, enjoyed atmosphere, waiter brought out the box of food and I asked him to save it in the kitchen until we left. On leaving we asked for the food and a pile of food handed to us in tin foil, they had clearly ran out of boxes and just used ours for someone else!!! Wouldn’t of been so bad if the man hadn’t brought it out previously in a box! We had so much food to take back and as we were away on a break tin foil just wasn’t enough to preserve it so we lost out on 1 garlic bread and two slices of pizza. I did complain to the waitress but she said it is what it is, they ran out of boxes and I should of known the size of the garlic bread from the price, she would pass onto the manager who I hope sees this and acts quickly on this bad service!!! WOULDNT RECOMMEND AT ALL.

Lovely pub with a great outdoor space. Extensive sandwich menu to choose from.Met a friend for lunch and we had good food, good service and enjoyed the pleasant ambience outdoors under the canopy. Only one complaint - very limited parking! The pub is so popular that getting a parking space is difficult.

Myself and friends had a wonderful sunny lunch to celebrate my birthday at the Pineapple. Fantastic food and service was outstanding. All staff were friendly and keen to ensure we all had an enjoyable day. It was an easy 4 mile cycle from Windsor mainly off road taking in the river and countryside. Highly recommend.

A massive selection of samdwiches.Good value for money. A bit to much bread in ratio for liking but that's personal taste Staff friendly, busy enough considering we visited relatively early lunchtime on a Monday.

My favourite place to eat, took the family, as it was my birthday, and had a fab time. Only criticism was that the vegetarian choices were a bit limited if you dont like egg. Nevertheless, we all thoroughly enjoyed what we did eat. Will definitely be returning soon.

The young lads there were very welcoming and friendly, the food was absolutely amazing and I'd definitely go there again. Has a very nice outside area and is dog friendly.

Been coming here for 13 years and always enjoyed the sandwiches but last few visits I’ve found the bread extremely dense. Surely I’m not the only one who has noticed this. You’ve gone from great sandwiches to just average,disappointing.

Definitely recommend the sandwiches here.Will be making a return visit very soon.

Fantastic place, dog friendly, big garden and decking. The staff are absolutely incredible and so friendly. The food is served to perfection. Great warm atmosphere all around.

We went to the Pineapple the day after our wedding for lunch with 40 of our guests. We were given a group space on the terrace in their lovely garden. We were looked after brilliantly by all staff and specifically Jennie and Steph. The food was delicious, they were incredibly accommodating and made it really special for us - we had the best day!

Lovely pub grub with great service. Dogs are welcome and catered for (but they do ask for permission first).

Such a bad experience I don't believe we will ever return. In summary, Jenny (the manager) is exceptionally rude and attempted to help others cover up crashing in to our car in the car park!! It started out when we were waiting for food. One of our party overheard the table next to us talking about a badly parked car and how they had crashed in to one trying to park. Jenny (the manager) was talking to them and rather than suggesting they leave a note, said 'dont worry about it, they probably won't notice or aren't even in here'. The 'badly parked car' was actually someone from our party - there were 2 lorries in the car park when she arrived so one of the staff told her to park along the wall, which she did. Upon hearing this conversation, one of our party went out to check the cars, and the one who's car was being referred to explained what happened and offered to move it. Jenny replied "yes your car has caused chaos for the last hour, do move it" (RUDE). When she went outside there was a very rude letter on the car from the same woman. So she had suggested the table next to us try and get away with hitting out car, but had left a rude note because of parking. Whilst out there, Jenny proceeded to bark at our friend that she had spent the last hour trying to locate the owner of this car - which she absolutely hadn't. All it would have taken was for her to pop round every table and say "I'm looking for the owner of the car with registration X", but no. Our lunch out continues and the food arrives. Jenny (manager) brings it out and one of the orders is wrong. Instead of rectifying it, she throws it down Infront of our party and says "you don't mind having it, right. It looks delicious anyways" ??!! Absolutely shocking customer service. The final straw: I almost break a tooth on a bone from my chicken and pesto wrap. The owners should be ashamed of the manager they've hired.

Excellent restaurant, fabulous sandwiches (Chicken Lickin’ for me & usually Mega Mouthful for the husband). Wonderful staff, great beer garden, just get there early for a seat on a hot & sunny day, and best of all, it’s dog friendly. We LOVE The Pineapple!👍🏼

We organised a pub run from The Pineapple and afterwards 26 people were served with pizzas and sandwiches. We pre ordered the day before and Jenny and her team provided great service getting everyone’s orders out as specified. They did a great job.

Great place for lunch and drinks. Helpful staff 👌 The chips are so good.

Absolutel gem of a place , the staff are super friendly and the sandwiches are top rate!! Highly recommended!!

Sandwich specialist pub. Very pleasant, friendly staff. Amazing sandwiches

Excellent pub, great surroundings, atmosphere and sandwiches to die for

We came with a friend who recommended you. The food was good, and the staff were friendly. There's ample outdoor seating, and the sun was out, which made the vist great. Thanks to all at The Pineapple. 5***** Mark...

Welcoming staff and great service. Always helpful and can certainly recomment the Spicy Beef pizza with chunky chips.

This place is amazing food is top tier and drinks are well poured nkt expensive and a perfect place to have a drink with mates staff are amazing and respectfull

This is a beautiful old pub full of character and very friendly and attentive staff . We have visited a few times now and tried many of their amazing sandwiches and pizzas. The food has always been first class ~ great variety of classic favourites and unusual choice of sandwiches. They are huge and very filling.

Excellent Sunday lunch. Good value for the money

Have been to the Pineapple many times over the years. Lovely cosy atmosphere inside and good garden area outside with covered area if weather isn't great. Great menu of sandwiches (doorstep size) hot and cold. Pizzas and puddings too. Just a lovely place to go for a bite to eat at a reasonable price when going for a walk along the Jubilee River and surrounding countryside. Close to Dorney Court as well.

Today we came here again with my Family 2+2. Staff is friendly and helpful, food delicious and fresh. Great atmosphere here. Definitely will come back in the future.

One of the best Sunday Roasts in the area. Fantastic and efficient staff, extremely welcoming manager and food never fails to impress. Definitely worth a return visit.

Great tasty food great staff Clean and tidy . Only downside is parking but definitely would come back..

Family and dog friendly pub. Great outdoor area. Attentive polite staff Lovely fresh hot sandwiches and fluffy crispy chips.

Love the Pineapple. Very old pub, full of character. Good choice of beer and lagers. An amazing choice of sandwiches and the pizzas are very nice too. Very friendly and attentive team. Nice to visit after walking along the Jubilee River.

Amazing selection of sandwiches. Don't think they are boring. They are amazing.

Always good food and pleasant staff.

I booked a surprise celebration meal for my Father’s 70th Birthday at The Pineapple last weekend for 25 guests. From the moment I made the booking, the whole process was seamless. Steph, Connor and Jennie all answered my queries quickly and were very helpful with my requests. The meal pre-order process was straight forward and the staff were very accommodating with our guests dietary requirements. On the afternoon, the food and service were excellent. The waiting staff & the bar staff were fantastic and very helpful, nothing was too much trouble! I would also like to thank the kitchen staff, all the food was cooked to perfection and served very quickly. We had a mix of sandwiches and roasts and all our guests commented on how nice the food was. Everyone had a great afternoon! Thank you to all the Pineapple staff for making it such a lovely afternoon. I would thoroughly recommend The Pineapple for any special occasion.

Great pub with an alternative menu. Dog friendly, which is great. Worth a visit.

Always loved this pub. It has a very simple food concept. "We do the best sandwiches." And not many people would disagree with that. It has other things on the menu, but you have to try the sandwiches 🥪 😋

We had some of the Sunday roasts which were a little bit more expensive than I had priced them at online but I suspect that the website and Facebook pages aren't up-to-date. Other than that, the food was very good and the staff were quite attentive. It was a very pleasant experience at a reasonable cost.

Huge variety of sandwiches with comical names. A great spot for a post dog walk lunch. Staff were very dog friendly and even gave our little woofie a bowl of sausage pieces for her lunch and a blanket to snooze on. We came early and were lucky to get seated, advisable to book in advance. Looking forward to returning this summer.

Good beer, excellent food and service. Highly recommended.

Great service and atmosphere here!

Brought my parents here for a nice meal out, first time for all of us. Well worth the visit. The staff were brilliant, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. There was no sense of a rush and no wait for seating either. Food was amazing, and in huge portions too. It came very quickly and was cooked perfectly, full of flavour. The menu is vast so there are plenty of options. The roast dinners are huge, the sandwich was huge. Absolutely brilliant.

We met up with family for lunch after a walk so had a table booked and food pre-ordered. Drinks orders were taken promptly and the food followed shortly after. I had the beef encounter on crusty white with a portion of chips. Delicious! Portions are very generous and perfect for those with a healthy appetite. My wife had al caprawn and although the portion size was again very generous the prawns were small and didn't have a lot of flavour and the rose Marie sauce was a little watery. Overall a very good experience at the Pineapple that has been a favourite for a number of years.

We came to the pineapple on 11/2/24 for an early birthday lunch, the roast dinners were perfect and very filling, the staff were very friendly and accommodating! Many thanks Danny Ps the dog enjoyed her treats

The chicken in my sandwich was not fresh and it had giblets in it couldn’t even finish it the sauce which was way too much made the ciabatta bread soggy it tasted disgusting sorry to say I was so disappointed because the pub looks lovely and is very clean but the food is not good. My partners Christmas sandwich he had the turkey was dry and like it has been re heated trust me being a chef I know that the food was not fresh. Again very disappointing because the staff are very nice but no one did ask how our food was and felt like we was rushed. Very pricey for what it is could of spent £30 on something better

Staff were great at getting us a table last minute, sandwiches were fab!

First off, I have to say the Staff are 5* and very helpful, polite and accomodating. The atmosphere is also 5*. Parking is a little annoying and you need to be patient waiting for a space. But the sandwiches... are tasteless. This is my second visit here and my partner and I have been disappointed with the food both times. We order 2 sandwiches and share half with each other, so in total, have tried 4 sandwiches. The Starter of Padron Peppers were the best thing really. But we noticed ours (and other orders) are accompanied by bread overload to fill the plates. But there were plenty of tasty Padrons too to fill us both up. SANDWICHES - On this visit, we had the Vampire Attack and Fishermans Friend. The Vampire Attack: Roast beef, red onion and garlic dressing, sounds amazing but wasn't. This whole sandwich literally tasted of bread and a bit of onion, but there was plenty of filling, it was very weird! Tasteless beef and the most disappointing, tasteless garlic dressing! And there was a lot of it! The Fishermans Friend (Fish Finger sandwich basically) was OK, something you could easily make at home and still felt more bready than anything. The 3 stars are mainly based on the Sandwiches, as this is what The Pineapple is known for. We won't be returning any time soon unfortunately but I do love the concept! We will try again in a year or so.

Great place with really good service. The veggie roast was lovely.

Food is amazing, giant sandwiches, pizzas are delicious, staff are friendly and are happy to make substitutes to your order

Food good in yhis quirky, quaint pub. Staff really pleasant and helpful and reasonably priced

Excellent atmosphere, great choice of food, nice people, highly recommended 👌

Just returned from the Pineapple after a roast dinner, which is the best tasting roast l've experienced for a long time. Service was equally as good, food was served quickly to a party of 7. Mike

Went there with a party of 30 for refreshments. The buffet they put on was absolutely top quality. I've no reason to think that their hot service wouldn't be up to the same standard. Budgetary figure below includes liquid refreshment.

Sandwiches are normally great value for money and always tasty, so many options there really is something for everybody. Have heard not so great things about the pizzas (silly as one of two things on their menu so you’d think they’d be equal). Drinks always okay, seated straight away and smiley waiters, sometimes takes a little while for food to come but very cosy atmosphere whilst you wait. Would recommend and always return.

I continue to enjoy this pub. Great food and very friendly staff. Completely full for a Wednesday lunchtime (10th January).

Faultless apart from so many dogs (Smell and barking)

Nice food, friendly staff worth a visit for sure

I had the Christmas Dinner sandwich which was delicious ! ALL the sandwiches are delicious and crammed full of the main ingredients.... like a meal in a sandwich ! Brilliant place !

Great place, great sandwiches! If your in the area this is a must visit place, it's legendary.

Sat outside having a sandwich in November. Was a good sandwich. Nice pub.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere, great food and good prices!

I loved it, very nice and yummy food. Staff were friendly too

popped in for dinner with my fiancé on a whim on the 30th October, we ordered two starters to share (the camembert and garlic mushrooms), a pizza each with add ons and two bottles of wine (for a very reasonable price!!) . the staff (three lovely ladies) went above and beyond for us, with kind table service, helping us when we had ab issue(camembert was undercooked but they fixed it and it was perfect). our pizzas were amazing - we filled ourselves on starters and they let us take our uneaten parts of our pizzas home as well as being extra polite and thoughtful. overall, the staff were super lovely and accommodating- the food and drink was lovely and the overall vibe was immaculate. thank you so much and i recommend this place so much :))) ((AN/// One note that is subtle and worth a mild complaint (however may be due to cleaners, other customers etc etc) was that the rope in the disabled/accessible toilet was tied up- which is not good as some people may require this to call for help, i ensured it was untied and loose but yeah)).

I haven't been there for years as I now live in Denver but it was nice to go back and see the old place

Great food, friendly staff and sensible prices. Go hungry, portions are big.

Quirky little pub off the beaten track. Huge selection of DEEP filled sandwiches. Great vegan options. Lovely roasts.

My wife and I were taken to this eatery by family members and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We were intrigued by the unusual menu and style of service. The food was excellent: the service and atmosphere great. It was very clear why this place is such a popular venue.

Really good food. Something homey and different

Excellent quaint original pub. Staff were brilliant. Food was excellent great atmosphere.. Highly recommended .

Amazing food. Amazing service. Best pub by miles. Food is amazing. Service fantastic. First time back in over 15 years and didn’t disappoint

Had an amazing roast after a triathlon at Dorney lake. Staff were friendly and accommodating
