The Three Tuns in South Oxfordshire

Great spot, with a great selection of beers and a real feeling of Henley history 💥

Lovely cosy pub with log burner, friendly service, nice homely atmosphere

Brilliant pub.had such a great afternoon in here.food drink and very friendly.would highly recommend a visit

Lovely pub in the heart of Henley-on-Thames. Good food and really cosy in the winter with the open fire.

Fantastic pub. Atmosphere great. Temporarily landed is so friendly. Met lots of other campers. Unfortunately we were too late for food, although what we saw going out looked lovely. We will visit again

Called in here Tuesday, 9th July. Just wanted to sit down and have nice glass of wine and a beer. Dog friendly. Very pleasant barmaid.. We were not eating but food that came out for other customers looked nice. I had a Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.

The Three Tuns has clearly been taken over by new owners. I have been many times in the past and had superb food and service. I eat there last night, it was the single most horrific dining experience I have ever had. Service? A barely clothed waitress, more suitably attired for a low end gentlemen’s club was our server. Inept is the best I can think of to describe her. Clearly had no training, or supervision. The food was disgusting. Greasy, tepid and tasteless. Once famous for it mussels, we were informed the mussels were dead! So a half portion of a mini pork pie, probably from Sainsbury’s was offered in stead. The truffle and Parmesan chips were fried in oil that had probably not been changed in many days, they had no truffle or Parmesan Flavour, only ancient oil. The tempura veggies were sticky, slimy batons of veg, no batter, just deep fried and dripping in grease. The pork belly was rubbery tasteless over cooked and served with a quartered fresh apple barley cooked placed on the top of the meat. The apple appeared withered and shrivelled, all pips still intact. No flavour, just a small tasteless square of meat. Not only was it desperately bad food but it took more than an hour to get the appetizers on the table, with a further wait for the mains. It was awful, they are living on the hard earned reputation of the previous management, I shall not be back.

Fab pub. Always has been. Always will be. There was rumoured to be a hole in the wall between the front bar and the butcher's next door. The resident butcher some decades ago liked his pint so much. Steeped in history. 'The Henley Riot' took place outside this pub. Long ago too. Gone off a bit in recent months - June 2024

Wonderful old pub that really looks the deal. The barmaid on duty the afternoon we were there was lovely and polite and gave us a little history of the place. There is a separate area on the other side of the main bar for dining and there seems to be a separate private room available if you require it. n absolutely wonderful place with excellent Guinness and Brakspear Gravity.

Went to see a band the beer a friendly staff

Just had a lovely meal, Camembert followed by excellent Steak & Chips with an enjoyable bottle of Malbec. But the standout take home was the service from EJ. Big smile, willingness to help, fast paced, running front of house on her own… you are lucky to have her! Big up for the chef too for the great food. We will be back!

Organised a bit of a lunch party, this was the place to have it. Classic pub, bistro dishes on the menu and great beer. We use this place when shopping, it’s always good. The staff are friendly and it’s not a shock when you get the bill. Just so handy.

What a fantastic little gem!!! Not your usual pub. Had lunch on Mothering Sunday. Really good roast dinner, fantastic deserts. Lovely Staff. Olde English atmosphere. Will be back

Stayed near Henley for weekend, booked for Sunday Lunch. Visited on the Saturday for a drink, shared the bar with a group of young people enjoying a pub crawl celebration. Quite chatty, getting more noisy, but friendly banter. Next day, Sunday lunch was a totally different atmosphere. Calm peaceful dining and a full pub. Family friendly. The Sunday roast was superb, a bit more pricey than other pubs in Henley, but couldn't fault it. Left very satisfied, the bar staff were friendly and polite, Would return if in area.

Absolutely delicious Sunday roast. Lovely, cosy bar area, perfect for eating, drinking and watching the world go by. 👍🏻

Unbelievably disappointing. Been here before and loved it but massively gone down hill food wise. Everything was microwaved and bought to our table within about 2 minutes and was distinctly average. Starter plates taken away and main courses plonked on table 30 seconds later - again microwaved and not tasty. Really I wouldn’t bother unless you just want a pint.

The mussels and baked Camembert was fab. Am going back for more!

I organised a dinner for about 20 people, for which we reserved the Boatshed behind the pub, which was really nice, with its own bar and wood burner keeping us warm. Pre-ordering all our food and settling at the end was very efficient and painless. All the food was brought out on time, and by name, so there was no confusion and the whole evening went smoothly with no hiccups or issues at all, everyone was happy with their meal and I wouldn't hesitate to book the Three Tuns Boatshed again.

We arrived to a very busy pub, fire was on and it was a good atmosphere. We had a drink in the bar then went through to our table. This wasn’t as cosy, in fact we felt cold, they had a fire but it was gas, and didn’t produce any heat. We were sat at a table near a door that ran down an alley to the toilets, which was open to the elements. I ordered the Brie for my starter, it was nice with cranberry sauce. For my main I had the beef ravioli, was very tasty. All of the meals are very small and for the price, feel you should have more for your money. My husband had the fish and chips, the fish was ok, but his chips were under cooked. The staff were friendly, could have been more attentive when it came to offering drinks, we were sat for along time with empty glasses and had to go to the bar. Will we return, probably not for food.

Great pub dating back to 1500's. Staff really nice. Highly recommended

Great little pit stop after The Bull in Bell Street..!

We went to the Three Tuns for my Dad's birthday, the bar was super busy, the food was really good and the service was super.

Very small traditional pub but well worth a visit

Must have caught them on a bad day! Very slow service cold plates poor food. Never again.

Lovely little place. Service was so friendly and professional and food was delicious. Especially the baked Camembert x

Courteous, friendly staff and great food, definitely above average. It's a little pricey but you get what you pay for. I got to the pub after a long hike, the last few hours in persistent rain... I was tired, cold, hungry, sweaty and muddy, but they didn't bat an eyelid! Very welcoming!

Great food and service. Didn't realise how big it is. Huge 2nd bar in the garden

Great pub friendly staff great food and a great chef they purchase local products and their meat from next door a very renowned butchers,go there!!!!!

Great Sunday lunch Beautiful pub and friendly staff Highly recommended.

Proper pub, good food, beer and atmosphere. Only small but beer garden is a treat.

We had an impromptue Sunday lunch recently. It was perfect.

Brilliant Sunday roast, especially the chicken and the vegan wellington. Big portions and they even brought extra gravy on the house. Staff were really helpful, especially regarding allergens and bringing more tap water without us having to ask.

A really nice pub. The Boat House at the back is a nice place to have a drink.

Went there for a lunchtime meal. Booked as I thought it might be busy on a Saturday and it was. I had wild boar sausages and mustard mash. My partner had the burger. Both extremely good. Service very good. Brakspear's Beer nice too, as were the deserts.

This pub used to pride itself on serving the best. No longer, they only serve very ordinary sweet fizzy cider instead of the proper stuff they used to have. And two pints and two packets of crisps cost £15.60!!!! Sadly the garden was full of braying idiots playing songs on their phones and shouting. Not going back there again

Popped in here for a quick pint, whilst the weather turned nasty... Outside space has a nice waterproof cover... So all good. The pub's right on the square in the centre of town and has a decent selection of drinkies and seating areas.

We ate Sunday lunch here today and the staff were very personable even though they were very busy. I had the beef which was like sirloin steak and my wife had the chicken Sunday lunch and both were very good. I don’t eat Coliflour cheese but my wife said it’s the best she had had. We will be going back here for more food and drink

Great pub with excellent food and incredible service - will be back for the Rugby World Cup!!!

We visited after a terrible experience down the road in another Henley Pub. The Tuns renewed our faith in Henley pubs and restaurants. Lovely staff found us a table and we dined like lords. Beautiful food, good value for money and great selection of beer and wines. Highly recommend.

Called for a drink and decided to have Sunday lunch. Staff were lovely and sorted us a table for 2, even though they were extremely busy. Roast pork dinner and chicken were both nice. Ample vegetables came separately, and we asked for extra gravy, and it was no trouble to them.

Managed to get a table for Sunday lunch and glad we did.

Great food and outstanding service ! Highly recommended!

Had my team dinner here during w/c 12th June and we hired the room at the back of the pub. It was perfect, allowed us to be a little noisier if needed but above all the atmosphere was great, food was really good, service excellent and the staff were incredibly helpful as always. Thanks so much for a great evening.

Great food, lovely atmosphere! Stopped for roast dinner, reasonably priced, huge portions and gigantic Yorkie to top the meal 100% recommend

Stopped by during a business visit, Great atmosphere, wonderful place, delicious Sunday roast and very friendly staff. Had a chance to meet the management and been a cherry on top of my experience. Absolutely recommend

A quiet place to make a coffee and have a pasta

Honestly, I had hoped for more. I had a decent pasta dish and husband had a fairly good burger. The sticky toffee pudding was a little disappointing. Service was excellent, not issues there! For the price, I had just hoped for a little more. The patio is lovely, and highly recommend eating there if possible.

An absolute surprise. We were walking down the road thinking what to have for lunch. It’s Sunday so might as well have roast. From a pub that we have nevertheless eaten from before. We didn’t expect much. We ordered just standard 4 beef roast and some pints. The roast came with beautiful thick 2 piece, beautiful medium, lovely roasted potatoes, vege and cauliflower & cheese. Love the Yorkshire pudding and the horseradish was a perfect compliment. The service was so quick, I am pretty sure I have to wait for longer in McDonald’s. We ate so fast, there’s no photos. But highly recommend

Great service and friendly atmosphere

Fair disclosure, I’m a regular at the Tuns. I’m a regular because the atmosphere is great, the staff welcoming, and the food and drink spot on. It generally attracts a decent set of folks - from singles like me, to families. (You do get the very occasional rare breed - see the review a couple down from this). Dog friendly, usually packed.

Always friendly with a warm welcome. Great food. Berry Eton Mess followed a delicious roast beef meal.

Never been so disrespected in a pub before. Spent hours in here with 6/7 friends, spent hundreds of pounds and was then asked to leave after buying a round of drinks because a party was starting in the tent outside next to our table. No warning or option to move, just thrown out the pub and threatened with police if we did not leave immediately without finishing drinks, no option with going inside because it was full. Shocking. Managers of the bar were so rude and aggressive, I have a video of the male manager trying to intimidate me with violence to leave. AVOID THIS PUB

Good food, staff very good. Well worth a try.

Interesting small pub with various rooms around the bar. Good prices and friendly staff. Town centre.

Superb. Best Sunday Roast in Henley from a perspective as well seasoned as the gravy. A warm welcome, excellent professional and friendly service throughout. Delicious food in a warm and inviting quaint and quintessentially traditional atmosphere, I especially liked that the perfectly cooked beef sat atop the crispy and fluffy roasties, leaving them to be discovered on a culinary journey that can be described as nothing but excellent.

Love this place. Great food and Erdinger on tap. Will return.

Went for Sunday lunch with family. Quite busy when we got there. Food was great only negative is service. Finished the bottle of wine and they took it away but never asked if we wanted anything else to drink or another bottle. When we had finished our meal the place was less than half full but again wasn't asked if we wanted coffe or anything more and waited over 40 minutes and even then I had to go and ask for the bill..Then the bill had a service charge of over £26 on it !!! For what services I would like to know !

We had a late Sunday lunch. Nice roast dinner and a beer. My beef roast was just over £20.

Very good food and nice setting. Reasonable price. Would go again. Thanks

Nice pub in the heart of Henley

We had very good sausage & mash and fish & chips. Good service too, in a lovely old building.

Out for a walk today with our dog and popped in to ask if they were dog friendly. The barman gave us a warm welcome and said no problem with the dog in the front bar so in we went. One fish and chips and one sausage and mash later and we were a very happy couple. Sausages were from the butchers next door and were first class. Sensible pricing and good selection of beers and a real fire. Perfect on a chilly day.

Lunchtime visit lovely food with friendly service. We'll be back again soon

Everything you can ask for in a pub. This pub has a warm and welcoming atmosphere when you walk in. There was a warm fire that was lit, which made the whole place feel very cosy. Great selection of drinks (particularly nice espresso martini). The staff are very friendly and make the whole place feel very comfortable. Highly recommended place to visit.

Had a meal here recently, delicious food and relaxing and friendly atmosphere, great value for money. Had a good selection of beers and a welcoming fire on a cold February night.

Booked out the private room at the back of the garden. Fantastic service from all the staff, the food was great and came in nice big portions. Highly recommended.

Johnny was a lovely host..6 of us adults and a dog! 1 gluten free guest and all good...lovely meal ,very accomodating and a lovely atmosphere...gorgeous pub in the heart of Henley town centre..lovely place for a pitstop too as we are currently sat here now(a few days later) as a couple !

Had a quick dinner here last night with a work colleague. Pub was really warm, cozy, and the restaurant area was really welcoming. We just had a main, both had steaks which were really excellent. Meat came from Machins next door and was really tender....

While we come here often for a drink this was our first visit for Sunday roast. Very friendly service, great presentation and quality of food and very reasonable prices. Highly recommend!

This is THE BEST pub in Henley Asked for a burger to share as intended to return this eve for meal Presented as a ready split plate and a glass of water appeared magically following a coughing fit Fire roaring and dog treats - this...

We regularly eat at the Three Tuns as we enjoy both its excellent food and friendly, cosy, ambiance. Unfortunately whilst the food was still good on our visit tonight the atmosphere/ambiance was quite unpleasant. This was due to being served by a young women who...

Excellent pub, friendly staff and fantastic food, the camembert sharing platter and truffle fries were exceptional 😋

Excellent roast & great service. All freshly cooked and sourced ingredients with locally sourced meat. Lovely cosy pub with real fire

Delicious food for a Sunday Roast ! We absolutely loved it all and the service was impeccable. I have the vegetarian and was the best O have had in a long time. Dessert was also a dream definitely go for the chocolate brownie and ice cream 👌🏼We would recommend it to everyone !! Gemma

Great pub. Good pub nosh excellent service. We will return

This pub always has a nice atmosphere and great beers as well as lovely staff. Over the years there has been some great food on the menu but the latest takeover has not delivered the best food. Chicken schnitzel was very dry and the toast...

Nice atmospheric pub but food not up to standard and comedy night disappointing, comedian not very funny and quite offensive.

Had Saturday lunch and the next day a Sunday roast. Superb food, lovely atmosphere and a very warm welcome. Will definitely visit again.

What a great experience. Lovely food and drink and a great atmosphere! Highly recommended, would come again.

Bon accueil, carte un peu basique et peu élaborée, c'est un peu dommage car la cuisine était plus élaborée il...

Just had Sunday lunch here .. Lovely atmosphere with really friendly staff . Ale was spot on ( I had the Gravity ) Roast chicken was perfect , though a little bit pricey for a roast but it is Henley on Thames . Medium wine...

Nice pub with lovely new landlords

Henley seems to have a monopoly on really old pubs, this is no exception. Excellent food, I would recommend you book in advance, good beer and a roaring log fire welcome. Proper English!

We had the most amazing meal at the best pub we’ve ever been to in Henley-on-Thames. My wife had an amazing Sunday roast - the best beef and cauliflower cheese she’d tasted whilst I had the delicious duck salad and our niece said the Tuns...

We visited the Three Tons today for an early evening meal and it was wonderful in every way. What an excellent choice we made and I can’t believe we’ve walked past so many times and never ventured in. The lady who took my reservation when...

Lovely pub but I was not happy with the hygiene. A dog was allowed to sit up on a seat by the staff (sitting on its shi**ty arse) and the seat was not cleaned after. Next people can pick it up on their hands and then eat a meal. Not good. Dogs have become more important that people I’m afraid.

We opted for the "Lobster and Prosecco" deal on Friday evening and we were not disappointed! It was awesome, great value, taste and as usual, a lovely cosy atmosphere !!! Welcome to Henley-on-Thames, John and Misha (the new mgt team) who are making their mark...

Good pub food. Street views from a few tables at front. Tables a little low for tall people and slighty wonky.

Great food, my burger and fries was really tasty and my partners beef and Guinness pie was tasty too, nice couple of pints of Razor Back and then a very nice pear tart pudding to finish things off. Good service too. We’ll definitely be back.

A very short break in Henley for work reasons and we ate here both nights. Charming little pub, friendly staff and large portions of wonderful food - soft shelled crab, mussels and belly pork, all beautiful.

Fantastic cheese platter, great pie and really good beers. Definitely a please to go back to. Great with family , perfect with friends!

Lovely old pub with friendly staff. Dog friendly too.

Cosy little pub. Delicious food. Great service. Wonderful vibe!

potatoes were very hard and impossible to bite into. The plates were quite small and didn’t fit all the food in. The broccoli and chicken were nice so was the customer service, we also had to wait a long time to get our food and we were the only ones in the restaurant. Overall the food wasn’t the best but my friend Jimmy makes better Sunday Roast.

Very friendly staff, not bad food, good place for weekends lunch.

A cozy traditional pub and staff are friendly, efficient and helpful. Vegetarian menu limited and the aubergine lasagna served was more of a child's sized portion. My partner and I enjoyed our drinks and atmosphere, but left still feeling hungry. Perhaps management could review their pricing in accordance with the portion size to encourage repeated patronage.

Amazing stuff and the food was great! Definitely we will be back 😉

Beautiful local pub with a relaxed vibe and good wine. I've been here several times and always feel comfortable and welcomed.

A character dinning pub, it felt lovely and cosy. A mix of pub/ dinning. A candle in a bottle on the table is a nice touch. Good choice of food freshly cooked. Nice to have cotton napkins and quality cutlery. Did have to flag waitress...

Lovely Sunday roast and family friendly. Really enjoyed when my family visited around Christmas time.. friendly staff too! Not too sure about the size of the garden but to be honest, it’s cosy and had a lovely time!
