Vansittart Arms in Windsor and Maidenhead

Absolutely brilliant service and food. Quality is unbelievable and Myles / Miles was the best with service and quality within the establishment.

Great atmosphere, the selection of music was varied and enjoyable during our lunch there. The food was served quickly and with a smile. The staff were very friendly - Miles was super and was very friendly and helpful. Thank you!

Popped in for a Sunday roast with my daughter. it was quiet but pleasant. We had a choice of turkey, gammon or lamb. nice to have different choices from the usual. We both chose gammon. all very delicious and generous portions. Staff friendly and helpful. We will be definitely returning.

Friendly staff & the food is fabulous❣️ Sunday roast was delicious & OMG, sausage & mash with red wine gravy & crispy carrot skins, to die for😋 Quiz night is fun & they donated the entry fee this week to my Community Food Project 💜

Pub deserves more than 3 stars so why did I give it only 3? Food was good, drinks fine, staff friendly & pleasant, place clean. BUT product knowledge poor .I asked if the steak & kidney pudding was made on premises or bought in was told 'I dont know - I'll go and check' (it was bought in but we thought we'd try it and it was very good). After the meal I requested an Espresso and asked what brandies they had was told 'I don't know i'll go and check' then another bar person was told to serve me so I repeated the question as to what brandies....the bar person looked at me and said whisky...I said 'no what brandies have you' I recieved a blank look as the person didnt know what brandy was! Then I was told the coffee machine wasnt working but another bar staff nember said 'yes it is...' so the Espresso was served in a largish cup with no saucer,no sugar and no biscuit....finally I was told the brandy they had was Courvoisier...NO OTHER...will go back but hopefully this lengthy review will help train staff in product knowledge. This is meant to be constructive and good luck going forward.

The Vansittart Arms is a very local pub. And I am talking spitting distance. Before the new team, it was dirty, the glasses were unclean and it was super unfriendly. And to top it off, the bloody garden heaters “never worked” (I think they were turned off). That said, tonight a friend and I went for a couple of drinks, ended up having some beer, wine, chips and a pie and we cannot complain. Staff lovely. Food very good. Pie delicious. Chips exceptional. Always up for supporting local pubs. My request as a punter is know my name and treat me with a friendly response. And make sure the glasses are clean. In turn, I will sing the praises of where I drink and eat. Thanks to the Vansittart team. Keep it up. 👍🏼

I'm not one to usually take the time to write a review but we popped along to the Vansittart Arms' launch night (new owners have recently taken over) and we had such a lovely experience. The free nibbles (particularly enjoyed the scotch eggs) and prosecco were a lovely touch. The new landlady Victoria and owner Chris took the time to welcome everyone and get to the know the locals which was really appreciated. It was nice to see Miles still behind the bar as we always enjoy chatting to him. The pub itself is looking refreshed, clean, tidy and welcoming. It even has the addition of some new TVs which I'm sure will go down with sports fans like my husband! The pub was buzzing with energy and it looks like this continued over the weekend - a busy pub garden every time I've walked past. Nice to see this pub get a new lease of life!

Absolutely terrible!!! Haven't been in two long hd and I'm totally disgusted with the place. I was so disappointed. Used to be a nice place back in the day. Food was horrible and the staff that was on was sooo rude and had attitude. I didn't even feel like I could complain, or say anything they made me feel so unwelcome. Also it looks tidy outside but inside is very dirty. It never used to be like this. So heartbreaking

Came in for some food with da misses, food wasn’t to the best standard. What ruined it for me and ma misses was the staff. It’s was only 1 man the ‘manager’. Very rude not really helpful, it seemed like he didn’t want to be there and just go home. This is really upsetting as I’ve been coming for years. This is the pub I grew up around. But food standards have really gone downhill and same with staff. Don’t think I’ll be returning after the way the manager was acting.

Sunday lunch, absolutely amazing, complements to the chef. Staff all very happy to help. All in all amazing place to go. Highly recommended.

Open Mic hosted by Damien Delahunty Superb night with world class artists performing. What a great night in an unexpected place.

The Sunday lunch was the best I've had in a long time. Had a few ok meals here before in the last year but this new chef is just the best! High recommend

The best sunday dinner out in a while .. proper crispy roast potatoes. Meat you can cut . Nothing preheated.. well done Chef . I understand your new please stay .. you are my local pub and the food had previously been a bit hit and miss . Today was scrumptious 😋

Great pub, best Sunday lunch in Windsor in my opinion. Excellent quiz night on Weds, surprising it’s so quiet at weekends?

Just so disappointing, completely unloved pub. Have tried to contact the owner to understand what's happening but still not responded. No food, at least on this visit there was some drink. Please please let's get this pub back to where it was. Such a shame as so many locals on your doorstep 😔

Food was amazing, all staff are very welcoming. Perfect experience having a Sunday dinner with the Family. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meal in a great environment.

We came here today for the first time. Food was plentiful, well cooked, lots of choice with roast potatoes, beetroot, leeks, sweet potato mash, great meat too. Fab service, the waiters worked really hard.

Great refurbishment of what was a run down pub. Friendly staff. 3 mainstream cask ales but they were very well kept. The “Ale Collector” card gives you a free 8th pint (after paying for the previous 7). Multiple visits allowed 😂

I asked for an extra Yorke pudding with my Sunday Lunch and they said if I left a review I could have one… Bribery works. SO Now I have had a lovely Sunday dinner with the Extra Yorke pudding .. i am a man of word so I can now say that it’s a top Sunday Lunch and very nice.. not been here for a few years and it’s well worth a visit with a good section (and the yorkies are great too)

Amazing Sunday roast. Probably best I’ve had and my son agreed! Really tasty and good portion size. Will be back.

Popped in for a Sunday roast as recently moved to area. Really pleased I did - was very impressed. Staff friendly. Nice atmosphere and the meat and roast potatoes were the best I’ve had. SO good.

Sunday Roast was delicious!! :-). Friendly, helpful service. Great pub! Also, dogs welcome, which is fabulous - Ted loved the complimentary Bonio ;-)

The food and service were both poor. The Yorkshire puddings were flat and hard. One of the desserts arrived 10 minutes after everyone else had finished theirs. They had run out of coffee. The manager was apologetic and offered us free drinks but I wish we'd gone somewhere else.

Very experience food which was very average - 1 beer scampi and chips and a salad - £25!!! Looked like it came out my home oven when was served

WOW!! Absolutely amazing Sunday roast, you will not find a better roast anywhere Crispy herb roasties, melt in the mouth meats (we had the quad!! All 5 meats) Roasted veg and proper roasting juices for the gravy, huge portions too DO NOT MISS OUT!

Lovely Sunday Roast, the quad is a favourite. The garden is really lovely, will definitely be coming back once it warms up a little. The chef even made our little one some food off menu because he is a bit fussy.

Visited here Sunday because we heard the roast was supposed to be excellent. It didn’t disappoint, will definitely book again soon

No food all week, your website should say so! It doesn't. And staff are NOT friendly. Some might be but not those we met tonight who bluntly told us there was no food, simple as that!

AMAZING! Had a delicious 6 course Christmas day lunch here with my husband and my 3 year old ( 3 courses for the little one) Lovely atmosphere, super friendly staff, food was so delicious. Will be back again for a Sunday lunch! Abi and the...

Not great…I’ve come to this pub several times over the years and always enjoyed the food. This was my first time eating there since the owners changed hands and I was looking forward to it as they seem to pride themselves on their roasts saying...

Staff are committed to give a good service. Gave me a hard time to choose from the menu. Delighted to have fish and chips. Tender and delicious in a thin and crisp batter plus the best hand cut chips. One of the best in Windsor....

I’ve been coming to this pub for nearly four decades and seen many changes. The interior and exterior refurbishment this year is to a decent standard and the website is polished. However, I recently organised a get together of former colleagues and decided to message...

I had initially came to these premises with a reserved feeling however, the food is 10/10 with complements to the chef and all staff have made our night!! We highly recommend coming here and I will definitely be visiting this establishment again!!!

went there for a birthday lunch after being let down by another pub, and I'm glad to have found this little gem. Definitely recommend and will be coming back.

This is our friends’ ‘local’ so I’m giving it the benefit of the doubt with 3* (although they are lager drinkers…) Ordered two pints of Pride - I’m originally a Londoner so I was almost weaned on the stuff - which were cloudy. OK, it...

Nice re vamp of the vannie inside and out. We had burgers and wine, very nice. Good service, would highly recommend. The only thing was the big group of parents with very young kids running round screaming constantly. Not the pubs fault but they were...

Great service and lovely food, roast beef was gorg and potatoes were crispy and golden, chef was a proper stud too x

We came for our Sunday roast. Food was beautiful, very big portions. Staff was very friendly and attentive. We will be back soon.

Staff are super friendly, always really accommodating and chatty. Food was amazing, had a roast before and tried the fish and chips this time. Both times amazing and really enjoyed the food!

First visit for a couple of years having previously been a regular once a week for a couple of drinks and some food. Firstly the up grade of the garden and interior is great. So having seen that my expectations where high. Unfortunately after the...

Served by Caitlin today and they gave us perfect pints everytime. Very time efficient and informative about drink options. Thanks Caitlin!

Tried this pub for the first time since it reopened recently. Massive improvement, great food, lovely decor and good service. Will definitely be back for Sunday lunch which I’ve been told is excellent now. Highly recommend x Sarah Telford and family

We came for a family meal for the first time since the reopening and honestly could not fault it. Amazing service, really nice selection of wines & beers, and the food was to die for. It was the best meal out we have had in...

Haven't been since the pub changed hands but booked a table to catch up with a group of friends between Christmas and New Year. We called to reconfirm numbers in the morning as we had had a couple of Covid cancellations and all seemed fine...

The garden outside was lovely.The Sunday Roast and the fish & chips were delicious. Definitely coming back.

We were recommended this pub by our b&b hostess who is just a 5 minutes walk away. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted by Alex…….very friendly guy with lots of banter! The food was really good & great service. I wanted a pudding...

I came in for a few drinks with my friends from out of town and we all felt very welcome as the young lady and the young gentleman made us feel more than welcome and had the whole table laughing, I was unbelievably impressed with...

I was on my way home from shopping. I ordered a small brie cheese with pine nuts and sun dried tomatoes Delicious I was short changed by the waitress but it was quickly sorted... Filled the empty spot... All good!

It's pricey for starters but the food is such a let down. Chicken Kiev over cooked, chicken gougons hard as rock, seasoned fries are just skinny chips and bullets, vegetables over cooked and soggy. Sorry but at those prices u need to do better

The chicken burger was awesome. Obviously battered and breaded to order as well as the onion rings! Chilli jam and garlic citrus mayo a great combination for such a fresh product. 😋 coming back for more

Great pub, great service, Alex was an absolute delight and very helpful. Would definitely recommend coming here for a few. Feels very warm and welcoming.

John, Ivan and the team have made me so welcome here. The Velyins has become my new favourite pint and the new menu is exciting and different. Great Sunday roasts and don't forget to ask for homemade scotch eggs and sausage rolls 😋

It was great to be out with friends again and the service here made it even better. I booked a table and had a confirmation within a few hours. The table was reserved for us and the food was great. Our table manager was called...

Lovely staff, great affordable yet well presented and generous meals. Overall great atmosphere! Would come again

Great local pub in Windsor, that has new management. Just started serving food. Highly recommend the Sunday lunch, I had the veggie option. A spinach & mushroom tartlet with all the usual accomplices including cauliflower cheese. Even better was the chocolate brownie with crunchy biscuity...

I stopped by for a late lunch, early dinner after a day of shopping I ordered a bacon and melted brie on a French stick. It came with chips, salad and sweet chutney.. It was fabulous. I tried desparately to finish as it was so...

Llevé a mi madre a un improvisado asado del domingo. Yo tenía carne de res ella tenía cordero. Enorme porción y deliciosa. Si compras un asado del domingo, obtienes el postre gratis, así que comiste un delicioso brownie de chocolate con chocolate caliente todo por 12. 95 cada uno!No puedo esperar para ir de nuevo

The Thai menu is already legendary and a great welcome is guaranteed but the pub now has a fantastic outside space to take advantage of the good weather something that has been missing for a long time.

We had the best roast dinner plus dessert for 12.95. Great beer. Friendly staff. What more can one say, except we can't wait to go back.

Este pub estaba a solo 5 minutos de nuestra casa de huéspedes y a 10 minutos del castillo de Windsor. Tenía un ambiente muy agradable, muy concurrido pero no una larga espera para la comida, que era excelente. La señora escocesa Helen detrás del bar era agradable y todo el resto del personal también.

Después de haber realizado el viaje de 35 horas desde Brisbane, Australia en avión y en autocaravana a Windsor, nuestro grupo de 5 tuvo nuestra primera comida en el Reino Unido aquí. Se había hecho una reserva desde Australia y el gerente incluso cumplió mi pedido de un pastel de chocolate sorpresa ya que ese era el cumpleaños de mi esposo ese día. El personal era educado, amable y servicial. La comida estuvo deliciosa. Las instalaciones limpias. Gracias por hacer que sea una noche agradable.

We went to this pub for dinner with other members of our family on a Saturday night.We had booked a table but there was a bit of a mix up as other people were sitting there but we did manage to sort it out. Apart from that we had a very nice evening and the food was excellent. Everyones meals were tasty and delicious so well done to the chef.I am so often dissappointed when eating out in pubs but this was certainly not the case at the Vansittart Arms.

Great job done by the owners of this lovely pub with very friendly staff and very good value for money

He estado viniendo a Vansittart por un tiempo ahora, principalmente un lunes para la noche de damas a mitad de precio, y debo decir que tiene una excelente relación calidad-precio y que el personal del bar Harry y Sinead son muy acogedores, amables y muy respetuosos que recomendaría Este pub para todos y personas de todas las edades.

He estado yendo a este pub durante muchos años ya que vivo localmente. Esta noche me atendió una camarera muy educada que ha estado trabajando allí durante bastante tiempo, pero después de estar allí por una hora o más, terminé siendo atendida por una señora que no había visto antes con el pelo largo que no estaba recogido ( muy antihigiénico). Estaba esperando en el bar cuando la señora dijo: "Estaré contigo en un minuto", pero luego desapareció por un tiempo bastante largo. Cuando ella regresó, le pregunté por qué había una espera tan larga y su respuesta fue "bueno, estamos cortos de personal esta noche" en un tono muy grosero y agudo. Nunca me habían hablado de esta manera en la que creía que era un encantador pub familiar.

Well what do it say after a title like that. The food has been exceptional every time I've been. Every week the Specials seem to get better.

Este es un buen pub. La oferta de comida es básica pero buena y tiene una hermosa cervecería al aire libre. Es una pena que el alto nivel de mal humor y la falta de calor de detrás de la barra arruinen el lugar. Esto no es una observación única, lo he visto varias veces y viene de la parte superior. Si va a ser un miembro del equipo que mira al cliente y un líder detrás de un bar, intente parecer que quiere estar allí, ¡que no le está haciendo un favor ni una sonrisa a sus clientes! Finalmente, sus clientes votarán con sus pies a pesar de los otros puntos positivos de los pubs.

Aunque fuera del centro de la ciudad, vale la pena visitar The Vaansittart Arms en Windsor. He estado varias veces a la hora del almuerzo, aunque no en la noche. Siempre he encontrado al personal servicial y amable, y disfruté de la comida tradicional de pub con un buen servicio. Recomendaría este pub, y siempre me gusta ir allí.

I was looking forward to the bubble and squeak, bacon and eggs. Whatever it says on the plastic bag and however long they microwave it, bubble and squeak it ain't. Sort of big croquettes with anonymous green specks. Not helped by strips of salty leather and rancid-tasting hollandaise. Eggs were OK! All-Fullers beer (no genuine guest) was well-kept.

Acariciar tres perros cerca del bar. Esto fue hace una década, pero volvemos en nuestras visitas anuales al Reino Unido, la noche antes de que dejemos nuestro coche de alquiler en Heathrow, a media hora de camino por la carretera a Runnymede. La comida fue incluso mejor este año. . urra.

It's a nice family pub that has a excellent variety of different foods. Staff are friendly. Choices of beers is excellent.

Probé la mayoría del desayuno caliente que se sirve en varios pubs y cafeterías alrededor de Windsor, pero este es el mejor. Barato pero de gran calidad y el personal siempre es amable y está feliz de ayudar. No hay problema para intercambiar elementos en el menú si algo no es de tu gusto.

This is my local! Excellent honest food,great selection of drinks and beer, wonderful atmosphere. All round brilliant pub!

This is a fantastic little pub with great food and great beer ! All down to the couple that run it .... it’s a rare thing now a days to find somewhere with clean pipes friendly service and a warm welcome .

Fuimos allí en julio de 2017 y fueron recibidos por un personal amable en un ambiente estupendo. El menú de comida era estupenda (ver fotos) y optamos por burbujas y chirriar y una pizza. Ambos fueron servidos con rapidez, porque era un martes por la noche las bebidas vino gratis con la comida principal, así que fue una estupenda relación calidad-precio. Recomiendo encarecidamente comer aquí o llamar para una bebida si te alojas en la zona.

Lovely traditional pub serving superb food. Welcoming and warm atmosphere. Good value for money. There's a standard menu plus Specials Board. Beer Garden too.

Nuestra última noche en Windsor, comimos en el pub inglés. El servicio era un poco lento, pero el ambiente. Cinco de nosotros pedimos el pescado y patatas fritas y me dieron la sopa de pollo y maíz dulce. La sopa estaba bien, pero no era lo que esperaba.

I have been here a lot over the years but was a bit disappointed last time I went in. It could well have been the time or the day or it might have been that there are better pubs around.

This is a welcoming pub about 15 minutes walk from central Windsor. I have been here a few times. If you are looking for a good pub lunch in Windsor that is fairly priced this is a good place to go.

He ido a Windsor por una semana y fuimos a VA al menos tres veces. Excelente comida y cerveza, pero la atención de las camareras y los propietarios es el mejor. La gente es muy cálida y amable. Volveré siempre que puedo.

Un salto en el último domingo para salir de la lluvia, después de haber estado en sólo una vez antes de hace muchos años. Decidimos parar para comer algo, ya que no estaba muy lleno, y lo que una decisión que resultó ser!

La adecuada es un cómodo Vansittart pub, popular entre los lugareños. Sirve una buena selección de cervezas y comida a precios razonables y se ajusta a todos los requisitos para una noche con amigos. La comida era deliciosa, caliente y buena relación calidad-precio!

Cuatro de nosotros visitamos un sábado almuerzo con nuestros dos Yorkshire Terriers disfrutamos caminos. Llamé con antelación para comprobar que eran perros y estaba muy tomada por el personal hospitalario. Parece ser un popular pub en el corazón de la comunidad. Había una gran variedad de clientes que van desde un caballero su lectura de periódicos de mayores grupos de familias con niños pequeños. Nos pareció que la comida de pub tradicional en el menú simple estaba por encima de la media. El joven cocinero trajo la comida a la mesa y es claramente una ventaja enorme para el equipo, ya que la comida estaba bien presentada y había sido preparado con cuidado. Esta fue una experiencia alentadora en un día frío que me recordó por qué debemos apoyar a nuestros pubs locales!

What a nice place. Travelling to London on the M4, searching for a pub for lunch and what a find. Really friendly service, good food and a great range of drinks. Recommended.

Stopped in for a couple of Pints. The young girl behind the bar was friendly but the place itself looks like it needs some work. Needs some TLC

The food there is great, Realiable and honest, exactly what you need. However the pub itself is looking a bit old and could do with a bit of a face lift. Cold be a cracking pub, but just feels like its let itself go a bit. If you need some food and a quick pint, worth a visit for sure.

Recently visited this local pub in Windsor. The atmosphere was warm, friendly and inviting. The bar staff, especially (J) and (Chloe) were most accommodating. Well recommended and will be back again!
