White's Windmill Cafe in South Oxfordshire

I used to go there on a Friday night, it was a good night but they changed the DJ and the new Friday DJ is awful, It's now last on the list for a night out.

A lovely morning ride out with a lady biker who just bought her first big bike. Great value breakfast! Staff were keen to please and cleared the outside tables where we sat very promptly. I will certainly be back.

After not visiting this pub for a while, I decided to come for dinner and unfortunately it isn’t the gem it used to be. Firstly, the pub hasn’t been updated in the ten years I have been visiting with basic furnishings, old carpets and lack of paint. It is also very cold in the pub and as we are transitioning into spring from a long winter, the sunny weather can be misleading and by the evenings it is chilly and the pub has always lacked in warmth. But as I am paying for a cosy and warm experience in ac country pub, I expect to feel warm and not feel cold. The staters were lovely though lacks presentation and garnish. The mains were poor and it makes you wonder why the pub itself was so empty. The Thai curry was anemic, and the eggs on the ham, egg and chips were poor with crispy bottoms. It isn’t a Japanese donburi bowl where they should have crispy bottoms. And as a chef myself, I know the difference between cheap cheese and cheeses worth their price and unfortunately the lasagna was of very poor quality. It had been overcooked so much that the cheese had split and become claggy. The mince wasn’t even in a rich tomato sauce and was absolutely tasteless and as it’s a lasagne it should have a béchamel sauce to make it go creamy. If it did have one, it must have evaporated. The chips were nice though overwhelming on the plates and as the menu states it comes with a side salad - seven leaves for not equate to a side salad which has come out of a mixed salad bag. Overall very poor quality. The service was good and the prices are good but the quality of food and the quality of the setting does not reflect the price.

Top food, try the Salt and Pepper prawns... They are amazing. They only take cash, so be prepared. Favourite Chinese in Thame. Hands down!

Great Sunday lunch. Good portion size. Plenty of veg, which I love. The only negative for me was the gravy, I believe there was quite a lot of pepper in there and that is not to my taste. The staff were lovely and very friendly landlord. Bonus today, live music as there was a party in the courtyard. Will definitely be back
