The best restaurants in Goring South Oxfordshire South East

Good portion to me. I order Salt & Pepper Squid, Crispy Chilli Beef and special fried rice, it's absolutely delicious!

Fabulous pizza in the garden of the Catherine Wheel pub. Crispy thin base with lots of choice of toppings.

Awful customer service from the manager, from start to finish it was an awful visit. And my oh my we won’t be going back again ever and shall be recommending friends and family go to the local cafe in the high street. We were shocked at her lack of respect, rudeness and if we could have we would have walked out straight away. Avoid at all costs! Walk 50m up to the cafe on the high street.

We visit here as often as we can as we live 200 miles away. The staff always take their time to make us feel welcome and have a chat. I have never come across more accomodating staff and it's definitely the best curry I have ever eaten. My son has additional needs and has a limited diet. Without asking, the staff bring his poppadoms and rice out as quickly as possible so he isn't waiting for his food. And then as soon as he's finished his food they bring more. I couldn't recommend this restaurant and their amazing staff highly enough. To anybody that's thinking of visiting, do. You won't be sorry.

Fui tan pronto como reabierto, muy bien organizado, me sentí seguro, comida a buen precio justo, Graham tiene una cálida bienvenida y una sonrisa para todos. lo recomiendo altamente

This is a very good restaurant, with excellent food with extraordinary kind personnel. We were surprised to find this level of food in this rather small village

Had a lovely family lunch. Great pub in a beautiful location. The Sunday roast was delicious and a very enjoyble lamb breast. The servce was excellent. Thankyou.

We stopped by The Greyhound Inn in Whitchurch-on-Thames for a short break during our countryside walk, hoping to have a nice cup of tea. To our surprise, tea wasn't on offer, which is unusual for a traditional British pub. Nevertheless, we decided to stay and ordered a local shandy, sparkling water, and a portion of chips to share. The setting more than made up for the limited drinks menu. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a spacious interior that still feels cozy thanks to the tasteful decor and soft lighting. It’s the kind of place where you immediately feel comfortable and relaxed, whether you’re a local or just passing through like us. What really stood out was the garden area. There were plenty of tables available, and even on a pleasant day, it wasn’t overcrowded. It’s clearly a popular resting point for walkers and cyclists, and the garden is ideal for enjoying a drink or bite to eat in the fresh air. The shandy was refreshing and clearly made from local ingredients, which added a nice touch of authenticity. The chips were hot, crispy, and satisfying — just what we needed after a few miles of walking. The service was quick and friendly, and although we didn’t try the full menu, the dishes we saw being served around us looked hearty and appealing. All in all, The Greyhound Inn is a charming stop for a casual drink or meal, especially if you're out exploring the surrounding area. While tea lovers might be slightly disappointed, the pub’s atmosphere and comfort more than make up for it. We’ll certainly consider coming back — perhaps next time for a full lunch or dinner.

Really good coffee but £4.90 for an oat flat white? Edit: thanks for your quick and straightforward response.

This pub is at the moment in the process of new owners, still open for a pint, very limited food, good area for cyclists and walkers.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best fish and chips I’ve had in a very long time! The fish was fresh, the batter perfectly crispy, and the flavors were amazing. The chili sauce is a must-try—absolutely delicious! On top of that, the customer service was excellent. Highly recommend this place!

Very disappointing. No food available. Surly barman was " too busy" , despite pub being almost empty, even to heat up a pie on Saturday lunchtime. Nice fire only redeeming feature. Website needs updating.

I made a booking in Jan 2025 for a stay in May 2025. I received an e-mail cancelling my booking in late Apr 2025. I have tried to contact the Perch & Pike, but they won't respond. It would appear that you cannot rely on the Perch & Pike honoring their bookings. They seem to be happy cancelling your booking at short notice.

Turned up for a pre booked lunch with our friends, immediately after they were married in Newbury. Restaurant was closed. They had not bothered to notify us and 6 weeks later there is still no apology! Absolutely disgusting way to behave. Don’t deserve to be in business.

Hidden away in Goring thus proper pub, has tasty food, delivered by friendly people. But you’ll need to ask where the gents is!
