The best restaurants serving British food in Aldermaston West Berkshire South East

Excellent service from a very enthusiastic young man. Unfortunately several dishes were not up to the usual standard. The pork rib eye and beef feather were very good and presented well. The tandoori prawns on Naan bread were a poor substitute for the old garlic prawns and more reminiscent of a TV dinner. The chicken schnitzel presentation was poor. It came without the coronation mayonnaise and there could be more imagination with the salad which was just little gem cut up. Flavour, however, was good. The hot drink with small pudding was a winner as usual and delicious.

Four of us had an early dinner and had a great time. The food and service, by Aimee, was very good. We couldn’t fault the experience

Truly sad to hear this pub is closing. The food, service and atmosphere was always superb and I hope it re-opens as a pub again in the future.

A first visit - which will not be the last. We visited on a Sunday, and from the moment we arrived till the time left we felt welcomed. The food was so good, the service was fast and the staff attentive. The staff were a credit to this place. So often a venue will put a really nice looking picture of the food on the website, and so often it doesn't match - This was not the case at The Butt Inn

HYGIENE ALERT: one of the members of Subway staff today (Asian male) used the toilet in the shop and did not wash their hands afterwards (flushed and exited straight away, wash basin was dry, did not hear dryer through the door).

Absolutely amazing meal today (roast beef ) and staff fabulous. Couldn’t do enough for you. Visited with my elderly parents, and the staff were great with them especially as my Dad has a really bad speech impediment.

Very disappointing - partner and I with our little one cam out for breakfast and cake. Arrived around 10ish. We’re not greeted despite our clear confusion with the new and unclear set up. The new set up has created a self service style arrangement which is clearly designed as one way - but cleaning materials left out lead us to believe we should be avoiding the area. No utensils were left out to serve, and no space to place the tray so I had to carry a loaded tray, serve using utensils from another food stuff we had appropriated. When it came to paying, I had to remind them to give me cutlery and tissues. 2 scones, a flavourless piece of cake, two small coffees and a children’s juice can to just shy of £25. Such a shame - used to be a real treat, but as other have commented, hilliers have ruined what was a fine institution.

We have been here and eaten probably six times this year and I absolutely rate it. The staff are always happy and helpful (especially the younger ones which I thought might be a bit surley)! The atmosphere was lovely and sometimes there is a big queue but hey that’s not the end of the world, if you want quick service go to McDonald’s (debatable I know!!) We last had an afternoon tea, which was lovely, the only thing I would suggest to put you above everyone else, is to provide a selection of sandwiches you can choose when ordering, I would have an afternoon tea again if I could have tuna or cheese! But I won’t as you don’t. The actual garden centre is way better than Rosebournes which was just a glorified gift shop with restaurant. The selection of plants and outdoor furniture etc is superb. Keep going Hillyers the Weyhill store has really benefited, although some of the Rosebourne staff you still have are a bit on the miserable side the newer staff are far more helpful, you are doing great!
