The best restaurants serving Default food in Speen West Berkshire South East

My husband booked Damson for our 1 year wedding anniversary and what a memorable experience that was! The food was some of the best we’ve had. Chefs that seriously know what they’re doing! Lovely staff, perfect ambience. Couldn’t have asked for more. Will 100% be back and singing your praises! The handwritten card for our anniversary was a special touch. Thank you again. 🤍

Superbe diner dans un restaurant rénové avec gout. Nous n'avions pas bien compris l'étoile Michelin de l'ancien Blackbird mais sommes très étonné de l'absence d'un 1ère étoile si nous regardons de près le menu "hommage" dégusté hier soir. Tout est parfait, des ingrédients de base de haute qualité et une cuisine élaborée parfaite. Des assemblages de saveurs très justes comme l'ananas Victoria avec le jambon de Bayonne assaisonné d'une vinaigrette dosée à la perfection. Que dire du canard laqué maison et du dessert à la rhubarbe confite . En un seul mot tout est parfait. Surtout ne changez rien. L'erreur des inspecteurs Michelin sera vite réparée.

A fabulous pub. Fantastic service and the Sunday lunch was absolutely delicious. Splendid starters and then incredible roast beef with a great selection of vegetables. We were far too full to have a pudding, so we'll have to save that for next time! Very highly recommended.

I had high expectations for this restaurant due to its Michelin star and excellent TripAdvisor reviews. Unfortunately, my experience was deeply disappointing. The most serious issue was the staff's handling of my severe tree nut allergy. Despite explicitly informing our waiter about my cashew allergy, he served cashews to our table during drinks before dinner. The mere presence of the nuts caused my eyes to become itchy, though thankfully I didn't have a more serious reaction. The food quality itself was questionable. The gravy served with the roast had an unusual, unpleasant taste. The restroom facilities were also poorly maintained, according to my husband. Given the premium price point of £180+, the overall experience was extremely poor value for money. The combination of potentially dangerous allergy handling, questionable food quality, and poor hygiene standards means I won't be returning.

Was fortunate enough to experience this wonderful restaurant for a work dinner as part of a team of chefs. The service was impecable, the food and wine were without fault and a pure display of skill and passion for there craft. Without doubt i will be returning, an thankyou for a truly memorable experience!

We went for a belated birthday meal for one of our party members. When we arrived we were taken to our table and were served very quickly. Half of us ordered starters and they came out as expected, if not better. The mains had been ordered at the same time as the starters and we found that we did not have to wait too long after our starter plates had been cleared. The food was extremely tasty! We were catered for as we needed for the party. OF COURSE we ordered desserts! As a party, we felt that we were not rushed to finish our 3 courses and had a lovely meal in a very comfortable atmosphere.

I’ve been here before. I really like this place. It’s in an unexpected location it’s really convenient and nice to visit. The pizzas are fantastic and really good value. They also do a special on a Sunday. The staff cannot help you enough. They seem really happy and proud of what they’re serving. The only thing I would change is put beer on the tap.

I must say, the golfers are extremely friendly here. A group of them were repeatedly yelling, 'Excuse me' to attract the attention of me and my human mummy. It took us a while to realise the racous yelling (unbefitting to the location) was at us. When a woman shrilled, 'Hello', we thought perhaps it was us they were so eager to greet. Having no time to waste even for such friendliness, Mummy simply waved back politely but briefly at their enthusiastic waving, and we continued our journey. Thankfully, the 100 or so geese that frequent the lawn flew away and didn't want to befriend us. We were neither of us, in a sociable mood.

Amazing Friday night Meze experience, Live music, singing, dancing, and delicious, healthy food brought to your table all throughout the night, just amazing!!

Very welcoming and friendly, i have had many enjoyable afternoon's/evenings there with family and friends, bonus there also very dog friendly....

Beautiful pub with good service and food ... just do not expect mobile data coverage or even wifi, this is off the grid.

Oh wow! We weren’t expecting such an amazing experience! We’ve just moved to the area and been trying out the local places to eat from pubs to Michelin Star restaurants. It was a Sunday evening so we usually find this is not the best day to try a new restaurant but it was the only day we had! This however, didn’t influence our experience on this occasion! We were truly impressed with the food ( my duck was delicious as too was my wife’s, crispy skin salmon)! The wine list was extensive and more unusual than normal establishments. The service was friendly and just right too! Highly recommend A+++. Thank you

Omid was amazing! Very attentive and helpful

Stayed before and a regular user of Butcombe pubs for stays - hold Butcombe loyalty card. As I sit here now waiting for my breakfast - 30 minutes and counting. Chefs bell dinging away while the 1 member of staff runs around trying to serve : take orders / make coffee and deal with deliveries, check people out. Wife’s eggs just arrived cold and hard. Now attempting to send them back. Not good enough

After complaint ( wine arrived without top and tasted like it had been mixed & steak was fatty) I received the following by email - nothing during dinner though.“ I am equally disappointed with your experience here at The Hare & Hounds as you are. It is simply not what you should expect from us.Given you took time out of your day to provide feedback, it gives me hope there is a chance to win you back and make this right. Greg, it’s important to me that you know that hospitality and making my guests happy is what keeps me going, and I do not take negative feedback lightly.Please allow me some time to regroup with my team and get back to you”Never heard anything back and when I tried to reply to email it was a ‘no-reply’ email address.For a £135 bill ( for 2 people, excluding the service charge) I expected a lot better !
