The best restaurants serving French food in South Bucks South East

Had cappuccino offee and a cake. Coffee was poor (bitter, small), cake was ok. Had to go up to collect cake after coffees had been brought to table without. Cost moderate but not a lot less than much better nearby. Hopefully was off day, but they will have to up their game to attract me in again.

We were entertaining friends from Australia for a few days and thought this quintessential English home / experience would hit the mark. Started - Hardly a warm welcome on arrival . Had to look for staff in entrance hall and when we informed lady at desk that we had lunch reservation she seemed surprised and said she would find someone who would help us with pre lunch drinks. Then got back to the pc. Lunch choices started with prawn cocktail. Small / tiny prawns with one large unpeeled on top of basically lettuce and a few others bits of salad . Very uninspiring. Roasts selection was made by 3/4 of us . Very basic - only cauliflower cheese seemed to exceed expectations . Local pub would have surpassed the main lunch. Wine mega over priced . Basic rose (2021 whispering angel )priced £ 20 in Sainsbury’s at £88 plus service charge, crazy . At least it arrived with ice bucket as also wasn’t that chilled on arrival . Our overall experience was so disappointing . Our guests enjoyed the view but £700 for 4 for Sunday lunch was not great value and we won’t be back or recommend.

Celebrated our engagement, but also our 4 year anniversary, last night with a meal for two at Skindles. The location of the restaurant is stunning, over looking a part of the River Thames providing lovely scenic views. The service provided was great, everybody from bar staff to wait staff were very friendly, put forward great recommendations, and clearly had a rapport with a lot of other patrons. To start, along with the bread and olives, I had the prawn cocktail. I was very grateful that the prawns were deshelled, and found them to be large and juicy. For my main, I had the sirloin steak (rare) and sweet potato fries. The steak was cooked well, but the sweet potato fries were king - I don't know how they made them so crispy yet soft. The dish also came with a grilled little gem lettuce - I personally don't understand the 'trend', it didn't add or take away anything from the dish. I was full by the time dessert came, but It's always the best course and it did not disappoint. The crème brûlée and raspberry sorbet was truly divine - shame I had to share it! To round things off, the staff bought out a plate with a small treat congratulating us on our engagement. From a cost aspect, I felt some items were fair, others probably a bit over priced, but on the whole it was a really nice experience and would recommend visit.

We stayed in the magnificent Spring Cottage and had dinner in the hotel. The facilities were superb and the staff and service levels were second to none. Dinner was also a triumph. Really can’t fault any aspect of our stay at this stunning property and the team that make it so special.

Lo único bueno de este lugar es el personal. La carne era demasiado hechos, así como las hortalizas (que también eran frío), y las patatas estaban medio cocinado. Y 3,25 para una botella pequeña de vino espumoso agua?! Para su crédito, el camarero no me preguntaron por qué yo apenas tocado mi comida, pero sólo le quitaron el cargo de servicio de la factura cuando de hecho debería haber acreditado mi comida que sobrara. dire! Hemos aprendido la lección y reservar con antelación en el Swan la próxima vez.
