Harden's survey result
Summary
“A brilliant location” – on a picture-perfect stretch of lush Thames riverbank – is the justification for maintaining the listing of this Thames Valley veteran, on the fringe of Goring. On a sunny day, there are few nicer places to be. Its “classic Italian menu”? Not much commented on (nor, to be fair, criticised) and not the main point.
Summary
“On a summer's day, there’s nowhere better in Britain than this place for lunch by the Thames. Sublime!” – a gorgeous riverside location on the fringe of Goring is the USP of this Thames Valley veteran. Its cooking has turned Italian in recent years, and it’s no longer as ‘foodie’ as once it was. As of November 2021, its website reports it’s ‘closed for maintenance until March 2022’ but still taking bookings for events.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
