High StreetDrinks & Nightlife
Beautiful candlelit pub with excellent food. It's got a simply magical feel to it and such a great location just next to Windsor Castle and entrance to the Park. A perfect afternoon is a walk in Windsor great park and then settling in for the evening in one of the candle-lit nooks for a typically English Roast lunch - just be sure to book before you go because it fills up pretty fast.
