Top British restaurants in Windsor, United Kingdom

This cozy restaurant is a gem to old Windsor! My wife and I had the early bird dinner and the food and the prize are both absolutely amazing!

An absolutely wonderful experience celebrating my Mum’s special birthday. Madeline was a superb host and very attentive. We opted for the Christmas menu and were blown away by the quality of the food. Thank you Ivy, Windsor - a memorable evening that we will cherish.

We had some starters to share and a main dish. We ordered the truffel arancinis which were really delightful, and the zucchini fritters. The fritters were not what I expected. It was ok but it was mostly just fried batter, no taste or texture of the zucchini unfortunately. We also both had the truffle burger. For a place like The Ivy I do expect a little better quality meat. The texture (very dense) and flavour (none) of the burger felt like it had come out of a factory & freezer. A little disappointing.

However, I love the interior and ambiance of the place!

I must have been to about 10 different Ivy's and this one was one of my favourites. Great location and great decor and layout. Having the Windsor castle just opposite was an added bonus.

We opted for burgers, and this was my first time having a burger from Ivy, it was tasty and well presented.

It was my friends birthday 🎂🎈 and she went for the calamari starter and The Ivy Chocolate Celebratory Bonmbe for dessert.

I will be back at some point!

Booked here after a day at Legoland. Food was great and the service was brilliant. Prices were very reasonable. What more can you ask for. Oh yes the amazing castle view. Highly recommended. Nachos were hands down best we have tasted.

Made a lunch reservation at The Ivy Windsor for before a long haul flight from Heathrow. Very courteous friendly service, deserving of the service charge. Food was in line with expectations, drinks were not of the same quality of the food but they did the job. Will be back.

Very nice restaurant, wonderfully decorated. The atmosphere is very cosy and warm. Staff were all very friendly and polite. Food was delicious and well presented. We will definitely be going back again soon.

We stopped here for lunch after visiting Windsor castle. It’s directly across the street from the castle. We had the fish make chips and the hunter’s chicken. Both were excellent. The atmosphere is classic British pub with beautiful interior decor and the standard hanging plants outside. Definitely check this place out when in Windsor

Great food

My husband and I stopped at The Duchess of Cambridge Pub before touring Windsor Castle.

I ordered the Steak and Ale Pie, and my husband ordered the Fish and Chips.

Our food was delicious, and our server was very nice.

I highly recommend this pub.

A friend had a big birthday coming up and the Ivy at Windsor is a safe bet for any special occasion.
Although the table wasn't quite ready, (we were early) we were quickly seated in and drinks order was taken.
Staff were happy to explain items on the menu and make helpful suggestions or advise on which items would go well together.
Although there are several vegetarian options on the main menu the Ivy offers a separate vegetarian and vegan menu if desired.
Great care is taken with the presentation of all dishes and every dish has a wow factor.

Really love the atmosphere and decor in the ivy! The staff were super friendly and had great recommendations. The menu has some great choices on there between the English and Asian menus. The cocktails were delicious! So was the cheese soufflé to start. I had the chicken Milanese for the main which was ok but quite bland. It is quite pricey but we went here for a treat! It is also wheelchair accessible if you let them know beforehand

We recently went to the Ivy, Windsor for afternoon tea. On arrival we were warmly greeted and taken to our table close to the front window, with a view of the castle.
I love the quirky decor inside, it's very bright and cheerful.
We ordered our drinks and were served our afternoon tea fairly promptly. It makes an impressive entrance with dry ice smoking from the top! The waiter explained the contents and left.
The food was very nice but I personally think a full size cup cake is a bit much for afternoon tea and would have preferred two smaller items.
I would have liked some fresh tea at some point but we didn't see a waiter again until it was time to pay. It was busy in there and may have been an oversight but it would have been nice to have had it offered.
A lovely place for a special occasion though and I would recommend giving it a visit.

So a birthday dinner.
We booked for 7pm, arrived 10 minutes early. We were sat at table quickly and asked about a drink order. That was dealt with menu's given, then we sat for around 15-20 minutes until our order was taken. I ordered the salted squid ,it was ok ish. Little over cooked and chewy ,little bland. My wife and daughter had fairly good starters. The plates taken quickly after we finished. Then mains came out , I had 16oz rump with mashed potatoes and some mushrooms and greens on the side. The steak was very nice cooked well, the mash was ok ish, veg was all good. My wife and daughter had the fillet steak, this was cooked ok, the Medium Rare was more Blue, but my wife liked it. She had the triple cooked chips ( very nice ) my daughter the fries (not bad). We finished our meal and were offered desserts. My wife and daughter had Eton mess with a Windsor twist... this wasn't great, apparently tasted artificially sweet . I had a single scoop of vanilla icecream. They charged the three scoop price only £3.. but it's the principle of it. So we had 3 starters, 3 mains, two sides. And one and a half desserts. All for just over £180... Will we go back. Probably not, far to many others to try and it wasn't amazing.

Best meal we have had out in ages. Went for the early dinner set menu which was great value at £20 for two courses. The steak was amazing (rump can be tough but this was like butter). Dessert, poached peach, was outstanding. We were particularly impressed with the service which was warm, friendly and very attentive. Couldn't have asked for more.

Enjoyed a relaxing time with scrumptious eats and delightful brews. Staff members were accommodating and friendly. It is a worthwhile stop after visiting Windsor Castle!

Great English food, friendly staff and nice relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommend!

The sort of menu you read and really can’t choose because you’d like it all! We’ve had many a great evening here with top class service and delicious, well presented food. A great Windsor restaurant well located on St Leonard’s road, 5 mins from the castle.
There’s also a bookable private dining area upstairs. One of our favourites in Windsor.

Amazing pub and waygu burger so good i can't explain in words you need to try it yourself service and food 5 stars from me

Fantastically well done. Excellent, friendly service. All dishes were really well done, nothing over the top, but great execution. We actually preferred it to Hawksmoor. Really quite unexpected, but highly recommended. Great staff too. You should try it.

Food was really good, steak was cook to perfection, snails were yummy. Would prefer a thicker bread to soak the garlic oil tho! Our first time here and we went on a Valentine. Definitely another good choice around Windsor if craving steak besides Meat at The Parish.

It's a really nice atmosphere and food was of top quality. Steaks cooked perfectly. Great menu and drinks available

Amazing good quality juicy steaks that were cooked to perfection. The chateaubriand was exceptional for the price. Good selection of sides and plenty of sauces! Nice relaxed atmosphere, with really friendly staff. Highly recommended!

Really nice, traditional atmosphere. Although a bit touristy but that's due to the location. Service was good, quick and professional. The drink selection was good, reasonably priced. Food was alright but still decently priced given the location.

The only thing I would say needs improvement is the toilet(s). It's clean but if they could just place a reed diffuser or some better air freshener in there, would make a huge difference.

My friend took me here for the first time, was very impressed. From the outside it looks like a very high end restaurant but step inside and you find a friendly informal dinning experience. The staff were really helpful and service was quick. There's a large and varied menu with prices which were not too high considering the location.

Food came quickly with good sized portions.
Will definitely be visiting again to try something different.

My only negative point was the toilets were looking a little tired and could have done with refurbishment.
