I was drawn to the Drury House, Windsor, by its location: a fantastic old building just a stone's throw away from the castle. Sadly, that was the only positive. The food was barely edible and reminded one of school dinners on a bad day. The garlic mushrooms were oversalted, the soup of the day non-descript. However, it was the main course which was the major disappointment. The collapsed steak and kidney pudding with pulped and chewy meat seemed to have come from a tin. The roast potatoes were undercooked and soggy. The fish and chips were dry and flavourless. Suffice to say, we did not hand around for pudding. The Drury House is a curious establishment. Despite looking like a pub, there is no bar; the route to the toilet takes one up a winding staircase passing two eerily empty restaurant rooms; and the food is sub-standard. What a shame to waste such a fantastic location.

My wife and I recently visited London and had an opportunity to visit Windsor on two different occasions during our trip. On both trips to Windsor (once to take the castle tour and the other for a day of shopping) we went to The Drury for lunch. We went back the second time one week after the first just because of the excellent food, atmosphere and service. Highly recommend this restaurant on Church Street in Windsor.

Fabulous! Absolutely marvelous! So old and quaint. Fabulous meals, choclate cake and hot cocoa. I have visited (from America) 2 times, several years apart, and would highly recommend this little restaurant.

A Gem of a find opposite Exit gates to Windsor Castle in cobbled streets
A beautiful wood panelled interior with 3 dining rooms over 3 floors - unfortunateley loos were on the 2nd floor but the good value home cooked food more than made up for it. We started with 'old fashioned sherry rose marie sauce prawn cocktails - excellent.I had Chicken pie with roast potatoes and vegetables, my wife had lamb stew and dumplings, which is a dish not to be found easily on restaurant menus. The lamb was tender and the dumplings reminiscent of school dinners. The bakewell tart was obviousely homemade, with good old fashioned custard. Generally a good experience without feeling ripped off in a predominately tourist area. We would definitely return and have recommended it to our family members.
