The Yew Tree, Arlington

Have to agree with the other comments about the surly barman ...someone buy him a personality or send him on a customer care course. Food ok but bit over priced for a pub menu.

The Wheatsheaf, Virginia Water

Attened on A busy Saturday night. Got last empty small table by the Gents, which you can smell each time the door opens.
Leffe on draught was a pleasant surprise.
Food order taken quite quickly but seemed to take a while to come, but the dessert order took even longer so much so given a comp coffee as way of saying so sorry after asking its whereabouts.Then the member of staff that took our order went home making it in possible to pay the bill, thought about just walking out.
Kid of a manager didnt seem in control and couldnt understand that his problems should not become mine.If you cant stand thr heat keep out of the kitchen.............oh he did

The Catherine Wheel, Henley-On-Thames

Visited on A Monday lunchtime.
Nice large pub and plenty of space to get away from the usual Wetherspoon undesirables.
Weird set up with the bars as real ales only seem available from one of them and having traipsed to the other bar in search of Abbot Ale found it wasnt on :-(
Ordered food arrived fairly quickly and all seemed ok although due to the very dim lighting was hard to tell. Think this is partly due to it trying to be a nightclub in the evenings obviously dimmer switches havent made it to Henley yet.
