The Lord Nelson, Burnham Market
what have they done to this pub? Such a shame. I suggested it 3 years ago and the change was unnecessary and silly.

I wrote the first comment back in april 2004, and went back at the weekend with slight trepidation after reading recent reviews on here, and having had friends been since the 'upgrade'.
It's gone down hill amazingly in the last year or so. It used to be up there with the Bell at Aldworth - but now it's appalling - unless you're eating the [ropey] food I wouldn't bother turning up.
What a shame. If it ever goes back to the original I will be back - otherwise there are more pubs with better atmosphere and service to try.

The Greyhound, Whitchurch on Thames
Lovely pub - decent beer and pleasant staff in a very picturesque village on the Thames. Popped in on a Monday night and it seemed to be a hive of village life. Extensive menu with over forty dishes, ranging from good sandwiches to steaks and the renowned "Prawn Hoagie". Recommended.

popped in for a couple on saturday night. Lovely pub still - very good pint of hooray henley, and a lovely crowd. Still the best pub in the village.

It's being done up at the moment and is apparently going to be a boutique hotel. Hopefully opening before christmas. We'll have to see what it's like but it should be good.

Very pleasant pub. Great location opposite the pond and cricket pitch. Very good food (superb burger - absolutely superb), and decent beer. Lovely bar staff, and excellant walks nearby. Highly recommended all round.

how old is that picture? the pub is now yellow, covered with Ivy and doesn't have the picture on the wall.
although it is nice to see it without millions of cars outside...
