The Queens Head, Henley-On-Thames

Visited this pub for the first time and have to admit being pretty impressed. The decor is good, the layout is interesting with comfy chairs but enough space for a crowd to form as well and the owner was keen to have a chat. You are made to feel at home.

What was really fantastic was the food. There was a small hot food menu but the dish I had was an freshly made by my very enthusiatic host and of excellent quality. Cassoulet is not what I expect to see as pub grub and it was a delight to find that it really was authentic recipe rather than simply an approximation. This pub gets my vote. Go ask what is on and be prepared to enjoy yourself.
