We had a couple of food allergies in our group and Matt went above and beyond to accommodate us. The food was delicious as always. We ordered the Gammon Steak and the Greek Salad, which were delicious. Afterwards we took a stroll around the grounds which are extensive. The site is stunning. Or our way back we had worked up our appetite again so we had a cream tree before leaving. The scones were huge and perfectly made.

Great atmosphere in both the bar and restaurant sections. Will definitely return. Parking is available behind the building, access off the high street.

Its now called the Sanctum on the green and is situated like the name suggests on a village green. It is esentially a pub with rooms and lo has an open air swimming pool and spa. It was about 9pm when i arrived so i just wanted to get some food and relax, i was swiftly checked in and shown to my room. When I went back to the bar to order my meal the chap that checked me in remembered by first name which i thought was a nice touch. I ordered the venison for main, green beans and a glass of wine. Restaurant is called Lukes and served lovely food (see pictures). My only slight complaint was that the fan in my bathroom was sticking so it was pretty noisy but I mentioned it to the lady on checking out and im sure they will have got it fixed. They also had orla kiely and REN products in the bathroom so a winner on that front.

There is a mix of people who pop in for a pint and those who stay for several hours drinking wine and enjoying the good food. Whilst there are a lot of restaurants in Maidenhead, it is my opinion that this pub serves the best food. The food is simple and tasty. The chips are excellent - cooked perfectly with just the right amount of seasoning (not salt but seasoning). The staff are very friendly, prompt, and helpful. There is a cozy fireplace in the back of the pub surrounded by two large couches and several short stools (coffee table height). I only wish I had discovered this pub sooner!

Finally for dessert we split an incredible coconut and pineapple rum infused cream brûlée. Pleasant and helpful staff, with a warm and modern design.

I have enjoyed a fantastic time here, whether with romantic interests (candles, plush, great service), mates (relaxing chairs, great wine list, range of cigars) or by myself (pretty waitresses). I'd like to tell you about the menu, but I always had the fillet steak, and for good reason. The grounds are lovely, and the village of Taplow is a lovely place. I would happily bring up a family in this part of the country - and would happily be a regular here. I must admit evenings tended to be pricey, but I think that was more because I was tempted by the wines, port and brandy than any excessive charges!
