Arguably the best place to have lunch in Windsor…

Where shall we have lunch in Windsor?

Everyone who comes to town for the day asks the question ‘where shall we have lunch in Windsor’?

“The History of every major Galactic Civilization tends to pass through three distinct and recognizable phases, those of Survival, Inquiry and Sophistication, otherwise known as the How, Why, and Where phases. For instance, the first phase is characterized by the question ‘How can we eat?’, the second by the question ‘Why do we eat?’, and the third by the question ‘Where shall we have lunch?”

The Restaurant at the End of the Universe (Douglas Adams)

Phase three sorted – have lunch in Windsor at The Boatman riverside gastropub and restaurant.

  • Roast Rump of Beef
  • Roast Leg of Pork
