Loch Fyne (Beaconsfield)

Such a beautiful restaurant, however such a pity about the food, service and general lack of management. When we arrived for dinner there was some young chap practically laying on the front sofa with his laptop, surrounded by staff members, not a great impression. The service started off well, however once we had our starters the waiter forgot about us. My main meal was appalling - we settled for the. 2 course £10 menu, I chose the Bradan rost (which was pretty uninventive) and for main had the clam and mussel chowder, which was gloopy and had far too much pepper in it. Our server checked the meal, and when I explained that it was ok not great he said ok and walked away! We had to ask 3 times for the bill. Such a shame and I have to say very disappointing.. Would not recommend.

We are regulars at this restaurant and have never been disappointed. The service has always been good and attentive and most of the crew will engage in banter and chat but will leave you alone if you require. The food is of a consistently good standard. The mussels are excellent as is the lobster. Try the oysters as well! We choose to eat here on special occasions and know it’s not going to be a cheap night out: hence it being for occasions such as birthdays and our anniversary. They often have live music which creates a good ambience.
