Large landmark pub on busy road junction on A30, next to Virginia Water, in Chef & Brewer chain. Originally a posh hotel, it still has accommodation but the different ground floor rooms are now all converted into the pub/dining areas which gives a rather rambling feel and lots of different areas, including garden. As might be expected, popular with family diners but also has a good range of beers, with local guests alongside the usual suspects, and seemed in good condition (Cask Marque listing). Not one to spend the evening at, but a useful watering hole or meeting point.

Three ales - Hobgoblin, Spitfire, Doom Bar. Extremely busy and yet again I left without a drink. Looking elsewhere it seems that variations of the phrase ‘chronic lack of staff’ has been used a few times. Two visits, no beer. Unprecedented!
February 2008
Popped in for my first visit on Sunday afternoon as Missus Quinno was driving her new motor back to Staines. A very large Chef & Brewer outlet housed in an impressively imposing building that backs onto Windsor Great Park. Pleased to see three handpulls (Bombardier, TEA and Pride) in nice olde worlde surroundings (clearly not that old) but not impressed by the wait at the bar, as the staff were more interested with the food ordering classes than pulling a pint for the plebs. So after five minutes I left without sampling - very poor performance. Might serve a nice pint...if you have more time to kill than Terry Waite chained to a radiator.
