The Little Angel, Henley-on-Thames

Overview

This roomy food-led pub can seat up to 120 people and is just 100 yards from the River Thames at Henley Bridge and the site of the famous Henley Royal Regatta course. Cosy up beside the open fire in the attractively contemporary bar in the winter or while away a sunny summer afternoon in the courtyard. The flexible menu means you can choose a lunchtime sandwich from the specials board, share a Little Angel Plate with homemade Scotch egg and chicken liver and foie gras parfait or settle in for three courses that might include pan-fried wood pigeon breast with a pancetta, sautéed potato and hazelnut salad or honey-glazed ham hock on sweet potato purée with a cider sauce. Book in advance for the Two Ton Table where you can carve a Sunday roast joint for your guests.
