We popped in here for a coffee and an early grey tea after a long walk!
Lovely little place, beautifully decorated and maintained.
The service was excellent too. Very friendly, welcoming and warm.
We had the chocolate and salted caramel tart, it was really lovely!
Service was fast. All in all a great place to visit.
A great lunch today I had the Pesto Linguine with chicken and it was superb
A good vibe to the premises with excellent service attentive and pleasant
Would like to return!
Trying to live up to the hype of Côte and existing great restaurants, AH is still going through teething issues, e.g new staff and the right menu.
However, the restaurant has all the right foundations to be successful if given a chance. On a Friday evening the staff tried to be attentive and food was palatable and the ambience was pleasant! Hopefully we can support the local business on its new found journey.
I asked Amersham House to host my father’s wake, attracted by the bright, fresh, informal interior and the friendly, likeable attitude of the staff I met on a speculative visit. It took a bit of thinking about because this was obviously an out-of-the-ordinary request. In the end we agreed a fixed per-head price, and Lina closed to other customers for the day to be able to deliver best-quality service to our group.
We were welcomed with coffee and pastries ahead of the funeral so that guests travelling a distance could feel relaxed and refreshed. After the funeral we had a drinks reception with nibbles, using the lovely side space to circulate. We had a table for our photo albums and flowers. Then we had a sit-down dinner: we had chosen a straightforward main meal with choice of desserts so that the kitchen could produce that many meals in a sensible timeframe. Lina brought in extra staff for us and Tom, Sidney, Eleanor and Courtney looked after us very well, checking in frequently to see if anyone wanted more drinks or anything. The food was delicious and presented swiftly, so well done to the whole kitchen and serving team (I didn’t remember everyone’s name). Our guests were able to circulate and chat as the table seating arrangements are so flexible. Everything was done to a beautiful standard with no fuss and in a lovely relaxed atmosphere. It was exactly as my generous, fun-loving dad would have wanted. Thankyou Amersham House.
Excellent service, decor and seating. I had the calamari starter, which was very tasty and mostly perfectly cooked although a couple were chewy. One of our party party had the tomato soup which she was very impressed with. My main was a little disappointing, but this wasn't helped by the fact that I couldn't have the red pepper sauce as they upset my stomach. However, it was also let down by the potatoes being very under done. The Merlot was nice if rather pricy.
Although it was quiet on a Wednesday lunchtime we had an excellent lunch. Service was good and helpful, and the mussels I had were wonderful. Some of the best I’ve eaten. Really fresh and plump with a gorgeous sauce. Excellent chips too. It would be nice if they could soften and enliven the rather dark and austere back area a little. That bit needs a ‘design master’! But can’t fault the food or service. Will definitely go again and I hope they do well.
We visited for the first time today for lunch. We went for the set menu with just two choices per course from the à la carte menu but nonetheless of great quality and value. Service friendly and atmosphere pleasant, including great care taken over gluten free food for one of us. A look at the main menu and the wine list suggest another visit (fully intended) will be very enjoyable.
Stopped at lunchtime to ask about the Moules and Sidney was so friendly we came back that evening for dinner.
Tom greeted us, and mentioned my comments in the online booking (nice to see people giving real personal greeting) and we chose a booth to eat in, really nice private space in a really nicely finished brasserie.
Menu was great, we had steak tartare, prawns, moules and steak.
Food was mostly perfect and service was excellent.
I’ve seen some bad reviews but this wasn’t our experience at all and service from everyone was bang on and we’ll be back!
The food was very good. I had pasta with grilled chicken, my son had the Cesar salad. It was both very good, and a reasonable price too.
The service was superb- they waited on us hand and foot, and they were very polite and nice to talk to.
The restaurant is very very cozy, both inside and outside. I give it my best recommandations!
We had a lovely late breakfast. Great service - drinks arrived promptly, breakfast was delivered soon after.
I had the "French breakfast" and the boudoin noir was excellent. All perfectly cooked and arrived nice and hot at the table.
Had a lovely experience - largely down to the majestic Ukrainian waiter who served us, unparalleled alphadom led to impeccable service. Evening was a cracker! Chicken liver pâté however was not up to scratch with a greater concentration of butter than was desired.

The manager really went over and above to accommodate us on Mothers day as our booking somehow didn't register on the system. We really enjoyed our family lunch there today.
