The Tudor Pass

Everything was truly perfect, the team behind all of this is extraordinary. The service is unreal and the food is amazing. One thing though, most cutleries smell like fish, which ruins the taste of other non-fish dishes. Either use different cutleries or wash them separately/repeatedly. It totally ruined my desert which is sad. Hence my four star.

Came here last week with my wife for my birthday. We live locally & had actually been to Alex's previous chef's table at Crockers in Henley (which we thoroughly enjoyed) so were excited to see what he had done here at The Tudor Pass. We were not disappointed. Firstly the location is stunning - Great Fosters is beautiful, and the room that The Tudor Pass is set is in wonderful. Only small (7 or so tables) but with a lovely ambience in a grand looking space. The staff were fantastic - couldn't fault at all, they really were brilliant & so friendly. So the tasting menu is a 'surprise' in the sense you don't see the menu until the end of your meal. I won't give anything away or post photos to spoil, but every single course was amazing - a real top tier tasting menu. The chefs take turns in coming out & explaining each course to you which is a nice touch. 10/10 cannot recommend enough for anybody who enjoys their food. Not too badly priced either for this caliber of tasting menu.

I have had the privilege of dining in a few Michelin* restaurants and The Tudor Pass exceeded my expectations. 2 of our party had specific dietry requirement - we received a phone call from the restaurant to discuss, and their menu was amended accordingly with special treats/courses being served. The service was warm and attentive, and as a special touch the chefs actually presented the food they had prepared, giving an explanation of each dish. The quality was superb, the presentaion amazing. We were left quite wowed about our experience. It is an expensive restaurant but when you have a special experience like this, it was worth it.

Theatrical fine dining at its best… wow! We had the most fantastic lunch here yesterday for mum and dads special birthdays. From beginning to end we were made to feel special and well looked after. We were running late because the M25 was being the M25. No problem. We let them know and they were waiting for us when we arrived. We were seated in the most beautiful small dining room with just 7 tables. Intimate but luxurious and very comfortable. We went for the 4 course tasting menu which was actually 12 courses 😂 😋. The surprise snacks were an absolute delight alongside a glass of English sparkling wine. The sharing bread was yummy with 2 spreads - beef dripping and a butter with delicious drizzle. Then 4 incredible courses. We had a Sancerre with the fish course recommended by Chris, our excellent host and then Australian Shiraz with the beef, also recommended. Both were perfectly paired. Each course was served by a different chef and each was presented beautifully with an explanation and often an accompanying story card. The meal finished with surprise petit fours and I opted for a cup of Earl grey. The rest of the family had a coffee. We then went for a wander around the magnificent grounds in the sunshine. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect afternoon. The whole experience was exquisite and completely beyond expectation. Suffice to say, mum and dad loved their birthday treat. Thank you to the amazing team at the Tudor Pass. We hope to see you again soon….

My husband and I have just had the pleasure of Tudor Pass’s 7 course tasting menu for our wedding anniversary meal. Wow is literally an understatement - without a doubt the best food we have had in years. Not being flash, but we are very fortunate to have eaten in some of the finest restaurants in the UK and far beyond. This place really blew us away with exceptional food from Alex and first class service from Danni. What an absolute treat. Watch this space as we are sure they are food and service legends in the making. If you are looking for fantastic food and amazing service please book here you will not be disappointed I promise.
