Quick info
About Mount Pleasant View
Mount Pleasant View is a restaurant and bar in Henlow, set on an old golf course on Mount Pleasant View. Large glass windows look out on the green, so almost every table has a view of it. The kitchen serves breakfast and brunch dishes, including a full breakfast, a vegetarian breakfast and French toast. Lunch brings a goats cheese quiche and a roast peach salad. A private dining room gives groups a space of their own, and dogs are welcome. Tables can be booked online, and reserved signs are placed on them.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the view, from huge glass windows and outside seating, with several calling it beautiful in the sunshine. Close behind is breakfast and brunch, where diners name the full breakfast, French toast, a sausage bun, egg hush and the vegetarian breakfast, along with a goats cheese quiche and roast peach salad at lunch. Several call the food delicious and hot, and one finds it reasonably priced. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly and accommodating, and one family who held a wake there say the team looked after everyone. Dogs being allowed pleases one walker, and one reviewer notes the decaf coffee. The main complaint comes from a regular who booked a table and was given one beside the toilet door marked reserved. The restaurant was fairly empty, yet a request to move to any other table was refused, and the other reserved tables stayed unoccupied for over an hour. That reviewer found the waitresses unaccommodating and rude and will not return. Several other visitors say they plan to come back soon.

“Was here unfortunately for a wake after my Brother in laws funeral. Very lovely place and great staff who really looked after all of us. Set which I believe on an old golf course with beautiful walks. Now I guess its just used as a restaurant and bar. Well worth a visit if you are passing.”

“I booked a table, turned up early, to be told my table was just being finished. I asked which was my table, the one by the door to the toilets, which was already completely set and had a reserved sign. The restaurant was relatively empty. I asked if we could sit at a different table, because I didn't like where I was allocated, to be told all other tables were reserved. Like mine! I explained that the reserved sign clearly means the table is booked. There was a window table and several others within the seating area with reserved on them. I explained that any other table would be fine, just not near the busy entrance to the toilets. I was told I could not move somewhere else and that the window table had been requested. This was the first I'd heard of "requesting a specific table" when making a booking. I said this option is not available when booking online, to be told, by a rather red faced young waitress, that I had to ring up to ask for a window seat. I wasn't asking for the window table, just any table other than mine. The waitress said no. To add insult to injury, the other "allocated" tables were not occupied for over an hour after we arrived. I feel, that after many visits and meals to this restaurant, including twice this month, the waitresses were very unaccommodating and even quite rude. With that in mind, I will not be recommending your facilities any more, nor visiting.”

“Lovely venue with huge glass windows and a fantastic view, from almost all tables. Seating outside, the ambiance is lovely with everything new, very comfy seats, and a contemporary feel. food covers all bases, from a light lunch, to a more formal meal, very reasonably priced. Service was very polite and efficient. Recommend the goats cheese quiche and the roast peach salad.”
