  “Had a lovely walk around the village and a stop off here for a Tea and some cake. Yummy! Really nice time spent to round off the trip.”

  “Our tea and cake was lovely. Less welcome was the tone we received from the person who served us, maybe the manager. Perhaps something about our group offended her, or it was the end of a tough day. But no reason to be uncivil.”

  “Me and my wife checked before leaving that the cafe was open until 5pm, we rode our motorbikes for an hour to get there at 2:59 - as I waited in the queue the serving lady took the sandwich menu in -I asked if we could “sneak in 2 sandwiches” as I was next in the q at the time she removed the sign, to which she simply said “No, the kitchen shuts at 3pm”. We won’t be coming back.”

  “We often come for the delicious breakfast, but today we were cycling by and paused for a take away lunch to sit by the river with. We were served with a smile, the food was fantastic and the coffee was great too. Never had a bad experience here in over 10 years of visiting.”

  “£4.70 for that? Absolutely not. I honestly don’t know how you get a chai latte this wrong. I paid £4.70 for what was essentially a cup of lukewarm water with a tiny splash of milk. It was barely milky, wasn’t properly stirred, and there was a layer of undissolved chai powder/grit floating all over the top and settled around the bottom. The photos really do tell the story, it tasted as unappetising as it looked. For £4.70, I expected a proper, hot, milky chai latte. Instead, it was like drinking warm, weak milky water with bits in it. Absolutely dreadful and massively overpriced. I’m normally reluctant to leave negative reviews, but this was genuinely one of the worst hot drinks I’ve ever been served. Had I not been on my way to an appointment in London, I would have taken it back and requested a refund. Additionally there were flies on the cakes as they did not have fly nets over them. I would highly recommend the owner invests in these for hygiene reasons.”

  “We had a wonderful Sunday breakfast at Pierreponts in Goring. The smoked salmon and scrambled eggs were excellent — the eggs beautifully light and fluffy. The English breakfast was cooked to perfection, with particularly delicious fried bread. Best I have ever had. But the standout had to be the French toast with vanilla, caramelised bananas and bacon — an absolutely heavenly combination of sweet and savoury. We booked ahead so didn’t have to wait for a table. The service was excellent, particularly given how busy they were with take out customers as well as a full terrace. A lovely spot for a relaxed Sunday breakfast and definitely somewhere we’ll return to.”

  “What a lovely find! After a walk along the Thames birding, this was a welcome treat before driving 2 hours home. The service was quick, polite and just what was needed. We ordered 4 sandwiches and some tea. The sandwiches were fresh, filling and good value for money, the crisps on the side were a perfect accompaniment. The tea was served in a pot and with loose leaf tea. Water was already on the table for use to rehydrate whilst looking at the menus. If the sandwiches and baguettes weren't so filling, we would definitely have been swayed to try one of the delicious looking home made cakes. We chose to sit inside, but the outside seating was constantly kept full due to the nice weather and gorgeous fare on offer. Highly recommend”

  “Today I visited Pierreponts Café, and despite how busy it was, I was pleasantly surprised that I didn’t have to wait long before being offered a table. The staff were professional, friendly, and very attentive throughout my visit, which added a lot to the overall experience. The café itself is quite small, but it has a warm, charming atmosphere that makes it feel welcoming rather than crowded. I chose my meal based on the photos I had seen on Google, and it turned out to be an excellent decision. The tart with salad was fresh, balanced, and full of flavour. Overall, a great spot worth visiting again.”

  “Really lovely visit. We used to be semi regulars but haven’t been for years. We were pleasantly surprised as we think it is even better. The atmosphere was relaxed, the coffee good and the food delicious. The shakshuka had the richest thick tomato sauce with just the right spice. We won’t leave it so long next time! Definitely worth booking as it gets busy. Plenty of seating outside if it’s a sunny day though.”

  “Great little spot for tasty, wholesome food in the beautiful Goring. Amazing juices, soups and sandwiches. The shakshuka was one of the best I’ve had! Friendly service and care taken to note your dietary requirements. I’m dairy & gluten free and have no trouble finding something delicious to eat every visit.”
