What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
The Astor Grill offers a charming dining experience within Cliveden's historic stables, praised for its excellent service and special occasion ambiance. While many rave about the steaks and dog-friendly nature, some find the food good but not exceptional for the high prices. It's considered a relaxed option within the estate, though not always meeting fine-dining expectations.
"We were celebrating my husband's 60th birthday and had the best time! The Astor Grill wasn't what I was expecting but actually worked out much better than I expected. It felt like a much more cosy and intimate space. The staff were impeccable and truly made our experience even better. They all took exceptionally good care of us and definitely went over and above to make us feel special. It didn't hurt that the food was lovely and the menu was diverse enough to suit everybody.
I would happily recommend this establishment to anyone looking for a slightly less formal setting than the main house to enjoy a wonderful meal. The Astor Grill will definitely be a place we will return too. Thank you.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all."

"The menu is imaginative and the food is good but not exceptional. The stables ambience is nice & the service was appropriate to Cliveden. But we didn’t feel that any of this justifies the very high prices. Whilst each dish on it’s own is not excessively priced, when you add in £7 for a bottle of sparkling water, £7 for a coffee, extra £ for sides, £13-£20 for a 175ml of admittedly nice wine it all adds up considerably"

"My wife and I have been trying out local restaurants for several years now. This weekend we finally made our way to The Astor Grill at Cliveden House.
We've had a few of those small starters, my wife had the beef rib and I had the sirloin on the bone
We were bitterly disappointed. The food is not worth the high price tag. The steak was overcooked, tough, and some of the sides were a bit bland.
There are several Michelin Star places in the area for a much more better value.
Unfortunately, we won't be coming back.
However, despite the food, the staff were lovely."

Best Taplow Restaurants - Reviews & Restaurant Guide
A “lovely location – the converted stables on the Cliveden estate”, the Astor family’s Italianate country mansion where Christine Keeler famously frolicked in the pool, to the delight of War Minister John Profumo, is sadly let down by its number two restaurant, in the former stable block – “the main dining room was closed during the week so we ate in the Astor Grill, but the disappointing menu and even more disappointing food led me to wish I had waited a few years until my wife’s birthday fell on a weekend. Suggest you do the same. My only excuse is that you don’t turn 80 every day!
Royal Berkshire | The Good Food Guide
The brasserie-grill offspring of André Garrett at Cliveden is sited in the old stables with plenty of original features. The atmosphere at The Astor Grill is relaxed enough to cater for those just wanting a drink and half a lobster and chips – recommended if the weather is fine and there’s the chance to sit in the pretty courtyard. The menu is peppered with ideas to please all palates, from a buttermilk chicken sandwich to chateaubriand.
