Eighteen

You'll find Eighteen tucked into the Mercure on High Street, right in the thick of Windsor's action but somehow feeling removed from the tourist chaos outside. It's the kind of place that takes itself seriously without being precious about it—smart service, considered cooking, the sort of restaurant where they actually know what they're doing. The setting feels contemporary without trying too hard, all clean lines and unfussy elegance. This is where locals come when they want something decent without having to venture into town.
