GOGOS Waterfront Restaurant

Head down to Racecourse Marina and you'll find yourself at one of Windsor's best spots for actually being by the water. GOGOS does that rare thing of nailing the setting without making you feel like you're paying for the postcode alone. The place has a relaxed waterfront energy—you can watch the river do its thing while you're eating, which beats staring at another high street chain. It's the sort of place locals bring guests to show off a bit, and fair enough: decent cocktails, proper portions, and staff who actually seem to care about whether you're enjoying yourself. Works equally well for a casual dinner with mates or if you're trying to impress someone.
