The Royal Windsor

You'll find yourself in that particular kind of Windsor pub that doesn't try too hard but somehow gets everything right. The Royal Windsor sits on Datchet Road with the sort of unpretentious charm that comes from actually being used by locals rather than performing for them. It's the place where regulars know the bar staff's names and you won't feel awkward nursing a pint alone, whether you're popping in after work or settling in for the evening. The kind of spot where conversation happens naturally and the real business of a proper pub—good beer, decent company, no fuss—takes precedence over Instagram moments.
