Bistro Du Vin

Bistro du Vin is at the heart of our hotel in Henley-on-Thames. Experience an elegant and informal setting for lunch and dinner - where guests can meet, celebrate or simply pass the time - at the classic, French-styled Bistro du Vin.

Menus

At our Bistro du Vin Henley-on-Thames it's simple, really. Inspired by French home-style cooking with robust earthy dishes, and slow-cooked foods, Bistro du Vin's Gallic influenced menu has an undeniably British flavour.

It's about serving up dishes that rely heavily on fresh and seasonal produce. It's about enjoying moderately priced à la carte dining in a down-to-earth, warm and relaxing setting. All served by attentive and exceptionally knowledgeable waiting staff, happy to explain the dishes, the ingredients, and how our talented Chefs put them together. Always on hand, your Sommelier is also ready to advise, guide, match or recommend the perfect wine.

As for the décor - think natural daylight, reclaimed dark-stained floorboards, restored fireplaces, framed pictures and paintings, soft lighting and comfortable chairs. This is Bistro du Vin. Bistro dining at its heart warming, mouth watering best.

OUR A LA CARTE
Sample our elegant new menu with all the delicious fresh tastes of the new season’s produce at Hotel du Vin. Enjoy scallops ceviche or maybe a Limousin beef carpaccio to welcome the new season. Get excited about our fantastic new main courses with sole Meunière or braised Herdwick lamb breast, served with peas, carrots and mint chutney, all paired with a bottle of wine from our extensive selection with the help of one of our sommeliers. Finish your meal with our new, lighter dessert menu with delicious sweets such as sea salt caramel fondant or a tropical fruit pavlova.

IT TAKES TWO - SEAFOOD PLATTERS
Using an eclectic combination of flavours to enhance the fresh taste of these beautifully presented seafood platters for two, the acidity of the shallot vinegar along with buttery spicy and sweet flavours from the Bloody Mary, garlic butter and homemade mayonnaise work perfectly with the simple, fresh and carefully sourced ingredients.

BREAKFAST
Whether you're staying with us, meeting friends or having an early meeting, you can join us for a divine Hotel du Vin Breakfast. The country table offers freshly squeezed juices, cereals, baked pastries, fruit, natural yoghurts and crunchy granola. The cooked breakfast offers all the delights from the country table as well as a choice of everything from traditional breakfast favourites, boiled eggs and soldiers, classic crêpes and eggs Benedict.

AFTERNOON TEA
From £8.50, served daily from 12pm to 6pm
Afternoon tea is the perfect combination of sweet and savoury, although a little naughty, it’s worth every bite. Washed down with a cup of tea from the outstandingly good tea infusions created for us by Twinings who boast a rich history producing classic tea blends and fruity infusions. But it would be remiss not to try our suggested aperitifs such as a classic Champagne or one of the inspired gins, each with its very own perfect accompaniments.
