The Baskerville Arms Pub

Visited today for the Sunday dinner. The staff were most helpful over my gluten intolerance. The chef made gluten free gravy especially for me also ensuring I had gluten free bread with my soup. The food was excellent and if you are in the area I would recommend a visit.

The Baskerville Arms in Shiplake has recently been revitalized with comprehensive updates to its bar, kitchen, accommodations, parking area, and gardens. On a subsequent visit, the results were impressive. Thanks to the vision of its current owner and the collaboration with Jeremy, a previous Henley local publican, the venue has been reinvigorated. Its interior decorations are elegantly accomplished, offering high-quality aesthetics that create a warm and welcoming environment when entering or moving towards the garden. The exterior now boasts charming seating areas with provisions for children's activities, and a dog-friendly policy. The menu presents an array of excellent options, particularly for those with gluten allergies or dietary restrictions. Our chosen dishes for the day, cajun chicken complete with relish and fries, alongside classic Fish 'n' chips accompanied by garden peas and fries, did not fail to satisfy. The servings were so generous that we opted out of dessert—perhaps on a future occasion. As personal patrons, we rank this pub as our preferred destination for dining out due to its diverse menu, congenial staff, and delightful ambient experience. It comes highly recommended.
