Beetle Wedge Boathouse - Wallingford

We stayed overnight and took dinner and breakfast which were very good. However, caution is required when booking accommodation which, in our case was less good. Our ‘room’ comprised a converted single garage attached to an adjacent and occupied single house, complete with old abandoned motorbikes in the small garden. A dead giveaway was that the garage still had what appeared to be a white up-and-over door. However, the main inconvenience (pun not intended) was the lack of any door between the bedroom and bathroom, removing any semblance of privacy, such that, even after 25 years of marriage my wife and I felt the need to exit to the garden while the other used the lavatory. Not good!

My husband and I enjoyed a delicious dinner at The Beetle Wedge on a Saturday evening in February. The food and cocktails were excellent, and the staff was friendly and attentive.

Terrific location with great views of the Thames. Wide range of choices on the menu. The scallops, terrine and spiced venison pie were all delicious, beautifully presented and well seasoned. Just enough room to share a pudding. Staff are engaging and eager to please. Fortunate to see a family of otters on the opposite riverbank, a real bonus. No hesitation in returning, never had a bad meal here.

We took our daughter and family out for her birthday. We ordered from the set menu for January, two course's for £22. My husband and I were extremely lucky with our meals, outstanding food,but 3 of our party weren't so lucky. Overall I would recommend people to give it a visit.

I went to this restaurant for lunch today and it was fantastic! The restaurant is excellent and the menu is amazing. A special thanks to our waitress Lily who was very attentive and accommodating, even with my seed intolerance. She helped me choose a meal without any trouble at all. I will definitely be coming back again.
