Forburys Restaurant

With floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Forbury Square and a terrace with heated umbrellas and delightful views over Forbury Gardens, this elegant, contemporary building was designed by the architect who created Canary Wharf. With a distinctly French feel, the sand-and-cream colour scheme is offset by chocolate brown leather seats, oak floors and crisp linen, and there's a private dining room and a contemporary-style wine bar in stainless steel and leather. Cooking is modern British and French and, in addition to the seasonal carte, a good-value market menu is available at lunch and dinner, complemented by a great wine list, and charming and knowledgeable service. With daily specials such as day-boat turbot or côte de boeuf with goose fat chips and béarnaise sauce, expect unfussy main course Cornish sole meunière or fillet of Hambleden venison with chocolate sauce and red cabbage.
