Restaurants in Aylesbury

German Doner Kebab

GDK Aylesbury never disappoints. Amazing food, generous portions, and excellent customer service every time I visit. The restaurant is always clean and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. Highly recommend the mixed doner and signature sauces — absolutely delicious!

The Bugle Horn

Came for a birthday lunch and was lovely. Brought out a surprise birthday brownie with a candle (after I may of said it was for a birthday) really made the experience nice. A great contribution to our day ?

The Chequers Inn

After having attended a few Sunday roasts, we decided to book for our small intimate wedding at The Chequers Inn. Ranka, Jamie and the team were fantastic from start to finish! Cannot recommend a visit (or two/three/four...) highly enough. Thank you for making our special day so memorable.

The Codfather

I usually go on Gluten free day, the chap in charge is excellent really takes pride never had better gluten free batter!! Just wish it wasn’t gluten free just once a week

Aylesbury Harvester

We came into Harvester after a long day in the cold weather and we were not disappointed. We were sat down swiftly and met by the lovely server (I think their name was Seb). They got us our drinks quickly and pointed out some great options on the menu!
I had a cracking steak meal and Seb was able to accommodate my requests (I’m not a lover of peas and Seb was able to swap them out for another veg option).
Seb was very attentive and made sure that we had everything we needed and our food was great!!

A lovely team of individuals, thank all and big shout out to Seb!

The Coffee Tree

Like a boomerang, I simply keep returning.
The new owners are absolutely lovely, friendly, personable, professional, and makes it a love place to be.

The food, cooked fresh to order, never disappoints, the same returning of customers gives a lovely homely feel, almost though visiting a favourite aunt.

Highly recommend for a quiet escape from that high street chain and feel

Best of luck with new business

Thailicious

Ate dinner here today (31/03/26).
The atmosphere was quiet and relaxed, the food was fast and delicious, and the server Richard was excellent, helpful and friendly. Would recommend, heartily!

Bell Aston Clinton

Visited a few times over the last 2 months while in the area and stayed overnight on one occasion. This is a lovely boutique pub and restaurant with ample car park and nice garden. The atmosphere is comfortable with rustic plush decor with lots of character. Food has always been great, good portions and choice. Friendly staff and relaxed ambience.

Herali

We had visited once before following a recommendation and the food was great, so we came back! Once again the food was amazing and the new restaurant looks great! The staff were smiley and friendly. Would highly recommend a try if you haven’t already x

The Feathers Aylesbury

Kid friendly until about 8 pm. Nice food. Kids corner. Outside seats. Plays sports. Lots of games like darts and pool.

Kid-friendliness: Kids corner. No kids after I think 8 pm.

Mela

The best Madras sauce ever tasted. So lucky to have this amazing restaurant in our village. Osman was our awesome waiter. Service is amazing and courteous. Love those place on our doorstep - thank you

I love the atmosphere and the space out front with tables and benches Great place to meet up with friends, also have the garden out back, just a really nice pub.

Iannellis

We visited this place for lunch.
We ordered spaghetti carbonara, chips, and coffee.
They were all nice.

The service was good and fast.
The staffs were helpful.
They also sell ice creams, cakes and some pastries.
We will visit again

The Angel Restaurant

Lovely little place. We were staying in Long Crendon and booked here for dinner. Staff were very friendly and nothing seemed like too much trouble for them. When we arrived we were offered drinks by the fire on very comfy sofas. The food cooked by Trevor in the back was very very good. They do the old basics very well, modern British food, and you could taste the fact everything that touched your mouth was local.I went for Black Pudding starter followed by the Lamb with Duaphinoise (both in pictures). Wife had lightly curried Hake. Bill was exceptional value too. Come here. Quickly.

Sushi Corner aylesbury

Lovely food, tasty and fresh. Restaurant had a simple, homely, authentic feel. We ordered a range of dishes including ramen, buns, tempura and sushi - all dishes were delicious.

Buckinghamshire Yeoman

Came to visit down from Hertfordshire to visit family who do come to this pub quite a lot. Jordan who served us couldn’t not have done anymore for us. She was lovely, polite, we also had a little bit of a difficult order but nothing was too much trouble for Jordan! Thank you so much! Had a lovely experience no complaints and the food was lovely. Will deffo return in the future! Thank you again Jordan! ☺️

Lounge India Bierton

Amazing experience! The staff were so friendly, caring, and genuinely entertaining it made the whole visit really enjoyable. The food came out super fast and tasted great. Definitely recommend!

Honey Bee

Extremely friendly and efficient staff, food quality and value is good. Just turned up one Sunday with my 98 yr old aunt, and they really pulled out all stops to fit us in and make our experience a great one. Have no hesitation in recommending.

The Five Bells

2 night stay to visit family.
Staff so friendly & helpful.
Room 7 very comfy, large & spacious.
Bathroom facilities as you would expect, powerful shower.
All you would need including iron & ironing board.
Didn’t have breakfast either day.
Booked a table for 7 for Sunday lunch, service very good.
Some aspects of meals chosen were good, others not so much.
Would we return: YES

The Churchill Arms

Lunch today on Mother's Day - standard lunch menu, no increase in price. Excellent food, generous portions, attentive and speedy service. Caterered for three generations!

Cotton Wheel

had a great time on new years all the staff are and was amazing. good happy evening with a great atmosphere. the landlady was fantastic. best landlady they've had there in a long time

Craftyard Wendover

We visited Wendover on Sunday looking for some lunch, and happened to come across Craftyard. Wow, we're so glad we did. We both ordered a roast and they were fabulous. Hot, tasty and generous. Every mouthful was a treat, especially the cauliflower cheese and the gravy. My belly pork was flavoursome and tender. My husband does not eat meat and ordered the vegetarian roast. He was not disappointed, which is saying something for quality veggie alternatives - he said it was yummy!

The Eight Bells

Had some time to kill before a wedding and popped into this pub for a few drinks- I was more than surprised by how affordable and welcoming the pub was- the beer garden (photo attached) was lovely and I imagine the atmosphere in the pub is great when full. The staff were incredibly kind, attentive and helpful. Overall I bought a small roast, 2 pints a half Coca Cola and some pork scratching and it only cost me around £20. If I’m ever in the area again I’ll definitely be returning

CANALETTO

Came here for lunch. Everything was fantastic. The service was excellent. The food was hot, fresh and flavorful. The butternut squash ravioli was very nice. My husband ordered a steak and it was absolutely perfect. The zucchini is also very nice. Don't skip out on dessert either. We will definitely be returning.

The King's Head, Aylesbury

One year later: I have to give it 5 stars. Perhaps was just a very unfortunate moment.

Ordered two burgers with sides, a Chiltern Black—nothing exotic, nothing complicated. Just a normal order at a place that’s been standing since 1455. You’d think a pub with nearly six centuries under its belt would have figured out how to handle basic table service by now. But no. We sit down, I glance at the table—only one set of cutlery. Odd. I go up to the bar to check what they’ve actually processed. And of course, only one burger. One. Despite ordering two. Despite it being plainly clear. Despite this not being some experimental gastropub with abstract rules. Just sheer, almost proud, incompetence.

Fine. I order the second burger. Annoying, but fine—mistakes happen. What matters is how a place handles them, right? So I ask, very simply, please bring both burgers out together. It’s a basic request. Fundamental, even. Because unlike the staff, my wife and I actually enjoy eating meals together, not in relay. That’s when it all goes to hell.
The lad behind the bar—blank-faced, monotone, the human embodiment of a dead battery—starts repeating “No, this is not possible.” Not once, not twice, but over and over, like a malfunctioning answering machine. I ask why. I ask if he can check with the kitchen. Nothing. Just the same useless, robotic phrase thrown back at me with all the charm of a wet rag. Absolutely no sense of initiative, no willingness to make even the slightest adjustment to accommodate a customer who’s already had their order botched. No “let me see what I can do,” no “I’ll ask the kitchen.” Just an unthinking wall of “not possible,” as if I’ve asked for a unicorn steak on short notice.

So now I’m left watching my wife eat her burger, while mine is presumably still being prepped by the crew of the Titanic. Then she gets to watch me eat mine—because eating together, apparently, is a logistical challenge too immense for this place to tackle. Romantic evening turned into a mealtime baton pass, all thanks to a team that treats hospitality like an afterthought.

Btw, asked to speak with the manager. Maybe, just maybe, there’s someone upstairs who’s clued in. Nope. Same slack posture, same scripted lines, same absolute vacuum of responsibility. The manager shrugged, offered some mumbled excuse, and vanished before anything could be properly addressed. Zero effort, zero urgency, zero care.

And it’s a crying shame, because the food—when it finally arrives—is genuinely excellent. Rich flavours, generous portions, clearly a kitchen with actual talent. And the ambiance? Exceptional. The building breathes history. Low timber beams, worn floors, the kind of timeless, lived-in character that no amount of trendy refurbishments can fake. Sitting there, you can almost feel the weight of centuries behind it. It should have been an unforgettable dining experience for all the right reasons.

Instead, it was unforgettable for all the wrong ones. Sterr clear, let them vanish...

Old Fisherman

We popped in during a visit from Wales, The lady that served us was so lovely, she helped me navigate the menu, I'm on the keto diet and I managed to order a lovely meal, the whole family enjoyed the food, the service was fantastic, we will definitely be returning! I didn't get the managers name, but she was amazing! Thankyou for taking the time with me. I ? recommend you xxx

The Plough

The Plough Sizzling Pub is definitely worth a visit, especially with their refreshed menu. I stopped by recently to check out the new dishes and was pleasantly surprised by the variety and quality.
To kick things off, I tried the Korean wings. They were a standout—perfectly seasoned with that signature sweet and spicy kick you want from a Korean-style sauce. They were cooked well and served as a great teaser for the main event.
Speaking of the main event, the fish and chips did not disappoint. The portion size was impressive; the fish was massive, flaky, and encased in a crisp, golden batter. It’s exactly the kind of generous, comforting pub classic you hope for but don’t always get.
Beyond the food, the logistics are a breeze. There is plenty of parking, so you won't be circling the block, and the outside seating area is a huge plus for those sunny afternoons. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or a full family dinner, the combination of great value, tasty new flavours, and a relaxed atmosphere makes The Plough a reliable local gem

Seven Stars

We had a family gathering at this beautiful community pub, run by the lovely Stephanie. We had closer options but glad we decided to travel a bit further (about a 13 minute drive from central Aylesbury). We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The food was of excellent quality, and it’s easy to see why The 7 Stars is such a highly successful, community-run gem loved by its patrons.

Stephanie and her team prepared our area beautifully. The staff were gracious, efficient, and professional, serving with genuine smiles throughout. Everyone was delighted by the food, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere made the event even more special. Even the regular patrons were friendly and offered their good wishes.

We couldn’t praise Stephanie and her team highly enough. Thank you all for making our family gathering so memorable. We’ll definitely be back and, in the meantime, we wish you continued success and joy in running this true treasure of Buckinghamshire.

The Bell, Chearsley

A real village pub with excellent food and a great atmosphere. Great staff also, friendly and helpful. Events take place like quiz night and bingo regularly which are always well attended and good fun. Booking for meals is advisable on these evenings.

The Dog House

We love it here, we come in couples, with dogs, without dogs, big family celebrations and we are always looked after and enjoy ourselves. Staff are lovely and food always on point!

The Swan

Group of 6 of us came via train for a pub lunch during a hiking day - great service from the offset, lovely food, the lady behind the bar made us feel extremely welcome. Highly recommend do a weekend lunch!

Meat'N'Eat

Went there hungry and tired after a 5 hour exam, and the experience was wonderful and so needed! I had the jerk chicken wrap which was so yummy and it came with fries to which I hadn’t expected - such great value for money, great food, a nice vibe and wonderful customer service! Wish I lived near here so I could come more often ?

Charter Table Table

Under new management. . All 5 of us really enjoyed the food. Nothing was left on the plates. So much better than before. Our waitress Silvia was lovely. Will definitely be back.

Noodle Nation Aylesbury

Amazing evening spent with special friends, food and service were second to none, Aurora looked after us all evening and made everything seamless.. would highly recommend ??

HI TIDE

I don’t often write reviews but I simply had to highlight the outstanding service and great food from Kyle and his team. We had an issue due to Just Eat a couple of weeks ago. Rather than blame the delivery driver as most other establishments would, Kyle personally delivered our food to us due to the very long wait. He was also amazing on my visit today. We have ordered from here for years and will continue to do so. Highly recommended.

Wimpy

6 of us had an early evening meal, we were seen to by a very helpful man who took and delivered our orders all without any delay or mistakes, really enjoyed our visit and will return soon.

Mediterranean Kebab House

I ordered the chicken goujons with chips and donner meat, topped with salad, chilli, and garlic sauce. The chicken goujons were crispy on the outside and tender inside, while the donner meat was flavourful and well-seasoned. The chips were hot and golden, a perfect base for the mix. The salad added some freshness, and the chilli and garlic sauces gave it just the right kick of spice and creaminess. Altogether, it was a generous portion and a really satisfying meal.

The Kashmir Gardens

Had a takeaway delivered last night, (hot and fresh) and it was absolutely delicious. We just had the leftovers for dinner tonight. Still very tasty. Always good food, excellent customer service and good value for money. I wouldnt go anywhere else now.

La Salute Aylesbury

This is a classic Italian restaurant with nice vegetarian options and relatively reasonable prices. Our waiter was charming, the food was copious if a little rich, and we enjoyed a nicely selected wine. If in town, I’ll definitely go back.

wagamama aylesbury

China Brasserie

I have been here twice and had excellent meals. It is good to be able to sit at a table and have authentic Chinese dishes. We had special crispy noodles and a duck spring rolls with Chinese tea.

Lakeside Chinese Takeaway

Absolutely a pleasure to eat here, excellent service, great quality food, huge portions ! What more can you ask for, oh not forgetting the smiles that greeted us in to the premises.
We will definitely be back for more and also use their delivery service too.
Thank you very much “ lakeside Chinese restaurant “ ?????????

King and Queen

Pete and Shelley keep doing something special in Wendover with this lively, friendly pub, that successfully combines homeliness with more than a hint of bohemian.

Aylesbury Tuck

I've been going to this place for years, and only recently came back since it had a new owner. The service is even better than it was, very friendly, and food is excellent.

Old Millwrights Arms

Popped in last night and met Pam the new landlady and her team - myself and the mrs were having a couple evening drinks - great service from Pam and the team. We will definitely be returning

The Weavers

Absolutely amazing food, Staff were friendly, polite, helpful.

The food you could tell was fresh home made, 10/10

Would definetly come back if i end up staying this way again.

Lobon Morees

We’re so lucky to have a delicious takeaway in our village. Lobon Morees’ food is always super fresh and tasty, especially their tandoori chicken, bindi bhaji & tarkha dhal. They were happy to cater for a recent milestone birthday which was very well received by all our 30-something guests. Would thoroughly recommend them for either a weekend takeaway or a bigger party.

The Coffee Corner

Truly wonderful local café serving an assortment of breakfast and lunch choices, and coffee. Excellent portions, with a Hungarian twist. Outstanding customer service!

Crumbs Cafe

As i work in the area every other week I use this cafe regularly as of late and most of the time with my work colleague
I've been there when it's busy, food is still good and today when it's was quiet and the younger staff working, it was rather pleasant hearing them interact with a nice energy whilst relaxing on my lunch break and a quick chat before I left, thank you and see you soon!

The Clifden Arms

Booked for 1 night whilst visiting family in Oxford. Can't fault the room or pub itself - room was spotless and perfect for what we needed. The food in the pub was lovely, good portions and generally locally sourced. The only thing that lets it down is the organisation.

We were not told that there was an 18th birthday party being hosted that night. If we had been told then we wouldn't have stayed there. Trying to put a 2 year old to bed whilst just hearing the beat of the bass in the music was a nightmare. Thankfully she eventually fell asleep out of sheer exhaustion.

We booked breakfast for 8.30 the next morning, but upon arrival were told that they were expecting us at 9. Then thought that we were staying for 2 nights, not 1.

The staff were all lovely, and were very gracious to give us a full refund, which we did not ask for but were very grateful.

Utopia Gifts and Coffee

Interesting selection of trinkets and soft toys . Didn't come for the cafe save for a cookie I bought so can't really comment on that but it seemed like a charming cafe.

Crendon Indian Cuisine

Had a wonderful experience at Crendon Indian's Tuesday night banquet. Lovely food and excellent value for money at £18 for a starter, main, side, naan, rice, Kopi.

Some minor points for improvement, I would have liked to hear some Indian music which would turn my Atmosphere 4 into a 5. The decaf coffee could have been a bit stronger.

Bricklayers Arms

Visited Bricklayers Arms with friends after work and had a really relaxing time. The atmosphere was cosy and welcoming, perfect for chilling after a long day. Nice outdoor seating, good vibes, and a proper traditional pub feel. We enjoyed snacks, drinks, and great conversations in a peaceful environment. Friendly staff and a lovely place to spend quality time with friends. Definitely worth visiting if you’re around Aylesbury. ?✨

Waddesdon Manor

Excellent visit to the gardens and aviary, unfortunately the house isnt open till the end of the month. Free to enter as Historic Houses member. There is regular shuttle bus from the car park up the hill to the house. Well worth a visit and will definately be returning in the summer!

Salim Take Away

Lovely food & staff. Always quick, polite & have conversation with you. Very nice food & tastes homemade, very good value for money. I would especially recommend the samosa’s for a nice snack!

Malebon

I have been going to Malebon for, let's say decades now. The food has always been of the highest quality and so fresh. The prices never seem to increase, which is a miracle these days. There are so many things to recommend from the menu, but my personal favourites are the kofta wrap, available as a meal deal too. The mini half Marocain chicken, and the breakfast tagine are also fantastic. Plus their chips always taste like holiday chips, which is so amazing. Highly recommend visiting if you've never been. Keep going, keep this place here for many more years to come.

Waitrose Cafe Aylesbury

Nice big shop with wide aisles meaning I could navigate around on my disability scooter without getting in other shoppers way.

The staff are always bright, cheerful and very helpful. There were plenty of them too.

Usual good selection of food and excellent quality too although recently, partly due to the much publicised computer glitch, choice of some items has been restricted.

Prices are not as high as you might be expecting but the quality is always top notch.

Today our checkout went very smoothly thanks to Helen.

Double Eight

NO OTHER CHINESE FOOD ESTABLISHMENT COMES CLOSE! I've been going to double eight since I was a kid (in my mid 30s now) and honestly, not only is it the best Chinese I've ever had, it's also run by some of the kindest and hard working people you'd hope to meet. The food is consistently top tier, they are my go to for cheat meal takeout cravings and the customer service and value for money is exceptional. I should've written a review long before now, but just to exemplify how good they are, they were super busy NYE and for the first time (due to the crazy demand) there was one incorrect dish and a few of the others were cold. I rang and without a hesitation they offered sincere apologies and provides the same value as the order for free, for the next order. Been a lifelong customer and will continue to be as long as I'm around this area. Thank you guys as always ?

Bakers + Baristas

best service from szymon he is the most kindest worker there offers freebies and everything the food is top quality and monika is very kind also and very amazing

The Works

My boyfriend and I went for his birthday brunch. Lovely delicious food - he had the french toast with bacon and maple syrup and I had the huevos rancheros, both of which we enjoyed a lot. We also decided to get something sweet, I went for the apple pie crepe and he had the salted caramel brownie. The menu states these come with Top of the Milk ice cream or whipped cream, or you can change the flavour for 75p extra. When we come to order, the waitress sneakily asks which flavour of ice cream I would like but I wanted whipped cream, and then when my boyfriend ordered the brownie she asked the same and said he could choose 3. This surprised us as we thought it was just one but we thought maybe this had changed since the menu was written. Well, we get the bill and it definitely hadn't! Not only were we charged 75p for changing one flavour, but an extra £2 per extra scoop on top of that!! This was so cheeky of the waitress to imply that the 3 flavours he chose were included in the price. We did not challenge this as I didn't want to ruin an otherwise lovely morning for his birthday, but beware these sneaky tactics if you go yourself!

More+ Cafe - Coffee, Tea & Homemade Cakes

My wife and I called in here with friends to get a coffee and smelled the bacon cooking so ordered a bacon bap , wow possibly the best bacon bap ever , lovely crispy thick cut smoked streaky bacon, would definitely have it again, lovely friendly staff and a warm welcome, great drinks also.

The Codfather

Fantastic food, honestly best fish and chips I couldn’t ask for anything better than the amazing fish and chips. Absolutely delicious. The service is great, a lovely lad named Jacob. He was so sweet and cheerful, asks about my day and my hobbies. Honestly more shops need to have a lovely young man like him and I’m glad Codfather treats him well and he returns it back for the customers. Lovely place and I would recommend to go there for the food and services.

Salt & Vinegar

Me and my Aunty thought we would try the kebab, and it didn't disappoint it was absolutely delicious, salad was so fresh. Great service and would definitely recommend ?

Bucks Balti House

I ordered another lovely takeaway last night from Bucks Balti. The vindaloo was excellent as was the starter and the Naan bread. The service also good as was delivered on time and was great value for money. Highly recommended

Trinity Coffee Shop

Kingdo Chinese

Probably the best chinese i’ve had in the uk! All tastes fresh and absolutely delicious. I usually dont like chicken reheated the next day, but this still tasted fresh! Not overpriced either, which is rare to find these days! Looking forward to our next delivery ☺️ thank you very much!

Golden Fry

Golden Fry Kebab offers a satisfying and flavorful experience. The meat is well-seasoned and juicy, the portions are generous, and the fries are crispy and freshly made. Everything is served hot and quickly, making it a great choice for a filling meal on the go. The staff is friendly, and the overall value for the price is very good. A solid spot for a tasty kebab when you’re craving something hearty and comforting.

Peri Peri Akhi’s

We’ve been ordering from Peri Peri Akhis for the past six years, and the quality has never dipped. Consistently delicious, always reliable, and one of the only two burger joints in town I’m genuinely happy to spend my money on. We’ve even done a few eat-ins when returning home late, and it genuinely felt like eating freshly made, home-cooked food. Highly recommended!
