Situated on the High Street of Eton, close to the River Thames and between the historic buildings of Eton College and Windsor Castle, Gilbey's is open from 12 noon for lunch and 6pm for dinner every day.
Originally an old butcher's shop, we created one of the first wine bars outside London in 1975 - The Eton Wine Bar. After 25 years of success, we changed the name in 2000 to Gilbey's, having recognised that our food had outgrown the original wine bar concept. Our friendly and efficient team look forward to welcoming you in either the stunning Conservatory Restaurant, cosy Front Bar and Townhouse, one of our newly opened Townhouse guest bedrooms or our top floor studio apartment-our exclusive guest accommodation.

    Gilbey's is the perfect place to stay and eat on a trip to Eton and/or Windsor. Comfortable, quiet, and spacious accommodation; lovely restaurant with delicious, inventive, and reasonably priced food; and courteous and helpful service.

    We had a lovely meal and staff were very accommodating as I needed to use a walker to get in and out due to recent injury. The food was delicious and well presented.

    We booked for Sunday lunch which was based upon a fixed price menu for 2 or 3 courses. I prefer a meat free selection and my husband eats anything whilst my husbands’ shepherds pie was excellent, my vegetarian main course would barely pass as starter. There was almost no mozzarella in the croquettes so it was mainly potato which was ordinary on a well flavoured provencale style sauce. In summary the vegetarian option (only 1 on the menu) did not represent value for money. Lovely ambience, attentive staff let down by poor selection for the every growing need to invest in tasty and nutritionally balanced vegetarian/ vegan tastes.
