"This restaurant is a local gem, good value for money, fantastic decor and atmosphere. There's a good selection on the menu and something for everyone. My only criticisms are that the menu had options only for meat eaters and vegetarians. There was nothing highlighted for vegans. I was able to identify from the vegetarian meals and starters which one's would be suitable for me, but there was nothing for me when it came to desserts. When I asked one of the waitresses about if there was any dessert suitable for my vegan diet, she didn't seem to understand what it meant. At least I was able to get a starter and main that tasted delicious. One of my party ordered a dessert that turned out to look nothing like the photo on the menu. The explanation was that they had changed supplier. It would have been helpful to know that was the case before ordering. Having said that, they did take it away and didn't charge is for it. The other thing I always like when dining with people is that our food arrives at the same time. This was not the case at this restaurant. Staff were attentive, courteous and helpful. At one point, a few senior looking men went around to all the diners to check if everything was okay. I really liked that as it made us feel they genuinely care. I would like at least one vegan option on the dessert menu before I return again, but overall, it was a good experience and I highly recommend in. Well done Lara Grill!"

"My husband and I visited this pub recently. I booked online but as it was a lovely evening we decided to early to enjoy a drink in the beer garden. We went to the bar and I explained we had a booking but came early to enjoy the nice weather. Unfortunately our booking hadn’t been received due to a glitch in the online booking system but it wasn’t a problem. The young lad running the bar gave us our drinks and we went out in the beer garden. Nice atmosphere, full of locals and great views. We then went back inside and went to our table. I commented that there was a lack of staff compared to my last visit with the young lad running the bar, clearing tables, fixing the computer system as it had gone down and taking food orders. A real one man band. We made a comment to him about no staff and he was very polite and didn’t “dump” his problems on us, instead he was complimented us on our patience etc. our starters arrived all very good. Our mains arrived and were equally good. Other customers didn’t seem to have the same experience as us due food items not available etc. The chef was the breakfast chef and not the regular restaurant chef and full of apologies to the disappointed customers. We were too full for dessert so went to pay the bill and it was suggested we get takeaway desserts which we had did. This pub is a great place with friendly helpful staff who work hard so whatever problems they are going through at the moment I hope they resolved soon as would be a shame if bad reviews started coming in and ruin their reputation."

"After spending 19 hours in the emergency department of the hospital we arrived in Buckingham around 2 pm and as we were hungry we decided to go to eat at Prezzo, which we had never been to before. As soon as we entered we saw a middle aged blonde woman who asked us if we had a reservation (which surprised me because the restaurant was empty except for 2 tables, I thought that she didn't seem to control the reservations she had, if she managed it well she would have known that we didn't have a reservation). She spoke to us all the time in a very rude way and looked down on us. We placed our order, but about 2 minutes later I went to the bar and asked her to please change some dishes, she spoke to me very rudely and started banging on the computer to cancel the dishes very aggressively and very angry. We ordered the following: Caesar salad, the portion of food is too small to be worth £13.95, a supermarket bag has a lot more, and they brought it to us without the egg. Spaghetti Bolognese, when we came in we saw at one of the tables that they served it with a large amount of bolognaise on a separate plate but they brought us very little bolognaise on top of the spaghetti, it doesn't seem to me to be a dish worth £13.50. Penne Alla Rusticana, a lot of penne and not enough chicken and only 4 small pieces of ham, the pepper was also scarce, the sauce was more like cream with a little tomato for colour, not much flavour, not a dish worth £14.50 either I had to go and get it to ask for grated cheese, the other table next to us had a large bowl of grated cheese for the same diners and we got a very, very small portion. For dessert we ordered tiramisu which was brought to us with a blonde hair on top. To pay I had to go again to look for her who was on the terrace sitting at a table with the chef looking at her mobile phone. We were treated as if we were not good enough for the restaurant or could not pay the bill, the meal cost us £64.10, which seems very expensive for the treatment and the food, in my opinion they gave us smaller portions because the manager did not like us. I have never been made to feel so bad. Of course I will never go to a Prezzo again."
