"We'd planned a day out on an exploratory trip for Antiques and collectibles to Wallingford and planned to leave home early (45 minutes drive) so we could treat ourselves to lunch somewhere. When we found the Antique centre (over the road) we decided to check...out the menu and it immediately grabbed our attention as we love fresh fish. After our antique browse we popped in, to be greeted by the manager owner? who led us up the (apparently scruffy from one reviewer) stairs, he apologised for lack of carpet but I remarked we liked it, sort of suited the style of the place. Led into 1st floor one half of the restaurant, seated where we chose and had the style of the food and serving well explained to us. We picked the shared taster from the menu and also a salt aged steak. A lovely bottle of red and a home made lemonade to keep us going but we didn't have to wait long. We'd picked the sampler as I love scallops and prawns and my partner likes everything but especially Mussels. Well the food was excellent and even I had about 8 mussels where I normally don't eat them. So fresh and tasted of the sea. The steak was cooked to our request and was again excellent. An excellent feed too as we'd skipped starters but couldn't manage a pudding. The chips were really lovely too, we went for the ginger and chilli dressing for the sea food which wasn't too spicy and the ginger came through really nicely. All in very fairly priced, lovely staff and we'll certainly return. The only thing I would say is a lack of veggie or straight fish options, as we were talking to friends today about taking them here and one of them only likes fillet style fish or veggie vegan options, so if there's not a fillet of fish on the specials she'd be stuck. However as a couple we couldn't fault our first experience and will be back."

Not for me. The menu is limited though is meant to be a tapas style event …… didn’t really work for us and I’m not sure how fresh the fish is. Nice staff and a lovely bottle of wine but the whole ‘thing’ just didn’t...float my boat.

what a beautiful meal. the menu was very good with the choice for both fish lovers and steak for those who did not. we went to our jubilee meal and really enjoyed our time there. that was delicious. the lady who served us was beautiful during. a little expensive, it is certainly a place to go for a contract.

such an incredible meal and cocktail the steak baguette with chips. we were annoyed by the beautiful deco above. the personal was friendly and accommodating. one of the best cocktails I had in a long time lavender and lemon martini. that was so, a perfect place and one of the only places that wanted to serve us between the hours of lunch and dinner.

Heard this was worth a visit and so booked an early dinner spot. The menu is interesting and inventive KFC popcorn anyone? with a wide variety of fish, shellfish and beef. We had scallops, naked' prawns and some Angus sirloin steak. the whole...washed down with several glasses of wine from an interesting list. Service was friendly and impeccable. This is a place that deserves to thrive it was fairly quiet when we visited so give it a go you aren't likely to regret it.

What a very unusual and enjoyable evening.. Taking my partner for a surprise evening out was surprisingly different and thoroughly enjoyable. The food was excellent as was the service. The surroundings were as unusual as the style of the meal, which was a shared selection...of shellfish and steak. Every dish was cooked perfectly, although we are out of practice eating crab.. we were given all the right tools to enjoy every morsel. The steak was tender and tasted wonderful. Mussels were equally tasty, and the seafood popcorn was delicious. This was topped off with a portion of chips and fresh bread, both were equally of the same high standard. Highly recommended.

"We usually love coming to Cafe Rouge in Henley, always a treat for us and we are always looking forward to it. However the most recent visit was awful and it’s been going downhill over our last coupes of visits. We booked a table for my father in laws birthday. Upon being seated, we were informed that 3 of the main course dishes were unavailable.. pretty much half of the ‘mains’ options. We don’t come to Cafe Rouge for Burgers or salad! We opted for 3 portions of Mussels as had them here before and they’re very good! Mother in law just had pate as there was nothing else she wanted. These were possibly the worst mussels we’ve ever had. You could tell they weren’t fresh (cooked from frozen for sure) and there was barely any sauce in the pot! Usually they are flavourful and abundant in sauce! No check back was performed by the manager on duty..it was a quiet Monday so wasn’t exactly run off his feet. So we couldn’t alert him. Even upon clearing we weren’t ask how our meal was! Just asked if we had finished. We decided to mention they were awful to which the manager told us he would inform the kitchen. When he came back to finish clearing, my partner asked if they were frozen or fresh mussels, to which the manager replied yes, they are frozen. Wasn’t expecting that but you could totally tell! They tasted like cardboard! We had a coffee and a pudding and to be fair to the manager he didn’t charge us for one portion of mussels and the coffees we ordered. The Bill was certainly not worth what we had. Didn’t leave a tip, which we never normally do, but the service was non existent. Manager was more interested in what was on his phone. Won’t be rushing back"
