Always a nice place to visit within a stones throw of the Thames path in the quiet picturesque village of Sonning. Plenty of parking but busy at peak times. Generally best for breakfast and lunch times but the evening meals are limited to the lunch menu. Nice country atmosphere with comfortable sofas away from the food areas for drinks. Would recommend. Easy access for wheel chairs and buggies. Please like if this helped.Parking: Plenty of parking but will get busy as part of the hotelWheelchair accessibility: Reasonable access

I visited for a weekend for my sons wedding. The hotel and setting are just perfect, and lovely walking along the river. The room was very spacious and very comfortable bed, spacious shower, everything catered for. The staff were warm, friendly and very helpful. We ate in the coppa club Friday evening and for 2 breakfasts, staff very accommodating and warm and friendly, although busy food came quickly. Would highly recommend a visit, you won?t be disappointed.

Went here last night, on a warm summers evening. Sat on the terrace which was a wonderful atmosphere and it felt like you were outside due to the windows/doors being open. The main restaurant inside was a little quiet and didn?t have as great as an atmosphere but imagine in the winter this is different. The service was slow, it took 15 minutes for a drink/food order to be taken, but the food came out quickly once ordered. The food itself was delicious. I had the small carbonara which was cheaper and half the calories of the big version but was filling enough for a main meal, also had the truffle fries which were just delicious. My friend had a vegan burger which she said was very nice. It was £25 each for a glass of wine, main meal & service charge. The parking is free and you just need to register inside the restaurant. Overall would recommend for a warm summers evening!

Disappointed, room was smart but very small (think cruise ship) and below room 16 it sounded like they were offloading barrels of beer , or rearranging chairs and tables all evening, a constant noise. Coppa food was nice but service a bit of a shambles. Ate in the bar area , order taken at the table , got food, then didn't see anyone again. After half an hour went to the bar to be told they don't do table service. So ordered a round of drinks, got back to the table and someone came and took pudding order, but after getting pudding didn't see anyone again so had to go and settle at the bar. Shame as a nice setting.

Our wedding at The Great House was absolutely incredible and would HIGHLY recommend the venue!!! There are no words to really explain how fabulous the staff were in the lead up our wedding and throughout the day. Firstly, Natalie who helped me plan the day and made sure we were able to include all the details we wanted to make our day extra special and perfect. Natalie was absolutely amazing, very efficient - always getting back to me so quickly and always had the answers! She was so incredibly friendly and easy going, exactly what we needed. Jen co-ordinated the entire day, and did the most incredible job! The day would not have been the same without her. Everything ran like clockwork, nothing went wrong - not that I was aware of anyway! It was utter perfection. Jen made sure our special day was just perfection! Clare, who managed the catering staff was so fabulous! She did a great job in managing it all, nothing was too much and she was just so effective and super friendly!! Last but not least the food! It was delicious. I also have to make a special mention to how well they catered for allergies and special dietary requirements. My little girl has several allergies and they managed it all so well. I can?t thank everyone that worked so hard to bring it all together enough. We will never ever forget it! What a beautiful venue with absolutely incredible staff! We also stayed the night of our wedding in a beautiful room over look the Thames and everything was absolutely amazing. Thank you all SO much!

This was our first visit to The Great House @ Sonning celebrating our 1st anniversary. Overall, I could not fault this place. On arrival the receptionist was friendly and polite, the room was amazing, clean and comfortable with a few little touches to make us feel welcome. The only minor issues we found was the bar, when busy we struggled to get a drink and when we ate in the restaurant for dinner in the evening, the table was not clean and the service was a little slow?. But we didn?t let that over shadow our stay.

I was really looking forward to spending some time with my family there, but was deeply disappointed by the food. It was tasty...just the portion was small. Ordered fish cakes and two small cakes appeared on a couple table spoons of steamed cabbage and a spoonful of tarter sauce. Not cheap either. Lovely service and love paying bill at table with QR code.

I highly recommend this restaurant. The staff are very welcoming and pleasant (and toilets clean).Inside there is a range of cosy seating and outside a lovely open terrace, picnic tables and four glass pods.The food was excellent.(We had olives; courgette fritters and hummus platter then fish cakes; baked aubergine).Vegetarian options: There isn't a huge selection of vegetarian choice.Nibbles - courgette fritters very tastyStarters - broad bean hummus platter with flatbread goodMains Plant based burger, super salad or baked aubergine.Parking: There is a fair amount of onsite parking but if the restaurant is only 50% capacity I think parking may be more difficult.Be sure to register your car when visiting.

Lovely overnight stay. Staff were very helpful and restaurant food and service was very good. Excellent breakfast. Room was a great size and very clean. My only negative would be to put families with children on the ground floor, as the noise of kids running up and down room above you is extremely annoying. Great location for our evening at The Mill in Sonning seeing Gypsy.

Our second time at Coppa club and we really enjoyed it. They are pet friendly which make me love this place even more. The food is good (even though I have asked for a medium rare stake and they did not check and with another person who order same dish as well done had that?). The service could improve, every time they look so busy even though there were some empty tables. I have asked some water for the dog which I am still waiting for? overall we like the place and the food a lot. Parking space is a bit small and you might end up waiting a bit for a slot. We will definitely be back again soon.

Cosy and homely. Tucked away on the Thames path this hospitable and friendly place warmly welcomes you. Food and drink excellent and wide variety on offer. Lovely touch are the numerous comfy chairs under the wooden beams. All in all a must visit if in Sonning.

Went last week for what was meant to be an enjoyable family birthday meal. This turned into nothing short of a nightmare experience. Ordered food and had to wait over an hour for it to arrive, which gave us plenty of time to witness staff having time to play games rather than serving customers, obnoxious attitudes of staff when questioned about why our order was not only late but additionally served starters that we never ordered and were then informed to be rest assured that this would be taken off the bill (what a nice gesture!)Overall, it just ruined the celebration, with the whole group keen to just get home and forget the experience.
