Mietta's Review
The Windsor Castle has long had a reputation for good bistro food and great counter meals, all served in a comfortable, slightly old-fashioned, situation. In February 05 Kurt Sampson, one of Greg Malouf's better known protoges, has taken over the kitchen. The counter meals will stay but the dining room food will take on some of the Middle Eastern flavours that Kurt uses. This should be one to watch in 05, particularly at these prices.

The Foodies'Guide 2004,Allan Campion & Michelle Curtis,'Danny Chapman is the master behind the stoves here.His food is retro-ish and we love it.Sample the snacky food and bar nibbles or go the whole hog with pizzas,curries and grills with a twist.But leave room for dessert:perhaps the spotted dick or jam roly-poly will be on the specials board.'
