Gilbey's - Old Amersham Description
This is a most attractive restaurant, situated in the heart of Old Amersham; its facilities include a fabulous garden and a private dining room for up to twelve people. Their cheffing team, headed by Trevor John, is their best ever.
Some wonderful dishes are coming out of the kitchen - both the presentation and the execution just have to be experienced! There is a very reasonable two course menu at £13.75 every lunchtime Monday to Saturday.
On Sundays a traditional roast is always included, although be prepared for the size of the Yorkshire puddings! The set Sunday menu is £17.50 for two courses and £23.00 for three courses. There is also a constantly changing a la carte menu available at all times. Consult their easy to use Website for up to date menus.
They are now spreading their buying net for their wine list much wider by enlisting the help of Tom Gilbey - Bill and Caroline's son, who runs a very successful wine importing company called Jascots. They have a full list, which changes twice a year, and are able to introduce lots of new wines from throughout the world, not forgetting the established French classics.
They are ringing the changes much more than they used to and the selection process is an ongoing fascination. There are always a good and frequently changing selection available by the glass and 50cl carafe.
Finally, a word about the front of house team. Headed by Pippa, they are about the best in the business and the Gilbey's know how lucky they are to have them all. Pay them a visit and you will understand why.

Your Reviews of Gilbey's - Old Amersham
GJ (21 January 2008)
The food is nice and sevcie efficent, but the chairs are very uncomfortable.
Seven thirty for Eight Supper Club (10 July 2007)
I used the restaurant for my first ever event back in 2005 and we have returned twice since then. On that occasion we had the private dining room upstairs, which only seats twelve people but perfect for ten. The table was dressed beautifully, soft music on the CD player, flowers at the window, which were open to let in the summer air. It was perfect.
With the ambience set we settled down for a fabulous Sunday lunch with the biggest Yorkshire pudding I have ever seen. The food was superb and the service, friendly and attentive as always. I cannot fault the restaurant, I have never had a bad meal, they will do their very best to accommodate your requests. What more could you ask for? Do put it on your lists of places to try, it's a good one to drive out to and enjoy the surroundings.
