Lynn has been fancying a curry for some reason the last couple of weeks and I had read about the Highwayman Pub in Yateley a while back… so when we got a flyer through the door advertising a Curry night every Wednesday at The Highwayman, it seemed like a sign for us to go have a curry !
The pub is in Monteagle Lane in Yateley and was formerly called The Monteagle
We turned up early (at 6pm) which was when they started serving food from the Evening menu so was empty, but found the staff friendly, efficient and courteous and the service was excellent. It’s been about 20 years since we were in the pub, so don’t remember the original decor and ambience, but today it is clean and pleasant. There is still some character retained and seems a nice place to spend some time eating and drinking.
The menu was varied and there were also specials available. We had gone for the “Curry Night” and although it transpired this basically meant you got 10% discount off the Curry’s on the standard menu, this was sufficient for what we wanted.
The food was plentiful and very tasty… and the puddings were nice as well :-)
The only slight negative is the prices are more akin to a restaurant rather than a pub. With the discount we got, our food did represent reasonable value for money but just have a nagging doubt it is a bit overpriced.
Overall we both enjoyed our meal out and are planning to go back to give it another chance to impress us some more, probably on a Saturday night next time
Well worth a visit, but don’t expect a cheap night out.
