Hof’s is my favourite dining experience in Henley.Great atmosphere and a warm welcome whenever i’m there. Its menu is fantastic especially good in the cold winter months when you need warming wholesome dishes. The Chicken curry and Prego roll dishes are my favourite with The service is brilliant and the prices are good to. Thoroughly recommend Hof’s to all age groups and palettes.
