Pub & Drink Selection
The Windsor Trooper is an 18th-century public house serving 10 traditional ciders daily, earning the Slough, Windsor & Maidenhead CAMRA Real Cider Pub of the Year award in both 2022 and 2023. The bar stocks a wide choice of Belgian beers, a fine wine selection, and a large batch of gins alongside specialty ales. Guests can enjoy these drinks in the sun trap garden or at the bar, with live music every Thursday and a quiz night on the last Wednesday of each month.
Accommodations
The inn offers 9 private-entry rooms, each with an ensuite shower room and tea/coffee making facilities. A separate two-bedroom family apartment provides a kitchen and is laid out for families with young children, not recommended for four adults. Ground-level rooms sit adjacent to the beer garden and have a separate entrance from the pub, keeping the accommodation independent from the bar noise.
Location & Parking
Located a short walk from Windsor Castle and the town centre, the inn sits in a residential area that feels safe and family-oriented. Paid parking is available nearby at the Windsor College car park, costing £12.50 for 24 hours, with free parking from 9pm to 9am. Many cafes and restaurants are within a two-minute walk, including an Indian restaurant next door and a coffee van that parks outside Monday to Saturday.
Entertainment & Events
The pub hosts live music every Thursday evening and a quiz night on the last Wednesday of each month. External caterers rotate through the pub, offering pizza, pies, and other food options on different nights. The beer garden closes promptly at 10pm, allowing guests to sleep without disturbance after a lively evening.
Family-Friendly Facilities
The family two-bedroom apartment comes with a kitchen and separate sleeping areas, making it suitable for parents with young children. Rooms have private entrances, and the pub garden offers a safe space for children while parents are nearby. A coffee van with pastries arrives each morning, providing a quick breakfast option without requiring an on-site restaurant.
