    Sonning is perfectly placed for a number of award-winning pubs and restaurants. The French Horn, by Sonning Bridge and run by the Emmanuel family, is a truly special find.

On the other side of the river and you’ll find The Coppa Club, a popular brunch spot and ideal for summer cocktails on the lawn.
