    My husband found the choices limited. Staff were extremely helpful, friendly and efficient. Very good portion size. Limited parking but staff signalled us to park just by the door. Very pleased and looking forward to going back- with our dog!

    Overall a good experience however they didn’t have mint sauce for a lamb toast dinner so it would have been good to know that in advance as we would have ordered something else. However we did have a lovely meal and would definitely go again.

    Great pub, really well renovated with wonderful views overlooking the Thames. A really good menu, not too big with a nice variety Every dish we had was delicious but I highly recommend the chicken teriyaki skewers on the bar menu and the prawn & monkfish curry. Loved it
