Great for outdoor dining
Good for groups

'The Crabtree, with its spectacular position downstream from The River Cafe,
has a huge sprawling garden, a glazed colonnade and frontage on to the
Thames shaded by a weeping willow. The prawns in chilli hot oil and the toast
spread with tomatoes and onions were good, so much so we ordered them
again when we returned for Sunday lunch. Sunday roasts with 'all the
trimming's' - we tried beef and pork - had everything a Sunday roast should
have. Somewhere rather spiffing to go' (Fay Machsler, Evening Standard)

The pub was very busy and the staff were very friendly and attentive. Unfortunately our food was cold I ordered extra gravy which helped warm it slightly. We should have told the staff but as it was packed and we were going to a show we didn’t have time for them to sort it out.

We have lunched at Crabtree a few times now since daughter moved down to London to live and study nearby. Usually happy with the experience. To celebrate daughters big birthday I booked a month or so in advance and requested a specific table we liked and which would accommodate our party. When we arrived, the guy showing us to our table acknowledged that we had made such a reservation but said that someone else had given the table away - I took a look and there were a couple of young people (we were a party of 5) at the table we booked who looked more like casual diners who had walked in off the street rather than a larger dinner party. A simple 'sorry', and the guy showed us to our new table which happened to be in the very busy area in front of the bar - and he was off. Clearly not a big issue for him but ruined the ambience of my daughters birthday celebration. Why can't some people understand that what is a 'non-issue' for them might be a big deal to their customer? No offer of any compensation - ie free round of drinks - which would at least have been something - just completed indifference. Thanks for spoiling my daughters birthday. We are unlikely to come again as a result. BTW, the waitress was understanding and lovely so we gave her a tip rather than paying the restaurants suggested service charge. Not a great experience.

Nice Sunday lunch. But it was very busy and the kitchen struggled with that. Our mains took a long time, which was a shame as staff were good and the food was delicious when it arrived. Still, they gave us a discount. Would come back.

Hi Mark, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We did have some issues on Sunday and apologise for the wait for your main courses. However, it is great to hear that the food was delicious and the team were good. We would be delighted to host your Sunday lunch again! Team Crab
