We were treated to a lunch of fish and chips; which we took in the garden. Whilst we did enjoy the riverside views and sunshine, we would have liked an outside area with no smokers.

This Place Is Absolutely Amazing. The Atmosphere And Scenery Is Top Notch. Accompany This With The Brilliant Food And It's A Winner For All.

Extremely disappointed with the food. Considering I have been there on many occasions during the year the food has always been goodToday I can only describe as abysmal being famished I really needed to eat. The set Christmas menu was £30 for two courses The whole main meal tasted as if it had been reheated and lukewarm, the roast potatoes were burnt, the turkey was dry, the veg was nearly non existent…what I had was overcooked the gravy was far too salty Because I was hungry. I ate it but it has left a horrid after taste. The pudding was awful chocolate mascarpone cheese cake…it was so dry… popcorn was awful… with more cream it was still dry…My friend next to me had to send her meal back as it was cold. When she got it back the beef was so fatty she couldn’t eat it. Consequently she didn’t have anything to eat.I did tell the waitress, she gave me a card to write in about my complaint… I would like to know what the owner thinks of how his business is being run. If the head chef is having a day off perhaps you should close down for the day as the food that you serve on those days is substandard!I very much doubt I will advise anyone to eat at this restaurant!I await your response!

Sorry but this isn't a gastropub. The food was pretty dire. french onion soup was hot on one side of the bowl and luke warm in the other.Porchetta looked amazing, but on moving the meat, the carrots were cremated. No chef should send out black vegetables. The waitress asked me to wait while she replaced it. 16 minutes later, the section waitress asked what was wrong with the food. She then went to replace it.Then the gentleman I assumed was the manager came over and told me there had been a misunderstanding and they thought I was eating it and were bringing me replacement carrots? 26 minutes to cook replacement carrots? Left me feeling the whole experience was my error, not theirs.The chicken (pollo picanti) was unrecognisable. It looked more like a bad Nandos. Very low quality chicken and again massively over cooked.The waiting staff were stretched. 45 minutes for the starter to arrive & then 40 minutes for the main. I am very disappointed and can not recommend it.

First time there on recommendation of colleague at work. Not disappointed. Nice Modern Gastropub with a view of the river. Would be lovely to sit outside on a summer's day. Welcoming and attentive staff. We had the shared antipasti which was nice, maybe roccotta cheese might be too much. I have the Sumac Lamb Shank with was nice but slightly over done outside. My wife has the Buttered Cod which was tasty , tad too much chorizo. Good size portion . Price point a bit expensive overall. But a pleasant experience overall

Visited on a Saturday night. Had booked a table and was given a lovely one overlooking the water. The restaurant is very nice and views even better.Great vegan options on the menu, had the beetroot burger which was ok. Also had the sticky toffee pudding which was very nice.Special mention to Laura who was really lovely and friendly. Would love to come back and try more of the vegan options!

Lovely restaurant and Ella the waitress was lovely. We all had the roasts and it was the nicest i’ve had in a while from a pub. We booked the igloos and had an amazing experience.
