Great outdoor vibe and beautiful views of the river. The half chicken was horribly overcooked so dry like cardboard. Such a waste. At least I won’t get salmonella!

Had an amazing lunch & had a fantastic view of the river with my girlfriend. Amazing food, drinks & service. Also played lots of Uno & met the pub dog. Would definitely come again.

Good menu, food options were slightly limited until 3pm but what we chose was lovely. Don’t wait long for food to arrive and the setting along the river bank was very pleasant.
