Location

Pros:

  • "The best feature of this pub is the location: right by the river and with a large external sitting area."
  • "Next to the river, so lovely views."
  • "The location and atmosphere was amazing and beautiful though - right next to the river."
  • "The location (next to river) and design is great, these attributes are the best reasons for visiting."
  • "A lovely pub on the Thames, on the quiet side of Hammersmith Bridge."
  • "Really nice restaurant. I went there in a nice sunny Sunday, and the terrace is amazing."
  • "Great to be able to walk / cycle over Hammersmith Bridge again - opens up more options for an alfresco, riverside dining experience."

Cons:

  • "It’s in such a good location but with bad staff and even worse food it’s no longer worth it."
  • "Unfortunately when I was there was already dark, but I think is a beautiful view as the pub is next to the river Thames."
  • "Beautiful location and nice beer but on a glorious busy bank holiday weekend, the heavy handed security forcing drinkers to walk back inside an imaginary line delineating the licensed premises utterly destroyed the atmosphere."
  • "It has a good view of the Thames but you cannot actually see it without walking outside, also there is no service inside."
  • "This place gets heaving outside on a sunny day. Lovely views of the river by Hammersmith Bridge."
  • "If you like to dine with midge flies and get served expensive drinks then come here."
  • "Great spot for a drink, the terrasse is amazing in spring/summer."

  • "The staff are extremely friendly and helpful."
  • "Service during lunch hour is fast too."
  • "Service was spot on (nice and smiling waiters)."

Cons:

  • "Food was oily and not tasty at all. Staff is not interested at all, when we were ordering no one even wanted to listen…"
  • "The lady who was at the door was extremely rude."
  • "No one apologised for this service and they expected us to just be happy."
  • "Service isn't the most friendly but never wait more than 10 mins."
  • "Took an age for someone to take our order, when it wasn't particularly busy."
  • "Service was shockingly bad."
  • "Super disappointed with the service."

Food Quality

Pros:

  • "Good beer, good food, and reasonable prices for the area."
  • "Really nice restaurant. All of us got Sunday roast, pretty good."
  • "I highly recommend the duck, the truffle and duck egg toast and the sticky toffee pudding."
  • "Food was good though, but needed more vegetarian options for the mains, and service was wonderful."
  • "The food and drink were of very good quality."
  • "Expensive but very very good food."
  • "The food was delightfully delicious."

Cons:

  • "The kitchen is a massive disaster, almost 1 hour waiting for 2 dry slices of roasted pork, 1 portion of fish nd chips and a very bad mac and cheese."
  • "I feel like i’ve spent £22 on chips."
  • "Food is quite expensive and drinks too."
  • "Both dishes were bland and there was no salt whatsoever and I rarely add any salt to my dishes."
  • "The chicken burger was inedible and tasted weird - I believe it was old/off chicken."
  • "They had completely run out of gluten free options except for the ‘roasted cauliflower’ which arrived boiled and looked like it hadn’t even touched an oven - inedible."
  • "Food was oily and not tasty at all."
