Angled corner pub on the far side of Batchworth Lock, but only a short walk from the town centre. Modernised inside, but its shape and features such as the bow windows avoid too sterile a feel. As a Greene King house, it was no surprise to find IPA (£4.60) and Abbot available from the four handpumps.

Had a bit of a refurb and new tenants December 2012 and the emphasis became more on food. By December 2013 it had changed hands again and the menu has a distinct Indian bias to it. Still a decent enough pub.

Been visiting here for a number of years during a regular Rickmansworth pub crawl and it’s good to see that it has remained as a pub rather than gone down the restaurant/bar route. Always a friendly welcome and it’s a good place for a beer. Green King beers and they usually have the Abbot Reserve in around Christmas.
