A quality pub indeed. I spent a few hours sitting outside by the river on a warm late September afternoon/early evening - until an unusually high tide came up over the footpath forcing us inside. Lovely place to sit and watch the river roll by. The food in here is pretty good, but it's not cheap. The service has invariably been very friendly when I've been in there.This being a Fuller's house you expect the beer to be good, and I was not disappointed. It's very comfortable to sit inside as well as out. However, when I was in there in November 2008 they were still using sparklers for some reason, but they removed them on request. There can't be many Fullers pubs in London that use them – this is the only one that I know that does. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this remains a decent riverside pub.

I’m a big fan of Fullers pubs and this is one of my favourites as I have been using it for the last six or so years as my work local. The governor is nice enough in a dry sort of way and his wife is always very friendly to all who walk in. In the past the staff have been a bit miserable, but the current team are very friendly and on the ball. The bar runs most of the length of the main pub area and there is a range of Fullers beers alongside some standard draught. There is a conservatory with large windows at the rear of the pub and it has great views of the Thames. There is also a kitchen service area and some more seating around the corner of the pub at the rear, but strangely I have never had the need to venture around here.
There is some seating railed off from the tow path at the rear of the pub and there are also some picnic tables on the tow path for riverside drinking.
This pub is well worth a visit and in my opinion is the best in the area.

Large Fuller's pub along the side of the Thames.A bit foodie but the real ales are first class.Conservatory at the back and an outside drinking area at the side of the river which is a great peaceful place to sit in the summer.
