Reasonable cask offering of Windsor & Eton Guardsman, TT LL, St Austell Tribute and Rainville Best Bitter. Large keg offering of Guinness, Hepcat, Estrella Galicia, Asahi, Camden Hells, Jubel Peach, Neck Oil, Sandford Orchards Devon Red cider, Siren Lumina, Yes pale ale from Goodness Brewing, Paulaner, Cali Pale from Tiny Rebel,
Pleasant predominately dark wood large L shaped pub with a narrow frontage and long length with the bar counter running along the right-hand wall beyond the small rectangle at the front of the venue. Some studded dark red leather banquettes around the corners of the venue with regular tables and chairs around the front and along the left-hand wall. Lighting was quite low level, and the venue was v busy on my early evening visit. There was a dining room at the back of the pub accessed via an arch, but I didn’t go and check as clear it was for diners only.

A substantial pub with a high ceiling and generous sized furniture ,mostly traditional at the front either side of the front door,with a dedicated small restaurant area beyond the long bar to the rear.There is a side beer garden,but the highlight is the rear riverside terrace with great views over the Thames with the towpath weaving between the pub and this terrace.
It has a gastro feel but there is also a community feel with a weekly quiz and rowing events advertised,there was a friendly welcome.The food is from a short menu ,freshly prepared with mains starting around £14,my fish and chips were well executed.
There are 4 handpumps drawing a house Boaty Mc Boatface (provenance unknown) ,GK IPA and Sambrooks Scrumdown (good nick) with another clip reversed.Decent pub that I would return to for food,I suspect the ale range may lessen the attractions of targetting this pub for a major session.Nearest pub to Craven Cottage so the atmosphere may change on match days.

A return since my first visit back around 2004 with a local friend who stated that the pub has been refurbished around three times in his 11-year presence. This is a large pub (not a gastropub) with an acceptable makeover as is typical of this type or residential environment; the place is by no means easy to find unless you are looking for it and has a fine beer garden overlooking the Thames.
Efficient staff were conjuring up Hophead's Dark Star, Sambrook's Session, Bedlam's Benchmark and Johnny Haynes' Best - a round of three Dark Stars came in at a little under £12 which is very good value, especially for the relatively affluent area and all were on good form.
On the minus side, there was a bunch of 'posh' kids, the youngest of whom couldn't have been a day over 16 - they couldn't handle their booze and were picking each other up, larking around and bumping into punters. Worse still was another bunch of seemingly lost chavs who were certainly aggressive in the language department; small children cavorted just a few feet away.
This pub isn't too bad, but management needs to get a grip on the people it allows in; points docked accordingly.
I'd come again, but only because there's not much else around here that warrants investigation.
