Minimal GK offering of IPA and Abbot here. Keg was Flint Eye, Level Head, Hazy Day, Neck Oil, their own pub branded Smooth Stout, Peroni, Madri, Moretti, Estrella Galicia, Aspall, Old Mount berries & cherries, Guinness, Paulaner and Verdant Light Bulb.

A few doors away from the Blue Anchor was this similarly riverside GK establishment. Again, some picnic benches against the Thames wall before some undercover tables outside under their own awning. Inside this bare boarded venue had a traditional bar counter opposite the entrance with regular tables dotted around the space around and in front of the bar and similar in the space behind the bar. The odd ledge with stools also. High ceiling and a few chandeliers dotted around the ceiling space. Upstairs seating area with an elevated view of the Thames but the basic beer offering did not persuade me to stay especially this time of the year. Lots of dark wood panelling on the walls as might be expected also. The thud thud thud music being played here was so out of keeping with the venue it became a bit nauseating after a while. Pretty disappointing all told.
