It's a pub, Jim, but not as we know it. Much extended riverside venue which is one step above a family dining pub, although mainly catering for same. A modern glass conservatory and other outbuildings have been added, while the table-filled garden disappears off towards the river, which presumably is still there somewhere. The interior is also heavily tabled, with a bar somewhere in the middle dispensing London Pride, Red Fox, Gales HSB and Dark Star Revelation, this being an Asahi - sorry, Fullers pub. Probably better at quieter times but heaving on a Sunday afternoon.

This pub certainly takes advantage of its enviable location right on Teddington Lock and at the end of the footbridge over the river and lock. The garden (if the word covers it) is absolutely enormous and on a fine late June day tables were at a premium. Split into various areas, including "The Beach" as well as table tennis and also a childrens' play area, I have to say it was very well presented, tidy and efficiently managed going so far as to have smoking and non-smoking areas, a genuine plus when so many pubs' outdoor areas are now basically al-fresco smoking sections.
Inside the pub is tidy and has the fresh look of a recent makeover. There are separate small areas such as "The Library" each with an individual style. The aforementioned area has a full wall diamond pigeon hole bookcase with second hand books free for a charity donation. A front area has TV and film memorabilia such as film cans, lighting rigs and stills from the various shows and comedies that were filmed at the former Teddington Studios which stood nearby. An upstairs function room is "The Reel Room". There are a couple of maps of the River Thames on the wall and across a brick chimney breast and an area has wall mounted oars and other boating equipment. I spotted a couple of stuffed fish in cases.
Food is a major part of the operation and a conservatory and a further side area were set for dining however people were mostly eating informally elsewhere and outdoors. The beers were Pride, Dark Star Revelation plus American Pale Ale and Castle Rock Songbird. No sign of any of the other regular Fullers beers on cask. An ok spot especially when the sun is shining.

I drank and worked at The Anglers in 1970-71. In those days, it was more of the "olde English pub" where dogs and their owners parked for a few pints before struggling home. The publicans of the time (Sam & Midge - surname?) told us that there was an ale house on the site going back to Saxon times. Never checked that out. In my time there, the facade of the building was painted yellow and carparking was haphazard. In 1981, I visited the pub once again and it appeared much as it does today. What surprised me at the time was the almost total indifference of the staff to paying customers. Hopefully, that attitude has changed. The pub had taken on a yuppie appearance and lacked atmosphere, however, the beer garden would be sufficient reason to pay a visit on a warm day.
