Bucking Fastard left this review about The Sail Loft
Large Fullers pub in a modern building directly on the Thames Path with great views of the river activity.The bar room is modern with high tables and some low backed seating booths further along close to an open kitchen.Outside the is a decked seating area underneath sail styled awnings.I didn't investigate the seating area on the first floor but it looked like a dining area from the towpath.
Just London Pride and Olivers Island on offer,the latter a joke at £3.90 for a half and dull NBSS 2. The food options were expensive with starters median £9,mains £19 and sandwiches & chips £12 so I didn't eat.
Although the view is great,you certainly pay for it,the ale was unimpressive even if the seasonal ale had not been conditioning and I am most unlikely to return.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Sail Loft
Shiny new Fuller's pub in a prime riverside development with fine views overlooking the Thames. Both ground and first floors feature island bars within elongated rectangular rooms designed to maximise the benefits of the windowed frontage. Modern furniture and decor throughout, but in decent weather the outside tables are definitely the main attraction. On this second visit, I found a slightly better choice of real ales available from the two banks of four handpumps in the main bar and three more at first-floor level: Pride, Seafarers, Oliver's Island and the seasonal Wise Men.

The previous reviewers sum this place up nicely. Like them, I found the ale choice a bit uninspiring with London Pride, Seafarers, and Oliver's Island on. I didn't see a menu but they obviously do food. The upstairs, or mezzanine, floor is labelled as a dining room, but the tables weren't laid for diners and there didn't seem to be anything stopping us from having our drinks up there. But we were in on a Wednesday lunchtime, and it might be different in the evening.
It's clearly very modern in appearance, but some effort has been made to recognise the area's maritime heritage, with model ships as decor, what looks the remains of a ship's wheel as a table upstairs, rigging supporting lights, and one wall at the top of the stairs covered with bits of old packing cases. The furnishings are comfortable enough, if quite modern.
The main selling point of this pub is its enviable riverfront location, with excellent river views from the upstairs dining room, or from the outside seating at the front of the pub on the river pathway. It's nice enough even if there's nothing remotely traditional about. But perhaps in a 100 years or so pubgoers will be enthusing about this place an unspoilt example of a classic late Elizabethan glass and steel pub.
