Make sure you book if you're eating because it gets busy, and once you've eaten here you'll know why! Excellent food served by friendly, helpful staff and a comfortable, cosy place. Thoroughly recommended.

Lovely little pub on the river. We visited for a Sunday roast - reasonable price for a huge portion and good food. Admittedly, it wasn't the best roast meat I've had (I had beef, husband had lamb - the lamb was definitely nicer!) but would still definitely visit for a roast dinner and to try their ordinary dinner menu.
Also dog friendly which is a massive bonus for us!

Popped in with my husband and child. Sat by the river, fed the Swan and ducks and had a wonderful dinner!. Small play area for children. Very pleasant staff. Nice selection of real ales. Only thing I could fault, was the litter around the play area and broken glass outside seating area had not been cleared up this afternoon and we were there a good 2hrs. Don't let that put you off as I'm sure it's not normally like that.

Great Pub alongside the river! Been here a few times with people from work! Good home cooked food with friendly service!
Worth booking to reserve a table as it can get busy!
Some places manage to do the simple things well, this is one of those places! 👍

Food lovely and good size portions for the price you pay. Staff in the week days are generally nice although not that keen on the weekend staff who can't even be bothered to say hello, whilst leaving you waiting to be served
Atmosphere is only low as due to the very hot weather most people were outside by the river, which look lively. we sat inside which was quite but this was our choice.
would go again purely for how nice the food is.

We only had drinks, so we can not review the food. Great pub with outdoor seating with the river running alongside your seats.
Lovely pub to spend a relaxing evening. Socialising with friends.
Staff all very cheerful, great choice of beers.
