Booked for a “halfway” family meal, never been before. What a gem of a find! The pub is beautiful with a stunning outside display of pots and baskets in full bloom. It’s right on Sandford Lock on the Thames so lovely to watch the boats.
We had a selection of meals and not a single moan from any of Our 8 strong party, quite a feat! The service was good and the prices reasonable. We will be back.
