"Do not come here! Absolutely shocking service and staff attitude in this establishment. My partner and I ordered our food, 40 minutes went by and tables seated after us were receiving their orders before we had so much as a starter. It became very clear they had not passed our ticket to the kitchen. When I asked one of their teenage waiters what was the hold up was, there was absolutely no concern for issue. It then took a further 15 minutes for a manager to resolve the problem. Today we tried again as the restaurant has a nice outdoor seating area, however, upon our entry to the bar area no one came to seat us or even acknowledge we were standing there. We left and will never return."

Nice ambience with good selection of Fullers ales and other brands. Small selection of toasted sandwiches and fries available as well as daily specials. Lovely outdoor seating area overlooking the Kennet Avon canal. Nice friendly staff.

clean and modern bar however extremely over priced for £7 a pint! The bar staff were so great and friendly (joe was amazing and so great). Sadly I am unlikely to come here again as there are very similar pubs in Newbury at half the price for the same quality.

What a lovely situated pub on the river Thames. Lovely decor and really nice staff. But wow. What a let down with the food. I wouldn't even serve this in a school for free. And the price wasn't cheap! So much potential, ruined by not looking after customers but charging a fortune

Steak was pretty much the best I’ve had in the UK so far (including proper silverware that allow you to cut into meat without a struggle), cooked exactly as a rare steak should be however I would have enjoyed it much more if the kids noise would have been reduced and the background music increased (obviously a parent problem there). Waited for more than 40 minutes for two dishes to come out knowing that the table was to be free within an hour and a half from arrival. Dog friendly pub with nice seating view outdoors towards the canal.

"Went here to celebrate a couple of friends birthdays and had a very mixed evening. It was a Monday night so it was quiet and we were one of only a handful of tables. We were a party of four and there were no tables any larger than ours in that evening. We were seated quickly and that was about the one and only thing that happened all night with any kind of urgency. Our orders were taken and we were waiting 20 minutes or more for our first round of drinks. About half way through this, we were informed that three of the four meals we had ordered were sold out (something you'd think we'd have been informed of at the time of ordering . We thought we could quench our thirst with some water whilst waiting for our drinks but sadly no one ever came over to refill our glasses. When the food finally arrived it was delicious and I couldn't fault it at all (even if it wasn't my first choice on the menu! , so that made up for lack of service. We ordered a dessert each although only 3 of them arrived. My friend had to ask for her coffee which also didn't have any signs of showing and then when her dessert didn't show she just gave up on it (it was never put through the system . I ordered a glass of red wine, specifying the wine and was given a glass of what I assume was house red at least I wasn't mis charged for it as it was cheaper than the one I ordered! Even paying the bill was an ordeal, taking us a while to get it and then having to go through line by line to see if any of the food we ordered and didn't get hadn't been taken off (there was one additional meal on the bill . All in all a bit of a shambles but at least the delicious food and the wonderful company meant it didn't dampen our evening too much. Don't think I'd come back on a quiet night again, seems the service staff take it as a sign to disappear."
