Still a huge fan of the pub & my weekly local. Recently been decorated & sky TV & wii installed. Large car park which last year was resurfaced, Marque & patio been created to a high standard for weddings & parties. every Saturday night full to the brink as various entertainment nights weekly from fancy dress, themed nights, school disco, casino nights, disco, karoke with regular competions, live singers & bands-never a dull evening. New faces all the time of all ages. Definatly worth a visit-the more the merrier & you'll always receive a friendly welcome from the locals & staff. Martine (the owner) has done a fab job-time for her to relax-her hard work really has paid off

No real ale

Discovered this pub in November 2006, has been my local every weekend since. Really large pub with function room available to hire for partys at a reasonable price. Every saturday night some form of entertainment whether it be a live singer, karaoke, dj or themed fancy dress night. Saturday night is always a full house attracting not just regular locals but new faces every weekend. The new owners have really turned the pub around and have a lot to offer. The food menu is brilliant with lots of choice and all home made-sunday roast out of this world with large portions and value for money. Garden at back of pub large with childrens playground and based on a river with excellant views-will be really nice in the summer. Definatly a pub to check out-we love it!

This pub has now been taken over and is back to its old self. Beautifully clean, great range of food on the menu including Sunday Roasts all home cooked. Regular enetertainment in the form of Salsa Classes, Quiz Night, Live Music, Karaoke (Including a Pub Idol competition in January, Which I have entered!) Also now have Pool and Darts teams and a top class jukebox! Now back to being a family run pub, ne owners are open to an suggestions from anybody and all are taken on board! Striving to help out local charities. Function room has been totally refurbished with snazzy chandaliers and the buffet's provided are second to none! Call me biased but I think the place is fantastic and this summer will be the best yet according to the plans! Also there are plans for disabled access to the garden area... All in all this place is undergoing a turnaround of massive proportions so come back and check it out! The place has been packed recently!

I`m really surprised no-ones really got hold of this pub and spent some money on it because its got tons of potential.Its a nice building and could be real good proper pub ( not a bar) Went there in the summer and never realised it had a dusty unused basement bar overlooking the riverside garden, it could be great place for summer gigs, only problem might be the residents moaning about the noise
|
There has only been one good man in there in the past 6 months and he left. You could see that he was going to pull it round but push come to shove and he had to leave. SHAME!!!

We were appalled at the state of the pub, dirty floors,dusty shelves, smeared mirrors, toilets with no toilet paper. The place has not been cleaned for weeks!! I was served by an unkempt man who had a child sitting on his shoulders,Health and safety not his strong point, his partner looks about 12 and both lack customer service skills or personality. A laptop was placed on the bar with loud out of date music, making it difficult to hold a conversation. Still no sign of food being offered, although a sorry excuse for a sign has been placed on the womens toilet door (slightly sexist) personally having worked in the trade I would not want to work for the two people who are currently running the pub (into the ground I may add) This is a lovely traditional pub full of character, the previous people gave it a community spirit running different events over the year. Plus no Sky!!!!!! no Sport coverage of the big events, the locals deserve better.We will not be using this pub again until they get someone in who cares about the pub and the residents and is enthusiastic about running/Managing a pub, and keeping this lovely pub alive. Yours in Disgust.

Beautiful pub, used to have fantastic management and fantastic food. Now they've left? Not so great. The place looks like it hasn't been cleaned in weeks. Dirty floors, dirty toilets, baby in a nappy behind the bar. As a previous reviewer said, there is no food, but they have put a 'cook wanted' ad on the door to the ladies. It will be a huge loss if this pub with a country feel becomes another Uxbridge dump.

Really nice pub, just because it's not busy at lunchtimes doesn't mean it's a bad pub. Really friendly staff and good management.
|
They have recently changed management. No food on offer, half ther beer is off. Absolutely no one in their at lunch time - speaks volumes for the current state if this place - avoid at all costs!
|
Strange pub, in strange location. OK enough though.
|
The best kept secret in Uxbridge. Excellent staff and management, friendly atmosphere and great beer garden. So good it shouldn't be in Uxbridge.
|
This is the best pub in uxbridge. The meals are out of this world, reasonably priced and so tasty i give it 10/10 the staff are great too.

Great pub, very friendly. Just had a complete refit- it now has smart wooden floors and clean walls. Makes the place seem much bigger. Margaret (the landlady) insists that it is still a pub and hasn't become a trendy bar/restaurant, and since the same crowd still drink there I think she's right. Can't wait to hear the bands in there- the wooden floors will have changed the acoustics completely!

the house band used to get funny with you if you dared to play Mustang Sally (cos they ended EVERY week with it!!!) and chap who organised sunday music got funny with locals - ahhh memories. Bit too much of a locals pub - do it their way or they get funny! nice landlady though.

I used to join in at the jam sessions on Sunday evenings when I had the time. A good venue for all the local musicians to get together for a blast. Good quality real ales as well, what more could you ask.
