Instead of making a big deal out of nothing, and may be congratulate the pub on bing busy. How can you say that anyway, Ive been drinking in this pub for almost 3years, and its the best its been in that time. So, look at it like this.....a pub is busy and you dont like it! Well there is two others to choose from!!

I will say to poeple who use this site for the REAL REASON, The Fisherman is a fantastic pub, that yes is a busy. The staff are great and the pub has a new manager who has given the place some life. I have not eaten in the pub, I stand at the bar, or if im with my family sit down, and we always have somewhere to sit. The only time I have seen every table booked up was on Christmas Day and Boxing day. However saying that, Kate or Alex (who run the pub) did get us a table on Boxing day even tho we were drinking.
Nothing is to much trouble to this couple, so all I can say in a nut shell is The pub has a great name now and GOOD im glad that its busy!

I visited the Jolly Fisherman, as part of a group of 9 people including 3 children. Despite there being several empty tables, we were told that we could not sit in the pub unless we were eating. We were given the option of sitting outside in the rain.

The owners of this establishment, would like to think of it a restaurant. so not the best place to pop in for a drink. This is a great shame beacause of it's location next to the River Lea Footpath.

The best thing about this pub is the superb location on the side of the River Lee and is an excellent stop off if cycling or walking along the River side to Ware. As stated below it is a McMullens pub with two clean and airy bars. There is an undercover garden section out the back by the car park but then a large green area which goes down to the river side. I'm not sure if this is part of the pub grounds or not, but there doesn't seem any problems taking your drinks over to sit by the river to watch the world and his wife go by. The Ales were the normal Country and AK. The Country was off during my visit this weekend but the AK was in good shape. We didn't eat but plenty of people were taking the Sunday roast on offer

McMullens pub next to the river so in a nice location. The main bar is fairly food oriented but the smaller bar is better. Ales generally kept OK but nothing special and the food is quite acceptable. Can get quite busy but the service is reasonable most of the time.

Seemed a pretty nice pub. Nice looking old building, and right by the river. Still, I asked for vodka and red bull and they automatically gave me a double which cost over £4.
