Perhaps the greatest pub I have ever had the pleasure to visit. Top building, top staff, top garden, top location, good drinks, food looked great. Has everything, really. 10 on 10. Makes me want to stay at Cookham for the weekend just to hang out here all day and night and to hell with the nearby river and other attractions (something about Stanley Spencer).

Back sooner than anticipated, owing to circs. Barman had cheered up and was positively friendly even..! Beer was much better too. Pleasant enough old place, but uncomfortable, rickety old country furniture. Chairs badly needed re-glued joints and the old tables you couldn't get your knees under without some interesting contortions..! There's something odd about the Brits. We put up with this oldy-fash period-pub stuff in stoic discomfort for the 'pleasure' of soaking up the ancient ambience of these places... Weird..! Still, once the memory fades a touch, I guess I'll be back..!

Great food a nice place to eat not really a drinking venue

Haven't eaten here for years, but from earlier comments, I see they still know how to charge..! The three of us spent most of our 'drinking only' evening here. I started with the Pride. It was the most appalling offering I've had for years... disgusting. That went back via the very dour, unsmiling South African bar-man and even 3 pints of lager failed to get the awful taste out of my mouth..! Nice old place, but beer undrinkable on the night, coupled with miserable service means that we won't be back for a good long while..!

As said below, this is more of a restaurant than a pub.
But there is a couple of small bar areas in front of the restaurant section where you can enjoy the usually very good London pride.
The food menu is very good but remember to take out a second mortgage before entering.
