| The Fish is a welcoming and appealing old country pub with its leaded partly stained glass windows, gables, ivy clad walls and riverside location. The interior has plenty of beams, pillars and exposed brickwork despite being obviously refurbished, extended and opened up although the pub still retains its old world charm. Fortunately they have managed to find a decent balance between diners and drinkers with the area near the main door with its large brick fireplace mainly for the diners and the drinking area situated by the carpeted, barrel shaped main bar with its views up through the beams into the superb vaulted roof. There are plenty of pots and pans, bottle racks, lanterns, horseshoes and various nick nacks on display but a visit to the loos may take longer than expected as the corridor doubles up as a mini museum with wartime newspapers, old signs, 19th C key collections and various odds and sods. The furnishings are rustic with settles and plain wooden seating which blend in well with the ambience. 3 Ales when I was there (admittedly some time ago) - Black Sheep, Adnams and Spitfire. To the rear is a public bar with games machines & TV. They do speciality food nights (Steak on Thursdays, Fish on Fridays) but I didn’t get a chance to eat here so cannot comment on the quality. The extensive beer garden takes advantage of its setting on the banks of the River Arrow and has a childrens play area so there isn’t really an excuse not to pay a visit if in the area.

| Called in on a journey 100 miles from home for Sunday lunch 14.1.07. Excellent old riverside pub with real wood fires. Good real ales, faultless service and the BEST food we have eaten in many years, well cooked and presented !! I have written many reviews on a number of sites over the years but this pub is the TOPS. I only wish it was closer to home :(( mada - 14 Jan 2007 19:30 |
| Lovely position. Bit overcrowded and very smokey. If you like a working mans pub then this is for you. Food is ok. Everything with chips, if you know what I mean. Wise - 5 Jul 2005 09:27 |
