I used to like coming into this pub, the food was good, the staff well trained and the place always served from the whole bar. The managers knew what they were doing and were always working, not like the most recent bunch.
I was in the area and decided to visit with some customers - well what a shocking experience. As the reader below pointed out - the manager is an absolute joke. The place is filthy, the food was disgusting and the staff totally ignorant. This pub used to be run by decent managers, now I believe its owned by Faucet inn and I wouldn't give them another pound if my life depended on it.
Perhaps its time to ask the last managers to sort it out again - it only took them 5 years and these managers have killed it in 9 months!

A real hidden gem of a pub, with a beautiful riverside location. Unfortunately, the place can be a bit grubby at times, and glasses not so clean. Has the potential to be wonderful, if they utilised the upstairs venue for example. How about a quiz night? And why have they closed half the bar? A lazy Manager?
Location 10/10
General running of pub 5/10

Room for improvement, but one suspects, in another 6 months, they will have someone else running it.

Cycled past here yesterday with the other half and had 2 pints of shandy and a bag of peanuts. £7!!!

The pub was quite busy and half the bar was closed as mentioned previously. Unfortunately the manager belongs to the 'I'll stand on this side of the bar and drink my lager while the staff struggle and the punters get fed-up' school of pub management rather than jumping in and lending a hand.

Nice location on a sunny day.

A rip off. Yesterday ordered a pint of Eidelweiss a german wheat/weiss beer. The price £4.20 the quality poor. Far too cold it is not a lager, but staff reckon thats how it should be. The Speckled Hen is casked and gas served again WRONG WRONG WRONG. Get it right because you have lost a customer and judging on the sparse number in the bar a lot more as well.

Been coming here on and off for a while now but on my most recent visit I noticed that this place is improving rapidly. There seemed to be a much better class of customer in here and it was refreshing to come across friendly staff who knew what they were doing! Hats off to the landlord!
