Star & Garter - London in Wandsworth - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I lived across the street at 6 University Mansions from June through September of 1974 and after 50 years I’m finally returning this time with my wife and daughter! I simply can’t travel to London without returning to the Iconic Star and Garter…for lunch, drinks and sharing so many fond memories spent with new friends and my UK family…late night walks along the river and through Bishops Park…I cannot return to London without returning to the beloved Star and Garter…to reminisce…well of course…but also to discover and appreciate the changes that I know 50 years has surely brought…I have wonderful memories and great expectations…can hardly wait to walk through the doors and like MacArthur in the Philippines announce to the World …well actually more modestly to my family “I Have Returned”…🇺🇸•🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿•🇬🇧 ❤️🤍💙!!!

Visited this place with my four legged partner in crime on Friday and were greeted very warmly by the staff! As we approached the bar they already had some fresh water ready for my woofer. The place seemed a bit deserted for a Friday evening so we got the best place by the fire. The Pale Ale tasted great, huge selection of crisps (no nuts though) and miss Chackie Brown was very happy, I think she will want to come again soon.

I was in the Star and Garter last night. I live in the area but hadn’t been before. I thought it was a nice venue but the service was appalling. My friend is recovering from a broken ankle and therefore asked to use the disabled toilet. She was refused by the brunette female bar tender who even said ‘you don’t look disabled’. This is just appalling, are we meant to carry round doctors certificates? After a heated conversation the blonde female bar tender finally gave in. We were both so angry at that point so we cancelled our drinks order and left. I suggest you train your staff to be aware of potential invisible disabilities as per the equalities act. I have lots of family and friends in the area and I will advise them not to go to this venue.

A hidden gem by the river! The place seemed very quiet so not surprised why they are not serving food. Friends had a meat platter but we had to head out to get something more than that to continue our pub crawl! The fire place was super cozy and the female bartender was very nice and attentive. A bit pricey but the experience was worth it.

Hosted 2 great parties there. Bar tenders always smiley, served little munches, and very welcoming. PERFECT!

Attended this beautiful venue last week and was amazed at how it looked but the excitement and anticipation of a great night ahead was soon quashed by the incredibly rude and sulky barman. He looked like a petulant child! There was only half the selection of beers available and no slimline tonic. Why bars insist on selling Fever Tree is beyond me - it's awful. Throughout the night I witnessed the same barman be rude to the other guests at the party, even shouting at 2 gentlemen - he even pushed his colleague out of the way! The food was poorly displayed and as a caterer, I know was of poor quality. Bowls of cocktail sausages with no sticks to use - can you imagine the germs after 180 had put their fingers in the bowl! No thanks! This would be a great venue if it was run professionally.

I had my birthday party last week and I would like to say thank you to all the staff, they were really nice. They were looking after of all my guest and me. Everything was perfect.

I strongly recommend you avoid this place until they change two of their male staff. Attended this venue for a 60th birthday. Arrived in the afternoon to help set up and the guy that was onsite (Salvador?) was a bit grumpy but I didn’t think much of it. Arrived back in the evening and his mood hadn’t improved. He snapped at guests, was rude to children, snatched money out of hands and was generally very unpleasant. He actually seemed to get annoyed whenever he was asked for drinks! The Guinness in the upstairs bar was disgusting, like dish water. It had either been sat in the pipes for weeks or the pipes had not been cleaned properly. When I complained he told me I had to go downstairs if to get another drink if I didn’t like it. Yet he still continued to sell drinks from the same pump and I had to intervene to stop others buying it. I did go downstairs and the barman there was just as rude. He pulled a pint but the barrel ran out before it was full. He refused to change the barrel to fill up the glass properly as apparently he wasn’t allowed to leave the bar. I asked for a different drink so that I could have a full pint and he refused to serve me anything else. Had to settle for a short measure. We’ve since had a number of other guests independently comment about how rude these two guys were. One of the guests actually left the party as he had been treated so badly but didn’t want to cause a scene. These two were a complete contrast to the ladies working there, they were everything you expect from good bar staff. I felt sorry for them. The party host has also now been charged 10% service charge on the bar tab! Shame as this is a lovely place and would be great with the right staff in place it.

I can honestly say I have bumped into a few bar staff with attitude in my long life, but never have I witnessed such a gathering in one location. The attitude of the staff can make or break a party, they decided to break our one. I won't be going back and I advise you don't unless you have too!

I was lucky enough to find this venue just a month before the date I needed it for, they were so helpful, accommodating and kept in contact with me leading up to my birthday night. I also found that they were extremely organised. I used the main bar for my party and the space was great it looked stunning and has so much potential. I had a lot of comments about how lovely the venue was. My 30th was a night that I will always remember thanks to this lovely venue and fantastic staff. I will most definitely use them again in the near future.

We have now celebrated a wedding, a 30th and many gin tasting evenings at The Star & Garter. We consider it to be our local. Great venue, food, staff and service.

Great view from a gorgeous bar. Staff were super friendly and welcoming. Great choice of beer and wines. Great visit.

This is a fantastic venue but just be careful if you book it for an event. I booked 3 months in advance, paid the deposit and was in email contact with the events planner. I was then called 8 days before to be told there was a problem with my booking - a technical issue with the computer system I have emails confining my deposit has been received and confirmation of my booking in September They tried to help arrange something else but I was suggested a restaurant and a number of places without availability ! Including a bar with a minimum spend of nearly £3,000 for a party of 30 ! I am now less than a week away from my party with guests having booked trains/hotels/babysitters and no venue. Just be careful, I wouldn’t want this to happen to anyone else ! Thank god it wasn’t a wedding ! I had to take a day off work, running around Putney with 2 kids in tow trying to organise a 40th I am incredibly disappointed

Popped in today for an aperol spritz but was shocked by what was made. I asked for 2 aperol spritz and as the barmaid was making it i noticed she only put 25ml of aperol and prosecco. I stopped her and said surely there should be more aperol and prosecco, she replied, "this is how we are told to make it". I asked how much this would cost and she said £8 each. She said "we could double it up, but it would cost double the price" at which point i said no we don't want the drink and left. I highly recommend that the management look at doing some drinks training for themselves and the staff. I am sure the aperol rep would be happy to help out. Because honestly they are either trying to rip people off or they don't know what they are doing.

Quick couple of Diet Colas here with a work colleague before, atypically and predictably, heading for Wimbledon Village. This is a nice pub and in an excellent location on the river. Nice atmosphere on a Friday. Staff very pleasant. My buffoon of a work colleague said his pint was pleasant, albeit, being called Connor MacLeod, all day, became tiring, due to my ability to escape dicey situations, fully intact.

Lovely pub. Very clean and great decor. Comfortable sofas, fabulous lager and gins to choose from. Really enjoyed it. Didn’t eat but the food looked lovely too.

Mi familia y yo visitamos el Star & Garter para un par de copas en mi cumpleaños. Reservamos una mesa y cuando llegamos teníamos una hermosa área reservada para todo nuestro grupo. Solo esperaba que reservaran una mesa, pero teníamos como un área elevada con una vista muy bonita del Támesis acordonado para nosotros. Fue mucho más de lo que esperábamos lo que fue realmente agradable! El bar en sí es muy moderno y fresco, con mucha iluminación y muy abierto. También tienen muchas ginebras, nunca he visto tantas en un solo lugar. El personal era encantador y se volcó para hacernos felices y sentirnos bienvenidos. El hombre detrás de la barra, Salva, era muy hablador y sabía mucho sobre todos los productos detrás de la barra. En general, pasamos un tiempo maravilloso y definitivamente regresaremos en el futuro. ¡Gracias chicos!

Mi sobrina reservó este lugar para una celebración previa a la boda para ella, nuestra familia y amigos de la ciudad. Ella tenía correos electrónicos de confirmación. Y cuando llegamos no teníamos cocinera disponible. Tuvo que pedir pescado y papas fritas para la entrega del chippy local. . . Absolutamente vergonzoso. Muchos de sus familiares y amigos eran vegetarianos, incluida mi sobrina la novia. ¡Se suponía que debía haber una preparación de tablas de quesos vegetarianas y no había nada! !

Reservé el Star and Garter después de una recomendación de mi amigo la noche anterior a mi boda. Tuve un montón de gente viniendo incluyendo a mi abuela.

Sólo quería cantar las alabanzas tan alta de la S&G.; Tuve mi fiesta de cumpleaños número 40 en el magnífico salón de baile la semana pasada y fue absolutamente brillante. Tuve muchos comentarios maravillosos sobre el lugar, el personal y la comida, que fue increíble. Gracias a Abu y a todos los que hicieron una noche tan increíble. Realmente no puedo pensar en un mejor espacio privado en el que he estado. Quiero hacerlo de nuevo!

We went with a group of 24 people to celebrate New Year's Eve. Packed place. They had just some burger options, but bar was very well stocked. Had a great time with friends there

Tuvimos nuestra boda en el Star & Garter en agosto y tuvimos el mejor día de nuestras vidas. El lugar se encuentra en un entorno maravilloso a lo largo del Támesis y el salón de baile está bellamente decorado con techos altos y ventanas que permiten que la luz inunde la habitación. La comida era excelente y el lugar tiene una gran selección de bebidas disponibles, especialmente la ginebra en la que se especializa.

En nuestro reciente viaje a Londres la semana pasada, afortunadamente estuvimos cerca de este fantástico restaurante / bar. Es cierto que no comí allí porque estaba disfrutando del bar que sirve las diferentes (50 +) gins. Y para un novato como yo, fue genial tener a Jordan detrás de la barra explicando pacientemente las ginebras, los pares de tónicos y la guarnición adecuada. Fue genial hablar de la historia de algunos de los gins. Los que me recomendó en ginebra y tónica fueron increíblemente fantásticos. Disfruté completamente de este caballero, Jordan, y de su personalidad y conocimiento. Fue asistido por Ben, que era igual de talentoso y profesional. Ojalá estuviera allí ahora! Daniel -

Friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere, lovely location close to the river! Not your average chain pub, lovely management. Check out their Gin Club initiative!

Popped in for a quick early evening drink - and to enjoy the long European summer evenings. The service was excellent - Max behind the bar was friendly, helpful and efficient. The views were great and the beer nice and cold; my wife and I will definitely be back again.

Fuimos a estrellas y garter la semana y conocí un montón de personal encantador, amable, Brian, el director nos mostró las funciones de espacios que son las habitaciones más bonitas que te puedas imaginar. Estábamos a preguntar en esta etapa y todos fueron tan amantes de reservado, que se sentía genial. Tenía unos fantásticos cócteles que eran energéticamente por el río. El bar parece genial y sombreros de a todo lo que es un lugar impresionante y las botellas de gin con flores en las mesas lo que un toque de clase que aparentemente tienen docenas de ginebras! ! ! Volveremos la próxima semana Festival Gin! ! ! Y una boda en 2019

Me tomó un amigo que acababa de llegar de Londres.

There is simply nowhere else to watch the annual Oxford v Cambridge boat race!

Alquilé la estrella de baile para mi y Garter 60 fiesta de cumpleaños. Dora la gerente me ayudaron a planificar los eventos entorno conmigo y en la noche, pasamos un tiempo fantástico, junto con mis clientes. El Baile era magnífica. El personal era muy servicial y la comida era excelente. Los huéspedes elogiaron el lugar. Todo funcionaba bien para hacer una magnífica ocasión.

The ballroom is beautiful for a party. Great canapes & platters. Expensive but worth it. Highly Recommended!!

Fuimos a la boda de unos amigos. A la mañana siguiente fuimos para el desayuno de la familia. Los desastres.

What a great venue! I was a guest for my friends wedding celebration, had an amazing time. The venue was great, staff was super friendly and accommodating specially Dora. Thank you!

Visited this pub and ordered fish in chilli sauce. I expected to have veg with potatoes but it arrived with 4to5 roasted peppers and cold tomatoes sliced around the plate.

Warm sunny day Ordered a lager and the special 5 French cheese meal Well presented on a piece of slate Buiscuits a slight on the stake side Overall very pleasant Just lacked atmosphere as no one else eating A large pub on the river

Bellissima location lungo il fiume con fermata boat Putney facilmente raggiungibile con bus 22 da Piccadilly Circus ..Al pianterreno ristorante ma io sono andata al primo piano per importante evento di zumba che si svolge ogni anno il primo weekend del mese di luglio.. ma anche altri eventi Maloca tutto l'anno..la prossima volta mi fermerò anche a cena.

Muchas gracias a el organizador del evento, Dora y el personal en el Star & Garter para un servicio fantástico en la boda de trish de mi hija el último sábado de junio la 3ª. El servicio de comida y el personal profesional increíble y...

Tuvimos 112 personas para bebidas de llegada y comida de tres platos con un DJ. El lugar era precioso, el personal es amable y la comida muy buena. Los chefs nos ayudó con última hora extras. Lugar perfecto para gran reunión. Ambiente íntimo y no...

Gran baile, juego encantador con vistas al Támesis en Putney. Espacio suficiente para c. 80 personas. La comida era buena, las bebidas a un precio razonable. Lo recomiendo encarecidamente.

If you like gin then visit this pub they have so many to choose from. The staff are friendly and the pub has a great atmosphere, would highly recommend especially if the weather is good to sit outside.

We held a celebration for Ghana's 60th Independence in the ballroom, and it was absolutely fantastic. Dora and Courtney helped a great deal with the initial stages of organising the event there and tended to all our queries, and the managers who assisted us on the night were excellent! All in all, a fantastic experience!

I had my 30th birthday here and had a great time! The staff were brilliant, In the run up to and including on the day itself. The venue was lovely, the perfect size! And the food platters we ordered were delicious! Altogether a brilliant choice!

Had a great event in the beautiful ballroom upstairs! All the guests were super impressed.The team was reliable, responsive and friendly; food presentation was superb and of course, it was delicious too. It's the perfect spot by the river for drinks, Sunday roast and private parties in Putney. We'll definitely come back!

Came with my friends to grab some drinks after work when we realised they have 2-4-1 gin offer. I spoke to a member of staff and they mentioned they just launched the Putney Gin club - I signed up straight! Had some sharing platters of meat and cheese with gin and tonics. Great experience, staff was very friendly and will be back for more gin just as a founding member!

Went to meet friends mid week after work , bar staff were very friendly and welcoming, beer was good , food was excellent , very smart surroundings .overall an excellent experience.

We held a party in the ballroom of the Star & Garter to celebrate our recent marriage and it proved to be the perfect party venue. The ballroom looked stunning and had been thoughtfully arranged with some high tables to make it easy for our guests to enjoy drinks and canapés (not always an easy combo). The staff were brilliant, both behind the bar and serving drinks/food. We would definitely recommend the ballroom for any sort of party of around 100 people as there's plenty of space for drinks, food and dancing. An absolute gem in south west London.

We used the Star & Garter ballroom for my daughter's 7th birthday. Not a very obvious choice for a child's birthday party - but it turned out beautifully. As our daughter is January born, we always have a challenge finding a suitable indoors venue. The Ballroom is big enough for 20 energetic children to run around, and enjoy all the party games they want. We were pleasantly pleased to discover that the in-house media system came free of cost, and so could also have an impromptu disco once the party games were done. The staff was very courteous, and at hand for everything that we wanted. I wouldn't hesitate to reccomend

Had my phone stolen here on New Year's Eve - not funny and made worse by hostile attitude of staff - the manager Kamel Buriande couldn't have cared less. Left bad taste in mouth, won't go again.

My daughter used this venue for a wedding celebration after she got married in Dubai. The venue is stunning and the staff were very accommodating and courteous. I would have no hesitation in recommending this venue for an event to cater for about one hundred guests comfortably.Again many thanks to everyone at the Star and Garter!!!

What a wonderful venue! The room looked really lovely on the night and the size of the ballroom perfectly fit our 100 person wedding party. Most importantly, all staff members were helpful and accommodating throughout our interactions with them; Dora was attentive to all emails and requests before the event, during the night Karel was very hands-on and preempted situations like an experienced professional and all other bar staff and servers were efficient, friendly and hardworking. Though we didn't order a full sit down meal, the canapés, sharing platters and cheese tower which we ate were all delicious. I would highly recommended the Star and Garter as a venue and would have no hesitation using them again.

I visited today with a friend having not been to this pub for over 20 years. It's a great venue and location but was disappointed that it now caters for functions and parties and does not do lunches other than fine cheeses and homemade scotch eggs which looked delicious. Staff were extremely friendly and inviting.

We attended the wedding of the daughter of our closest friends here and had a wonderful day. We had a reserved area of the bar for our arrival, pre ceremony, this was warm, open fire and very welcoming. The ceremony itself was upstairs in the gorgeous hall, following which we went back downstairs to the bar for drinks and canapés, whilst the hall was reset for the wedding breakfast. Canapés were lovely, especially the chorizo and halloumi, which was warm and spicy. We went back upstairs for the reception and the food was delicious, salmon to start followed by rack of lamb and then sticky toffee pudding, the courses were interspersed with speeches which was just as well as the portions were pleantiful and the interlude between was welcomed. The lamb was cooked perfectly, which for mass catering was impressive.The seating for those tables near the dance floor was a little difficult being as you were on uneven flooring. More servers would have meant less delay and enabled people to eat at the same time, however staff were very friendly and helpful.The venue is right next to the river so there wee plenty of photo opportunities. There was a good sized dance floor, which had a good spring to it and a stage for the band.All in all an excellent wedding venue.

We hired the first floor Ballroom for our Silver Wedding celebration. From beginning to end, nothing was too much trouble for any of the Star and Garter staff. The events manager guided us every step of the way to plan the event as we wanted it, but with many helpful suggestions. The room looked beautiful on the night; the food was delicious, and all the staff made us feel so special. We have received many, many compliments on our party, and the venue played a large part in this! Thank you.

Went with a friend on a Friday evening. Not crowded, great atmosphere, amazing views of the Thames and not your typical pub menu. We shared one of the great mezza selection with wasabi peas, sun dried tomatoes, stuffed leaves and olives followed by a sausage roll and an amazing scotch egg. Wonderful wine list, friendly staff and fair prices for the quality. Will certainly be back for more.

Great bar staff and reasonable food - there was so much of it we had to take some home. The bar staff/door staff were fantastic; nothing was too much trouble - even changing their music to seventies stuff on request. However, the "DJ" was a different matter! Surly, difficult and hard work. We were having a celebration FFS! cheer up! of course we were going to have 'requests' as the music was to reflect the 70s! she had her own agenda and whilst she did put on some great 70s music it was apparently all a bit too much..... and call me old fashioned ;-) but does an iPhone and a laptop constitute a DJ these days!? Then I'm changing my job...Thanks overall though xxxxx

Thanks to the whole team at the star and garter who made our party in the ballroom so memorable. The room is perfect for a big drinks party and we and our guests had a brilliant time. They made the whole thing super-easy to organise and the staff on the night could not have been more helpful. Thanks again!

We hired the beautiful ball room at the Star & Garter to host a black tie fundraiser and it was the perfect location for it. The room looked absolutely stunning and all our guests commented on how great the room looked. The staff were all super helpful and smiley and accommodated all of our weird and wonderful requests! I would definitely recommend booking this space for a party.

I attended a Wedding Reception in the ballroom and I was impressed. The ballroom is a great space and good place for dancing! For me, the toilets are key and these are just behind the bar. The bar was well staffed and they were efficient.The only thing that I would have them improve as the air con. It was rude hot I there but it was ok to pop outside. Nice!

First floor dining room with large bar and dancefloor and stage. Did not know what to expect. unusual but highly-successful format. Tables for seating/eating, live music then the first round of food arrived - platters of all sorts of good things, including first-class chips, chicken satay skewers, fishcakes, little glazed sausages. Service was very good and attentive. Dancing, lovely speech then more food, this time little bowls of outstanding lamb and vegetables, a chicken dish, some other thing (oh, and some veggie curry). My lamb was simply superb. Great atmosphere.Just guessing on "value" I was a lucky guest.

Right on the banks of the River Thames, with Putney Pier and its river-boats a couple of steps away. Great views from the elevated bar and dining areas. Looked like a great range of cheeses on display. We didn't dine so cannot comment on the food, but the two Antipodean girls behind the bar were most friendly.

We have been here multiple times for work do's and this time we had the upstairs private room which is beautiful and would also be perfect for weddings. We had a great time and the staff are really good here.

If you like Cheese, Biscuits, Chutney, Cured Meats and all things delicious, this pub is a must. A bit quiet for lunch during the week and service is slow because they only have one poor member of staff running the bar and preparing the food. There is a cold room in the pub which houses an amazing selection of cheese and meats, all perfectly kept.The wait is worth it tho as the mixed boards are top notch.Have yet to try it at the weekend or evenings, but from my past lunch time visits would totally recommend!

We went to the star and garter for a wine and cheese tasting session after our team away day. It was absolutely fantastic! Karel was our host and he was brilliant - really knowledgeable about the wines and generally a really nice guy. We didn't feel rushed at all, he let us enjoy the wines and the cheeses at our own pace. Such a great evening, thanks Karel!

We tied the knot in July and stumbled across The Star and Garter as a possible wedding venue online. We had a meeting with Paloma the wedding planner and told her our budget, and she couldn't have been more accommodating. The whole team worked to our requirements, the tasting was wonderful, and the day itself was just magical. Paloma and her team set up the ballroom perfectly. It looked amazing! The team also worked closely with our DJ to help him get set up. The whole day went without a hitch; the food was delicious, service speedy and friendly, views over the Thames breathtaking, and the bar staff helped us party into the wee hours. Such a blast! Everyone commented on what a perfect venue we had. Would recommend to anyone.

Went for a walk yesterday afternoon and on the way back to Barnes we stopped at this pub. Lovely! If you're lucky you can sit next to the window and look at the river. Friendly staff, price of drinks is reasonable. Perfect place for a date. Definitely will go back!

Had my wedding here it was amazing couldn't of asked for better, pam was amazing helped me loads always contacting me if wasn't sure and me the same. Food was really good everyone loved it had no complaints. Love it there will be going back again for food and drinks . Thank you to everyone there who made my day.

We had our wedding breakfast at the Ballroom. The venue and the location is perfect. The food and drinks were both good and affordable. The staff was really helpful and service minded. I really like that you could customize the whole night even though you hadde chosen one of the standardized wedding packages. Only drawback is that the venue closed at 1. Wish it had been possible to keep it up a couple of more hours.

We got married 9thJuly1966 at All Saints Church near Putney Bridge, and had our wedding reception at the Star And Garter Putney, so after 50 years we thought we would replicate it. The Star And Garter let us down big time .we booked our small reception 6 months before and gave them menu choices 2 months before, then I was e-mailed barely 2 weeks ago with the excuse they can not give us so many choices because the chef said so, with some pathetic excuses ,lucky enough we found somewhere else at short notice ,don't let it happen to you.Dave

We hired The Ballroom for around 65 guests for an evening party. From the minute we looked round right through to the end of our party the staff were extremely helpful. Paloma the events coordinator replied quickly to many queries I had. The bar staff on the night were brilliant. Nothing seemed like too much trouble. They helped me put out decorations, packed up all my little candles at the end of the night, helped me carry present to the car and all whilst keeping our guest served with drinks. We had bacon sarnies served later in the evening which were very yummy!We had an amazing night in a really lovely venue. Thank you Star and Garter, you have fabulous staff, I will be recommending you to my friends!

We recently had an event at The Ballroom at Star & Garter. It was absolutely amazing! It was our first experience with Star & Garter and we are very satisfied. The service was outstanding. The food was delicious and served hot even though we were many. They delivered everything we asked for, down to every detail, and all of staff were very welcoming and helpful. The venue is gorgeous with a very nice views over the Thames. Everyone at the party was impressed by The Ballroom. We will be returning next year.

Nice large sized riverside bar which serves food as well. Good atmosphere, plenty of varied seating areas. Funny staff, who could do well to ensure order instructions are accurate. I ordered a sausage roll with salad dressings and cider with a separate pint of tap water, but was advised that they were out of sausage and that there were only chicken rolls available on the menu, I settled for a chicken roll, but when my order arrived I bit into a sausage roll - confusing or what.Anyway other than that the bar is a good location to enjoy the Putney Bridge area and the atmosphere Cancer Research Boat Race 2016, which I attended.

I love coming to this place, came today with a group of friends for the Bottomless Brunch.Had such a nice time relaxing by the river watching the Head of the River and enjoying unlimited Bellini's. The food was great and the staff very professional and friendly. Quite tempted to come along to the next one on the 19th haha.

Recently attended a meeting event at Star and Garter, hosted in a small private glass dining room. There were only 6-7 of us but the space was good and AV was provided. Venue is modern and well laid out, food and refreshments were good with staff attentive and very customer focused at all times.What particularly struck me was the view... Wow! Directly onto the river. The big talking point at lunch was how amazing his place must be on boat race day ...think we'll definitely be back socially at this time.Only thing I did t get to try was a charcuterie and cheese board ... This is something they are famous for! Definitely next time.

We booked a section on a friday night to have as a stop on a Pub crawl. The staff were very accommodating and put up with many groups coming and going. WE also set fun task at the pub and the staff were very cool and chilled about us being a little loud.Thanks so much for a great night !

Came here for my fathers wedding. Brilliant room. Delicious food. Great bar and restaurant. I really recommend this place.

We had a nice and tasty food while enjoying a lovely bottle of Rioja Reserva The staff was friendly and attentive.The venue is so pretty!!

We attended a wedding here which was quite fun! The drinks were excellent (got to love a good Pimm's Cup!) and the food was very good for the event. Nice views of the river and the Putney Bridge and there is a small area downstairs where you can sit outside.

This place is always dead unless here's some kind of event going on by the river. They have a great selection of cheese boards and wine though, and you're guaranteed to get a table as there's very few other people there. Today when we visited, the service was pretty shocking. We ordered a cheeseboard and wine and when the wine arrived, it was just plonked on the table so we poured it ourselves. It took forever for the cheeseboard to arrive too...although the place was virtually empty. We didn't pay the service charge, as there was little in the way of service!

Oh dear, this was such a disappointment. This pub has lost all its heart & soul and is trying to be something it isn't. And it certainly is no longer decent.

I live 1.2 km from this placeExpensive for what it isSlightly snooty staffAverage foodBrilliant wineOnly go when dragged there

I was at the Star and Garter Saturday night with a group of friends, the atmosphere was great and the bartenders very friendly. They recommended the Espresso Martini which was a huge hit with all my female friends.The DJ was also good and taking requests, we danced all night!I will definitely recommend to friends and family

I was taken to the Star and Garter by my partner. We had booked in but when we arrived there were only 3 other customers in the building, none of who were eating. The bar/restaurant area seemed quite clean but being empty had zero atmosphere. The place was decorated with empty bottles of champagne and did have a Whetherspons feel to it. We ordered Sunday lunch, one salmon one beef. It was possibly the most dreadful Sunday roast I have had in a long time. Flavourless, cheap, tasted microwaved. To make things worse it cost us £15 each. We quickly ate our meals and left. We were going to stay for the cheese but whole experience made us want to leave as quickly as possible.

I went for a tea with friends and we like the venue very much. The services was OK. It's a perfect venue for a cold winter afternoon.

This restaurant/bar was recommended, so I rallied my colleagues and off we went to the Star and Garter! I should have known when we arrived and only two small groups were there just having a drinks! All other restaurant tables were empty at 7.30pm!We booked well in advance and the table was ready when we arrived. It all looked promising when we arrived. The waitress was polite and we placed our orders! After waiting for over an hour for our meal, we all were annoyed and hungry. Two separate waiters came to ask if we were ok and when we said it was taking too long for our meal, the waiter made a sarcastic remark about catching the fish and getting it ready! I was not amused. At no point did any of the waiters apologize for the slow service! To their credit they did offer a bottle of wine as we complained twice about the long wait. But, never again. The food was mediocre and definitely not worth the wait! The company made the difference!

I have been to Star and Garter a few times over the last few years and I'd noted things had gone a bit downhill. However, a recent trip at the weekend and all seems firmly in the past.The staff are all friendly and knowledgable, with nothing seeming too much effort. The place seems a lot fresher than before and a lot cleaner.They do a great Sunday roast, I had the beef which was cooked perfectly and the waitress was charming.Good wine list, although could do with a few more additions.We opted for the Barossa Shiraz which you don't always see on a list these days.Then there's the cheese room, lovely selection from across Europe, must be tried!This place certainly seems to have turned a corner based on some previous reviews, keep up the good work, we're sure to return very soon.

It is a nice little place which is nicely set away from the high street just enough. Nice little beer garden and they do good grub and nice g&t's. Almost caters for all!

Called in for the 2 for 1 G and T Friday evening.Had a Monkey and a Raj.Both enjoyable.Did not eat this time but have had the meat and cheese platters previously.Always find this place enjoyable with it's great view of the Thames.

This is the place to go for a posh G&T. The trouble is they don't really serve anything else. The Monkey 47 served with plum is the best on the menu, but a treat at £9. The interior is trendy wine bar, but I'm more at home at the cosy Half Moon down the road. It lacks atmosphere as it's often quiet, while on a sunny day, the Duke's Head next door will be spilling on to the river.

I've been going to Star & Garter since the 90's and It was a great pub back then. I haven't returned there for a long time until my last trip to the UK when I noticed it's not a popular place as it used to be. This last time I didn't try any food so I can't make a comment on that, but I really enjoyed going there after so many years. The location is perfect: opposite the River Thames and on summer you can have your pint on the outside enjoying the whole scenery. Bring your friends and spend a late afternoon there, you will understand what I mean!

Family dinner last Saturday, hard to recommend much about this place ... it doesn't know what it wants to be. The menu is disjointed, they have a cheese and ham cellar and everything they serve from this section of the menu is first-rate, I'd quibble whether a splodge of Branston pickle belonged on the Spanish board but overall, great jamon, chorizo and manchego. The rest of the menu is circa 1970 and my plaice goujons tasted like they'd been in the freezer since then. The main courses were very ordinary. The service is all over the place, main courses were brought in the midst of us eating our starters as they had a large booking in the venue upstairs ! Then, the music went on ... so loud we were all shouting to make ourselves heard. A few of the well-heeled locals started dancing around the bar which felt odd. The Star & Garter is like it's playlist, hardcore House music followed by Chas and Dave ... seriously !

I booked a table for 13.00hrs Easter Monday for 4 people on or about April 10th. Couldn't wait to show off a bit of 'my' neck of the woods to my friends. Two of which travelled from North London, and the other travelling in from Surrey. I arrived, no greeting, and there were only three guest in the place (plus 2 staff), one of which was one of my guest. I went up to the bar to ask where our table was. As the waiter showed me which table I could have (basically any one I wanted, the place was empty except for the 2 others), he said did the guy I spoke with when booking nearly 2 weeks ago tell me that the kitchen was closed on Monday!!!!!!I appreciate that it may close on Monday's, but I was furious!!!! Surely the guy who took the reservation realized it would be closed. Who ever deals with the bookings would have noticed that there was a lunch booking for Easter Monday, and as a courtesy ring me to say the kitchen would be closed. None of that happened, so I was left at the last minute to try and get a table for four on what turned out to be a very nice afternoon along the river.I still haven't received an apology from the pub, and as a result I certainly won't be going back there. There are far too many places that would like the business to go too than flog this dying horse. Yes, the cheese and wine rooms look impressive, but if staff don't know the opening and closing days of the establishment, it raises questions in my mind as to exactly what do they know?So my advice would be to double check any bookings, and challenge the staff. Don't assume they know what they are talking about.

A lazy Sunday stroll slong the Thames with a friend and we found this place. We were intrigued by the cheese room advertised outside & ventured in. A lovely warm welcome and great food. We couldn't decide on which cheeses to try and the knowledgeable staff member was so helpful - reality felt that he wanted us to really enjoy the experience. Nothing was too much trouble . The atmosphere was lovely - wish I lived closer & then I could visit a lot more often but will definitely return on next visit to London

Me and my partner decided to have a meal out here after seeing the very appetising menu on their website. We booked a table for two on a Friday night. We arrived, no one greeted us at the door and the place was empty. Really bad sign on a summers Friday night! We had to go to the bar and ask the bar staff (only one person serving) where to go. He pointed to our reserved table. This was the best thing of the whole night; our table! We had gorgeous summer evening views of the river Thames. A waitress came and asked if we wanted drinks. We had a gin and tonic each. We were never given a dinner menu until we asked, which was after our drinks. We would of asked earlier but no one was around. At this point I suggested to my partner we just pay for the drinks and go somewhere else (which is a first for me) he said let's give them another chance. He was very hungry! We finally got our menus. They were pretty empty. This menu wasn't the full, tantalising menu we saw on their website. I was convinced this was a mistake! There was about 4 items to choose from on each course; pretty dull options too. When the waitress finally came back I actually quizzed the menu and the response as to why the menu was so sparse was because they had cheese. LOL! Anyway, we ordered a starter each and a main course. At this point we still weren't asked what we wanted to drink or even seen the wine menu. Our starters came. We ate them. We were very hungry. We eventually had to flag down the waitress to ask for the wine menu. We finally managed to order a bottle of white wine, which arrived at our table already open and wasn't asked to taste. Our mains arrived. I had a generic chicken tomato thing and my partner had a steak, which was so over done. He asked for rare. I couldn't finish my main it was so bland. My partner forced to finish his. Like I said he was hungry. Eventually the plates were cleared and we managed to ask for the bill before the waitress disappeared again. The bill was pretty pricey for a terrible night out. We will never go to this place ever again.

I love the downstairs bar of this bar. Never eaten here but a chilled Pimms by the river from the basement bar is awesome after work. Been many times and will be back time and again.

I like this pub. It is a proper pub that sells a excellent selection of really fine Ales. Very rare these days. They don't even sell food. :) I highly recommend it

Just back from a long leisurely lunch in a small group (nine). The Star and Garter is a lovely venue. It is very easy to get to from either Putney station or Putney bridge tube, and beautifully located right by the river with a few tables outside. The decor inside is lovely. "shimmering" is the word that comes to mind. I'm giving the Star and Garter five stars for the following reasons. If you like cheese or charcuterie, or both, there is the most amazing cheese room in the bar. If you don't like it, be warned, you do get wafts of cheese smell! If you don't know what to choose, the waitress will put a little selection together for you. There was a good selection of food from sharing platters to full mains, lovely puddings. At out table we had baguette and a trio of dips, very good, the cheese platter, more than one person could eat, and it got the thumbs up from several others! We also hd crab linguini, apparently lovely, vegetarian risotto, chicken and butter beans. Puddings were very generous. There was a good choice of teas. We were well looked after but also left to chatter and take our time. The staff were friendly and helpful and the food costs reasonable.A great place to eat, drink or watch the boats go by.

Was here on Saturday 6th April from about 7pm. Great service (drinks only as we didn't eat)and atmosphere. DJ started later in the evenig and played some great tunes.

We held our London engagement party here a few weeks ago. The staff went out of their way to make it as stress free as possible - the management made sure food was all pre-ordered and it came out at the right time as per my request. We had a great area near the fireplace and the large windows overlooking the river with plenty of tables and chairs if you wanted to sit. The party platters had plenty of food for 6 people (each platter) and were reasonably priced. There is a great selection of wines from all over the world to suit any budget. We partied from 4pm until it closed and were very happy overall with the excellent level of service and the space we were assigned.

The food wasn't too bad - possibly a little salty but then again many restaurants are. The thing which promted me to write this review was just how bad the wine menu was for a pub which advertised an excellent wine menu. Every bottle I asked for was miss-sold. The ages of the bottles delivered were often only 1-2 years old when the menu suggested they should be 4-6 years old so for example The Chateauneuf-du-pape, Domain Mont Redon, 2006 was a 2010 bottle. This is such a rip off at £38 a bottle! This wasn't the only example - infact in about 5 bottles I had my eyes on they were all too young and the prices didn't match. WATCH OUT!

Had Sunday lunch there today. Tried to book the Duke's Head, but it was packed out, so came here instead. Mistake! Worryingly deserted at 1.30 on a Sunday afternoon. One member of staff was friendly, warm and welcoming. Nicely laid out bar with what looks like a cheese and cured meats room, so their sharing boards would be good.One of the bar staff was pumping the bitter pumps for the entire time we were there. Presumably flushing them out, but thought that would be done prior to opening.Three of us all ordered the Sunday roast; two went for lamb and one roast beef, at £13.95 and £14.95 respectively which we thought was pretty pricey even for the area. When the plates arrived, we were shocked. Couple of slices of meat, two roast potatoes, small Yorkshire pudding, few leaves of kale and a tiny serving of carrots and parsnips. It was like a kid's portion.We ate, paid up and left.First pub I've been to in ages where the roast wasn't a huge feast with a dish of veg on the side.Suggest you try the Duke's Head, the Coat and Badge or the Spotted Horse for a decent meal instead.

I visited this restaurant yesterday with some friends and it's the worst I've had in a long time and I'm not fussy at all! We had some beetroot and feta cheese salads, portions were a bit slack but it was tasty. Others had soup which wasn't very hot. Service was incredibly slow and we waited over an hour for our mains. Our waiter was running around the place and I think it must have been under staffed. We all ordered roast dinners, 6 of us. When they eventually came out, the bar man served them (not our waiter guy) and he just plonked dinners down on the table not asking anyone who was having what. they were not hot at all. We'd had enough by then as paying approx £14 for a roast dinner you expect better. We complained to our waiter and the dinners were taken back and they said they would be heated up....but when they came back out they were exactly the same!! I can't believe that anyone would re-serve such rubbish to good paying customers. At that stage we called for the manager, who could only apologise. He offered us a free round of drinks which we didn't avail of, we were quite hungry at that stage and decided to leave an eat elsewhere.To add insult to injury on the way out, our waiter stopped us and asked if we had paid for our wine. We had ordered and paid for it at the bar already. He could have checked this without asking us surely?! It just made me mad to be pulled up over it!!
