Cannot fault this hotel, comfortable clean room,excellent breakfast, great bar for drinks and dinner and the staff are helpful and friendly, nothing too much trouble, the only thing the room needs is the addition of a box of tissues, location ideal for what we wanted kew and hampton court which were both good days out , would stay again .

Vine con la familia y mis padres para el almuerzo del Día de las Madres. Nos dieron una mesa en la caja de cristal en la parte delantera, que tiene una hermosa vista con vistas al parque y el río. La comida, inicialmente pedimos el pollo asado, pero se habían agotado, así que pedimos el hombro de cordero compartido, que era increíble y masivo! Hicieron una caja para llevar a casa, ya que no pudimos terminarlo! Almuerzo realmente memorable y un gran servicio del hombre mayor y su equipo.

Was turnt away on mothers day after a had confirmed the booking it was a last minute booking but they sed they could fit us in at 3:45 the booking was confirmed also through Google to which i had confirmation and was told rudely they dnt have room there was 4 adults and 3 children all dressed up and there was space on the outside tables in a way it was a blessing in disguise as people who where leaveimg sed they had to wait for a hour and a half and the potatoes where hard and that the food and service was not good so we found somewhere near by to accommodate us i has heart broken at first seeing my mums face in shock and half of the restaurant staring in disbelief was so disappointed I wouldn't of been so bad if the man with curly hair had been a bit politer about the whole thing he was so so rude

This hotel/pub it was a nice random place that surprised us with a delicious burger and a nice kind of relaxing atmosphere. Kind of because it is by the main road, but relaxing because it was sunny, you can see Thames river over the road and enjoy a pint and some food. The staff was friendly, quite helpful, and polite even they were massively understaffed and they were running all over. The management should do their job better and not exploy their people, but ot might be the exception as it was a sunny day and lots of people joined us so this time I will not consider this in my review. We will update it if we return, and it will be a similar situation. Parking is available on the back of the hotel or on the side streets, but with limited access.

We arrived early for our Mothers Day booking, the manager was very helpful and accommodating, he said that he was able to move our table to an earlier arrival which was appreciated. We sat in the front glass area and had such lovely food and service. My mother said it was the best roast beef she had had in a pub. Thank you for making our mothers Day such a special occasion.

Didn't appreciate being told we have to vacate table after 1.5 hours when this wasn't the case at all, especially as it was a Mother's Day lunch and we were in no hurry - the booking showed 2 hours which in itself is rather arrogant considering this is a pub. Suggest you focus on making your customers welcome rather than purely maximising profits. Food was good and manager was accommodating when I raised my concerns over the ticking clock however.

Another excellent Friday post-work trip to the Pope for food and drinks yesterday with colleagues. The chips here are truly the best! Special thanks to Alfie for going above and beyond with his service to ensure that we had a lovely evening - turning down the music a bit for one of the group who had an oncoming migraine, and ensuring our drinks were just they way we wanted them. It ensured a happy start to the weekend! Thank you!

This was a visit for lunch with friends, prior to a 6 Nations fixture at Allianz Twickenham. As usual, Robin and his team were fabulous hosts. The food was excellent and the staff, waiting at table, were attentive and personable. The after-match ambience changed from restaurant to pub-lounge, with an excellent duo playing and singing live. An excellent day out, all round.

My partner & I had a great meal here!! The food was sublime; one of the best Sunday roasts I’ve had at a pub ever! The thing that made this visit so awesome, was that they didn’t have veggie gravy (the other gravy was beef & we don’t eat beef), so the manager went & got some veggie gravy for us, which was a great way to solve the situation for us & definitely means that we’ll be going back again in the future!

Between us we had every dish on the menu and all of it was excellent. The staff were incredibly busy but they were polite, helpful and hardworking. I have to single out Jodie though, for special praise. Unparalleled excellence in service and customer care, always with a huge smile, thank you Jodie.

I saw a previous review about feeling unwanted in a place and that’s exactly how we felt dining here as well. My mother wanted to try the place and so I took her here only to be met with disappointment. To paint a picture, we walk in the restaurant and waited to be seated. There were 2 people on the bar and the customers had already been served, the boy was polishing glasses and the other girl, who knows what she was doing. There was also another male server clearing a table, all 3, pretended we didn’t exist. We may not have been dressed like we were ought to meet the King but honestly, in this day and age to still have this kind of judgement from the staff to a paying customer is laughable. Realising, we weren’t going to be seated. I asked the staff on the bar if we can sit anywhere and she said yes. We sat ourselves down and I still had to ask for menus myself! I noticed how the rest of the people who walk in were treated and it was completely different to us. When the food came, it was presented well. However it was mediocre for the price. Perhaps our judgement and tastebud has been soured from the initial experience. Customers come in to not only eat the food but to enjoy the ambiance and the service. One thing I’ll say though is Talulah, our server, was pleasant which salvaged the number of stars a little bit but the rest was just inadequate and incompetent. I’m just glad they’re smart enough not to charge us service for they know themselves how absurd their service was. Definitely not coming back. I just felt sorry for my mum who was really eager to try this place out.

Tried Sunday roast, chicken was cooked beautifully but the rest of the trimmings spoiled the dish. 2 soggy potatoes, few cold hispi Cabbage leaves, mushy carrots and the worst gravy I've ever tasted 😫 we ordered more Cabbage and chips because we were still hungry. Cabbage was very tiny portion and chios never arrived. We ordered lemon posset but really it was just whipped cream with the hint of lemon. Disappointed 😞 We also had our retriever with us and nobody even offered to bring some water for him.

I have never felt unwanted in any place in London before coming here. My child is attending a nearby course, so I wait for him at this location for over an hour on a couple of occasions. The staff were rude and displayed racist behavior. Additionally, I was overcharged and compelled to pay a service charge for the food and drinks, despite having to carry them around the restaurant myself. The staff, particularly the older man who served me, made it abundantly clear that I was unwelcome there!

Paramos para almorzar tarde en un glorioso día soleado después de visitar el WWT London Wetland Centre justo al final de la carretera. El menú Prix Fixe era perfecto para la ocasión. Disfrutamos de dos entrantes diferentes y dos principales, todos llenos de sabor. Decentemente mantenido Fullers ale también. Recomendado minuciosamente ( y si te gustan las aves tiene grandes dibujos alrededor de las paredes también ! ).
