The Kingfisher in Spelthorne - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Food was good, plenty of staff around so no long waiting times.

Welcoming atmosphere and good car parking

I go to the Kingfisher probably once per year only because we don't live super close and every time I go, I think "I need to come here more often". Today was no different. All staff were welcoming and smiling. Food was delicious. Drinks choice was great. Venue is clean & welcoming. Toilets are clean. I really couldn't fault it. So nice to go somewhere faultless! Well done Kingfisher team and look forward to seeing you again soon.

Lovely food and great location right on the river by the Chertsey Lock.

Surly disinterested staff. Nice coffee

Always a pleasure coming hear, naughty but chips are excellent, just need a few more.

Comfortable lovely environment Bit pricey. Service is wonderful. Only got a 4* overall as we were sitting between the kitchen and the bathroom entrance, so it was extremely busy and chilly with the staff wizzing by. If we were anywhere else, im fairly certain it would have been a 5

Great atmosphere and fantastic service

Fantastic service, food nicely presented and a brilliant selection of top end wines. Highly recommended to anyone passing or for company meals out.

Awesome Pub and restaurant. Just a bit pricey on the drinks 🍸.

Had a lovely roast dinner here. Would definitely recommend the duo of beef. Was served by Harriet who was really friendly, attentive and quick to serve us with our multiple requests for additional gravy 😂. Really nice place and great staff. Will be back again.

Typical English pub, where we ate really well. The plates were quality.

I've been to the Kingfisher a number of times in the past, but my visit yesterday was really disappointing. Our waitress was sullen and unfriendly, 3 of the dishes we chose had sold out, and when the food arrived the presentation was poor and portion sizes were stingy. I'm hoping this was just a blip, as I've always been impressed in the past.

Lovely Sunday roast today, brilliant service from Anaiya, great pub!

Nice place by the river. Staff were slow. £6.50 for a pint is ridiculous hence the low rating. Didn't eat the food so can't give a rating.

We hadn't booked and fancied a birthday dinner locally. We were able to get a table at 8pm on a warm Friday night in August. The food and cocktails were delicious, the atmosphere really nice and server was do lovely. We really enjoyed our visit and won't hesitate to recommend and visit again! We were really looked after by our friendly waitress Anaiya who was genuine, friendly and helpful. I had steak and my husband had fish and chips. The portions were generous and really tasty. The chocolate bomb dessert was fabulous! The only thing I would change is if I was to visit with my 78 year old Mum which I hope to do in September, is to turn the music down slightly.

really lovely food. Alice was our waitress really friendly and always checking and taking care of our needs. highly recommend

Bad given menu but not told what was off menu until went to order first choice not available second would take approximately 25 minutes when other diners dished about 10 so no option but to go for salad unable to identify most of what was in it asa mush at bottom of plate When it came to dessert mini one was half portion on what looked like original dish and could not guarantee decaf coffee would not have traces of caffeine in as made in same machine Very disappointing especially as a birthday meal and pub chosen on recommendation I would not recommend

I visited with my wife, lovely place. Molly, our waitress, was very attentive and served us perfectly. Chicken burger was delicious, and a great selection of beers.

Cate was the most helpful, friendly waitress that served us. The food was fantastic and we really enjoyed our evening. 5 star all round

Good food and great service from Cate

We had a lovely work meal out. Cate was our server and she was very attentive and made some great recommendations on the food. We will be back ☺️

Food was enjoyable... staff were attentive and polite..

We booked a couple of hours in advance online, when we arrived the host said she didn’t have the staff to accommodate us, it’s been a really busy day and she’d like to go home so please be as quick as we can, she said we could sit outside but we’d have to pull tables together ourselves, starters were brought over we then had to get our own cutlery which was empty, the food was mediocre and overpriced, I’ve eaten better chicken burgers from a supermarket and they were very over done and dark, it’s a lovely pub and the atmosphere is great, but management doesn’t seem to be, it was one of the warmest days of the year, the pub was quite lively when we arrived and there was no labour to be able to serve us? Poor planning. We’ve never felt so unwelcome upon arriving for a meal out, especially a meal out celebrating a friend’s birthday. Disappointed is an understatement.

Me and my wife came to your establishment for a nice meal on route home and was amazing as always and staff were awesome keep up good work all of you

had a fantastic meal, really good portion sizes and good value for money. would definatley come again when in the area. wish we came earlier in the week to have the wine and dine menu

Good value food, service excellent, lovely ambience

I was very disappointed with my visit. There is no service, you order ourself. Food was so small, I had steak sendwitch, I could barely seen meat. The smallest piece I have ever seen. I seen this place always so busy, but I will not bother to come back. You have 2 of those squares, bread is massive, but nothing in there. This wasent just good.

Excellent pub in great location. Good food. Nice environment. Harriet served us and was super

dinner was insanely good, I had the chicken burger and it was delicious amazing service, food came out quick enough great location, very cozy inside

Nice food and friendly, helpful staff.

Lovely meal on the river. Great choice on the menu and a lovely atmosphere. Would definitely recommend and we will be back soon!

There's a lot of parking space, lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and although it's busy, the service isn't bad. I highly recommend the Lamb menu. The pork belly menu is not recommended.

Anaiya and Harriet!! Great service and a smiley face nice atmosphere she created. Would come again !!!

Came in with my friends, Harriet at the bar was so lovely and helpful

Lovely pub on the river. Food was excellent and came out quickly. Staff very friendly and the bar maid Harriet makes tasty cocktails. We will be back

Had a dinner with my friend. Food was excellent. Service was immaculate. Nice climatic music in the background. Our waitress Ella was helpful and attentive. Thank you. I will come back here many times.

Had a lovely meal here. Steaks were well cooked and great service

Absolutely wonderful pub , our second visit. Great service, all staff so efficient and friendly and absolutely delicious roasts …..the gravy 😋…..oh also had the trio dessert which was amazing!

When I say 11/10 I mean it, the pork belly with scallops was amazing, words can’t describe how great it was. Highly recommend to everyone.

Visited last week with my uncle who was over from America, food was fabulous & the service was unmatched, Ella with the long red hair was Amazing, nothing was too much and was always checking we were okay and checking if we needed anything, he had a lovely time visiting from the US.

Lovely food and cocktails. Harriet our waitress was very professional and worked hard to keep us happy. We will be back

Excellent menu. Food very tasty and staff helpful and professional

We stopped here for a meal prior to me being dropped off at Heathrow airport, for which its riverside location is perfect. The pub is beautifully decorated and the staff were warm and happy to assist with questions about the menu. All the dishes we ordered were very tasty, delivered hot and in good time. We will certainly be visiting again.

Great food,good choice of beers. A little slow on service, but food was cooked fresh. Would be 4 stars for service but was left waiting for drinks whilst eating

Visited the restaurant on the 17/07 as my early birthday treat. Did not feel welcome, there was no wow factor in anything especially when you are charging so much. It was very quiet one other table other than us and 2/3 drinkers outside. It took 10/15 mins for someone to come over and ask if we wanted any drinks, the drinks took a while to arrive. I had to find someone to order food as my 15 month old baby was getting frustrated. I have ordered from the lunch menu I had the squid and steak sandwich, my partner had sticky chicken and linguine, my son had sausage and mash. the squid was chewy the chicken my partner has was nice but nothing special for the asking price. My steak in the sandwich did not taste or smell fresh, it was sour and you could tell i could tell it was spoiled. I have been a head chef for 12 years. There was no one around to speak to about this matter my son didn’t want to eat his food neither. My partner’s linguine did smell too fishy and the prawns did look raw. After we got up and we’re about to leave a lady walked past us my partner got get attention and asked for the bill which came up to just under £100. When we left there were staff members standing and talking amongst themselves when we said thank you goodbye we got ignored. This was a very unpleasant experience. I have spent all my night in the toilet. My sons belly is not looking too good either and now my partner stated his stomach is turning and hurting. I am so disappointed as it was my birthday treat and spending £100 for a meal out for a small family where there is only one provider it is a lot only to end up regretting it so much. We have heard all good reviews about the place so I thought I would choose it however I am really paying for it today.

A bit slow starting to even get water, on hottest day of year. Drinks arrived before water.

Pub is nice enough. We stopped for a drink so can't comment on food, but what we saw looked good. Service not 1st class, we sat with previous customers empty coffee cups on our table for a few hours. But that wouldn't stop us using the Kingfisher

Wow what a change! Great effort guys.

Fantastic delicious meal. Service was exemplary. Mia the waitress was excellent she constantly made sure we had everything we needed with a lovely smile and very friendly disposition.

5* Service from Denis and Alice

Great atmosphere with excellent food and outstanding service

We had my birthday with family on 28th June at the Kingfisher . Harry and his team were so attentive and provided a great choice of food . Nothing was too difficult with the service . The quality of food was excellent and we had a great view looking towards the river . A great birthday treat .

Harry served us food and drinks made us giggle, Harry was amazing will defo return just because of Harry best evening out ever !!! Go Harry 🥂

I had an amazing Sunday lunch at the Kingfisher with some friends and my little boy. They accommodated my son’s allergies very easily and all our food was delicious. The service was friendly and efficient! We’ll be back again soon for sure.

Not great food or value for money

Great menu, generous portions, friendly efficient service. Only 'negative' was our table was somewhat gloomy due to being in the corner away from natural or artificial light

Couldn’t fault the service were prompt and polite food was out of this world

Great Roast Dinner on Fathers Day. Service by Molly and Luca was great. All of the food was perfectly presented. Nothing was too much trouble.

Came here for an evening meal with my partner the food was absolutely beautiful and cooked to perfection and the team were lovely and friendly . Sat outside with a lovely view of the river Thames. Cannot recommend highly enough . Would definitely return . Recommend the baked camembert as a sharing starter it was top notch the fresh dough twists were lovely and the plum ketchup was fantastic . The pork and scallops were brilliant and the chicken was outstanding. Thanks guys for a brilliant meal.

Having previously last visited in 2020 upon return to the area I made sure to visit again as the food was exceptional last time. This visit was less so. Upon arriving there was nowhere to park except an electric bay, which I was later made to move from but again, no other spaces available. I ordered a steak pie, which was delicious but unfortunately had a grand total of 3 steak chunks, I told the staff but nothing was done so I paid £18.75 for pastry filled with gravy :( Overall we left a little bit disheartened to see a restaurant we once loved go downhill. Food is delicious but overpriced especially when you get no meat in a meat pie. Staff were friendly which is always great to see just a shame nothing was done about my meal.

Lots of staff but all talking to each other about social events they having and customers leaving their tables to get their own drinks. Food was poor. Over charged and excuse was feeble. Just plan poor

Great atmosphere, the menu was varied and the food was delicious. Would highly recommend. The staff were friendly and attentive, special thanks to Ella who was our waitress, she was fab!!! After reading another review re parking, I can confirm there are PLENTY of signs signposting the parking restrictions and a tablet to enter your registration as soon as you enter, don’t let that put you off.

Food was really good and reasonably priced for the quality, ambiance was nice, service was fast and friendly. Would definitely go back for another chocolate bomb, Beware only for the rich and sickly chocolate lovers and at 1100 calories what a way to finish off a really good meal 👍👍

Such a lovely relaxed, warm, and happy place. The staff were all amazing. Professional, hardworking and obviously enjoying their roles. The manager was supportive and sociable. Food was lovely, and live music was brilliant! Wish we lived nearby so that we could become regulars!

The serving Staff were great. There was a lot of choice on the menu and the food was delicious . The seating area was comfortable.

Visited on 29 May 2024, lunchtime. Food and service good but drinks very overpriced. Pint of shandy £5.80. Two 330mMl bottles of sparkling water £8.20 (this is not a typing error).

A PLEASURE TO VISIT KINGFISHER RESTAURANT THE FOOD , THE SERVICE MAKES THIS RESTAURANT . BY THE RIVERSIDE A GREAT PLACE TO BE , WHEN THE WEATHER IS GOOD IDEAL FOR A WALK ALONG THE RIVER

After a while away due to awful menu we returned to find a refreshed menu and relaxed atmosphere. The service was excellent and the food extremely tasty. Will be returning again soon

Lovely place, food is delicious and they have live music on a Sunday evening now

Had dinner with my wife here. Friendly staff and good pub food. Started, Main and Desserts were all good. Mocktail 🍸 according to my wife excellent. Wine glasses had probably some washing up residue in but got replaced immediately, so no real harm done. Just to be more careful for future servings. 😉

Always a great meal at the Kingfisher, our go to pub/restaurant when camping at the CCC over the river.

A lovely place to eat or just stop for a drink with outside garden opposite the rubber so you can watch the boats etc passing by. Nice and peaceful will go again

6 of us had a lovely selection of starters, meals and puds. Great staff

I'm diabetic and there was nothing on menu I could order. Told manager but no offer to put something together so went away hungry. Very sad.

Best Sunday Lunch in the area! Trio of Beef is beautiful. Highly recommended.

Nice place , lovely friendly staff , and decent food . Will be back .

Great place, well looked after and great food. The desserts are delicious.

We visited the place Sunday the 12th and the atmosphere was great. The manager was very polite with us and the food was delicious. Definitely recommend 👌

Really enjoy this pub, great halfway stop on a walk for a pint. Dog friendly too. Great atmosphere outdoors too.

Only went in for drinks but the food looked good. Great range of beers and excellent friendly service.

me and my husband love it here! firm favourite for an evening out of lovely food and delicious cocktails

Love this pub when visiting family nearby, stay at campsite

Food.was lovely. Service was good very nice server. Food could have been hotter.

Sunday lunches are the best around by far, never have a bad experience! Staff are brilliant!

My second visit here yesterday and will definitely be back ! First visit was quick nibbles which were delicious and then yesterday we had a two course lunch deal which was absolutely beautiful ! Couldn't fault anything at all

What a great lunch today. Sea Bass & Linguine were incredible. We ate every scrap! Can’t wait to return.

Food was very good and service was friendly and helpful. We had requested in our booking a table that was suitable for a disabled guest which was not where we were directed to but the staff were apologetic and were able to relocate us within a few minutes.

Such a fantastic pub, the food is just incredible and the service compliments the quality of the food! Staff are really welcoming and friendly, I just don’t get the negative reviews?! Never had a bad experience and I go often enough. Keep up the great work, without doubt the best pub around Chertsey, Shepperton, Weybridge areas!

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff and great food, we had the roasts which were very tasty.

Very nice food. Lovely ambience. Beautiful setting in the summer. Fish and chips were good. 6/9/2023 A lovely day to have a pint - or two - outside The Kingfisher. 25/1/24 Nice and cosy indoors on this breezy January day. Our burger meals were very tasty. Megan our young lady server was kept busy with all the diners but she was cheerful and attentive to everyone. The ice cream in hubby's dessert was so creamy and he loved the chocolate cookie that came with it. Wine prices have gone up sadly. 22/4/24 Nice ambience in the restaurant. Megan our server was efficient, polite and friendly. Food was great as usual. Peroni £6.50 a pint a tad expensive. Bottle of house white £22.50, also a bit expensive imo.

Service was very good, all staff very helpful & pleasant. Food was well presented, everyone enjoyed their lunch. There was plenty of choice

Lovely love gastropub. First went here over a decade ago and it wasn’t as nice as now although it wasn’t quite rough and ready then. Now though, it’s looking quite nice and the food was amazing!! Hake was delicious just under £19. Lamb shank just under £27. We had a starter or squid and mushroom and 2 pots of tea. With 10% tip it came to just over £76. Is that reasonable? Yes for its delicious food. Except the lamb shank. Quite dry and over cooked- like lunch leftover. Service was super professional. Parking is free. View of river Thames is a bonus. Give it a go!

Another excellent evening at the Kingfisher. There is always a warm welcome from Isaac, Harry and the team, food was superb once again. These guys certainly know how to run a venue, absolutely first class, thanks for a wonderful evening.

Chicken was great, Harry and the team are fantastic

Very accommodating staff. Great atmosphere with low level music playing. Food was 10/10 - personally ordered Crispy Duck with rainbow salad and for dessert Small coconut sorbet with mixed fruit accompanied with a passion fruit martini

I have eaten here a few times and the food is always really good. Roasts are good sized portions and delicious.

We had a family meet up here today, but even though we hadn’t booked they found us a lovely table. The staff were helpful, the food was out of this world, clean plates from mains and deserts.

As per a few reviews the staff there don't actually look like they want to work there, all they are interested in is gossiping (easily overheard by customers). Long wait for food and not the best quality. It used to be a lovely place but has gone down.

Easy booking. Special request accommodated. Food delicious (4 different dishes and desserts!).
