Hired upstairs for our 50th Wedding anniversary with 60 guests. We had canapés, wine, Prosecco and the bar. The venue is great with a balcony seating over 20 people, the main room very spacious and a seperate bar. Toilets on the same floor. Best of all, the staff are fabulous. Eggsie, Max and Tasha ,in particular, were brilliant. Nothing was too much for them to make sure our guests were looked after. After the event 30 of us had dinner downstairs in a seperate restaurant room. Again great service and really good food. I cannot recommend this place more highly. Top spot!!!

The riverside location is (obviously) great. The restaurant part of the pub is very comfortable, the service is friendly, and the food is good. Two of us had the pie, one the planter's burger, one the fish and chips, and another the burrata salad (a starter, with a side of chips). Nice food, but this isn't gourmet dining.

We had a great Sunday lunch at the Old Ship (restaurant/conservatory) which is a lovely pub by the river. We were a large group and the service was excellent. Eggsie and the other staff were friendly and asked us several times if we needed anything (and the restaurant was busy). The food great and good sized portions , it also came very quickly! We will def be coming back x

We spent a lovely long summer's afternoon having lunch on the front terrace, yesterday. The only downside to the experience was the quality of some of the food, but otherwise everything was great, especially the service provided by the two young ladies behind the bar, who not only took our orders and served drinks, but also served the food and cleared up afterwards. Great service!

Lovely location, brilliant service, good selection of wines, plus a wide range of spirits. The only downside was a mixed eating experience (some of the dishes were good but others not so). However, this was more than compensated for by their attention to detail and brilliant service provided by the two young ladies behind the bar, who not only took our orders and served the drinks, but also served the food and cleared the table between courses.

10 of us there for Easter lunch. Starter (wild mushrooms on toast) was fine. However, the main course (roast beef) was pretty poor. One slice of reheated beef -- literally 1mm thick! -- and tough, as well. Pretty mean: and very poor value for £20.00 Some of the others had roast chicken. Dry and overcooked.

Possibly the worst Sunday roast we have ever had. Anemic roast potatoes, veg terrible, watery gravy and plastic cheese cauliflower cheese. The waitress Hailee was very sweet, which was the only good thing. Waste of money much better options on the area.

The pub and the food are good. The crowds at weekends make it fast food. The roast is good but service is stretched. Staff try hard but find it difficult to give quality service when busy. My preference is not to be sst at a table and querted with disinfectant as the table is cleaned from the previous customers ... The atmosphere is good and the beers awesome. Choose your time carefully!!

Sadly, as I was a reasonably frequent Balans guest, I am compelled to write a bad review. Cocktails were fabulicios, but alas, that is where the fabulous ended. The menu seems reduced, so we picked bites and sides; croquettes, mac cheese, chicken strips and skin on chips. These I sum up as cold, cold, burned and old. We watched the burned chicken, croquettes and chips in the windows for at least 15 minutes so they were stone cold, even the dishes, when we eventually persuaded the hard pushed waiter to bring g them to us. The chicken was black in places; however, the most inexcusable was the chips. No skin and very old. When I say old, the potatoes had clearly been cooked once and left for a day or two to go grey and powdery. Whether they were fried again on the day I do not know as they too, were cold. All in all, for £127, we had six cocktails and the disappointment of having to order a pizza when we got home. Really disappointing, as Balans used to he a bit if a staple of mine and only ten minutes away. Sorry, Balans, once loved, but from now on forgotten. I recommend the Bull next door feom now on.

The most unfriendly and rude lady manager I ever met. Definitely customer service and attitude is not her thing. We were a large group of people we went there after work ( we literally work opposite the pub) few of us already with drinks in hand and majority of us not, for the simple reason we were not settled yet, we were chitchatting when suddenly the lady introduced herself as a floor manager, she pointed her finger to each of us and said “ because you are occupying 25% of the floor, I want each of you ordering a drink” Obviously we were shocked and speechless and we left. Shame on her.

This is a beautiful old pub with an inviting real flame gas fire. Went with my family of 6. The food & drink’s were served very quickly. We had a combination of six different main meals & everyone was more than happy with what they ate. Five of us dessert of apple, berry & rhubarb crumble & custard which was to die for. Only hiccup was when we arrived at 7.30 there was a live band playing. Now as good as they were & the songs they played, they were rather loud & we had to shout at one another to make ourselves heard. When booking I asked for the quiet part of the restaurant as 4 of our group being 60-+ in ages weren’t to keen on loud music as we’d have to shout over it. But all in all a great pub with wonderful food & hard working staff.
