Admittedly we arrived at 1pm on a sunny Friday, however, we were not told of a long wait for food. There was no bitter on pump, only bottles. I ordered a sandwich and waited an hour before I chased it up. When it arrived, the side salad was drenched in water, soaking the brown bread. I tried to pick up the sandwich, but the bread was too soggy and collapsed. I started to put the contents into the top slices and noticed that instead of chicken bacon, I only had bacon. My friend’s wrap was in a pool of water, she asked for a serviette to dry the plate, the waitress offered no apology and just brought cutlery in a serviette, missing the point completely. We were due to have crisps as well as a...
If I could give a higher rating I would do! There is not one bad thing about this place! The food is really good quality, never had anything bad at all and reasonably priced too plus it's quick service which is always with a smile. The staff are genuinely amazing and a credit to the place, always friendly and professional! They make you feel welcomed every time you step in, there's a pool table and dart board too which is all you need in a pub. You get a very diverse group of people going in and out but everyone is always courteous of one another e.g when people are playing pool/darts. Also it's a lot better in the summer out in the beer garden and taking in all of the scenery. To summarize...
This charming historic pub with a restaurant has a cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. The food is delicious and reasonably priced with generous portions. My wife and I dine here often and have never been let down. They also host events and have a spacious garden, some of which is covered. The pub has themed nights and live performances that are worth checking out. Located next to the Thames and Tilbury Fort, it's definitely worth a visit.
Interesting location near the Tudor fort and the Thames ferry to Gravesend. Stopped for a couple of drinks and sat outside. Looks quaint from the front but nothing special inside and at the rear and not a very extensive or interesting selection when it comes to real ale. Shame it doesn’t have a view over the river as it’s too low down. I can’t comment on the food as I didn’t eat here.

We decided to visit this restaurant mainly because of its iconic name, which was made famous by a movie. My two teenage boys are big fans of the movie, so we wanted to check it out. After a chilly visit to the Fort in Suffolk, we were looking to warm up with some food. We were pleasantly surprised by the cozy atmosphere of the restaurant and the delicious dishes it offered.
Visited for first time since lock down over weekend and had an excellent meal, as always, along with very good company. Excellent service from the staff, as always. So great to be able to return to such a great place, situated on the riverfront, with lovely surrounding views. Many thanks to them all for such a lovely evening.
All closed up, looks like it's another pub gone. Went for little stroll with friends along the waterfront and decided on making pub our lunchtime stopover, as we have before. No signage outside for menu, or the usual sky tv/ football banners, and all the chairs stacked up inside. Shame possibly another landmark going.
Lovely welcoming friendly staff. We have eaten here before. Food today was very good again. Prices are good. Peacefull quiet for lunch by the river Thankyou x

The landlady was lovely and very friendly. The food was delicious. We chose this restaurant because it is close to the cruise terminal for our next trip.
Pop in here occasionally with family or just myself really nice spot right on the river. Food and drink really good value. Staff are great
