London's Best Riverside Pub
When winter rolls, there is no better place to enjoy the season than in our riverside pub. Perched right on the Thames, our fire’s are always glowing, our drink selection always excellent, and there’s always a seat for anyone looking to escape the cold. Whether you’re popping in for a pint after a frosty walk along the river with your dog, settling in for a hearty meal with family and friends, or gathering your favourite people together for a winter celebration in one of our private spaces, we’re here to make you feel right at home.
We can’t wait to welcome you.
The Best Pub Food in West London
When the temperature dips, nothing comforts quite food from your favourite local. Our kitchen leans into everything you love about proper British pub food, think generous plates, honest flavours, seasonal specials (take a look at our specials board), and dishes made to warm you from the inside out.
Our chefs thoughtfully put together a menu using British, seasonal and fresh ingredients, so you can trust that what you order is made fresh, in-house. Looking for classic comforts? Well you’ll love our fish and chips with a golden crunch, pies bubbling with rich winter fillings, sausage and mash beneath glossy gravy, and seasonal soups that pair perfectly with a thick slice of sourdough. No fuss, no frills, just great food that hits the spot.
Private Hire in Hammersmith
We are here to make winter occasions memorable, and with warm lighting, views of the river Thames, and plenty of space to celebrate, our beautiful private rooms are made for just about any occasion. Whether you’re planning a corporate day out, a family get-together, or a special occasion, we’ll help make it effortless from the moment you book to the big day itself. Great food, tasty drinks, a riverside backdrop and a space all to yourself, winter events don’t get much better than that!
Sundays With Us
Sundays are made for slowing down. Picture this: the comforting crackle of a fire, the scent of roasted meats drifting through the pub, a plate piled high with golden potatoes, maple-roasted carrots, and Yorkshire puddings ready to soak up rich, velvety gravy. The hum of chatter, glasses clinking, and the warmth of family gathered round. Whether you’re here with loved ones or just in need of a hearty pick-me-up, our roasts bring comfort, flavour, and that country pub feeling in London.
Drinks Along The River
Winter brings out a different side of our bar, and we love it. Our winter cocktail list turns decadent, our shelves fill with bold reds, velvety malbecs, and deeper, darker spirits for fireside sipping. And of course, our cask ales and winter brews are ready to be poured by the pint. Whatever your winter mood, we’ve got the drink to match it.
Find A Room Nearby
Why cut the night short? After a proper meal, a bottle of wine, or a big celebration with us, you don’t have to think about the last train home. Our sister pubs nearby offer comfy rooms just a short walk away, so you can party, feast, and savour every last drink knowing a soft bed is waiting in another wonderful pub. Make a night of it, make a weekend of it and make the most of enjoying Hammersmith.
Our Winter Set Menu
Our Winter Set Menu celebrates this serene season, featuring dishes made from seasonal, local British ingredients that feel perfectly at home beside the river. From 5th January to 27th February, Monday to Friday, you can treat yourself to two courses for £19 or three courses for £23, enjoying the comfort of hearty winter flavours as you watch the river move quietly outside.
Watch The Six Nations
We’re not the rowdiest pub in Hammersmith (that’s not what we’re here for), but for the Six Nations, we’re the perfect spot if you prefer a relaxed seat, a good pint, and a catch up with your friends while you watch the match. No packed crowds, no shouting, just a warm pub, great food, and rugby in your favourite local.
What's On in Hammersmith
Winter is full of moments worth celebrating, and we love hosting them. From Burn’s Night specials, to Valentines Day in your favourite riverside local, to all of the action of the Six Nations, spoiling your mum with an extra special roast dinner for Mother’s day, and if you’re thinking about Cambridge vs Oxford boat race already, we have the best riverside views in Hammersmith.
Follow Us On Socials
If you want to keep up with everything we’re pouring, plating, celebrating, and showcasing, give us a follow on Instagram. It’s the best place to catch seasonal dishes, event announcements, offers, dog visitors, and everything happening on the river.
Dog Friendly Pub
Muddy boots and paws are welcome here! We adore being a stop-off for dog walks along the river. Bring your four-legged friends in to warm up, settle down, and enjoy a treat or two while you unwind with something tasty. Dogs aren’t just allowed, they’re part of the family here!
