The thing is with a pub that serves traditional food is that it can be difficult for it to stand out - thankfully, The Bell & Crown maintain a flair that makes the experience uniquely delicious. I like to order a burger when trying a pub for the first time because while it's a safe option, it always has the potential to blow you away and this was a really delicious one. I wish it had been sunny when I went, because the outside area is lovely, overlooking the Kew Bridge bit of the Thames.
I had crossed The Bell & Crown a few times already but never had the chance to get in. In a sunny day like today it felt like the perfect moment. No idea the space was so big indoors! Quite lovely indeed. We just had a few drinks, but I'm sure I'll be back for some food one day :)
Awesome pub with great food. The Korean chicken wings were just the right balance to go with beer or cider - not too spicy but enough Asian flavour. The Seared Owton’s dry-aged skirt steak was very good as well for an alternative steak. The cider there is always great. Fish and ships is descent, too. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere - I can definitely recommend!
Excellent pub food, Sunday lunch is good too. Great choice of wines and beers, they even do Lucky Saint on tap . Highly recommended.
Freindly staff. Best by foot. Limited parking.
Great location on the bank of the Thames. Fantastic view.

Fabulous, but of course weather makes the spot on the Thames, watching the boaters racing up and down the river. Busy spot on a Sunday afternoon but still prompt service with a smile. Nice to get a bench seat on river bank. I recommend this any day when sun is shining.
We booked the Bell & Crown for a wedding celebration and were able to have full use of the pub. The staff were so lovely, friendly and helpful and the food was amazing. We had several people who had specific dietary requirements and they were really looked after.
Nothing was too much trouble and they even took delivery of a couple of things and stored flowers etc for us the day before.
The space works really well for a party, an area to have music and dance, and various spaces for people to hang out, both inside and out by the river (we had about 150 people).
All the guests had such a good time. I would highly recommend this pub for any private event as well as for the usual brunch, lunch, few drinks etc.
I loved the spot. Great potition on the river and quiet / good food all very welcome

Nice place to enjoy a cold beverage. Tasty food and the view is amazing by the end of the day. Specially after a sunny day
Another offering from local brewer Fuller's. A delightful pub in a delightful setting. The Bell and Crown is adjacent to the river with a conservatory dining area overlooking same. Great service from a bar offering plenty of choice, whether beers, wines soft drinks or from the top shelf. Super visit and lovely people
Great team of staff here - everyone was so friendly, attentive and helpful. Daniel in particular took care of our table and he did such a great job! Friendly atmosphere with a lovely view of the river. The venue itself is full of character. The food was great - loved the chicken wings in particular. The sirloin steak was cooked exactly as requested so hats off to the chef! Thank you for a wonderful evening :)
It’s one of my favourite bar and restaurant.
The staffs are very friendly. The bartender always recommend the best drinks to pair with my meal. Food is yummy and price is reasonable. Take a beer and enjoy it outside the bar or on the terrace, you will then have a wonderful time to chill beside the river. Needless to say anything, see my picture and you will understand.
Remember to make a reservation if you not come here on weekdays.
It is blessed with a wonderful location...sitting as it does on the banks of the river Thames...as the ripping waters float by.. its very easy to forget the world..its a fullers pub...so the beer selection is poor...however the ambience of the place more than makes up for it...we enjoyed our visit.
Indulge in an awesome Sunday lunch by the Thames River, complemented by delectable brownies that will leave you craving more. It's a perfect combination of delicious food and serene ambiance!
Such a nice place the bartender Mathew was so nice I loved the place and I will go back again for sure ❤️
We had a very lovely family dinner at bell & crown. Cosy and super friendly pub, with great food. The signature dish shoulder lamb was incredible and the chef made special potatoes mash for us. Daniel was the most accommodating and attentive server, thank you so much.
Right by the river. Great ambience. We Cld not get a outdoor seating as it was crowded but the nice lady boss got us a table at the lower deck indoor. Pleasant. The food was good n worth a return visit
A very very pleasant afternoon here. We arrived on a sunny Saturday afternoon and didn't have a reservation. There were reserved signs on the tables outside, but when I spoke to one of the staff members, they said we could have one of the tables for an hour and a half if that worked. It did, perfectly. The food and drinks came quickly and were very tasty. The rest of the staff were also very friendly and polite. Great location and great food!
A proper Sunday roast served here, washed down with a Fullers ale from the brewery down the road. Very friendly service - almost disturbingly friendly, like they had a grand plan to trap us in the oven and turn us into pies - and table service in the dining area, with views of the river. They seem to let people with dogs into the pub (I'm more in favour of just letting in the dogs) and I only found it funny the first 5 times I had to politely stop this one bloke's dog from leaping up onto our table and eating my lunch.
Beautiful place by the river. We tried the Sunday roast that was really good. Highly recommended it.
The Bell and Crown is a solid pub and you can always be sure of a warm welcome and quality food. The chef and staff are great.
We had the Sunday roast - vegetarian nut roast for me and chicken for my partner. Both really good with plenty on the plate to ensure appetites are sated.
This place is always a go to when we're in the area.
