From the outside, The River Garden looks unusual and quirky, inside is a traditional local pub. I was expecting pub food but was pleasantly surprised by some of the higher end dishes on offer.
Brie wedges with Strawberry compote, Supreme of chicken with Dauphinoise potatoes and a red wine jus, there were also the traditional dishes like Cod and chips but all were cooked really well, no soft greasy batter!
We had a great night out although there needs to be some work done to the gents.

We hosted a 25th birthday party at the Rivergarden this weekend in the Function Room. This was a really great space with large tables we could use for boardgames, a large TV with netflix and prime video as well as a music system in the room. The space was also easily adaptable with areas to pin up birthday banners and a backdrop for photos. The toilets were just down the stairs to the room (you don't have to go through the bar to get to them which was great for us as were were dressed in cowboy costumes), the bar is also just downstairs with reasonably priced drinks and excellent food which was delivered to us in the Function Room. The Function Room has it's own external access which made it easy to bring everything into the room and made it feel like a really private event. The organisation/booking was quick and easy with the owners via email and phone who seemed just as excited for us to come and use the space as we were and they allowed us to have Berts Amazing Creatures come along too which was wonderful! I would definitely recommend the Rivergarden as as place to host parties as well as just go for food and drinks!
Many thanks for hosting 10 of us at short notice (instant!) for a meal on 15 Dec 2023, when our booked Christmas meal nearby didn't happen because of evacuation due to a safety issue.
Lovely meal, good table and ambiance, staff were great.
You saved what could have been a disastrous yearly reunion.. we had a great time 🥰
Definitely be back in the new year !
Spent 5 days just down the road from this superb pub, food was great as was the service and hospitality from the very genuine and helpful staff.
Really recommend a visit to this stunning location.
Just enjoyed our Xmas party here. Great value hot buffet,tasty and definitely plenty of food for our party. Had our own Bluetooth disco with use of the pubs equipment,Landlord also provided Karaoke for us all. Very easy going venue,will definitely arrange another meet up here.
Amazed we've not been before.
Sunny summer lunch 😋
Stunning views of the River from the extensive garden
Moongazer beer on draft was excellent
Lots to choose from on food menu. Haddock and chips very good
Highly recommend
A lovely setting beside the river. Plenty of seating in & out of shade. Food was good & we didn't wait long. Friendly staff. Dog friendly too.
Popped here on the off chance of some food. Well we weren't disappointed. Lovely lady at the bar, very helpful. Food, Sea Bass was so nice I can't stop thinking about it. Shame we were travelling, I would have happily stayed until last orders. My only regret.... I didn't have dessert, bloomin well will next time though. Thanks Rivergarden, we like you 10/10.
Lovely evening at The Rivergarden. We ate outside in what I can only describe as a magical beer garden overlooking the river. A good pub menu offering a good chice and when our food came it was well presented and delicious. At about 8.00 the Paddle Boarders arrived up the river and created a lively, buzzy atmosphere. A great pub!
Sorry but the pub has gone downhill big style.
It's such a beautiful setting, right up to the river bank.
However, I really fancied a nice Sunday roast.
We sat down and immediately noticed the table wasn't particularly clean 😐, salt and pepper pots were grubby and looking around the rest of the place, it too needed a good clean.
Anyway, got our drinks and the menu, no roast!! It's a Sunday!!! Ended up with a children's scampi, not impressed.
As I said, such a prime location with the chance to be at the top of their game.
Good food and lovely views!
Nice pub by river and good menu selection. 3 real ales.
First time visit to pub, excellent location right next to the River, large garden overlooking the River. Ideal for a party. The service was very good, pleasant and polite. Parking okay. Certainly can recommend this pub.
Nice pub, great location and a lange selection of drinks.
Greetings from William & Erik.
Never been before first time Monday. Great outdoors by river. Price for a pint average never had any food but what I saw looks great will be taking family there in the very near future.
Food is great and good value for money. It's nice to sit outside weather permitting. The view in the garden is great.
