Welcome to The Magpie.
We pride ourselves as a beautiful riverside gastropub with an amazing dining room overlooking the Thames, serving fresh seasonal food with an impressive range of real ales, craft beers, an extensive gin list and a great wine list.
We offer full table service in every part of our premises.

We are a dog-friendly pub as long as they are with well-behaved hoomans but do not allow dogs in our dining area if you would like to bring a four-legged friend please let us know and we can seat you in our bar area.
Luckily enough, we are lucky to have a car park just across the road if you are coming from afar.

We are now an Over21 pub only, please bear this in mind.

Met up with some former work colleagues on a Wednesday night for dinner. Pub was relatively quiet, service was excellent. Food was really good. Definitely recommend, especially in summer when you can sit outside by the river.

Always a lovely dining experience, although we'd reserved a table inside, with the weather being so nice the team were relaxed about us sitting outside for a couple of drinks first. Food was great and service as always was brilliant.

Food took a good while to arrive, even though it was fairly quiet in terms of patrons. Unfortunately, the steak wasn’t cooked medium rare as requested, but ‘well done’. However, the burger I ordered was delicious. After pointing out the steak issue to the server, it was removed from the bill. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Unfortunately, the day we visited they had experienced an issue with the gas in the kitchen and were only able to offer a limited menu. We were advised of the issue as soon as we arrived and the staff were incredibly apologetic. We chose to stay and had an enjoyable meal. The lower marks are reflective of the limited menu on our visit rather than a problem with the food or the venue. We would be more than happy to revisit when in the area. The service from the staff was impeccable throughout.

Hello, thank so much for your kind words - and many apologies for the gas problems. Glad you have still enjoyed and hope to see you soon
