Waterside Inn, Fulhamback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
Started going back here recently after work, such an improvement from when it first opened a few years ago. Even the food has improved greatly,a bit pricey if you don't take any of their special deals but it's worth paying for

If you're lucky enough to be able to find the entrance you many not entirely hate this pub. All the doors at the waterside actually look like windows, and on many occasions the people I've seen who were lucky enough to find a door handle on the outside of the building soon discovered that the door was locked and were promptly thrown back to square one. If they survived the resulting exposure from the elements I'd say the nearby QueCumBar Must have earned many extra frustrated patrons for this fact alone.
Once in, you can tell that this Youngs pub is located in the middle of a cheaply constructed block of flats for stock brokers and football players in need of a nearby pied-de-terre. It's overstated, overpriced, under staffed and the potions wouldn't feed a 3 yr old. I don't think even my tape worm was full after I ate the 9 chips on my plate. If you can put up with the hordes of hoo-raa-henrys laughing obnoxiously then maybe you'll find comfort from the look of mixed modern leather and traditional wood furnishings.

On the plus side, staff have always been friendly and professional when they have time to deal with you, and the barmaid was very pretty (of course this won't effect my rating :-)

A nice enough venue but unrealistic pricing and small portions prevents it from being a good pub. Disproportionally expensive carbonated beverages must also be highlighted.
|
Expensive meals, small portions, sometimes with very long waiting times.
Over �4 for a large coke...not good.
|
Four pounds and twelve pence for a pint of Coke. This is an outrage!

Fantastic location, only slightly marred by the noisy helicopters landing at the London Heliport across the river. Service in the pub is efficient, and it's great to have waiting staff to order drinks from when sitting outside by the river. Sadly this is another Young's pub that amazingly doesn't serve Young's Special. As stated previously the drinks are expensive (although given the location that isn't terribly surprising) and, unfortunately, often served in short measures. Still, overall it's a good pub in an excellent location, so well worth a visit.

Good range of Youngs beer (e.g. the seasonal Winter Warmer) and decent variety of quality lagers on draught. Currently little known (although this will change as Imperial Wharf develops) -- making it a good bet for a drink by the river if you're in SW6. Only downside -- pricey (although that's understandable given the mix of yuppies, City workers and assorted Trustifarians that live in the development on its doorstep!)

What a great pub, actually more like a bar and restaurant really, but still serves great ales. I live upstairs and have been quite a few times since it's opening, still haven't had everything on the menu, but am working my way through. Well worth a visit.
