Just read the comments and can't believe this place went downhill. It was a great pub in its time in a beautiful setting, friendly with lots of great regulars in it. Have some great memories of working in there listening to the Gypsy Kings (never thought I would listen to them), the crazy irish manager Mary, and the french deputy Julie who kept everything afloat. Often think of Jamie, you know who you are. Unfortunately had to pack in my fun job, go back to Uni and get a serious one! Have always thought of going back and walking in and getting Jim and Liam a pint, sadly this will never happen now.

Use to go here as a "kid" when they had saw dust on the floor and live bands upstairs. It use to heave. Good pick-up joint in its time. Even had a wet t-shirt competition on one occasion ! Use to go here after school and order twelve pints during happy hour and sit/run around drinking them all night. The local papers at the time (early eighties) were always complaining about the rough crowd that The Streets attracted and how it was revolting that residents had to wake up and find sick and ripped underwear on their lawns. Happy days.

This was an awful place. Good riddance. Now a cheap eats pizza/pasta place downstairs, with soon to be done flats above and round the back.

A much more congenial atmosphere now that it is shut.

It's a shame for the first 5 years or so of living in Molesey this was my regular Friday night out. Nice pub but the owners let it go downhill and ruined it. The top couple of floors are now going to be flats and ground florr a Pizza/Pasta resturant, shame.

What a waste! This is a huge pub in a beautiful location adjacent to Hampton Court Bridge on the River Thames. It used to be fantastic with its bowling alley, loads of well maintained pool tables and lively atmosphere. However, the bowling alley has been removed, all of the pool tables are shit, and the pub hasn't been cleaned let alone redecorated for years. Not surprisingly the atmosphere has turned distinctly moody, and the only sign of life is a fleeting pre-club crowd that downs a couple of bottles of lolly water before going to the club opposite. Christ knows what the management are up to, perhaps they're just sitting on the property waiting to sell it? They obviously haven't invested any money or effort in the pub for years, and don't give a shit. This pub is not worth visiting, even if you're standing on the nearby train station in the snow, developing frostbite, with four hours to kill before the next train.

The best football pub around. Will be excellent during the World Cup Finals.
