Inside, it's very cosy with a blazing log fire (and you can smell the smoke a little which I like) and comfortable seating ranging from benches to low slung armchairs where you can really settle in for the night. There are no juke boxes or one armed bandits but there is piped music which tends not to be too modern. The food is really good and although I didn't try it last week when I was there, the fish and chips looked brilliant. There are also a large number of other dishes on the blackboard and locals say they are all great.

The bar staff are friendly with regulars chatting to the staff. The pub was packed on a Saturday afternoon, but we managed to find a nice spot reading the weekend papers. There is a courtyard here - perfect for the warmer weather and a restaurant towards the back of the pub. This pub has a very relaxed feel about, and as a result is homely. Added bonus is they have a open log fire too - a real winner in my book!

Marginally passable Tikka Masala, soggy naan, and basmati rice in dry clumps. Did get my appetizer chicken wings for dessert. Surly bartender Shawn insisted that she took orders on between which delayed mine, but that was pure rubbish, as she was not present at the bar when orders were placed. She was extraordinarily rude, trying to justify the service with outright fabrications, with no apologies whatsoever. Was completely dismissive and gave zero respect.

The Thames Head Inn, despite it being listed here on yelp as a "pub" ,is actually a whole lot more…read more Yes, it's a nice pub serving very good food (said the person who ate a breakfast, a lunch, and a dinner here over the course of 2 days) but it's also a place of lodging, a campground, and the closest business to the headstone marking the origin of the Thames River (if you're into checking that off your list). As for the lodging, assuming you're not camping, there's a handful of rooms on the property, outfitted very nicely. They're quiet, pristine, and open directly onto a simple patio space. My sole complaint is that the bathroom featured no overhead shower, just a handheld sprayer, which I imagine was intended for use in the tub as there was also no shower curtain. I scouted out the camper/caravan space sitting about a 10-second walk from the rooms, and it was vey attractive, green, and clean. Restroom and shower for these sites is over near the patio space shared by the rooms. Finally, I am happy to give the pub itself a thumbs up. All of the food I had here was delicious and the space itself is nicely appointed. It's clear that someone puts a great deal of care into the entire enterprise, and I appreciated that. The Thames Head Inn might be the place closest to the source of the Thames River but if you're into that, lucky for you, as there's nothing here that's not to like.

Food is gorgeous - tapas style, so brilliant for if you are only peckish or after a bit more They also serve the pub classics such as burgers, chips etc. They are tasty - far tastier than any chain pub I have eaten in before. Serve the usual drinks - wines, beers, fantastic cocktails (the bar men will create to your own taste if it is not on the menu and they have the ingredients - you just have to ask) This place has the benefit of table service. Something that other pubs in town are lacking. Music is played but not too loud - meaning you can have a conversation without shouting. There is an outside area with heating lamps, which is good in the summer months and evenings. Highly recommend this pub to people of all ages.
