Crossing the stripling Thames at Bab-lock-hithe……..”

Lovely location on the banks of the River Thames, awesome.roast dinners.
We walked Thames Path and arrived before they were actually open, but a very nice lady still got us Apple pie, freshly brewed coffee and we also got the stamps for our Thames Path passport.
Unfortunately, our first visit was on a Sunday at 2.15. So no longer serving food that day. Visited again 9 days later great meal. Pizza so huge I was able to have it for lunch and dinner the next day. Great value. We were staying on the river
A really friendly welcome and a very relaxed atmosphere. A joyous find after a long walk. I left a small item behind and Sally was true to her word and sent it on to me which was very kind. Would happily recommend the Ferryman without hesitation.
Stopped here for a coffee whilst walking the Thames Path from Newbridge to Oxford. Great views when sitting outside. Coffee was great and good price too. Friendly place. Looks like a nice place to stay
