About us

Originally a private residence for the Dutch Ambassador, The Thames Court is still adorned with hand painted Delft tiling and oak panelling, together with a set of beautiful fireplaces. In the 50s The Thames Court became a select private members club, today we welcome guests from all over country to enjoy our riverside setting.

A country pub oozing rural charm and rustic character, our picturesque surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for savouring the hearty, seasonal pub-food on our menu, and the carefully nurtured cask ales and fine wines gracing our bar.

Whether you are planning dinner with friends or Sunday lunch with family, book a table online and enjoy some quality time with those you love the most.

We visited on Sunday, 28th Jan 2024 Positives: The staff were friendly and gave us the right amount of time to decide, and the food and drinks came out relatively quickly, considering it was a busy day for them. Toilets clean. Good value. Choice of drinks, notably the flavoured soda water and pilsner. Free Parking. Negatives: Our food was a little lukewarm - in fairness, the waitress asked how it was, and we both said fine as it wasn’t worth complaining and causing a fuss over it - We didn’t want to have it taken away or swapped at this point either. Other vintage Inns: The Globe, Bath and The Golden Retriever, Bracknell; on several Sunday visits, have been warmer, so we decided to give dessert a miss just in case. Where we were sat, the sun was in one of our eyes, and we were surprised there were no blinds/shades to avoid this. We did ask to move to an alternative table, but due to it being a Sunday, this wouldn’t have been an easy swap due to it impacting further bookings - I understood this and thought it was fair enough as it would have been a headache for them to deal with for the rest of the service.

Very impressed. Requested a quiet table with a nice view and got exactly that. My mum is hard of hearing so being able to look out to the river was lovely for her. Our server Livvy was very friendly and smiley. Made us feel very welcome and gave good recommendations on the menu. Despite being busy each course came out quickly, fresh and hot. Everyone enjoyed every course. It was one of the best pub roasts I’ve ever had. Thanks again Livvy!

The service was outstanding and the food was also incredible. From the moment we sat down to the moment we left. The staff were attentive, considerate, polite and very understanding. We had our one year old daughter there too, and they made it feel so easy as comfortable for us. I cannot compliment them enough. They couldn’t have done more. 10 out of 10. This was our third visit here, we aren’t local but we make sure when we can, we travel to this lovely restaurant because it’s always superb.

Great pub just by Shepperton lock - good quality food - to be safe make a booking as I went there once and they were too busy to serve anymore food and I ended up having crisps and olives 🫒

You’d be forgiven for thinking this place is some kind of posh, highly priced restaurant/bar on the waterfront. It’s actually just a nice pub that happens to be in a nice spot. Prices are perfectly reasonable and in-line with the food. I’ve been here a number of times over the last few years, the service has always been good, the manager is always whizzing around trying to please everyone. Only couple of negatives and one is on previous occasions I haven’t been able to order my first choice of dish from the menu, and one occasion had to go with my third choice! But I guess if they’re busy and run out then not much they can do. Also, when we were here recently I was stood at the end of the bar waiting to order when two waitresses were squabbling over taking food over to a customer, both refusing to do it…. Not ideal. Car park is ample. Great location, can get busy so pick your timing. We recently had burgers…. Very, very nice… come highly recommend.
