If random AF pubs are your thing then this is place for you! I loved it quirkiness. Exotic items and artwork made it a unique pub. Worth a visit.

Brilliant country pub, good selection of real ales, lovely beer, good selection of spirits, lovely friendly barmaids to talk too. If you want a drink in a fine pub with a good atmosphere then you won't be disapointed here. Dor or night. A Great English Pub.

Great pub that used to be my local many years ago. Victoria is a lovely host and keeps the pub quirky whilst offering good well kept beers and various bar snacks. Only downside was the lack of people in the pub while we were there which is sad to see as it’s a nice place to drink.

Wonderful evening. Super atmosphere. Jannis was our waiter and he made us feel so comfortable and made the evening more enjoyable. Very fun waiter. We had our first date here & also got engaged here so it's one of our favourite places to come ❤️

I was with a group of dear friends for a Birthday Lunch on the 6th November. The pub was clean, warm and very tastefully decorated. We were greeted warmly and shown to our lovely table. Th service from Jannis our waiter was fantastic. He was friendly, charming and with a touch of humour. He was skilled and knowledgable about the menu and advised on our choices when asked. It was a lovely main- absolutely delicious and gorgeous dessert- quite unique!The chefs know what they are doing! Will be visiting again and will recommend to friends. Thank you x

Lovely old pub by the river. Lovely food and friendly staff. A little expensive but worth it for the quality and location. Lovely atmosphere inside. We sat in the bar, I would advise booking if you want to sit in the restaurant. We will be back as there is so much tasty looking food on the menu.

Just had a lovely meal at the rising sun pub. We had the chicken and halloumi skewers. Very large portions, well presented and very tasty. Blondie Bakewell for dessert was yummy. Value for money was very good. Staff were friendly and attentive. Definitely, recommend a visit.

Had a family meal and I must comment the food, service and menu was excellent. The prices on the new summer menu are good value too. Keep up the great work with the changes under new ownership! The jerk chicken, pie, burger and kebabs were fantastic. The staff were really friendly and attentive too

We had an excellent Sunday roast today. The food was plentiful, hot & delicious. The service was fantastic. Thank you.

Went for a light meal after walking along the river. Staff were pleasant and welcoming. Sandwich options were a bit restricted ( 3 options ), thankfully we all found one we liked. Thought £12 was a bit pricey for a sandwich with fries ( usually pubs serve them in a small ramekin) . But when they brought the food out there was plenty there, a nice big sandwich, a bowl of fries and a decent side salad. The time of day we were there plus the weather meant that it was quiet there , however I'm sure it gets a lot of custom normally. Would recommend to others.

I've driven past on a few occasions and have always noted that they seemed to be busy so I finally decided to take the family there for breakfast and I was pleasantly impressed. It's a lovely setting with a really good menu. The service was excellent so I'll definitely be making Teal Cafe a regular visit.

Having passed here hundreds of times in the car, it was about time I stopped in for a full English. I was pleasantly surprised with how large the café is, and that it was relatively packed too considering it's quite out of the way. The decor is really lovely, and it feels cosy inside, and you can bring dogs inside too. The staff were great, and really friendly. We had the Teal Breakfast with black pudding added on, all the elements of the breakfast were perfectly done to my liking, and the egg yolk was still runny too! Will definitely be back for another fry up at a later date

It's busy so noisy at peak times and the parking spaces are small for modern size cars but ... none of that matters with lovely staff, great coffee, and tasty food. It's not the cheapest cafe but it's cheaper for what you get as it has quality ingredients and quality staff... I was meeting a client as it is a convenient location with parking.... given the service and food etc I'll be meeting clients here again...

I used this cafe a year ago and I was blown away but today on my visit I was not as impressed as I was on my first visit, the owner seems to be using Aldi products, table sources teabags mainly all items are from Aldi. The price has gone up quite substantially and the quality has gone down, I do understand that the price of food has gone through the roof, I have been to many different cafes in my area and at least they are using quality products I know the costs have gone up for them have I understand but they are still using quality products as for Crayside are using Aldi products. Don’t actually believe this is good value for money but they are the most friendly people you ever meet and clean and tidy I would rather pay more for quality products than pay £10 for a rubbish breakfast

The food is very delicious, and every product used is of high quality, the staff is friendly and warm-blooded people, also the place is very clean, I have no doubt that I will prefer the most beautiful cafe in the region again 😀

This is by far the best cafe in Crayford. . I tried a few Others and this one is the best. The food is always hot, the portions are large. The prices are reasonable And the filter coffee is always made perfectly the way I like it. ( black coffee with a small amount of cold milk!) The owner is always kind & friendly and I highly recommend this cafe. Definitely a 5 star from me! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Stopped off here after a day at Eagle Heights on a bank holiday weekend. We got a table for two with ease, happy and attentive staff. They had a wide selection of foods, including pan fried duck, steak and kidney pudding, fish, vegetarian and lots more. We were served promptly and food was hot on arrival, additional sides we had forgotten were delivered quickly without trouble. We had a couple of ciders and two mains all just over £40 which is pretty good in today's world for an afternoon out. Excellent country pub find a stone's throw from the river. The car park is just opposite the old English pub across the road.

It's been 20 years since I visited this pub, and I was pleased to see that it is still going! The service was top notch, and the beer well kept. I didn't eat here, but comments I overheard from other tables were positive, so I might give it a go next time.

We got together here for a family lunch. The server was very sensitive to the fact we hadn't seen each other for a while and did not bother us unnecessarily. We enjoyed a good meal with excellent desserts.

As usual MSV provide a decent quality restaurant on site offering a full lunch service at a reasonable price. Really friendly staff and the usual evocative historic picture gallery of past races. Appropriately, given I require a larger race seat, I sat next to a picture of Gerry Marshall while I ate my pie n chips....

Amazing place to stay (kids and dogs welcome - well behaved ones 😅) the design of the interior makes you stay and eat more (and also read a good book but that’s just me haha) There are spaces to stay outside when there is such a nice sunny day as today. The staff is very nice and helpful. There is a decent size parking available.
