We went to the Weir for drinks and dinner. Both Fish n Chips and Banger & Mash were great and delicious! This pub has the best location as well. Will definitely visit again.

The location and the pub itself is quite charming. Away from the busyness of any main roads and the patio is the place to be on a nice day. The fried small plates items are rather good, the chips and the fried halloumi is to die for.

We stayed here for a couple of nights and had a lovely time. The staff here are fantastic, very welcoming and polite. The location is lovely, and if I lived closer I could definitely see myself coming here all the time for a drink or dinner by the river. I do agree with some reviews that the rooms are looking a little tired (but clean!), and I think there's some very quick and cheap wins to be had which would make them look a lot better (new shower hose perhaps ). But when you take into account the price, the location, and the staff, I think it's excellent value for money and I'd happily stay here again.

Lovely pub on a secluded part of the river. Very nice pint and friendly service. Haven't seen the rooms but it all looks lovely downstairs, see no reason why upstairs would be any different. Will definitely return.

We stopped for a snack and drinks. We had duck spring rolls which were served beautifully with sweet chilli sauce and salad with a mustard dressing. Probably the best spring rolls I’ve had – thin crispy pastry with a delicious duck filling The drinks were nice. I asked for lime and soda with bitters (where I am used to lemon lime and bitters in Australia) which they accommodated and it was quite delicious. A nice setting good service and a helpful, friendly girl behind the bar. Recommended highly.

Had an exceptional experience staying at the Weir Hotel. It's a lovely quiet location not too far from the airport and a bike ride along the Thames into London. The room was modest but clean and the staff who greeted us in the evening were warm and friendly. The hospitality in the morning was similarly 10/10, we enjoyed a huge delicious breakfast which fully accommodated for us being vegan and had lots of great coffee. Would absolutely recommend this hotel if you need a place to stay in London!
