About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Lively
'The Crabtree, with its spectacular position downstream from The River Cafe,
has a huge sprawling garden, a glazed colonnade and frontage on to the
Thames shaded by a weeping willow. The prawns in chilli hot oil and the toast
spread with tomatoes and onions were good, so much so we ordered them
again when we returned for Sunday lunch. Sunday roasts with 'all the
trimming's' - we tried beef and pork - had everything a Sunday roast should
have. Somewhere rather spiffing to go' (Fay Machsler, Evening Standard)

    Hi Gisle, We are sorry to hear your food arrived before your drinks. This was a miscommunication between the team, and due to how busy it was the bar team may have made a mistake. We hope the rest of your visit was good and you will visit us again in the future. Team Crab

    Food in the garden outside is no the same as inside, it’s only burgers etc. It used to be more generous and delicious. Today burger was quite average, small and dry. The location is great next to the river though.
    The CrabtreeResponded on April 1, 2025
    Hi Julien, Thank you for your review. We serve the Crabshack BBQ menu in the garden on busy days to ensure we can accommodate more people for food whilst maintaining quality. We are sorry this was not what you expected. Team Crab

    Overall a good meal with good service. The dish that was disappointing was the vegan main course at £18. This was vegan burella with a tomato cut into 4 pieces. Not even passable as a starter to be honest. It was sent back and another option was offered. Several dishes were not available on the day we dined which was also disappointing. Fish and chips, burger and fish pie were all very good.
    The CrabtreeResponded on March 24, 2025
    Hi Sarah, Thank you for your review. We are sorry you were not satisfied with the vegan burella dish, we have passed your comments on to the food development team. Apologies for the items missing on the menu this weekend, we have just launched our Spring menu and have had some teething problems with suppliers which are now rectified. We hope you will visit us again. Best, Team Crab

    Food was OK, burger lacked abit of flavour and although the vegan Wellington was nice the portion size was more like a sausage roll than a Wellington.
    The CrabtreeResponded on February 4, 2025
    Hi Jernene, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry you did not enjoy your food on Sunday. We take feedback of this kind very seriously and will be speaking to the kitchen and food team to rectify these issues. We hope you will return to give us another chance. Best, Team Crab

    Lovely pub with charming staff but very bland food. We known the menu well (from The Havelock) but here it isn’t so good. We had a lovely evening (although three screaming children initially were noisy!) but wouldn’t come for the food.
