In one of the most idyllic settings. This 17th Century building sits above a shallow slope to the Thames and enjoys both a sunny veranda balcony and a pretty paved garden right on the riverside.Apart from one or two extensions over the years the pub building remains relatively untouched, giving it a traditional pub feel.Festooned with flowers and plants outside in summer and warmed with log fires in the winter it’s been a very special local in Twickenham for many years.

    Had a fantastic evening at the Winter Garden at The Landmark—a beautiful setting with an elegant atmosphere that made for a perfect night out. The food was excellent, with each dish well-prepared and beautifully presented. The ambiance, with its stunning high ceilings and warm lighting, added to the experience. A special shoutout to our waiter, Ant, who truly made the night memorable. His attentive service, friendly demeanor, and great recommendations elevated the evening. He ensured everything was perfect and made us feel genuinely welcome. Would highly recommend dining experience with top-tier service. Will definitely be back!

    when arrived very noisy loud wih kids running and screaming and shouting later they left. In an afternoon on Saturday which we tried to be earlier and had called to see if can go even earlier we were told quiet but that is ok. Service great but each staff seemed mostly in such rush but last one asked if all ok. many thanks. Food compared to price is too high but that is most pubs. At least they have different and more food on the menu. Portions quite small especially sea bass but tastes great.

    This place doesn't disappoints. The food is inventive, well presented and delicious. No pretence. Just good food. Valentine menus tend to be boring but not this one. The choices were good and the fixed price was such good value for 4 course..
