Perhaps you should post the above on Tripadvisor
Shillingford Bridge - stopped for afternoon tea, some time ago. The place was plagued by flies. Not much fun trying to avoid eating the bluebottles which had landed on the scones. I think we ended paying for only one pot of tea and left pretty sharpish. Waitress blamed the flies on the local farmer... By her comment I am assuming he was alive.
Massive flies have always plagued Shillingford, it's the pig farmer across the river that everyone blames.
Are you using "pig" as a noun or an adjective, Ian ? ;D
Especially as the tide end cottage is so good...
We had a trip from Penton Hook to Teddington yesterday and ate at Tides End. I agree absolutely with Apollo. Decent meal, fair price and a good evening.
They currently have a temporary manager with a new one starting at the end of January.
Also very pleasant to start the season early.
