Good food, service while polite a little slow. Good experience - would revisit.
A beautiful riverside pub Nice food excellent location Fantastic to visit if you enjoy a riverside walk dog friendly garden pods. It is recommended to book, but walk-ins accepted if the space is accepted. A modern lay out, comfy sofa if you just want to lounge. A very pretty garden backing onto the river near Thames Street. A pretty and quaint area. Excellent access for paddle boarding too
I am beyond grateful to Sheila at Coppa Club for making my friends proposal truly magical. From the very first moment I met her, her warmth, kindness, and attention to detail made all the difference. Sheila went out of her way to ensure everything was perfectly arranged, offering thoughtful suggestions and personal touches that made the day even more special. Her genuine care and dedication to creating unforgettable experiences shone through in every way. She turned what could have been a stressful task into a seamless, joyful process, and I can’t thank her enough for her support. Thanks to Sheila, this moment will forever be etched in my heart. She is truly a gem!
Went to Coppa Club to celebrate our birthdays! We had a lovely evening in one of their igloos in the garden which was beautiful and private. The food was Will definitely visit again!
A truly special place; classy, scenic, romantic. Really good service, great dinner and dessert options here, but the atmosphere is the real pull. Glad to have come.
Our second time here for Sunday brunch. Every food item is beautifully done. Our table was attended by Sheila who was an absolute gem - Attentive and friendly service, paired with her bright smile. Thank you for making our day!
A great place to enjoy the sun, even though it’s right next to the road it really doesn’t change the ambiance. The super is really good, plenty of parking and great food selection to enjoy on the riverside.
We went to the Coppa Club for my daughter's birthday and we all enjoyed it very much. We booked the igloo and it was lovely! Amazing view and service. Kids can play outside while parents enjoy a drink in the igloo. Special shout out to Hollie G for her great hospitality.
