About Compleat Angler
On Riverside along Prince of Wales Road, Compleat Angler is a pub and restaurant with a river view and an outdoor seating area that doubles as a match-day venue for football on game days. Inside, the bar menu runs to bar snacks including sausage rolls, alongside a kids menu for younger visitors, and dogs are welcome throughout. A bouncer is on staff during busier periods, and the setting along the water gives the front a view across the river.
