The Rising Sun

The village of Hurley dates back to 700AD and is the place to come for a dose of olde-worlde charm. The Rising Sun was built in 1830 and is a popular haunt for walkers, boating people and locals alike; its close proximity to a caravan site (one of the top five in the UK) also makes it a convenient spot for tourists. While sunny days attract those looking for a wholesome supper after a walk along the Thames, winter sees patrons flock to The Rising Sun to recline in comfy sofas and get warm by the log fire. The bar stocks four regularly changing local ales, and the menu features classic home-cooked favourites. Perhaps start with breaded Brie wedges, tempura prawns or a baked Camembert to share, before moving onto a main of minted lamb shank, Cajun chicken breast or a stone-baked pizza. Sunday lunch is also popular - there is even a menu especially for children, making The Rising Sun a top choice for families
