Only The Dawnay Arms for us,though when we go on our hols the weather is often against riparian delights.

Two for me the Canalhouse in Nottingham and the Bridge at Topsham donkeys years ago. In what way is the Canalhouse a Riverside pub?
Only two for me-
Stubbins and Artichoke (+Harkers, linked from Artichoke)
Only Stubbins is riverside, being in between River Calder and Rochdale Canal.
None whatsoever.

As you might expect,most of them
Canal House,Crate,Stubbings Wharf and Dawnay Arms (all reviewed ) and The Boat Inn many moons ago.
As the article says The Old Harkers is my usual haunt in Chester ,so have missed the Artichoke.
Inn Deep,Nags Head Inn and Bridge Inn are on rivers not suitable for narrowboats
Leaving just the Kirkstall Bridge Inn as the major ommission,hopefully corrected shortly when I will be mooring in Leeds.

Britain's best summer pubs, none in Scotland, two in Wales so not that British, the rest are mainly foody, middle class places and the Pandora Inn must be good 'cos it's in twice. I've visited four and incidentally eaten in three of them.
I've done 2 of these, The Lord Poullet and The Halfway House, and much as I hate to agree with the Torygraph, I would indeed put both of those in my top 30. The former scores very highly for food and the latter is faultless on every count.
