Tap Tavern

Tap Tavern: Richmond’s Premier Craft & Gin Den

21st-century Central Perk meets Cheers. Tucked away in the heart of Richmond, Tap Tavern is an independent free house on a mission: bringing the UK’s most exciting micro-brews to the Southwest London scene. Whether you're here for a post-work pint or a high-energy weekend blowout, we provide the perfect backdrop of industrial-chic vibes and warm neighborhood hospitality.

The Pour: 17 Taps & "Perfect Serve" Gins

We don't do "basic" behind the bar. Our selection is curated for the curious:

• The 17-Tap Wall: A daily rotating lineup of local and independent UK micro-brews. From West Coast Pales and Saisons to silky Milk Stouts and specialty casks, there’s always something new to discover.
• Gin "Perfect Serves": We specialize in 50ml measures of small-batch gems like Bone Idyll and Hampton Court Six Wives. Served in our signature Copa Goblets, try a Roku with blackberry and lavender or a Slingsby Rhubarb with elderflower tonic.
• Craft Cocktails: Expertly shaken classics with a twist. Don't miss the Soho Picante (chilli & coriander) or our Smoked Old Fashioned featuring Eagle Rare and Lagavulin 16.

The Kitchen: Gourmet Sandwiches & Social Eats

Our food is designed to be as bold as our beer.

• The Lunch Crowd: Elevate your midday break with our curated range of Gourmet Sandwiches—premium ingredients, zero fuss.
• Social Snacking: Dive into our famous Truffle & Parmesan Crispy Baby Potatoes or the crowd-favorite Teriyaki Chicken Bites.
• The Main Event: From Traditional Fish & Chips to juicy burgers and grill staples, we offer a menu that hits the spot every time.
