Fox And Duck

Visit Fox and Duck in Richmond to tuck into some traditional pub food whilst cosying up by a real log fire. On the menu are light bites including cheddar and sundried tomato quiche, plus bigger plates featuring juicy burgers. It's the ideal boozer to settle down in and feel like you've escaped to the country. 

Tap Tavern

A cool Richmond pub with craft beers and ales at the heart of the menu, Tavern Tap is a fab choice. Grab a few pints with friends and crack on with a unique snack and food menu, including 'cockles popcorn' and lip-smacking roasts on the weekend.

Prince's Head

Looking for a pub as old as time itself? Look no further than Prince's Head, a rustic-style 1700s watering hole set on the green serving up cask ales and classic British fare for over three centuries. But don't fret; their food is quite contemporary, with a menu featuring traditional British dishes with a gourmet, from brown butter Chalk Stream trout fillet to buffalo sauce-glazed half-roast chicken. And when it comes to drinks, they've got all bases covered - ranging from craft lagers to seasonal ales, ciders, spirits, and even delish wines. P.S. If you're a fan of sitcoms, you might recognize this spot as the home of AFC Richmond from the hit show Ted Lasso.

Tap on the Line

This bright and colourful boozer is adorned with natural light and pretty paintings, making it the ideal starting point for a day filled with beauty. On the menu, you'll find breakfast brioches filled with maple candied streaky bacon, as well as eggs Benedict, Florentine or royale. The mains are worth shouting about too, featuring stellar sandwiches and tasty steaks.

White Horse

One of the best gastropubs in Richmond, The White Horse is known for its famous Sunday roast. With its minimal yet comfortable decor, the venue will leave you feeling right at home. The bar is stocked with Fuller's finest beers and ales which are brewed just down the road and can be enjoyed in the garden refuge.
