11 of the best pubs in Richmond

From resplendent riverfront retreats to beguiling old boozers hidden amongst winding cobbled streets, Richmond is a pub lover's dream.

Renowned throughout London for its many fantastic taprooms, inns, and taverns, Richmond is a veritable treasure trove of discoveries for that uniquely British institution, the humble pub.

William Gadsby Peet raises a glass to his top 11 (yes, 11) local taprooms. With a history of involvement in the local area stretching back over 24 years, he's more qualified than most to remark upon its wettest watering holes.

The Princess Head

The princes head on Richmond green is the best - I saw Ted Lasso in there

Lass o Richmond hill

Previously forgotten pub, but now with new management this cosy little place serves amazing food and great beer. Very cosy and perfect place for a pint after a walk in Richmond park

The Mitre Tw9

I agree with Jim. The Mitre is should have definitely made the list. I don’t understand that you can do a list of the top 10 pubs. When ou clearly visited all the pubs

White Swan, Richmond

The White Swan IS in Richmond, down Old Palace Lane!! And should most definitely be in the top 10!!!

Another Missing pub

The Mitre in East Richmond/North Sheen. A fine array of ales and ciders. A large beer garden and enormous screen for sports. Music and seasonal events.

Sports?

Might be a large screen but I've never seen sports on it. Is that a thing now? I know rugby was put on but that's of no interest to me.

Missing pub

Any list that does not include The White Swan is not correct.

The White swan is not in Richmond The

The White swan is not in Richmond..That's why it's not on the list...! But I do love that pub

White Swan

The White Swan is in Richmond as Lynsey correctly points out. The Mitre though close is technically not.

Adam more than 6 years ago

Yes it is.

Nick, there are two white swan pubs. One in Twickenham, the other is just off Richmond Green down Old Palace Lane, which is most assuredly in Richmond.
