Evening dining in Richmond

“I had the most amazing experience at Rock and Rose in Richmond. The food was great - my friend and I ordered the crispy tempura shrimp, the chicken milanese, the lamb leg steak and sticky toffee pudding for dessert - can't fault anything, tasted amazing! The drinks were delicious too, the bartenders put on a whole show for us and it added to the experience. The staff were all so lovely and hospitable, I loved the decor and ambience inside and it was super packed which goes to show how popular it is. Thank you so much for having us, this place is a hidden gem for sure! Can't wait to return ✨️”

“Had a spontaneous lunch at Gaucho today with a friend and our server, Mathew, was absolutely fantastic. He’s easily one of the best waiters I’ve ever had — warm, friendly, and genuinely attentive. He made sure we were comfortable and checked in throughout without ever being intrusive. His service really made our experience special, and I would highly recommend him to anyone dining here! Wishing you all the best Mathew!!”

“The Old ship is a classic lunch time spot in Richmond. They have a lot of space both down and upstairs, with the upstairs being an unbelievable event space. We come regularly for lunch and it never fails. As a gluten free man the cider battered fish and chips went down a treat, as well as the pint in the picture below ‘Bandit’. One of nicest gluten free pints I have had in years.”

“Atmosphere-superb. Food-superb. Customer service-superb. Deliberating where to have lunch, looking at the menu here when the waiter approached us. The warm welcome lured us in and we were not disappointed. Recommendations for drinks, a very well looked after 9 year old and plates finished. Not residents of London but frequent visitors. This place will be on our list to visit again. Check out their offers if you need a little push!”

“The best meal we have had during this visit. Maybe the best for over 20 years. Very complex dishes with multiple textures. I will be making the oxtail croquettes myself when I get home if I can recreate the crumb. The amazing poached pear dessert is well beyond my skill level.”

“This restaurant is awesome and the food is better than better. Awesome place to eat.”

“A private hire of the Richmond Royale - we had a fantastic trip from Richmond to Hampton Court and back over four hours. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Turks pointed us towards a few caterers - Chilibees made a selection of delicious canapes which were already on the boat for us when we were picked up. A beautiful day to be up on the top deck with a drink or two from the onboard bar, enjoying the river views. Thank you Turks, highly recommended!”

“I really like the cafe in the morning, they serve a good coffee and always fresh pastries/croissant etc. Plenty of other things such as sausages etc are available. Clean space with friendly staff. Plenty of seatings around. Good and accessible WCs. Free water fill machine.”

“Best food in West London. Good quality food, great atmosphere, and the best service I've experienced in a good while. Absolutely wonderful! The welcome and service was 1st class, the venue was lovely. Lamb Biryani, Butter chicken was just out of this world. so good! And further, everything is priced very reasonably, a rarity for this neighborhood in West London. Honestly the whole experience was fantastic. From start to finish,From food to drinks. Be sure to book a reservation. Highly recommended, You won’t be disappointed! We will definitely be back, Thank you Moreish Bites for a great dining experience.”

“Wonderful little brunch cafe with excellent food and friendly service! The cafe is nice, with a chilled out, relaxed feel to it. Lots of seating in the garden outside and some tables on the street at the front. The food is excellent. Very tasty. Full English was done very well with excellent quality sausages!”

“The food was delicious. Definitely worth trying”

“The best Italian restaurant in all of London. Exceptional service, wonderful food, pleasant atmosphere. It's my favorite restaurant.”

“I had an excellent experience at Matsuba in Richmond. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt calm, elegant, and welcoming — exactly what I expect from a proper Japanese restaurant. The service stood out immediately. The staff were attentive, polite, and efficient without ever feeling intrusive. I felt genuinely looked after the entire time. The food was outstanding. Every dish was fresh, balanced, and full of clean, precise flavours. You can tell the chefs know what they’re doing — the sushi was perfectly prepared, the hot dishes were rich and comforting, and everything arrived beautifully presented. It’s rare to find this level of consistency. Overall, I left impressed and fully satisfied. Matsuba delivered quality, service, and atmosphere at a very high level. I’ll definitely return.”

“Very cosy and warmth, table service available if not too busy, and deco amazing! I found my new favourite pub...! Good selection of drinks and an easy menu.”

“Lovely little gem in Putney! Beautifully cooked, genuine Spanish food is so hard to come by in London but this place nailed it. The waitress was super helpful at answering our questions and anything she couldn’t answer was directed to the owner who was cooking solo in the kitchen. Had a really nice chat with both of them when settling up the bill at closing. Will be back in the not too distant future to try the rest of the menu!”

“The new menu is amazing I had the trio of cheese cakes for my dessert and they were really great. My friend had the after eight chocolate parfait again the dessert was amazing. With the new menu offerings on the mains top all at great prices we were really impressed. We will be coming again.”

“Bengal Village has been my favourite takeaway for the 30 years I’ve lived in Richmond. Always absolutely delicious and lovely staff.”

“Wow. This is the best Chinese I've ever had. Trust me, I've tasted almost every Chinese in the UK, but this is by far the best. The quantity of the food is top-notch. Will defo go there again. Found this place through tiktok. Amazing food. Can't recommend enough. The only downside is, last time they ran out of the salt and pepper family box since it's their most popular item.”

“I ordered today on Uber eats and it was great. I really wanted good quality sushi, the melt in your mouth kind. The sushi was exactly that!. My little sister especially loved it. Thanks for your hard work :).”

“My friend and I had a wonderful time here for dinner and a few cocktails, we would recommend the pornstar martini or a margarita! The service from both Ciaran and Virenti was amazing credit to them for making our evening extra special!”

“It’s a very nice place for a cup of coffee. We sat inside, enjoy the view of nature through glass. The seating arrangement is spacious, feeling very relaxed after long walking in the Kew. Cappuccino is creamy and smooth. We ordered French fries but have to wait until 12:00, very generous size and fresh. Will definitely come again.”
