Local services in Richmond

“We booked a table for 5 and were lucky enough to be served by Michael who was kind and attentive. The food was amazing. Most of us had pizza which was fresh and delicious. The younger members also enjoyed the delicious gelato afterwards. We look forward to returning again”

“Sat a outside on a cute street with lots of small village charm. This is an adorable petit French bistro! Unfortunately the chicken dish was out, so I opted for the vegetarian item of the day. It's was delicious. I started with the French onion soup, per recommendations. It was good, but I regret not trying something else. Highly recommend stopping by after a visit to Kew!”

“This is one of the best restaurants we have been to in London. The staff were lovely and the food was absolutely fantastic. The use of spices was incredible, if you order the potatoes (Aloo Tuk) you will spend the entire meal trying to figure out what they are seasoned with. Absolute magic. Do yourself a favour and get yourself here, you won’t be disappointed.”

“Outstanding service. Alloways in Putney helped me find the size of wood which would work best for my home project, then cut my wood to my amateur measurements, and finally taped it all up so it was easy to carry. Couldn't have asked for more. The bodge joinery is all down to me and, as professional joiners will have noticed, there's a lot of teak stain/varnish to compensate :0).”

“Lovely restaurant with great atmosphere. Service was exceptional -particularly Julie who looked after us so well. Our evening was a delight and the best pasta we have had for a long time. Even our picky two year old cleared her plate! Will definitely make this a regular visit.”

“It was such a delight to experience the festive afternoon tea here at The Petersham. The staff and service were excellent and were attentive, the atmosphere was great, I especially loved the magical Snow effect. It was nice to eat delicious food with a lovely view. I highly recommend!”

“This place deserves much higher review points. Everything is perfect. Literally perfect It has been around many years. Feels so cosy with carpet and cushion decoration. Lighting and music really on point and good. Really helpful staff. Enough time between the meals. Had beef tartare and tempura squid and prawn as a starter. Burger and beef stroganoff for main. Cost around £60 per person inc service charge which is really reasonable for the quality they are providing. Thanks”

“I worked in London for about two years and was staying near Tangawizi. I ate there a couple times a week many many times over that two year time frame. I absolutely love it there. The food is phenomenal and always has the highest quality ingredients. The service is exceptional as well. Eight years later, we returned to the UK for my 60th birthday and I wanted to visit them again due to the fond memories I had. Our dinner this evening was just as phenomenal as ever. The flavors and freshness of the ingredients was incredible. The King tandoori shrimp are a favorite of mine and I literally got another order for dessert rather than a normal dessert. They thought I was joking when I ordered it for dessert! I travel frequently for business and have had the opportunity to eat at many phenomenal restaurants and they are at the top of the list with the best! I’m so happy they made it through the pandemic and now celebrating 20 years. I would highly recommend Tangawizi!”

“I’ve been a frequent visitor here over the years. Raj and the team are absolutely lovely - welcoming and kind. The chefs are rightly proud of their flavoursome creations. The menu changes often - to tickle your taste buds, but old favourites are always available. The food is fresh, perfectly cooked and tremendously tasty. I highly recommend a visit - you will not be disappointed.”

“The staff of this hotel is the best! You feel at home! A real warm customer care. The breakfast is delicious. And the hotel is small and beautiful. You feel welcome in the fabulous Richmond! Thanks and hope to see you again! Francesco”

“It’s great to be able to enjoy such delicious curry rice at such a cheap price. The staff are also friendly and polite. I’ll definitely come again.”

“Restaurant serves delicious Indian food. Their Tawa Paneer and Butter naan are scrumptious. Service was good and the restaurant owner is exceptionally Kind and friendly!”

“The food was amazing . Specially the chicken biryani. The chicken was so tender and soft, just fell off the bone. The staff was also very friendly and hard working.”

“Fabulous service, foods and fresh tasty coffee's from an independent cafe in a super location which helps lots of lovely young people increase their confidence and experience in the community. Brilliant management thank you for your work with Cafe Sunshine.”

“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!”

“Very nice little cafe, service is unbelievably fast an yet you don’t feel rushed. The food quality and quantity was just right and for the location it was extremely well priced. Very nice inside and the decor is very traditional and inviting. I would recommend to anyone looking for some light lunch or breakfast.”

“I've been eating and taking away from this restaurant almost from the time I moved to Putney 57 years ago. Thetford has always been delicious, the service unfailingly professional but friendly and the portions more than generous. I love it.”

“A sensational afternoon tea experience. The teas were unusual and delicious. The food, both savory and sweet, was freshly made, and of superior quality. Topping it all off, an elegant yet understated atmosphere with friendly, attentive service. A special thanks to the sweet blonde waitress who helped us with our language skills with uncommon patience and attention.”

“Very tasty food and pleasant service! Thank you very much! I will come back to you again”

“Well Heeellllloooooo All Bar One :) where have you been?? cannot remember one that had such good food, service, decor! Don't want to say something negative about food or other things at other locations, but seriously the service here is AMAZING!!! Friendly and attentive. Food was beautiful and tasted it as well. Good music doesn't hurt either :)”

“It was a stupidly hot late June day and as we were traveling back from Hampton Court Palace, we met a local whose parents also happened to be staying at the same hotel (The Selwyn) as us. We were on the last leg of four straight weeks of international travel and safari…we were EXHAUSTED and wanted a good simple dinner super close to the hotel and The Red Cow was recommended to us. The bartender was awesome, but made my day when he noticed how hot and tired we looked and brought me a pint glass filled to the brim with ice, to go with my fruity cider I was trying. Divine! Small gesture, big impact. Enjoyed a delicious dinner, football match on the tv, and we’d stay here instead of The Selwyn next visit. Also, don’t recall the name of this drink he recommended, but it was perfect at the end of a long, hot day. Thank you!”

“Wedding venue We got married at the Bingham Riverhouse in Richmond on the 18th of October and couldn’t have wished for a more perfect day. We chose the winter wedding package, and everything from start to finish was beautifully organised. Laure was absolutely wonderful – calm, patient, and so responsive throughout the whole planning process. She explained everything clearly, gave fantastic advice, and it was lovely to have her there on the day with her calm, kind and reassuring manner. The venue looked stunning, with the room very professionally set up and the riverside location providing a beautiful backdrop. The food was exceptional – so many of our guests commented on how delicious it was and how smoothly the whole day ran. The fire pit, hot chocolate, and mulled wine were the perfect added touches for an autumn wedding. A huge thank you to Laure, Sherry, and the entire team at the Bingham Riverhouse for making our wedding day so special. Everything was flawless, and we’ll remember the day for years to come. Sara and Simon Galea”

“We came here for dinner via the Fork. Place is close to Richmond station with free parking nearby after 4:30pm. We got the poppadum. We had the pani puri, sheekh kebab and paneer tikka. All were great with a kick to it. For the main we got Lamb saag and chicken curry with naan and rice. The food was quite spicy and flavourful. Bill was around £55 which is reasonable.”

“We got a takeaway for a family of 6. We love the huge portions, and generous amount of chips. Really cannot fault anything... It is also very nice that they also offer grilled options, on top of their selection of battered deep-fried goodies. Everything is delicious!”

“Surprised to have set lunch menu at weekend. Excellent food with affordable price, £24.5 for 2 courses and 27.5 for 3 courses. The staff is friendly.”

“We came for a "proper Sunday roast" and it did not disappoint! The food was phenomenal and service equally wonderful. We split a beef roast, mussels and smoked salmon pate for our family of 3. We finished with the Christmas pudding. It was more than enough and each dish was spot on! The staff were friendly and attentive and the ambiance was everything one would hope for an English pub. Highly recommend!”

“We had our Work Christmas Lunch on 18/12/2025, the Christmas menu was AMAZING! Plenty of food on the plate, we ordered some extra trimmings, which wasn't necessarily needed but definitely happy we had them as the food was sooo good we just could stop eating! Service was friendly and the whole lunch was a success. All my team commented afterwards how great the Christmas Lunch was this year. Thank you very much!”

“Absolutely LOVELY staff. We come here regularly, even when we don't need to buy anything for our pets - my kids love looking at the animals. Always made to feel welcome and always pleasantly surprised at how friendly and knowledgeable the staff are.”

“Absolutely wonderful food and fantastic service. Mancef (hope I've spelt it correctly!) Is the perfect host. Prawns were cooked to perfection and the Tabula salad fresh and crisp and bursting with flavour. The atmosphere is relaxed and accomodating. Thank you for making our weekend :)”

“A hidden gem. We had our reunion lunch here a couple of weeks ago. we have been doing this for a number of years and the food is always fantastic, service quick and friendly and always a great atmosphere . How they can offer, to a large group, such a great range of meals to such a high standard is beyond me. We have already booked for next year !”
