Quick lunch options in Richmond

“Found this place after a disaster of cancelled orders and thank god we did! The food was incredibly tasty! Lamb was flaking beautifully and I’m not someone that typically goes for lamb. The chicken was flavoursome and juicy and tender. The saag paneer was excellent. Everything was well packed, HOT so no need to re heat and it was so lovely receiving some popodoms and chutney. Will defy e ordering from here again and will be recommending to others!”

“Nestled near the serene Kew Gardens, Café Macarong is a cozy gem that delivers a delightful mix of comfort food with a modern twist. The menu boasts an array of crowd-pleasers, including dupbap (a Korean rice bowl topped with flavorful ingredients), poke rice, and crispy fried chicken, all crafted with care and bursting with flavor. During our visit, we ordered the beef dupbap, salmon poke, and tuna poke, and each dish was a standout. The beef dupbap was hearty and satisfying, with tender beef layered over perfectly cooked rice, elevated by the café’s signature wasabi soybean sauce that added a subtle, savory kick. The salmon and tuna poke bowls were equally impressive, with fresh, vibrant ingredients harmonized by a spicy mayonnaise dressing that brought just the right amount of heat and creaminess. Every bite felt balanced and thoughtfully prepared, showcasing the kitchen’s knack for blending bold flavors with comfort. To top it all off, we sipped on their latte, which was surprisingly excellent—smooth, well-balanced, and the perfect complement to the meal. The inviting ambiance and friendly service only added to the experience, making Café Macarong a must-visit for anyone craving comforting yet elevated dishes near Kew Gardens. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of their menu!”

“Absolutely fab cafe. Peaceful but should be much much busier given how great the Scrambled on toast was. And lovely coffee too. Will return.”

“Great new cafe in Richmond (where Patisserie Valerie used to be). Excellent coffee and healthy takeaway lunches. Cocktails available too apparently. A new favourite.”

“This was my first time dining here, and I was impressed with the quality of my meal. The staff were friendly, the service was speedy, and the atmosphere was relaxed but vibrant. I would recommend Kurk Grill Bar for a light evening meal and catch-up with friends. The portions are just right, so one felt sufficiently satisfied and not over-full, and the prices were more than reasonable.”

“I visited Pizza Express in East Sheen recently, and overall, it was a solid dining experience. We started with the classic Dough Balls – always a winner – soft and warm, with plenty of garlic butter. For mains, I went with the American, which had a nice kick and crispy thin crust. The service was friendly and fairly quick. The Staff were attentive and child friendly. My kids enjoyed the Piccolo menu. I would surely go back – especially with their seasonal offers and kids eat free deals.”

“M&S Café in Richmond Park is the perfect place to take a break after a stroll in the beautiful park. The café offers a great selection of freshly made sandwiches, cakes, and, of course, excellent coffee. The setting is clean and comfortable, with plenty of seating and large windows that let in natural light. The customer service is exceptional—staff are friendly, attentive, and always greet you with a smile. They go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need, which adds a personal touch to the experience. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or relaxing with a coffee, it’s always a pleasant visit.”

“We were delighted with the service extended by the staff of this Starbucks. Eugene served us and he was pleasant and friendly, totally reminding us what Starbucks is all about. I needed some hot water and he was kind enough to ask me what size of cup I wanted and even gave a cup cover. The Christmas selections are excellent particularly the Egg Nog latte and Iced Chocolate Mousse Latte. A big thank you to Eugene and the rest of the team for making our short visit delightful.”

“My daughters and I love our Starbucks drinks !!! We are really glad that Pumpkin Spice Lattes have made a return for Autumn and I love the Chai Latte drinks that you do. The Loyalty App is also really good for earning free drinks !!”

“Been to this branch many times. Each time the pizza was ready in under 10 mins. Nearby Waitrose is also very convenient. Staff are polite and helpful. A shame that the Putney branch closed though.”

“Great small store. Clerk was so helpful and kind to my boys.”

“Here I came across fresh bananas. I recommend to buy only X5 bananas. Although packed. But they're fresh. The best bananas are. Which are half green and a little yellow. But even full yellow are great.”

“Superb Chinese food. Not at all greasy. Just delicious, and quite cheap too.”
