The 30 Best Restaurant bar in Kingston Upon Thames

“Had a fantastic meal here. The staff were warm and attentive without being pushy, and the food was absolutely delicious. Portion sizes were generous and everything came out quickly and fresh, chef Ahmed is very attentive and truly talented. I’ll definitely be coming back.”

“Best fish and chips around, great quality, friendly staff”

“We had a wonderful experience at To Kefi! The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. A special thank you to our waitress Romina, who was so sweet and kind — she looked after us and our two girls beautifully. She even arranged for the chef to make some pasta for our little one, which we really appreciated. Thanks also to the chef for going out of her way! Excellent service and lovely people — we’ll definitely be back!”

“We had a great mother's Day lunch here. The staff was very accommodating and friendly to our large group with young children. Food has a very homemade feel to it. The seafood tagliatelle was fantastic and so were the cocktails. Rissotto and steak dishes left much to be desired. Nonetheless - overall a good experience”

“Good food！the drink and desert is so beautiful and attentive. The food is also very delicious, and the atmosphere in the restaurant is very good. The staff inside is super enthusiastic and friendly, and the recommended dishes and wine are so impressive. I really like it!”

“Did the unlimited tapas, and paid the extra £5 for the full range of items. Our server was excellent, I cannot remember his name but he was very friendly! We were also in the time range for happy hour, so we got two 2-for-1 cocktails each alongside our meal. We then had about 4 rounds of food, which saved us about £100ish in total. My stand out dishes were the cheese breads with the garlic, the hot honey halloumi, the popcorn squid, the black bean quesadillas, and also the chicken wings were excellent!”

“We visited here on a Saturday around 3pm for a celebration dinner. We booked in advance for inside seating. There is outside seating which is perfect on a sunny date as right next to the river. The staff were very welcoming and helpful with their recommendations for food and drinks. We all opted for three courses, they do have weekend set Menus which is worth a look. All the meals arrived in perfect timing, they gave enough time between each meal so it wasn’t rushed. Everything was cooked beautifully and a really enjoyable meal. We will definitely be visiting again!”

“Lovely pub with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff are friendly and always ready to help, offering great recommendations for drinks. The food is delicious, with generous portions and plenty of flavour. There’s a wide variety of beers and other liquors to choose from, so there’s something for everyone. A great spot for a relaxed and enjoyable time!,”

“Went here for my sisters birthday, we normally go Persian palace but as we are in the area, we thought to give this place a try. Service is as amazing, can’t remember the name of the waitress but she was professional, helpful and offered suggestions. Food was good, service good, chocolate cake was good and it was in a great location.”

“Thank you to the staff for being gracious tonight when one of our party unexpectedly experienced a medical issue. We are very grateful for local places who care about local people. Food was top notch and the service was great. Thanks!”

“I specifically wanted to compliment your door staff. They were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they are the main reason my friends and I chose to enter the venue. Their professionalism and positive attitude made a fantastic first impression. Thank you for providing such a great experience.”

“What an incredible find five minutes walk from the town centre. Very tastefully decorated in a minimalistic fashion. Everything looked freshly refurbished. The bedroom and en suite bathroom looked as though they had been recently decorated and were very nicely done. No expense had been spared. My only complaints were that the upstairs hallway was unbearably hot and nobody attended to the room whilst we were out. Nonetheless, we had a wonderful stay here. The available food was unusual and not as described on their website so be aware but it was still tasty and served its purpose of filling us up before we went out. There is onsite parking which consisted of two spaces and a disabled bay so they will be allocated on a first come first served basis. I believe that there is public parking nearby but cannot confirm.”

“Came in for lunch,which was really good and great price. Then found there was a shufl board and had fun playing. Half an hour for £8. Joey was really helpful and friendly. And was really good with all his customers.”

“Fantastic hotel in a quaint part of London. Was surprised to see that there we many restaurants around and a large variety of shops. Also, Andreina at the front desk was absolutely fantastic in helping us ensure that we had everything we needed for our stay. She was very accommodating and understanding of our travel requirements. Would highly recommend this hotel.”

“We had lunch here on a Monday. The food and service were excellent, and the restaurant modern. We would recommend it. Our starters were good, then for main I had the "dirty burger" (cheese and bacon burger) and my wife had the chicken breast, both excellent. The waitress found out it was my birthday and decorated my banoffee pie pudding accordingly (she even did a solo singing effort!). Excellent. Kids meals looked good value, so we will be going back with them. Friday they were advertising a £1 Flat White offer, so would be worth checking that out too if you just fancy a coffee.”

“Just had an excellent meal from Tasty Bite on Surbiton Road. The food was fresh, flavorful, and delivered quickly. I've tried their peri-peri grilled chicken with coloured rice , and they've both been fantastic. The staff is always friendly and generous especially (Hamidi), and it's a great spot for a delicious takeaway. They are open until 1:00 am. Highly recommend!"”

“Recently stayed here for its fantastic location near to the station and all amenities, staff were extremely helpful and considerate going above and beyond. It’s cheap and cheerful and very clean as you would expect. When I couldn’t figure out how to work the elevator key one kind lady offered to come up with me to demonstrate. Others were also very approachable and more than happy to offer assistance. It’s so rare to find kind and responsive team members these days, they really made my stay and made us feel so welcome. Thank you to all the staff at Kingston Travelodge, it was truly a pleasure!”

“Amazing hidden gem, lovely restaurant and good service, a definite must visit!”

“Delicious food, quick service, central location (hidden away). We’ve had the carbonara, spinach & ricotta ravioli, crab ravioli, black spaghetti with seafood*, lemon & prawn linguine*, black seafood risotto and wild boar ravioli. All were super tasty. Also the feta with honey is so good. Great selection of juices, smoothies, coffee. Delighted to realise Nakos is now open in the evenings for dinner too! And dog friendly. (*see photos). Nakos has become my favourite place to eat in Kingston!”

“Honestly hands down for another GREAT roast I’ve had in England. And the fact I got a table on the day was even more surprising. The pudding it’s the best I had so far!!! I can’t thank enough to the staff politeness.”

“Had an amazing dinner at Roz Ana! Someone had recommended this place to us previously, so we decided to head there when the craving for Indian food hit, and it far exceeded our expectations. It was our first time trying momos, and we were thoroughly impressed by how well the spices blended together. The skin of the momos had a lovely texture — it wasn’t too tough or doughy — and the dipping sauce complemented them perfectly. The other dishes we ordered were equally good and flavourful. I particularly enjoyed the chicken tikka Laphroaig masala (hope I got the spelling right), which paired beautifully with the naans. The fried fish (amritsari macchi) was another highlight, with its crisp, tasty batter. The fish was fresh, with none of the taste or smell of overused oil that you sometimes encounter elsewhere. Overall, it was a wonderful meal and experience at Roz Ana. I’ll definitely be returning!”

“The finest slow-cooked beef rib I have ever encountered. This dish was a revelation: perfectly succulent, masterfully cooked, and bursting with depth of flavor. An absolutely unforgettable plate. I would wholeheartedly recommend this establishment to everyone.”

“Cafe Marsa Charcoal Grill + Wafflemeister offers a delightful culinary experience. The spicy hummus provided a flavorful start, while the omelette and shakshuka showcased a perfect blend of textures and spices. The veggie breakfast was a refreshing and well-balanced choice. Special mention goes to the impeccable service, adding a welcoming touch to the overall dining pleasure.”

“We popped in during the week around lunch time. Great pub, chilled vibes - they were playing vinyl LPs, great garden and opposite the park. Great beer selection and decent hot dog. Half price between 12 and 3pm, bonus!”

“Chase Lodge Hotel is a hidden gem, a wonderful place to stay away from the hustle and bustle of Central London. Lovely rooms, fantastic breakfast and great service from Denise, who is a very kind host.”

“We were walking along the riverfront and looking for a place to have a few drinks. None of the usual bars caught our eye, but the cocktail mene here did, so we went in. I have had the burgers before, and they are delicious, but I was pleasantly surprised by the cocktails too. The vibe and atmosphere was great too! Not just a good burger joint;)”

“This is a fantastic takeaway/delivery spot with really high quality dishes at reasonable prices, staff are friendly and helpful and service is really quick, they have a great range of authentic dishes.”

“A great family run pub with lovely, personable staff and amazing food! They really went above and beyond to cater to the vegan and vegetarian members of our party - the curry in particular was delicious! A brilliant meal in the sunshine on their lovely terrace!”
