Unique dining experiences in Richmond

“Exceptional quality and service! From the moment I walked into Richmond Kitchens, the whole experience was a pleasure. The end result is a beautiful kitchen that’s genuinely beyond what I expected. They use Leicht kitchens, which are absolutely stunning — top quality and fully bespoke to your space. There’s also a huge range of worktops and appliances to choose from, so it really feels tailored to you. Matt’s design was brilliant. He made the most of the space and adapted the plan seamlessly to fit with the building work, including new windows and doors. The installation was on time, done to perfection and any small follow-up bits were sorted quickly and efficiently. I spoke to a few other local suppliers before deciding but it was the quality and level of service that drew me to Richmond Kitchens and they completely delivered.”

“Picked this venue for a coffee after reading the great reviews and was not disappointed. Don't be fooled by the modest entrance, the shop is a visual cornucopia of artistic delights. The drinks arrived in cute, hand painted cups and saucers, with small wooden spoons and the coffees adorned with coffee art. We sat and took in all the amazing decor which was for sale: cups, small serving dishes, bags, spoons, a menagerie of small crocheted animals with some in key ring form plus so much more. It was a feast for the eyes and brain to take in everything that was on display. The coffee was equally good and hope to try one of the cakes next time. An absolute joy for the senses and would highly recommend.”

“Went here for brunch and really enjoyed their portion sizes and their wide variety of brunch/breakfast options. Their full English breakfast was great value for money and was really filling and great portion sizes. The bacon was crisp and their sausages weren’t too greasy which was a perfect combination. Would highly recommend their brunch for anyone in the area. Their fresh juices were a great complement to the brunch.”

“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 ✨️”

“I went to The Princess Head for a Sunday roast, mainly because it was featured in the American TV series Ted Lasso, and I’ve been exploring the hidden gems of London lately. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much from the food since touristy spots can be hit or miss, but wow… it completely blew me away. We ordered both the chicken roast and the lamb roast. Both were delicious, though slightly on the expensive side. I had the lamb roast, and it was beyond words; beautifully tender, literally falling off the bone, with rich, velvety gravy, golden roast potatoes cooked to perfection, and creamy cauliflower cheese that tied everything together. The chicken roast was fantastic too, but the lamb was definitely the star of the show. The ambience was warm and inviting, full of charm, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout. You’ll spot quite a few American tourists enjoying the vibe, which adds to the lively, welcoming feel of the place. To top it off, the pub sits right opposite a beautiful little park, and the surrounding street has that quintessential English charm, dotted with small shops selling things related to the show. All in all, it’s the kind of spot that makes you fall in love with London all over again, a true gem I’d highly recommend! ✨”

“The pizza was very fresh and tasty. Kus gave us good information about the pizzas since we were vegetarian and we went with his suggestions which was delicious. Definitely order the Tiramisu. It was homemade and super fresh. Must try place if you’re in Richmond.”

“Very good food and we were given a free water very friendly staff who were there to help”

“I was visiting Kingston from out of town and popped in for a quick bite to eat. Great customer service, and the food was absolutely delicious. Will be coming back with a book for a nice cup of coffee when I’m next in Kingston.”

“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.”

“Lovely little jewel of a cinema tucked off the centre of Richmond. Very friendly and helpful staff. Will definitely visit again in the near future.”

“I had an absolutely fantastic experience at Zizzi Richmond today, thanks to Roland and the team! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and well taken care of. Roland was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure every detail of my dining experience was perfect. I also have to mention the pizza—honestly, it was amazing! Perfectly cooked, with the right amount of toppings, and full of flavor. It was one of the best pizzas I've had in a while! Highly recommend this location if you're in the area. Thanks again, Roland, for making my visit so enjoyable. I’ll definitely be back!”

“What a lovely and amazing place. The dining rooms are as beautiful as the food. Its however more expensive than a Michelin starred restaurant. £394 for 4 of us. So control the drinking! Loved the litre of sicilian lemonade, reminded me of Glastonbury lemonade carts. My only little gripe, was it was winter, I had a long coat, and the host should have taken our coats as there is only a dirt floor and your coat tails trail in the dust. They eventually came to hang it up in their cloakroom”

“Absolutely authentic Thai food, felt just like in Thailand. The service was super good too, extremely friendly and the prices are reasonable. A place surely worth recommending, we will come back!”

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

“Enjoyed lunch today at the Watermans.The food was really excellent and the portions were very generous.The pub has recently been renovated and they have done a really great job on the decor and ambience. We came here under the First Table offer so the meal was excellent value.The staff were delightful and we thoroughly enjoyed our time at the gastro pub. We will definitely come again and can’t recommend it highly enough!”

“Had a lovely stay. The room was great, such a comfy bed and air conditioning was great. The spa was amazing especially loved the garden really unique and made our stay memorable. Food was great also even though we ordered super late!! Whole place smells amazing as well. Friendly staff also.”

“Nice ambience and deco. Wonderful service, prompt and courteous. Food was amazing and coffee was smashing!”

“An excellent restaurant with brilliant service and great sanitation. We felt looked after and safe the entire evening! Food was one of the best we have had in London. We got the aloo tiki chaat, papdi chat, salmon, shashlik and terichelly prawns for the starter and we were blown away by the authentic flavours. My favourite would have to be the aloo tiki chaat and the prawns. Everything tasted fresh and tender with perfectly balanced flavours. For the main meal, we got the methi gobi, chettinad, butter chicken and dal makhani with rice, naan and paratha; all were superb! There was a range of spice levels and something for everyone in the family, veg and non-veg. The portions were a great size and the presentation of the food and drinks made the evening even better. I am normally quite particular and uncompromising about food but I have never been so impressed. We will definitely revisit many more times in the future.”

“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 have been visiting this Kokoro for months and I have NEVER been disappointed with the quality of the food and the service. The food is fresh made on the day and they often make the sushi for my daughter and I when they don’t have ready. The employees are kind and friendly. I highly recommend!”

“We recently purchased a sofa from this company and I have to say, I am incredibly impressed with their customer service. We have been greeted by salesperson and from the moment we walked into the store, we were greeted by friendly and knowledgeable staff who were more than happy to help me find the perfect sofa for my home. Throughout the process, they were patient and attentive, answering all of my questions and offering expert advice on everything from fabric choices to sizing. They even went above and beyond to help me with delivery and assembly, ensuring that my new sofa was set up exactly how I wanted it. Overall, I can't recommend this company enough for their outstanding customer service. They truly care about their customers and it shows in every interaction. Thank you, for making our sofa buying experience such a positive one! Finally, the sofa was delivered two weeks ago and the people were fantastic. They did a great job by delivering the sofa with care and putting them together. Thank you.”

“Every time I go to Richmond I can’t miss my appointment with the best pizza in London!! Michele the owner is always very friendly and his pizza can get very addictive!! Thank you I hope I’ll see you soon. Highly recommended to Pizza lovers ❤️”

“Lovely hidden gem! Best Persian food in town. I have been a couple of times and particularly love their mirza with their home made bread, their leek soup, and their home made cakes! Oh the pomegranate jelly is to die for! A must try!”

“Extremely good quality food and generous portions. I'm a minicab driver, have eaten from a lot of places and this is one of the best!”

“By far the best pub in Richmond. We regularly go to the Mitre, as they serve really fresh cask ales that change regularly. They also serve fantastic pizza’s where you can choose your own toppings or have the monthly special. We often get the dough balls as they are the perfect accompaniment to a few pints! Definitely get down there if your in the area!”

“We took our dog here for the first time...it was excellent! She's a bit shy but the staff were professional and kept her calm. The groom was honestly one the best we've had. I highly recommend them.”

“The food was amazing especially the miso aubergine. Great service. Definitely going back! The vibe here is very cosy, great for date night or chilling after a long day. Although it can get booked pretty fast even on weekdays.”

“We had an incredible experience at this small family-run Lebanese restaurant! The owners were exceptionally friendly, guiding us through the menu and suggesting delightful dishes. The variety of both meat and vegetarian options allowed us to savor an array of flavors. The cozy atmosphere and fresh, delicious food make it a must-try spot. A gem in the culinary scene!”
