The Roebuck - Richmond

A great little find just outside the Richmond entrance to Richmond Park. Was a well-earned find after a 17km to and around the park. The fort was not the standard pub fare and they offer a wide selection. Pub was clean and the antique pictures on the wall complemented the proximity to the park. Would definitely go back again. It’s outside the ron so not over-run with people.

Cosy pub indoors and the perfect place to grab a drink for sitting outside enjoying the views, highly recommend on a sunny day

This is an historic pub with some unbeatable views across the countryside. The pub was clean and for a Greene King pub, the real ale choice was extensive. The beer I had was well kept and at the appropriate temperature. The service from one staff member was unusual and I did find customers weren't necessarily getting treated with the respect they perhaps warranted from her. However, maybe it was a one off as the pub is otherwise well reviewed, is listed in the Good Beer Guide and has won numerous awards. I understand the food is excellent and perhaps with managerial oversight the experience would have been entirely positive. [in fairness to the pub's response to this review, I've upped my review score, I like honesty and integrity!

Lovely pub with a great view over Petersham Water Meadows and River Thames. Was surprised at how quiet it was but it is still these Covid times. Beer great but didn't have anything to eat so can't comment on that side.

Pub lunch of the best sort. We had fish and chips and the kidney and steak pie...both fabulous. Chunky chips crisp and moist. Onion gravy for the mashed potato served in its own little skillet to keep the sauce hot and the pie dry. Wilted green cabbage on the side... just so. Loved it. Thank you.
