Food Served
12pm - 10pm
Ahoy! Step into one of Richmond’s oldest pubs, where wood-panelled walls, a double-sided bar and centuries of character set the scene for winter. Settle in for traditional British pub food, perfectly poured pints and some of Richmond’s biggest live sporting moments, or head upstairs for parties and private gatherings. Outside, our Lost at Sea courtyard keeps the good times rolling whatever the weather, thanks to its retractable roof. From Sunday roasts and winter drinks to Christmas celebrations and matchdays, there’s always a reason to come aboard.
Our kitchen is all about British pub classics done properly, using fresh, seasonal ingredients throughout the menu. Think comforting winter dishes, quality British meat and plates made for colder days, alongside the Sunday roasts we look forward to all week.
Whether it’s a midweek lunch, pre-match meal or a long Sunday around the table, come hungry.
Big game? You’ll want to be here. With Sky Sports, screens throughout the pub and a crowd that knows how to create an atmosphere, matchdays at our pub are something else.
Catch the action from the heart of the bar, settle upstairs with food or head out to Lost at Sea, where our covered courtyard screens mean the weather doesn’t get to call full time. With huge football fixtures and rugby season in full swing, grab a pint and get amongst it.
Step in from Richmond’s chilly streets and celebrate Christmas at one of the town’s most historic pubs. From festive lunches and Christmas drinks to end-of-year parties, our traditional pub and flexible upstairs spaces are made for getting everyone together.

Rugby season is back, and Richmond knows how to do matchday. Join us for the biggest Autumn Nations fixtures, shown across our screens with perfectly poured pints, proper pub food and the kind of crowd that makes every tackle, try and last-minute decision feel even bigger.
Heading to Twickenham? We’re just a short walk from Richmond Station, making us a brilliant place for pre-match food and pints before heading to the stadium, or stick around and watch every minute right here.
From birthdays and Christmas parties to work gatherings, meetings and private sports screenings, our upstairs spaces are ready for all sorts of occasions.
Choose from flexible private and semi-private areas with screens and layouts suited to seated dinners or standing drinks, or bring the spaces together for a bigger celebration. With the bar downstairs and Richmond Station a short walk away, getting everyone together couldn’t be easier.
Lost at Sea isn’t sailing away just because summer is over. Our nautical-inspired courtyard has a retractable roof, outdoor screens and heaters, and plenty of atmosphere, making it a brilliant spot for winter matchdays, group drinks and catching up over a pint.
Come rain or shine, settle beneath the roof, catch the biggest sporting fixtures and enjoy the feeling of being outdoors without having to brave everything the British weather throws at you.
