Cornerstone Kingston in Kingston upon Thames

Nice friendly pub, good for sports with plenty of room for even the big games. Staff are always nice, and it's a good alternative to the spoons across the road.

I popped in while Xmas shopping last week with friends and ordered lunch. The food was amazing, everything tasted so good, service was fantastic. I was told a new manager had taken over you can definitely tell he’s changing things for the better

We are going with our football fan, a 7 years old kid. This pub is kids friendly, bright interior, clean and nice decor, fab food. We managed to have a very good view of TV each time, definitely will go again.

We visited this place on a Sunday (peak time) and it was extremely filthy, dirty. We went to organise a birthday get-together but shortly left for the place being so untidy and in chaos. I don't think anyone would want to eat at this place! I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Good vibe, cheap cocktails, friendly staff

My mate and I stopped by and had early dinner on Tuesday. Everything was great, the guy behind the counter was friendly and welcoming, the girl who served food was also pleasent. Food was nice and puddings were great. Highly recommend this place and will be back again.

Had a very enjoyable meal with my wife - the staff were great.

Amazing food and staff are so friendly

Brandon the manager was extremely helpful, he sorted out the drinks and brought us the food, top lad

Lovely pub. The bar tenders are great always up for a good conversation and a laugh. Food is tasty and quick. This is by far my favourite pub in Kingston. Nice pool table with good cues, 2 shuffle boards and darts.

Lovely pub with great atmosphere, games, drinks, and food!

First time in the pub, very classy for a pub, child friendly and couldn't believe the prices, drinks and food. Definitely coming back

I had a great time here. The staff were amazing, specially Brandon!

Great service and atmosphere! New management Brandon and Richard have really turned the place around!

Lovely new staff - seems to be getting back on track !

Came in today and was served by Brandon who was absolutely amazing. 10/10 service.

Jess and sandy were great, will be coming back again

Caucasian worker was very nice and engaging, always checking to see if we're enjoying our experience. He definitely deserves a raise.

Came to watch an international rugby game and wasn’t disappointed. Bar staff was lovely and vibes were immaculate. Would definitely recommend.

Brandon & Sandy have been amazing all night. Being short staffed they really put the extra work in to accommodate us. So much respect to them and love there work. Meitaki Ma'ata 🤙🏼

This is the second time visiting the cornerstone in Kingston and it was the worst pub experience we have ever encountered! Oh apart from the Charming Bar man that was covering from the sister pub the Earl Beaty. On reflection we arrived at 14:00 which in pub hours this is a quiet period and it was. We ordered our drinks which was 2 pints of larger and a bottled cider almost £20!!! After sipping my Peroni it tasted odd. I ordered a pint of fosters and it was definitely a pale ale so I spoke to the bar man and he poured me another and it was pale ale again!!! Obviously wrong beer connected to the wrong tap? We ordered food and I had the rump steak which was the worst steak I’ve ever had! May have been Microwaved as no grill marks and was incredibly chewy. After we ate I asked for a milk for my daughter which was an option on the kids menu! None available. After nearly spending £100 we will not be returning and I feel sorry for the bad man having to deal with the disgusting customers who were clearly off the heads on god knows what at 2pm on a Thursday afternoon-screaming and shouting at each other. 1/10

Wanted to leave a positive review as we visited yesterday afternoon, not busy and although due to a staff shortage we couldn't eat straightaway we were happy playing shuffleboard with our drinks while we waited. A huge thanks to Sam who let us play beyond our 30 minutes and pointed out a deal on the menu I hadn't spotted when we ordered our food - which was lovely by the way. We enjoyed our visit and again, thanks Sam for looking after us.

The team at cornerstone are very friendly and welcoming. The drink prices and shuffleboard were a hit!

We were made to feel really welcome and the service was excellent. Had a great time playing shuffleboard! Highly recommended.

Amazing service from the manager brandon

We had a fantastic time playing shuffleboard, and the cheese and bacon burger was absolutely delicious! We brought our English bulldog along, and the pub was incredibly dog-friendly, with water bowls and treats available. Jordan and Brandon were both super welcoming and attentive, making the experience even better. Highly recommend this spot for a fun, relaxed outing!

Great atmosphere for sports. Also has the best shuffleboard board in south west London. Play here every 2 weeks

Great quick food , great barman , 5 stars

Great place, good food, very nice atmosphere, helpful attentive staff, lots of screens to watch sport, 2 electronic dart boards with various games £15 for 1 hours play, 2 shuffle boards £8 for 30mins or £15 for 1 hour, 1 pool table.

Beautiful well kept clean pub with various comfortable seating options was served by a very polite and friendly lady who put up with my many questions very patiently. My company was also kindly greeted on entry by the pubs manager Brandon who brought out the food we ordered which was incredible, was closer to gourmet than what you'd expect from pub food season to perfection will definitely be returning.

Love this little place. Great location for an after work pint. Usually on the quiet side except for student nights. Friendly staff and nice food. What more would you ask for?

Really great customer service and the games were fun!

High impressed by the staff and their enthusiasm and environment the service is great and would highly recommend and will be returning soon

Pudding was OK till I was half way through and found a piece of I don't know what was offered another but my appetite had left got a refund for the puddings but I won't be hurrying back

Pub is amazing. Harshita is the best

Great staff great beers and great food Especially Harshita as she is amazing

Excellent service , really friendly staff! Drinks are cheapest in town too!!

Great friendly staff! Jess and Liv are great!

What a pub and amazing staff with a great smiles, an amazing selection of pub games and an amazing range of sport on the TVs from football to the NFL cannot rate this pub highly enough and the food was amazing especially the small plates the salt and pepper chicken!!! Thank you cornerstone keep up the amazing job you guys are doing

Quite honestly, o e of the worst pubs in Kingston (that I've been to) and extremely expensive drinks. Asked for a large apple jouce, came and it was tiny.for £3.10. Could have got 3 cartons in Tesco opposite for that. Service terrible. Rude staff. Standing waiting, girl behind bar asked who was next and we had been, but a drunk old man pushed in. It is the bartenders job to mentally note who arrives at the bar and at what point. Just rude and useless staff. Not nice atmosphere either. Sticky tables. Food, average. We won't be returning.

Recently came for a birthday evening. 🎂. I haven't been to this pub since 2017, and it has really changed. Some of the seating area has been replaced with shuffle board and pool tables which is a really great edition. Bar staff were fun and friendly. Still lots of tvs with sports on if you're in to that.

Nice staff. Food was good. Got there it wasnt too busy and service was good.

I'm confused how we came to the overall 3 star review... As you can see from our rating everything is 1 star. We would like to draw your attention to the quality of food; imagine waking up and grabbing a one day old McDonald's from the fridge. I'm pretty sure they got the wings off of a 90 year old corpse. Just endure it and go to The Tun for a fraction of the price.

Great pub that has everything you want.

Fu for the kids on a rainy day.

Amazing service! Efficient staff : Seemant, Tomas, Harshita and their team ! Food and drinks are very decently priced ! Darts and other games are available. Multiple screens playing different different games . I enjoyed watching cricket World Cup final 2024 .

Cornerstone Kingston provides excellent customer service, thanks to Seemant. He is welcoming, knowledgeable, and attentive, making each visit enjoyable. His personalized recommendations and attention to detail truly enhance the dining experience. Highly recommend!

Manager is really friendly and the staff are helpful

We had such great service today from Thomas/Tomas today . What a credit he is to this establishment. So warm and welcoming. It was my boyfriends birthday and he really made him feel special. Watching him make the espresso martinis with such care and evident pride was a delight. Thank you so much

Corner stone has been my regular drink place. We have had plenty of celebration there with your wonderful service and amazing staff. Mr. Seemant has always greeted us and given extra attention whenever we are there. One of the reasons we go there is because of his exceptional service.

I had a great visit here for a friends birthday drinks & some meals on Saturday. We was all taken very good care of by the extremely helpful & friendly manager Timothy. Nothing was an issue, everything handled smoothly & efficiently, 5 star customer service right there! All of our meals were made to perfection, thank you to the excellent chefs, keep up the great work. Thank you very much Cornerstone, we will be back for sure.

Ordered food. Came without cutlery. Had to Ask for it twice. Was looked at like I had asked something abnormal. Should have been served with food

The bartender (harvey) had excellent service and was very helpfull.

Went fir friend day good service and games

Very nice place. Food was delicious and had a great time with my friends. Only problem was service was a tad slow. Other than that I had an amazing burger.

Cornerstone Kingston deserves every bit of its five-star rating! Chef Fiona’s culinary expertise shines through in every dish, particularly the fried chicken burger and chicken tacos—both are absolute must-tries. The fried chicken burger is perfectly crispy and juicy, while the chicken tacos are bursting with vibrant flavors. Special shoutout to team leader Seemant for his outstanding service; his attention to detail and friendly demeanor made our dining experience truly exceptional. Also Harriet served me very nicely. The cozy atmosphere and top-notch service make this place a gem in Kingston. Highly recommended!

The food here, it's fair – nothing to write home about, just gets the job done. The crowd? Let’s say it's a bit on the rough side, not the most refined bunch. And, well, there are cameras in the toilets, which is a bit off-putting. On the bright side, if you’re a sports fan, you’re in luck – there are plenty of TV screens to catch all the action. So, it’s got its ups and downs, but it serves a purpose.

I had a very nice time in there ,Priyanchi and Harshita were so lovley and nice and the price was reasonable ,I'll definitely come back.

I personally like the buttermilk chicken burger and the chicken pie from cornerstone pub, they are delicious! The staff are friendly, food is quick+reasonably priced and it is clean. They also have pool table so will be nice for company outing.

The atmosphere is lovely, and the staff are extremely attentive and welcoming!

The staff were extremely friendly, the vibe of the place was also absolutely lovely!

Best pub in Kingston, great place to hangout with friends. cheap + good vibes. Seemanth, Samuel, and Harvey were great!!

Came in today for my uncles 70th birthday it was lovely the food was amazing, the atmosphere was also there aswell the man behind the bar was hilarious and made us laugh came yo check we were alright as did the other staff too and they came and TOOK the TIME to come and wish my uncle a happy birthday he was so happy, that is the service you would wish for when coming to a restaurant like that.

And Again, That was the Best burger I ever Tried in my whole life

Sam is a hero! Love coming to this pub regularly to see my man

Tomasz is brilliant very good service from him we love coming here for drinks

Great atmosphere, the food and customer service were good

Great place to watch football. Bar staff always friendly and attentive. Our sharer platter was great. They have so much choice of sport to watch, great atmosphere, well done guys. See ya soon

I have visited the Cornerstone twice this week after not being around Kingston for a number of years. Last time remember it being a Hungry Horse (another Greene King brand) with the atmosphere of a zoo. The new place is really nice, many of the cheaper catchy offers have gone from the menu - along with the at table TV's with Peppa Pig and other junk blaring away in every booth and toy machines not in every corner. Popped in here today (Tuesday 16th January 2024) for a couple of drinks in the afternoon while freezing cold outside. The pub is so warm, quiet and friendly the hours passed quickly. Was only going to pop in for a quick drink, but stayed longer. The Madri was served perfectly. Decided to stay on for food as was so comfortable here. Ordered a Southern fried chicken burger and fries. It was served fresh, steaming hot with crispy fries. Full of flavour and an all-round hit - highly recommended to anyone. Had a great evening here, would happily recommend to others, and I will return again. Thank you for making my day better, its much appreciated 😊 --- Back again... updated 17/05/2024: Popped by for a drink and some food after work. New menu so had to find something new to try.. Went for the Salt & Pepper Chilli Chicken....came with a pot full of Katsu curry sauce and chips.. so much flavour and perfect! Glad gave this new item a try! Service 10/10 as usual too. Thumbs 👍

No nonsense pub, with Sports on the Box and Games Area. Fantastic new menu. Great options and all at very fair prices. Had the tacos which were FAB!!! Staff are super friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be back soon.

The most friendly & efficient staff! Food was delicious & inexpensive. Highly recommend!

Ordered the new BBQ fries from the new menu which were pretty good, played some shuffle board and darts to some banging music! Great prices for students here too!

Cornerstone Pub is an absolute gem! From the moment you step in, the ambiance is inviting and cozy, perfect for a casual hangout or a special evening. The menu is a delightful fusion of flavors, offering something for everyone. Each dish is crafted with care and attention to detail, bursting with freshness and taste. Whether you're craving classic pub fare or eager to explore their inventive specials, you won't be disappointed. And let's not forget about the drinks – their cocktails are a must-try, expertly mixed and beautifully presented. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to make your experience memorable. Whether you're a regular or a first-time visitor, Cornerstone Pub never fails to impress. A true neighborhood treasure!

Visited this place a few weeks ago. Fiod is good and staff is amazing. They show football which is the best. Will be coming back for the sports. Best sports bar in kingston and their manager Harshita is amazing and very kind. She took care of us.

Great place to stop in to watch some football, have a pint or two, and some good priced fish & chips. Customer service is great, they ensure the customer is taken care and do their very best to correct any concerns or issues that may arise. The menu is getting ready to have a few changes this upcoming... mainly the desert choices. Looking first to soon in and trying out the new menu this upcoming week. Thank you for taking care of us and for providing such wonderful service.

Harriet was absolutely amazing!! My mate lost her phone and she helped so much and rudy at the bar was amazing too! Really nice comfortable pub, would defo recommend x

Lovely staff! Definitely recommend it :)

If you are going to order steak here, order it two times more cooked than you would like it or it will come out raw and fatty. If you are going to order chicken wings, go somewhere else. These were slimy and still pink in the middle. Had to spit it out. The only reason this got 2 stars rather than 1 was the good service and how quick we got our drinks. Spent over £40 on food that I wouldn’t have eaten if someone paid me to. Usually I come here quite often but I will not be coming again.

I visit this on early August 2023, I had a takeaway, The inside of the burger bun was a bit yellowish but it was really good food, I go back again

Best place to be at in Kingston. Visited last week and if I'm right there was a manager called Harshita. Me and my family are vegetarians and she took utmost care of our needs. She answered each query with high confidence. Will visit again everytime we're around.

This place shouldn’t be open, the men’s toilets have 2 cubicles, 1 has no door and the other doesn’t have a loo roll holder so it’s on the dirty floor, there’s not enough staff and every table is covered in dirty glasses and plates, disgusting

Samuel at the bar is wonderful. Thank you

My wife and myself Just finished lunch at this pub. We both had Katsu Curry oh my God absolutely beautiful washed done with a perfect pint of Green king IPA Heaven. And such a great price Wednesday 24th April 1.15 many thanks Robert and Jane.

Okay, I went this place on august 4, 2023. and i had a takeaway and the food was good even the burger and fries, i will rate it 4.5

What an amazing experience! I went for a couple of drink with some old friends, atmosphere was amazing! Staff are so polite and welcoming, I was served by a gentleman called Harvey such a polite and lovely lad! Definitely recommend this pub!

I came for a couple of drinks after work with a couple of friends. I was served by a man called Harvey, he was extremely polite and professional! I'd definitely recommend coming here for a drink or even just for food!

Massive Thumbs Up to our Waiter Harvey, been to a few cornerstones but I will be back to this branch for sure!! he made my group feel welcomed and his service was exceptional. (ps; the fish & chips was delicious!!)

What an experience! I can't give anything other than 5* for this place. I was approached by Tomas and he made sure we got everything we needed while maintaining a very pleasant atmosphere. I really appreciate his service and the general vibe of this place 😁

Visited on a friday night, it wasn’t too busy but waited a while for drinks at the bar. I ordered 6 shots, 4 baby guinnesses and 2 tequilas - ended up with this…

The food is stone cold, how can they be this cold when they are just microwave food anyway?

Menu did not look good so we left.

Great atmosphere and service. Visited the pub a few days ago, the staff is very friendly and welcoming. Special shout out to Harshita who made sure my friends and I have a lovely time. She’s very sweet and attentive.

Far the best pub in Kingston. Food is amazing and great value for money

Really lovely little pub, done up in a modern style, friendly service and great food at good prices. Child-friendly.

A bit understaffed and overpriced because of it.

The food was cold and cooked from frozen. It's the first time I've been back in here since the previous owners left. Twice we had to ask for food as items were missing and having to wait 30 mins for dessert even though there were only 5 other people in this place at the time. The toilets, both the Male and Female had doors broken to the cubicles. 1st and last time. Plus is it legal to have a camera in the toilets???

After hearing all the bad reviews about the place we went today with an open mind and so glad we did, the children's meals weren't too big they are enough for our children and the food was lovely I did ask for my steak well done but it was a bit pink apart from that it was the loveliest meal I've ever had from cornerstones

It can get very busy when there are matches on. The food is nice but nothing special

Don’t know if it was the amazing drinks or the service but such an amazing experience indeed! Harshita’s service was impeccable and this shall be my go to bar for sure! We came there on a rainy day for a quick drink but ended up finishing three pitchers only for Harshita’s super nice and professional service. I hope to be served by her every time me and my partner are there!

I came here to work and have some food earlier this month. The food was yummy and the service was great.
