What a gem! I needed to handle a call in a quiet corner and found a perfect comfy spot. Plenty of space for groups. Also the usual snug little tables... Excellent coffee. Happy customer!

The serving staff were welcoming and looked after us well. However, a major disappointment was that we were told that no main dishes could be provided for the next hour and we were forced to choose small plates instead (apart from one diner who insisted on a main course). One diner was kept waiting for a long time after the rest had been served before she got her food. It would have helped had I been informed when booking that a main meal could well not be provided within a reasonable time, especially as your customers must include theatre goers like us.

I ordered a hot chocolate and Anna suggested that I try it with coconut milk and let me tell you it was divine!! Such a great recommendation and satisfied my chocolate craving to the max, plus the quality of the drink was top notch!

Very unhappy with the manager Anna. The manager (Anna) was irrational and very rude. My girlfriend who is 19 was denied alcohol because she apparently 'looked young'. This manager had no way of legitimately checking her driving licence and said to her that 'at her discretion' it was fake because the signature was too small. She threatened to call the police and we were happy for her to do so but she claimed it would take hours to discourage us.(0 stars if that was a choice!!!!!!!!)

Upon arriving, I approached the person at the door to say my friend and I had a reservation, and he looked blankly back at me, then at my friend and just waited for our reservation details (12pm for 2 people, Sunday 2nd February). When my friend gave the details, he flatly said "follow me", took us to our table and plonked down some menus without saying another word. A waiter came over to take our order but then asked his colleague to take it instead, without explanation. She then walked over and didn't have a tablet to take our order, so she memorised it. The only people who gave us good customer service was the 4th colleague who brought us our food, and a 5th colleague who brought us our bill. That only 2 out of 5 colleagues we interacted with were polite and courteous seemed shocking, especially as we have previously been to your sister establishment in Wimbledon and enjoyed great service there. It was a very unpleasant experience to be made to feel so uncomfortable when visiting here.

A bit restrictive for anyone with a food allergy. The folder they presented to me left me with 1 option which wasn’t on the menu. I’m coeliac. However, they accommodated me but I did feel nervous to eat at all after them explaining about there being the chance that everything contained gluten.

I have dined here a few times and every time has been different. The last time I came here, there was maybe 1 server working, so it took a very long time to order drinks, then food, then getting the bill also took a very long time. The food itself has been decent on and off. The last time, I got 1/2 the rotisserie chicken, and it was tasty but not that hot. On the plus side, I had an entire bottle of champagne for a birthday treat on the house- so a win is a win! I think I prefer coming here for breakfast/brunch. Their brunch menu is delicious and never disappoints.

We came for brunch on a Sunday. Very slow service at the start and end but the food came relatively quickly in between. I had the avocado on toast. It wasn't nice. A fair bit of the avocado was brown. I got halloumi on the side and it was burnt and shrivelled. For £5, you got 1.5 pieces of halloumi, which doesn't seem reasonable. The bread was like a brick wall. We left feeling pretty hungry and disappointed.

Food was cold and not nearly enough for the amount of people at the table. When bookings we specifically asked about the quantity of food as we had a previous bad experience with a big party dinner. 6 platters of consisting of 10 pieces of various food - for 15 people. Some of the food ( little burger buns with both meat and veggies ) smelled and tasted of like leftover thanksgiving turkey. All of this for for the around £300 ( just the food) . The whole situation was poorly handled by management which felt like was just trying to blame us for the situation. Underwhelming is the word.

Disappointing again! I went back in September for a family birthday meal, the service was poor and we were overcharged by £55! Today the service wasn't any better, we had to find a waitrose to ask to order drinks, and again to ask for sauces with our meal and again to ask for the bill. Tables were left uncleared. The WC had no loo roll. And my quarter of Rotisserie chicken was the smallest of chicken legs. All such a shame.

My daughter's birthday meal was ruined as we had specified we wanted a Sunday roast, table booked at 5pm. On arrival we were told that for 6 of us only 5 roasts were available and then whilst the waiter was talking to us they said "oh hold on it's only 2 now as those people over there have just ordered...!" Awful experience, really embarrassing for my daughter who had requested the restaurant, and we left to go elsewhere and spend a significant amount of money on a birthday meal which was much nicer. Do not attempt to go for a Sunday roast any time after lunchtime.

Been here a few times lately. The food is good but nothing memorable. The mussels are tiny so don't recommend it and the coconut curry although tasty has very few small prawns.At £40 for their cheapest wine which is just drinkable, makes it an expensive dinner. There are much better gastro pubs out there. It was also really quiet on a Thursday and the service was fine. Not a dinner I'd remember if it wasn't for the company . They could improve their menu and the quality.

Went here for Sunday Brunch. I had the temerity to ask for some ketchup from one of our servers as they retreated from our table. The reaction was that of a teenager tasked with tidying their room. In a manner I can best describe as 'I hate my job but I hate you more' he pointed at an individual portion of ketchup and said, "you've got some already." One between four it is, then. On his return, I asked what the problem was. He replied, "don't talk to me like that." When I countered, he brought an end to our engagement saying, "conversation over" and stormed off. That was it. Rude, aggressive and sullen - not qualities you want in front of house. It's important to point out our waitress was lovely and the breakfast bagel I chose was delicious. Though it came with a complementary hair, I didn't find it until nearing the end so it didn't ruin the meal.

Fui aquí para el almuerzo del domingo. Tuve la osadía de pedir ketchup a uno de nuestros servidores mientras se retiraban de nuestra mesa. La reacción fue la de un adolescente encargado de ordenar su habitación. De una manera que puedo describir mejor como 'Odio mi trabajo, pero te odio más', señaló una porción individual de ketchup y dijo: "ya tienes un poco. " Uno entre cuatro, entonces. A su regreso, le pregunté cuál era el problema. Él respondió: "No me hables así. " Cuando contrarresté, puso fin a nuestro compromiso diciendo, "conversación terminada" y se fue. Eso fue todo. Rudo, agresivo y sullen - no cualidades que quieres en frente de la casa. Es importante señalar que nuestra camarera era encantadora y el bagel de desayuno que elegí era delicioso. Aunque venía con un pelo complementario, no lo encontré hasta cerca del final para que no arruinara la comida.

We were planning on coming for dinner but didn’t have a reservation so we were made to sit outside even though inside had plenty of seating. The service was very slow outside and it took a long time to get someone’s attention. I wouldn’t recommend this place as you can only go inside if you book and seats outside are limited. It’s a shame as it looks nice but the service wasn’t very welcoming or friendly. We didn’t end up having dinner we went somewhere else and stayed for a drink which took quite a while to get.

Appauling service - 30 mins to get a waiters attention and over an hour to get our mains. The excuse we ordered padrón peppers as a starter, which sat empty at our table for over 20 minutes empty. When we asked where our food was, no responsibility was taken, we were instead blamed for having ordered a starter in the first place. We then asked if they could please bring our food as we had theatre tickets - 30 more minutes later and we are still waiting. In total 90 minutes of waiting for a Diet Coke, padron peppers and a 12.5% service charge. Shameful.

We had to get up twice to find someone to ask for more drinks and to find someone to ask to bring my friend syrup. No one came to check in on us after bringing our food over. We probably would have stayed longer and had more drinks and spent more money if they service had been better. It’s a shame as the place is nice and it didn’t seem overly busy or short staffed.

We went before going to Richmond theatre so we particularly appreciated the prompt service. The place had a nice ambience and decor. We were served glasses of tap water quickly without asking which was appreciated. We had 2 servers; both were courteous and not in your face. We were told about the happy hour drinks menu which we weren't aware of and this meant good value drinks - wine and beer. The chicken and chips followed by crumble were good. Recommended venue near station and theatre.

From my first visit to the No 1a Duke Street, though I have yet to savor the menu fully, I am compelled to commend the exceptional service and welcoming ambiance. The staff, led by the delightful Olta, extend a warm, genuine welcome that sets a high standard for customer service. Olta graciously showed me several comfortable seating areas within the restaurant, each offering a unique and cozy atmosphere, perfect for settling down with a laptop. The presence of a fireplace adds a touch of homely charm that enhances the overall experience on this spring day. What’s particularly impressive about No 1a Duke Street is their attention to inclusivity and variety in their menu options. For those with specific dietary preferences or requirements, they offer an array of vegetarian and plant-based dishes, and they cater to gluten-free needs with alternatives like gluten-free buns and sourdough bread. The Burger + Pint special on Tuesdays sounds like a tempting offer, providing a house burger with fries and a choice of a pint, glass of house wine, or soft drink at a value that's hard to overlook at £17.5. For those who are gluten-sensitive or intolerant or Celiac: the burger meat contains wheat as a binder! The staff's proactive approach in ensuring that every guest feels noticed and valued—even though they were unaware that I had already been assisted by Olta—speaks volumes about their dedication to customer satisfaction. While my full dining experience at No 1a Duke Street awaits a future visit, the initial impressions suggest that this restaurant is not just about food, but about creating a memorable experience for all who step through their doors. If the quality of the food matches the quality of service and the charm of the setting, I’ll become a regular when I’m in the Richmond area. Update: I’ve returned numerous times since writing my initial review, and updated the ‘stars’ to reflect the food - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Visited on a Friday night with a small group of friends expecting great cocktails and dancing - what we got were ‘ok’ cocktails with terrible service from the kids behind the bar, who had such a bad attitude and clearly didn’t want to be there. The place was empty with the DJ pumping out the fairly average tunes. It was an odd, off putting experience. None of us will be returning, or recommending.
