The Bloomsbury in Richmond upon Thames

a real gem. there aren’t many pubs like this around anymore. the roast was a real old school home cooked one. i love a posh roast but this was just like stepping into a time machine and being a child again. warm and hearty meal with my family in a homely pub. the barmaid was a darling as well. will definitely be back 🩷

Best pub near me I reckon. Amazing food (huge portions), wonderful staff and landlady. Always made to feel welcome. Great atmosphere too. Music, darts and dogs allowed too. Fantastic place!

Went for Sunday lunch today I must say it was by far the best pub lunch I have had for a very long time As ever the service was friendly and efficient If I lived locally I would be there every Sunday!

This pub cooks the best steak in Twickenham! You best believe it Amongst Lots of other delicious dishes. Chicken and chorizo skewers . Pizza and more

Another amazing Sunday lunch. Our roasts were fantastic. Everyone enjoyed them. My 6 year old daughter said they make the best roasts, especially her favourite pork belly! We haven't visited for a while, but as always, Janey and the staff were brilliant and remembered and welcomed our party, as if we were there last week. We have only ever tried the roasts, but we are looking forward to trying the weekday menu very soon! A definite place to visit for food... You won't be disappointed. Thanks, Pete, Janey, and the team xx

Varied menu plus specials board at sensible prices. We had fish and chips which was very nice. Separate eating area with plenty of room. Excellent friendly service as well. We shall be back 👍

Went for a Sunday roast after having read the reviews must say was not disappointed. Though on Sundays they only have roasts. The food was really good and the portions were nice. The staff friendly and pleasant. Shall definitely visit again not for roast but to try their regular menu. Shall report back hopefully soon.

Went there 4 times in a row. Had fajitas twice(awesome) 1 x lamb skewers ok thought a bit chewy and 1 x pizza enjoyed, large portions, great prices. Would easily recommend, staff great.

Excellent sunday roast. Very friendly staff.

I’ve been going to the Bloomsbury for years on a Sunday for their amazing roast dinners but today I tried their sirloin steak . I have to say it was without a doubt the best steak I’ve ever had in a pub . Definitely restaurant quality Great staff , great wine selection and and a great atmosphere Thoroughly recommend

We went to the Bloomsbury for an evening meal, with disabled friend and his wife, the staff, janey was so helpful allowing us to move tables around to watch the TV, the locals also help to allow his scooter access around inside. John and JJ serving behind the bar offered sttable service. The meals themselves, again so tasty and filling, Pete came over to ensure the meals were OK and too our liking. Overall, it was a great trip out without any problems for a group of 4, 2 disabled people.

Just popped in as was staying local for a night. Was greeted well by the customers and by Peter, the iwner/landlord. Great chat all night, last one to leave 😁👍

Fabulous home cooked pub food especially peters sunday roast and perfect roasties. Fab staff couldn't wish for anything more 😋

Watched the England Vs Slovakia match in here, good atmosphere, nice friendly staff, good drinks, reasonably priced too

Took my friends to eat Sunday Roast here. This is 1 of the best places to eat Sunday Roast. You have a choice of beef,lamb, chicken with sides. It is a big portion and they are very generous with the meat. The food comes out piping hot. It tastes delicious and you can see the food is made with care, the lady who serves you the food is lovely and chatty as are the other servers nothing is too much of an ask. They are very generous and the price is good for a delicious meal. This I believe is a family run pub and it is just so lovely. We loved our Sunday roast and I highly recommend this place for a quality roast dinner. You can ask for a smaller portion of older guests if needed or less vegetables if you want they are flexible. Thankyou

Staff are always so pleasant and accommodating. Lovely atmosphere. Food is great, portions are huge!! You will not leave hungry!

Visited for lunch and had delicious freshly prepared pub food served by friendly, welcoming staff. Extensive menu with something for everyone and excellent specials board. Would definitely recommend

Nice place, friendly staff. My son ordered Mixed Meat pizza and it was very good! Will definitely come back for more tasty meals!

What a fabulous pub run by Janie and her husband Peter. Fab choice of gins beers etc . That Janie cooks a mean pizza

The best pub grub in any pub ! Top quality steaks ! Juicy and tender The pork tomahawk is absolutely mouth watering! Lamb chops with Greek salad so refreshing to eat ! We love this pub ! X

It was mine and my partners first time at this pub, food was AMAZING. Lovely atmosphere, will definitely come again!

Fantastic food and great value with friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Always warm and friendly. Great food at really good prices.

Went to the Bloomsbury on a Friday night still busy but able to find a table with access for a disabled person in a mobility scooter, staff as always did everything to help us get settled and proved the information on the meals available. 5 Adults with drinks and filling meals are well worth the money. You never go hungry. For a local pub that prides itself on good food and friendly staff, you can't go wrong. Not a lot of true local pubs left.

a fantastic place to eat' food was of the best quality and staff were friendly and welcoming, jane and pete are excellent hosts, our second visit and will not hesitate to go back at the earliest oppurtunity.

Proper home cooked food Sunday roast was amazing 👏 😋 👌🏻 🙌 thankyou will definitely come again portion sizes are very generous lovey owners

Food was amazing. Staff really good, very welcoming, and definitely one not to miss Sunday roast only no starters or dessert, but you won't need it

Visited for a family birthday lunch. We were a party of 12, mixture of ages and tastes. Something for everyone on the menu and all home cooked. Portions plentiful and value for money is excellent, especially in TW2! Family run pub with a warm atmosphere where the staff can't do enough to help. Pizzas are superb. Can't wait to return.

"Exceptional food and drinks await at this pet-friendly pub. The ambiance is fantastic, offering ample space for a comfortable experience."

Lovely pub with an old school atmosphere…locals are friendly and excellent food with football shown daily. Friendly bar staff who are always ready to bring over drinks while eating. The landlord is a great chef, our T-bone steaks were fantastic and landlady…she’s hilarious!!!! Xxx

A proper local with excellent food, choice of beers and very friendly and helpful staff. A cosy, atmospheric, dog-friendly pub with a gracious and super welcoming landlady. The Sunday lunch is better than any multi-chain gastro pub. Felt very comfortable and welcome. Will definitely return.

As a family, we went out for an evening Friday meal. It was busy, with a few behind the bar and the other guys helping in the kitchen, only had to wait 10 minutes for our meals. It was worth the wait all the meals were enough for us. And the staff kepted looking after us. A looked meal and great staff.

Went here today for a Sunday roast with some friends and I am a very fussy eater, but this has got to be the best roast dinner I have eaten and d I have been to quite a few pubs. The service was lovely, the employees so friendly and caring. The roast dinner was just perfect, a choice of chicken, lamb or beef and it came with lots of veggies. What I loved about the food was that it was steaming hot just how I like my food. Nothing was too much to ask, we wanted extra gravy and some extra sauce and it was given all with a smile. This is definitely going to be my go to place for a perfect Sunday roast. Thankyou for the great service and delicious food.

Slap up meal awesome 👏 Lovely service 👏 Well preserved British pub ❤️

Lovely food and welcoming environment for families , groups, or couples. We had a great meal from the special board as well as bits from the £5 menu.

Great bar staff thank you all. Special Thank you to Jannie & Pete owners a wonderful 5* Pub... Great Warm Cosy place. And you won't be disappointed.. Can't wait to return with my friends.

A fantastic and friendly pub with a great atmosphere. Food portions are great with a good selection of cider.

Had the belly pork roast - abit disappointed at the small portion of meat on the bone ! Variety of veg which quickly cooled down!

Really nice place to eat with family and friends. Great food, like homemade.

Lovely food and Friendly staff, couldn't do enough to make us feel at home.

Great pub, great food, great landlord and landlady

What a lovely little pub, very friendly welcome and yummy scrmmy food, we will definitely be returning!

A nice pub with nice food run by lovely people. Everything you could want.

Absolutely fabulous - whole rib of baby backs - mouthwatering - a pub meal better than many restaurants Family run - very friendly Will come again !!!!!!

One tiny yorkshire pudding on a Sunday roast!

Do you want the best steak in Twickenham ? Come to the Bloomsbury! Perfect t bone, sirloin , rib eye steaks with salad and chippys ! I promise you can’t get a better steak 🥩

Sunday Lunch. Travelling from Hounslow this morning whilst waiting for a flight, for Sunday Roast. Greeted with a warm hello at midday when they opened. Very good pint of London Pride. They only do roast on Sunday and no dessert, which was fine for us. Daughter had the beef. I started with the pork belly. Oth were really excellent, if portions and fully tasty. My pork belly was extremely well made + crackling. Potatoes amazing fluffy and crispy, heavy was obvs homemade and a compliment to the meat. Mine was so good I had a second roast, lamb this time, which was also exceptionally tasty. Highly recommended the pork belly guys. Superb experience. Genuine and friendly vibes and a feel of family. Thanks guys. Good luck 🫶🌏

Fantastic! We had the T-bone from the specials menu and was incredible. Cooked to perfection. My wife had the skewers which were also delicious and such good value for money! Excellent food selection and the same goes for the drink!

Excellent food, perfect pint of London Pride, very friendly and helpful staff. I would highly recommend this establishment.

Fabulous Roast and more. Found this place on TripAdvisor as wanted a decent roast nearby. We stayed at Whitton which was a 25 minute walk away as went to the rugby at Twickenham yesterday. It did not disappoint the food was wonderful. I had lamb, very little fat and very generous portions. My husband had chicken, so plump, fresh, juicy and fresh. Fresh veg, amazing roasties. So refreshing to be served side sauces at the same time. So often you ask for mint sauce and wait 10 minutes. Food hot and tasty. Nice clean pub, friendly staff and customers and showing footie, but option to eat elsewhere in the pub or outside as well maintained gardens. So glad I found this on TripAdvisor, it did not disappoint! Only disappointment was no puddings! Had my heart set on something with custard!

We stopped off on our way to a wedding. We were tight for time and needed a spot of lunch.The staff were incredibly friendly and cooked us some great pizzas all in time to see us off on time for the ceremony. Lovely people!

Lovely relaxed pub. Child & dog friendly. Has a big screen for sport & garden seating. Had a wonderful veggy sunday roast with the best cauliflower cheese ever. Huge portions & really good value. Everyone is really friendly & the evening pizza menu looks like it's definayely worth a try. Excellent pub for food & meet ups.

The best roast dinner ever, go there regularly for our Sunday roasts as they’re literally fantastic. Staff are all so pleasant, helpful and lovely .Janey and Peter are fantastic landlords, very accommodating and make you feel very welcome in their friendly pub

Absolutely delicious Sunday lunch, would definitely recommend it. Staff are very warm and friendly. Thank you Janey and Pete and all your lovely staff for making mum’s 80th birthday lunch so good!

OMG what can I say. Best roast dinner ever. Even better than I do at home. Absolutely superb. The staff are all lovely aswell. I will 10000% be going back. Thank you very much

Great food, staff friendly good atmosphere. Love it. Roast dinners are amazing. The portion sizes are really good too.

We keep coming back here....If you fancy a drink at the end of the day, and, you can't be bothered to cook, try the Blooms.Great food, good price, smiling faces.. Give it a go....

Popped in for lunch on Sunday without a booking and thankfully they were able to fit us in. Lovely friendly staff and clean environment. Beautiful Sunday roast with the best roasties I've ever had. My niece had the veggie option and really enjoyed it.

Lovely Sunday roast, crispy potatoes, fresh crunchy veg, tender beef. The best 'home made' roast you can get outside of the home! And all the staff are so friendly and helpful.

Amazing roast beef dinner & dessert (chocolate brownie & custard) Very friendly people. There were 15 people in our party aged from 8 to 80 we all had a lovely afternoon and will definitely be going back. The staff were lovely.

We stopped off here by chance. It was fast approaching 2pm and we had been driving around for a while when this showed up as being close to our location and it had some great reviews. It didn't disappoint. We were given a really warm...

Great food! Generous portions and reasonably priced. We had chicken and chorizo skewers and beef fajitas - tasty and delicious. Drink is reasonably priced and staff are attentive.

Being retired and carless I occasionally find myself without food for lunch either through sheer laziness (not being being bothered to catch a bus into town) or any other excuse I can come up with at the time. Last Saturday was one such occasion, and...

Best pub in twickenham ……….. Peter cooks the best pizza in town The fish and chips will not be beaten by any one Big portions ! Fab pub xx

SUNDAY Lunch, if you go there please wear flexible bottoms. The meals are so filling and staff always friendly. They makes you feel welcome everytime.

Unbelievable service, great people, great homemade pizza, great beers and great screen. Best pub in Twickenham

Well worth considering to meet with friends on a Friday night. The bar staff were attentive and friendly. The food was good and better than average pub food, I had the pizza and it was very generous.. Price was reasonable as well. Not sure about the now popular grey matt painted walls but the staff made up for the decor. It does get very busy on Twickenham Rugby days I hear..and Harlequins big matches.

Always a fantastic Sunday roast10 out of 10

Fantastic food. Great service. Highly recommended.

I met up with some rugby friends to watch the England v Wales match on Saturday. Great time was had by all & we were looked after brilliantly by the staff. Nothing was too much trouble - extremely efficient, always smiling with a great sense...

Working at the Stadium on the six nations fixtures, I stayed locally and found this excellent little pub. What a lovely find. A welcoming and cosy bar, great staff, great beer too, and the food was awesome. I would really recommend checking this place out.

Went here for the first time for a Sunday roast. Had an excellent lamb roast, and the roast tatty's were as good as my own. Fantastic value for money, friendly helpful staff with wheelchair access too. Would highly recommend :))

Been ages since my last visit, pre covid , and I wasn't disappointed . Wonderful hospitality and delicious food, . Highly recommended .

Rude staff and unclean toilets as well as awful tenants

Been past the venue many times and today we were part of a funeral party. The pub is gorgeous inside, spacious, clean and very welcoming. The food was absolutely gorgeous and nothing was to much trouble for the staff. Great venue for a function or meet up with friends or family.

Perfect Sunday roast and hospitality was outstanding. Would recommend. Owners were amazing and bar manager Micheal was very welcoming and professional. I will be visiting again. Ten out of ten

Had 2 delicious take away pizzas last night. One veggie and one meat they were amazing! The service was quick and efficient, called up and they were ready in 20mins. We have eaten at the Bloomsbury many times and Pete and Jane have always been...

I went more than once to eat here, the place is usually welcoming. Not this Saturday. I went at 2.45 pm and I asked to have lunch. A woman told me all was fully booked. How come? The place was almost empty. My face was like as I couldn't believe it and I asked if I could eat outside and she stopped me saying NO. I understand it was 2.45 pm and probably the kitchen was going to close soon. But you, owner, should have told me so. Instead of lying and telling me that an empty pub was fully booked. Not nice.

First time to this pub last night. Great find. Really good service and the food was amazing and very reasonably priced .😊

My business partner and I stopped off here before heading back home and were greeted by very welcoming staff. The food was amazing and Michael and Jess were very helpful and attentive. Great pub with a brilliant atmosphere and locality. Definitely recommend and will be...

I picked the Bloomsbury as I go there with parents and this time I decided to take my husband and friends, we had a great time. The boys were happy watching the footy on the big screen, food is always superb. Friendly staff. Love this...

If you're not White English, this is not the place.
