The Eel Pie Pub in Richmond upon Thames - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great pub, friendly staff, good food and good service. I visited with a group and we were served very quickly. And, the food was discounted as it was Monday.

Great atmosphere. Relaxed place. Good choice of drinks. Wi-fi works well. Always enjoy visiting this pub. Toilets were clean.

A group of us are often working in the Twickenham area on Monday/Tuesday and we are always looking for somewhere for supper. Tried a few pubs now (The White Swan, Barmy arms, Cabbage Patch, The Fox). The Eel Pie is one of the more recent ones and has a certain attraction on Monday evenings as 30% off food!! Anyway we like the atmosphere there and food good (typical pub food) along with good beers. Perhaps bar staff need to just up their game a little bit in terms of promptness but nevertheless really nice people. We will no doubt keep coming back especially with the Monday evening discount !

Always head to the Eel Pie for our end of month drinks. The team are really friendly and always a good atmosphere in the pub. Great food and quick service. Would definitely recommend

The pub is nice, was a bit busy and took a little while to get served. But they were really friendly and I would visit again.

Late lunch. Very disappointing. Food was OK, but service was not good. Had to ask for menus and had to go to the bar as no-one came to take an order. When it came, we were not offered any condiments, ie ketchup. No-one came to check on us and nothing said as we left. An incredibly unprofessional performance, only out shadowed by the disabled loo which was disgraceful. Taps had yuk around them and the loo was badly stained.

Meeting super friends for drinks and nibbles. OMG these guys do the best chicken wings in the world ever. Seriously good. Lovely ambience esp with our dogs and super friendly and efficient service. A great local. Thanks to all

Ordered 2 small red wines, charged for 2 medium wines. When we questioned this the bar man said we only serve medium or large. Would have been nice to be told this before the drinks were poured and card machine presented for payment. When we mentioned this bar man was rude and said read the menu then walked off. Obviously they don’t care about customer service in this pub. Won’t be going back

A popular place as it sells a good selection of drinks that are also good quality. Variety of areas to sit in although it does get busy. Will be back!

Came here before a match at Twickenham after a recommendation and it didn’t disappoint! Lovely atmosphere in the pub and very comfortable seats. Obviously it was going to be busy on a match day but the service for drinks and food was quick and the staff were friendly. The match day food offerings were great and lots of choice despite it being a limited menu, from burgers to sausage and mash there was something for everyone.

Popped in here for a swift beer after an afternoon of snooker. Great selection of ales. Good prices. Good service. Good atmosphere.

We found this pub when we were on a trip to twickenham for a tour of the stadium after a walk round the town we found the eel pie we were looking at the menu outside when a couple came outside and recommended the food we came back later and went in I cannot recommend it highly enough the food was second to none it is such a friendly pub and the service was excellent

A great venue down the iconic Church Street, Twickenham. Outdoor space at back and seats at the front. There was even some amazing live music. Sadly the food was awful. My friend ordered the cauliflower wings, which arrived overcooked, and were not at all like the pictures on the website. I had the chicken burger which was also overcooked, not fresh and couldn’t even get a ripe tomato slice right. If you sort out your food, this could be an amazing venue.

Had arrived in London for a visit to family and came out to meet some friends here Great decor and a very buzzing atmosphere so a great place to chat and catch up with friends

What a great friendly pub. We were visiting Teddington to stay with family. A great atmosphere in the pub & such friendly staff . It was great to meet up with family & enjoy an evening here. .

Lovely summer afternoon sat outside the Eel pie enjoying the Church St ambience . Nice drinks, service and customers create a lovely welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend

Although we book regularly for weekend lunchtimes we have often eaten here too. Food is delicious - freshly made not typical mass catering nonsense. All the lovely team who work here are super and cant do enough for you. Wine and beer all good quality. They are also dog friendly which is a bonus for us. Thanks to Emily and Jon for our regular table booking which is important for us. The pub is also immaculately clean including the loos. Absolutely brilliant local. We always thoroughly enjoy our visits. Thank you

This is a long established pub in lovely Church Street. It’s always popular on rugby days but we hadn’t eaten here before. My son chose to have his post graduation lunch here as it was near the venue, and it was an excellent choice. The service was friendly and efficient and the food was delicious with a choice of burgers, fish and chips and vegetarian options. It was also pretty busy for a Monday lunchtime- we’re looking forward to visiting again. Thank you!

Este é um bar e restaurante típico inglês. Comi um flat iron com batatas fritas e cogumelo, muito bem servido, macio e suculento. Gostei!

Smashing local pub. It was busy on a sunny Saturday, but notwithstanding the service was fast and friendly. Good range of draft beers, and meals were substantial, tasty, and very nicely presented. Highly recommended.

Fantastic place to go for a beer in Twickenham. Great range of beers and very quick service compared to others. Nice to be able to drink out of a hard plastic glass on a match day too. Made the beers taste all the better!

Great Sunday roast beef! Really enjoyed the Sunday roast dinner - beef was melt in the mouth and they include all the trimmings. Do book as they get busy and they did run out of the roasts into the afternoon.

Very busy pub-but reasonably effecient at getting through customers. Only dropped one star due to London prices which i think by and large are crazy and unjustifible.

Great food, lovely pub. Can recommend the burgers and aubergine curry, although the latter was missing some sort of naan/chapati. Third thurs of the month is Eel Pie Record day where the owner plays a selection of unusual records. Well worth going to this! Dog...

Had a wonderful lunch with my family. Steak was delicious and five star service from a lovely lady. I think she said her name was Morag. Great pub, will definitely be returning 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Fablous atmosphere. All the family enjoyed the visit. Food we had was good even though just snacking.

We called in for lunch after a morning walk. The food was tasty, plentiful and good value, complemented by a decent choice of beers. Afterwards we relaxed in the cosy armchairs with a couple more beers. Perfect!

called into this atmospheric pub last week for a drink. very pleasant internal decor and a nice atmosphere.

Sat at the end of the bar and got served by a beatiful polite barmaid. Think her name was ellen. Deffinatly would.

Business meeting with my partner, we were served by possibly the best barmaid and bar manager on this earth. Apparently callen Helen and Dack, they were amazing!

Well worth a visit for dinner, food was very good and service attentive. We sat outside to start with in the back garden, and ended up dashing inside when it rained! Lovely typical pub, and incredibly dog friendly. Will definitely be back.

The Eel Pie Pub in Church Street, Twickenham is highly recommended. There is an area around the fireplace that has comfortable leather club chairs. Above the fireplace is a mirror that can also be a TV. There is a good selection of beers served by friendly staff. The menu is adequate and the food is good. However on Rugby Match days they only serve burgers cooked on an outdoor bbq. These burgers are to be avoided as they are tough and tasteless. Definitely the worst I have ever had.

Stopped in for a beer with friends after the recent Rugby game. As usual the pub was packed but with it being a lovely sunny day was rather nice to stand outside with a cold cider. The choice of beers on the bar is excellent and the speed of service considering the challenges of a packed pub was impressive. The pub had a great atmosphere and as the crowds died away has some lovely seating areas to relax and chat with friends.

Typical London Pub and, thankfully, has remained almost so. Didin't eat there but pleasant atmosphere even thought prices were eye-watering compared to where we come from.

Visit friends in Twickenham probably twice a year. Girls head into London while the boys play snooker at the Twickenham Club. We always finish the afternoon off at the Eel Pie - good selection of beers, great service and good value for money.

One of my favourite places in Twickenham, friendly service, good food and a relaxing vibe on weekday daytimes.

If you aren’t into rugby do not go there on a match day as hugely popular. We went on a regular night and it had a good atmosphere. We were lucky to get a table. It’s quite noisy but the bar staff were attentive and good.

Visited this pub great staff good selection of beers and lagers Lovely surrounding It was nice to speak to the manager who was very friendly

Great little pub found along church street in Twickenham. Was attending the annual Army v Navy rugby, May 2019. Get in early as it can get very busy. Very friendly staff, good beer and banging food served very quickly considering it was packed with service and ex-service people.

I only came in here because it looked so quaint lit up at night in gorgeous, olde-worldy Church St. Then was in heaven when I saw the row of Badgers beer pumps smiling up at me. Now, not everyone likes Badgers beers--my friend thinks they taste like cheesy old slippers gone off. But I love that unique Badgers taste, so I drank along the line. The pub was showing football, but discreetly towards the side and back. It is a nice old joint with efficient staff and a good mix of clientele, judging by my visit. The Eel Pie and the Fox on this street gave me a very good evening on my one night in Twickenham.

Advised this was essential pop in for a pint as part of the walk in to Twickenham and this certainly is a rugby pub with screen for match good beer and spills over onto street a must do pint before match

Been coming here since it opened in the late 70's. It was a free house then which was unusual for the time. It's expanded a bit since then but is still a good boozer with a good range of Hall and Woodhouse ales at reasonable prices. Can get very busy on Saturdays and even more on match days. Very handy for a pre or post dinner drink at the restaurants in Church Street.

Had the hot wings to start which were delicious followed by the chicken Caesar salad burger (without bun) which was tasty. My mum had the sausages and mash which she thoroughly enjoyed, I tried the red onion gravy which was delicious. Beautiful pub with lots of music memorabilia. Staff were very friend and attentive too.

We enjoy a drink here and have had snacks but not a meal before. The fish platter was good although the curry sauce was very sweet but the steak pie was not so good and the vegetables were over cooked.

Nice pub with good food. I'm fussy but this is good quality. Average price for the local area. Recommend.

I cant believe ive been working in Twickenham for 3 weeks now and this is my first visit to this fantastic friendly boozer.

Visited The Eel Pie after an afternoon of snooker at the Twickenham Club with my mate (who lives in Twickenham). Good selection of beers and lots of rugby memorabilia - as you would expect and friendly and attentive staff.

Classic traditional pub, dominated by a huge amount of rugby memorabilia linked to its proximity to Twickenham Stadium, which is about 15 minutes walk from the ground. I was there on the morning of an international match against Australia, so the atmosphere was great. It has a good selection of real ales and craft lagers, but it’s worth visiting just for the memorabilia, which is mainly about rugby. But one room is also dedicated to the nearby Eel Pie Island and its history as the location of a celebrated music venue. Even the ceiling is covered with reproductions of playbills from the Eel Pie club. This is a big pub with some additional outdoor seating for good weather.

Lovely local pub with a great selection of beers and friendly staff. It really is one of the best pubs around and the staff never lose their energy and smiles (even on the busy rugby days)!

Called in for a drink after the crowds had died down from the rugby. Great to have a good selection of drinks especially quality vodka & proper coke. Excellent service. Down to earth place to have a drink. Toilets upstairs which were clean. A great place to while away your time.

Lovely friendly atmosphere, great choice of ales and fantastic pub grub. Loved the music memorabilia part of the bar with a great ceiling

Good selection of drinks, good amount of seating, good service, obviously mostly badger orientated bar. The food is okay, I've had the pie, the fish and chips and the burger, they were all above average pub food but also the food is inconsistent and isn't always up to par of their own standards.

After going into several cafes in Twickenham looking for gluten free savoury options for my friend and being met with indifference it was refreshing to find somewhere who had great understanding about cross contamination and provided a lovely lunch. I had a very good fishfinger sandwich served with chips and salad. The drink was also reasonably priced.

Adorned with rugby programmes this is set up for the pre-match drink or casual pint before dinner. A couple of pints of Badger Ales were well received and served as a suitable toast to my recently departed Uncle who was a particular fan of this brew. It is a well kept establishment with a good selection of beer.

What more can you want! Friendly atmosphere, Good selection of Ales, good food, good size portions, good value. Will get busy when events on in the stadium but all good fun!

Rock and rugby seem to be the main themes of this cosy little boozer. A decent selection of ales complement a friendly staff. I went along to an afternoon birthday bash where the birthday girl went out of her way to praise the management for their help in making it an unforgettable day. Agreed.

Nice pub with Badger ales including Tanglefoot. Nicely laid out and a pleasant courtyard garden. The food portions are not huge in our experience.

Very nice pub that manages the scrum if rugby fans very well indeed. Always a great atmosphere in the pub but never rowdy. Good beers as well. Proper traditional pub.

This pub is set off the main rush away from Twickenham Stadium and has a great atmosphere. The beer is good and they broadcast sport on the tv.

Un vrai pub local avec un très bon choix de bières. Un fish and chips pas mal du tout. Et de belles décorations sur le thème du rugby. Après tout nous sommes dans la ville du temple du rugby, non?

This is a good old fashioned and good English pub. Brewery owned and maintained to a comfy pub standard with huge leather arm chairs if you want to wallow with your pint. The bar is crowded on rugby days - great fun but noisy. Certainly good for a range of beers and the wine is OK too..

Taken on Twickenham match day and it was heaving! Great character pub and so efficiently run that despite crowd had quick service, could find space and enjoy the atmosphere of a great British tradition.

Everything you want from a proper Booza! Feels welcoming and comfortable who ever you take there. Most evenings are busy and the lunches are good. A well recommend watering hole!

..For the first time to be exact even. Excellent and friendly staff with a decent selection of beer. Warm atmosphere, nonpretentious and simply what I love with a genuine old-fashioned british pub. The backroom had also a rocknroll theme (bonus points and salute to the manager for that initiative) He should however think about what music is played in the general area and add some early Motörhead on a wall, because one of their early guitarists is from/lives in Twickenham. We will be back asap to try their food and simply exist in peace. Cheers!

I visited the pub with my mum and toddler daughter for lunch, the pub is in a nice location on a attractive cobbled street and there was a Xmas market when we visited. The pub itself is lovely, with friendly staff and good food. I did have to ask for the heating to be turned up though as it was quite cold. But apart from that it was a lovely lunch for all. My daughter was particularly pleased as she was given a Xmas activity pack, and she got to dance in the snow outside when they turned on a snow machine. We will def visit again.

Went there on the off chance with my mother and teenage daughter and it satisfied all three generations. We had fish n chips and a hummous sandwich. Plain but well cooked and huge portions. Managed to squeeze in desserts though. They were nice but bit...

Always a friendly and enjoyable visit to this pub. In the middle of twickenham with lots of rugby memorabilia and references! Good choice of drinks and delicious food!

I went here for a drink with my daughter, son-in-law and baby granddaughter. The fact there was a pram wasn't an issue. We found a couple of sofas in a corner to sit and put the pram out of the way. I ordered drinks, with the coffee being brought to the table. All served by very welcoming and friendly staff.

Arriving in Twickenham on a NFL Sunday before the pubs opened we decided to have a wander round and discovered The Eel Pie tucked away from the main streets.

Very friendly staff,great atmosphere,love the rugby décor.Very clean pub also,

Has to be top 5 pubs in the borough - good clientele, quick service and the food I've had in there has always been good.

We had a super time when we hired the room for a private function after a ceremony at York House. Food was great & drinks reasonable priced. It was great & the management & staff were brilliant. Couldn't of asked for anything more from them. Would definitely recommend it.

We held leaving drinks for our colleague and reserved the area at the back. Staff were great with rearranging the furniture and helping set up a few things. There's a great selection of drinks. The atmosphere is great, and caters for family, friends catching up, drink after work and then the larger space for private hire. I would of gave a five star, but as I haven't eaten there I'm just scoring on the drinking, venue, staff and service. Would certainly dine here next time.

Walked past this many times and thought it looked a bit like an old fashioned 'boozer'. But whilst staying in Twickenham for the weekend with a friend gave it a go! How wrong can you be! Great friendly pub! Warm welcome, loads of comfy seating for dinners and drinkers alike. We enjoyed a few small plates for lunch - all lovely and reasonably priced. Saw others main meals which looked good and plentiful! Barman very helpful and nothing too much trouble.We returned,much later, around 10pm and again although busy a great welcome and prompt service. All age groups, dogs and small children all welcome - a real gem just off the river!

A great dog friendly lovely little pub with very helpful, lovely staff and great food and snacks.They also sell ice cream for dogs!Always a nice atmosphere in here too. Would defo recommend.

We were in town to see family and friends and were in a hotel with no restaurant, so we explored Twickenham and found the Eel Pie Pub. What a great discovery. The food was amazing, we came twice and had the steak & ale pie both times, delicious. The atmosphere was great. On a Saturday we popped in for a drink and found lots of people in fancy dress for a birthday party and a live band (RED) who were brilliant. All in all a great place to visit.

Quartier Twickenam à Londres. Nous y avons bien mangé. .. Très bon accueil ... Plats variés. .. Nous avons bien apprécié. ..Nous vous le recommandons .

If you sit in the back bar you will be able to smell the repulsive cigarrette smell from the desperate smokers in the paved area. The doors to this are usually open and they may as well be inside!. The bar inside is usually quite busy hence having to resort to the other area. Other than that it's passable as a pub but has been modernised with awful sofas and gimmicky memorabilla.

A fine little pub on a fine little street, Church Street, in a fairly fine town, Twickenham. We ate a lot of fish and chips in two weeks in Kent and the London area, and, honestly, The Eel Pie version would be tough to beat. We ate in the small patio out back. Several good cask ales, but, alas, I drank so many that I don't remember a single name.

The service was brilliant, the bar staff must be used to dealing with a busy bar as they kept everybody served with a smile. The location is lovely, especially at the front of the pub, where you can sit and people watch. A good selection of beers. All round great pub

Visited for drinks as my other half likes the beer that is sold here. Staff were friendly & helpful. Not many people in so not much of an atmosphere. Toilets upstairs which were clean.

We were told by the bar staff that the kitchen couldn't cope when it's busy. It's a good job that there are no major sporting venues anywhere near...,,

Having booked and it being a sunny day, we asked if we might sit outside in the courtyard area - to be told they didn't serve food there. Strange then that the waitress was continually carrying food outside to diners.SERVICE was very slow, despite the restaurant area being very quiet.MENU one of our guests has slight eating problems so had viewed the menu online and wanted sausages and mash. To be told, "The online menu is out of date and it's no longer served." (Note: Still on the online menu today...) So she opted for Scotch Egg. Sorry, we're out of that. So all she could eat were some overpriced sweet potato fries.Another guest wanted Parmesan Chicken, to be told "Sorry, we're out of that." Come on, you've only got SEVEN items on your main menu - two of which are burgers. How do you run out of chicken?!DRINK: Pint of Peroni £5.15 Am I buying the glass as well?So in summary, slow service, poor menu choice, overpriced, food nothing special.

Walking down the lane to this cosy pub is like stepping back in time. It has loads of character from the huge log fire, old rugby memorabilia and quaint charm. A proper pint too!

Went to the Eel Pie for Father's Day lunch and was overwhelmed by the incredible service in this pub. The pub was busy and the beer garden almost full. They also had tables outside the front as part of the 'Church Street Goes Green' event taking place today.The staff were friendly, efficient and very helpful, giving great advice on the menu and beers on offer. The food came out quickly, was all delicious and was very good value for money. We had a selection of platters to share including mezze & meat (best pork pie i've had in a long time!) which we were delighted with. We saw the table next to us receive huge, fresh fish & chips, which looked great too, so that may sway me next time!The children's menu is the best value I have seen in a long time, with decent portion sizes & ice cream included.For those with pets, the pub also offers 'doggy ice cream!' A fabulous experience and the perfect choice for the relaxed, stress free Sunday lunch we were looking for.And it also happens to be in the quaintest street in Twickenham!

Popped in for beer as we passing by, the pub itself is quite nice, but there were a couple of guys by the bar who were drunk and using foul language and the bar staff didn't ask them to keep it down, so the atmosphere was unpleasant, had one beer which wasn't that good and left.

We attended a rugby match on SAt 29th Apr 2107. The pub was very busy, but the staff were very good and served people very quickly. A great range of beers and we found the pub to be very warm and friendly. Unfortunately, we dont know if the serve pub grub as we only went there to DRINK!Beer prices were up to 60p per pint cheaper than other pubs in the same street.They did serve burgers which were being served from the rear garden, but we thought the £5.50 for a burger was a bit over priced. Pub decor was very interesting and spent some time looking at the memorabilia on the walls which was very interesting.Cant wait to visit the area again and we will be sure to pop back for another pint...

Love this pub, always have a good drink here really friendly atmosphere, ate Cod and Chips. It was huge, really good value for money, quick service considering busy and really tasty.

The Eel Pie pub is a very good local pun tim the middle of Twickenham. The pub is staffed by young and very friendly staff, the pub has a good feel as soon as you come through the door. The lunchtime menu is good and resonably (by todays standards) priced. It is always resonably busy but on football and rugby weekends it's full to overflowing in the summer sitting outside it on benches in Queens Street is a great way to end your evening. Wholehearedly recommended..
