The Greyhound in Richmond upon Thames

Really enjoyed the beautiful beer garden, perfect for a relaxing afternoon. I've added it to my barguide.london site too!

Great place to have authentic English food

Really good Sunday lunch, with excellent service

Easily the best fish and chips I've ever had. Thick juicy fish with the perfect amount of thin crispy batter!! Amazing. Will be back.

I’ve been twice now and both times the food has been really disappointing. Burnt chicken schnitzel! Oil left on my plate, potatoes portion small compared to others. Humus had been watered down so much it was tasteless and wouldn’t stay on the pitta. Pitta not toasted cut straight from the packet! Expensive for level of cooking.

Sunday roasts are amazing! Worth coming for. Service is inconsistent, sometimes it's great and sometimes is very very slow.

Lovely authentic pub thats just off Kew station. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The food is great, especially if you have a group (3+ at least) and you can buy a Sunday roast platter, which certainly hits the spot! See pictures :-). Highly recommend 5*

Just popped in for a drink after visiting an exhibition at Kew gardens. Nice pub, really friendly landlord and lovely views across a park/green. Pricey but then we were in Kew!!

Booked a table for my partners birthday had made special request for a nice tablex upon arriving I don’t think they read the booking details/notes at all the gentleman put us on a table by the entrance of the pub when we would have preferred a low table especially due to booking in advance and the special requests, the waiter who seated us very loud forward and in your face trying to upsell the platter which we was already going to get we didn’t need the 20 minuet upselling speech, we then saw a low table up for grabs so we asked to move which he moved us with no issue, the food eventually came and online it states the platter would be enough for 2-3 people which I find very hard to believe I think as we ordered a platter and it was only 2 of us they put smaller portions as a table next to us had 5 people and their platters looked more full than ours , after food arriving I was waiting for the pigs in blankets we’d also ordered when ordering the platter and I myself have came from hospitality so would have expected the food to come all together but no I had to ask 4 different people about the location of the pigs in blankets I asked a young Caucasian boy first and he said oh I’m sure they will be here in a bit ? Sorry but I don’t want my food in a bit I would like it now so I can eat along with the rest of my bland dinner so after asking another 3 people my pigs in blankets arrived 20 minuets into our meal which by then I was well and truly finished with my roast dinner, upon getting the bill I noticed a 13 pound service charge fee which I asked them to remove there was no service they brought the food and that was it, from the moment I entered the pub I felt out of place I really expected better due to the good reviews but clearly people in Kew don’t know what good food or service really is, ultimate sharing platter cost 95 pound NOT WORTH IT AT ALL do not waste your time

Food arrived with no cutlery not offered condiments and cold. Chicken breast had a huge bone in it and was tiny and over cooked. Asked why it was so small answer was “it shrinks when cooked” no apology for anything. Over run with children and very noisy. Front of house staff/bat staff very polite and friendly but food and waiting staff in the garden need improvement

Nice little pub with really good lunch specials

Amazing pub, staff so attentive, food fantastic 😋

This pub serves some great tasting chunky portions, fish and chips was a massive piece of fish, the burger meat was thick and juicy, they have some good deals on through the week.

Received a lovely greeting upon entry. Lovely little pub by the Green . Really nice place to relax. Outside seating for smokers. Dog friendly

Pub with incredible spaces, good food and music!!!

The pub had a lovely view of Kew Green. Great service and excellent food.

wonderful hosts with great service.

Excellent food, great service, very close to Kew Garden. Parking was not an issue.

Gastro pub on Kew Green. Visited during Olympics for drink only. Good service. Lovely location. Parking can be difficult. Get Ringgo App to ease this.

Polite service, and with a great view of Kew Green.

Nice, not too pricey, gastropub which has views south over Kew Green with attentive service and good size portions. Only downside was the adjacent table sharing their shouty conversation with everyone.

Excellent staff,service and food.

Fantastic location for a family or friends pub lunch. Food was freshly cooked and better than your average pub food. Plenty of space and very accommodating to young families and pets. Would recommend the salmon or the chicken from the specials menu

This is where we take friends and family to show them the best roast dinner in London.

We haven’t made a reservation on Sunday It seems to be fully booked, but the staff are very friendly and managed to arrange a table for us. Very good atmosphere and comfortable. We ordered lamb and beef Sunday roast. Lamb is quite good. The Yorkshire pudding is quite crispy too.

Relaxing location on the green for a midday or afterwork drink.

I went there for Sunday roast and I got a beef roast. The portion was very generous and super friendly staff. We had really good time. I will absolutely be coming back very soon!!!!

Perfect for family and friends gathering for its Sunday roast, it was exceptional! The meat was incredibly tender, and the cauliflower were perfectly seasoned.The cozy ambiance added to the experience. An unforgettable dinner and we can't wait to come back!

Best sunday roast in London. Hands down. The Ultimate Sharing Board. Amazing service and Team

Hidden gem tucked away on the south side of the river. Tasty, delicious, fine dinner! Unbelievably good & much better than all found on the other side.

Great place to have food and drink!

Visited here for an in-promptu Sunday lunch with friends today. Outstanding food, big portions, great value! Already planning a return

Food was awful. Manager was extremely when this was raised and actually shouted and was very intimidating to my elderly mother.

Seriously lovely lunch today for two (a roast beef and a roast pork). And the service was fantastic. Which is odd after Brexit!

Refined and really delicious food. Recommending the pithivier and the porks crackling. Really cute pub. Friendly team and great and attentive service. Highly recommended.

Great gastropub located in Kew. Perfect for a Sunday lunch outing.

Went yesterday for Sunday Lunch, 4 adults and a toddler. The waitress was fantastic, and really accommodating to our child. Service was fantastic and the food was excellent, especially the stuffing.

Lovely pub, great food and fantastic service. Thanks Brad!

It was a Saturday lunch which was only 1/3 full. But we had been waiting our food for 40mins. We didnt eager the staff, but no one told us how long we still had to wait for our food. The food portion was smaller than other pubs. But the food taste was quite normal. My medium lambs were unexpectedly chewy. After I came home to check our bill, I just realized there was a £2 for peppercorn? We have been many other pubs or British restaurant. Unfortunately this one is not what we expected. The main plate should be around £15, but not worth over £23.

For the last three years we’ve been lucky enough to live in the lane right behind this pub. It’s our regular and hasn’t let us down. We regularly dine here with our young son, it’s very family friendly and welcoming. They have a set course menu during the week and for less than 10 pounds the portion and quality is hard to beat. Sunday roast is also served and well worth it. Good for a pint before the game or a meal during the week with friends or family, highly recommend.

We've eaten Sunday lunch here several times, the food has always been excellent and generous, the dining room upstairs is really nice with a view over Kew Green, the service is good. The Sunday roasts are delicious. A nice treat after a morning visit to Kew Gardens.

Nice place. A little cramped. But lovely view out onto green.

Not a vegetarian/vegan friendly pub! They had burger and a pint on offer for £15 but apparently it didn't include the vegan burger so was charged £17.92 instead without a pint ...

I always have fun at the greyhound. This was about my 10th visit. Service is good, the outside seating area has a real atmosphere and proper heating. The menu always changes to provide some surprises, with prices not too crazy for an expensive area.

sunday roast here was very disappointing. Ate the nutroast, it was very dry. The roast potatoes were pale and some of them were black. The carrots were slightly raw. There was not much food and very overpriced.

The food here is delicious! Had the roast beef followed by donoughts and was the best I’ve had in a long time! Lovely staff and atmosphere too with warm cosy fire.

Had one of the best dinner in a while. I can’t have diary or garlic so always more tricky for me but chef was fantastic adjusted meal and my husband and son had delicious food too. Thank you

Food is very hit or miss. My wagyu burger was practically inedible. Tough and flavorless, and incredibly expensive. Some staff were nice, some not so much.. disappointing.

Nice food good service. Jolly cold inside upstairs though.

Xmas team night out, all food pre ordered. Not sure how they managed to mess up a roast???? I don’t think the parsnips or potatoes saw an oven! Pretty sure it would have been easier to chew a tree. Plates were huge causing the food to get cold very quickly. More positively the starters and desserts were ok. Won’t be rushing back, anytime soon.

Lovely curry and pint to wash down the days dust

Had a family roast with family but very disappointed service was almost non existence had to wait 40 mins to get a drink , potato’s hardly cooked when food finally arrived wouldn’t go back !!

Today we visited the greyhound pub in Chiswick and whilst the food looked great from afar - the food sadly took so long we never got to taste it. As the minutes stretched into over an hour, we found ourselves repeatedly inquiring about our drinks, which had mysteriously gone missing. Regrettably, the staff failed to provide any updates on the status of our food, ultimately prompting us to express our intention to leave. This dining experience was marred by the unfortunate combination of excruciatingly slow service and, in some instances, disrespectful behavior from the staff. It's sad, as we had eagerly looked forward to enjoying the food.

Waited an hour 30 for my food with 3 colleagues, nothing came but our tap water that took 30 minutes itself

Cracking little pub. Had lovely nibbles.. scotch egg, humous and pitta with a pint xc

Really good carvery. Had the 3-person sharer. Lots of meat but the vegetable portions could be a bit more generous. Lovely outdoor garden - and pet friendly. Will definitely be back. Thank you!

Great little Gastropub near Kew Gardens! The roast and the fish and chips were on point and well executed. Service was great, waiter was super polite. Will be back again!

Spent a lovely evening at The Greyhound enjoying a delicious meal in the outside area which has a great range of seating options and is dog friendly. It was very busy but even so the staff were calm, friendly and highly professional and we received attentive service. The food was delicious and well presented. I look forward to visiting again on my next trip to the U.K.

Had a fabulous time here big shout out to Woody /Molly and all the team for great service , food and atmosphere Will definitely be back 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Don't bother with their overpriced roast dinners. We waited 35-40 minutes for a predominantly cold plate of food, needed to get to the Brentford game so just eat what we could. I can't believe the prices. £70+ for a sharing platter of pork which said it was for 3 people. We were a table of 3, ordered an additional individual plate of beef hoping to have a lot of food but the portions were pathetic. Most of the items on the sharer came in items of 2. Like how do 2 Yorkshires feed 3 people? The pork belly was tasty for the little bit of pork and crackling there was but it was predominantly fat and stuffing. The pork tenderloin was horrendously over cooked and could have doubled up as a truncheon for the police that wandered through the pub. The server allowed us to substitute a few things, mainly due to allergies and was attentive to our table (and patient as one of us ran later than our booking) but they 100% need new kitchen staff so service suffers for the wait, temperature, portion size and quality of food, which is kind of everything that's important. Our friend who had the beef said it was excellent but the rest of the plate was poor and couldn't understand how they'd done the hardest part right and failed everywhere else. Sounds about right. May get an extra star if the food was hot but I wouldn't bother again.

To start off the waitress CHRISTIAN was and is an amazing gentleman, he is very very professional, honest, respectful and very caring about our wellbeing:-) very recommended place to have your beer or some food:-) The food is very tasty and good sized portions:-)

Great Sunday roast, fantastically friendly staff, constantly walking around checking everyone is ok. Quick service can’t fault anything really

Hosted a private event in the garden and it was such a beautiful space. The garden is covered and had lots of booths to sit in. We had the burger platters, both veg platter and the fish boards. Everything was delicious, well seasoned and displayed beautifully. Cocktails were nice and strong a d the bar staff prepared everything quickly All of our guests were impressed with everything. We've also been her for a roast prior which was delicious and generous. Recommened the pork roast and pigs in blankets!!

Lovely late Sunday lunch 😋 friendly helpful Staff parsnips were definitely my personal favourite meat was roast beef 😋 perfectly 🥰 cooked enjoyed in the rear garden area highly recommended.

Smart pub with good service and a good range of drinks

We stopped because the food smelled so good from the outside - and we didn't regret it! Lovely pub with a nice atmosphere, plenty of seats and a nice outdoor area too. Everyone was happy with the food. One of my friends had the fish and chips and said it was delicious. The vegan burger was nice but the bun was a bit basic. Still very nice and delicious fries!

Good 👍 polite and friendly staff to NICE.

Highly recommend: good quality food and friendly staff. Olivia was great and made our experience absolutely amazing.

Great Sunday roast! Came here after a walk in Kew Gardens, booked an outside table and it was great. Definitely worth a visit!

Easy to book a table, very tasty meals, nice staff, ... It was perfect for us.

Friendly staff, great atmosphere even though we only went for coffee. Try the cocktail- lemon drop which is excellent.

Torpid service, unremarkable food. Good luck.

Great Sunday roast! Would recommend sharing platters rather than individual plates. Will definitely be coming back for a sunny Sunday roast! Sit in the garden if the weather is good, its lovely!

This gastropub has the ideal combination of a cosy front bar but a lovely covered garden at the back and plenty of dining room inside and upstairs. Food is inventive , service was good and the staff friendly and engaging.

I like the venue, but am put off with pubs trying to be up market places to eat with overpriced food and drinks (and some of the menu not being available for whatever reason). That being said it has a pleasant atmosphere, with a good rear garden and can be considered a good place for a group to hang out (if you don't mind paying over priced prices).

Schöner, typisch britischer Pub! Mit leckeren Drink und gutem Essen. Die Bedienung war außergewöhnlich aufmerksam und freundlich!

Delicious food and really friendly staff, thank you!

The Greyhound, situated close to the southern end of Kew bridge is a great bit of countryside in the heart of London. A good range of beers (from 11am) served in convivial surroundings. Perfect on a sunny day. A fine place for a drink.

Me and my partner came for a meal after finding the venue online as we were staying a short distance across Kew Green. Upon arrival we were cheerfully greeted by a young gentlemen called Eddie who showed us to our table and couldn't have been more accommodating and helpful. The venue itself was clean and tidy whilst being quite busy for a wet Monday evening but service was quick and efficient. My wife ordered a prawn and squid starter which was beautifully cooked and presented whilst I had the scotch egg and once again beautifully cooked. For mains we had chicken and chips and a chicken and leek pie and oh my god the pie (homemade) was gorgeous and so filling! (The only complaint as I couldn't fit in a dessert!) All of this was washed down with a lovely bottle of pinot from the ample wine menu. All in all a wonderful experience and next time we are in the area we shall definitely return!

I have always found the Greyhound so relaxing and the staff are hospitable and friendly. Love the garden, the quiz and the delicious food.

Visited this place to have dinner with friends this is the 3rd time I came I had a good experience previously but I think management has changed poor service don’t even care we need to call literally to the table to take the order very bad experience food was cold thought had starters and left the place. Many staff around but even we need to call to the table for service this is very bad.This is very ridiculous very much disappointed.

Das Essen war sehr gut 👍 der Service war okay

Now at the top of my favourite pubs list! Well done guys - great food, service and ambiance - the view is not at all bad too!

I’m sure the food was lovely - but sadly we didn’t even get the opportunity to taste. Let down. Ordered x2 Sunday lunches, over an hour and a half past, chased up our order and was told they couldn’t find the order, despite the server acknowledging he processed it. Then was told our order was found, and the food would be rushed through and out in 8 mins. 30 mins past and still no food so we walked out. Judging by everyone else’s experience I’m sure this would have been a fab place, but we were let down.

We had an incredible time at lunch here - food, drinks and service were all fantastic. Each and every staff member looked after us and we felt very comfortable here - would HIGHLY recommend! BIG shout out to Eddie for the shots!

Awful. I have a hazelnut allergy. I ordered a nut-free dessert. Without telling me they had run out of it and. they substituted it for a chocolate and hazelnut filling (instead of biscoff). I then had an allergic reaction. This was not taken seriously. Portions were shocking also, had to send back all of our mains.

We visited for a rugby lunch on an international day, so our experience may not be typical of meals at the greyhound. Its a nice pub with nice staff but we were a disappointed with the food. Monkfish scampi sounded good but could have been any white fish in batter. Fish & Chips just tasted greasy. The pub looks really good so we’ll try it again. Hopefully, it will live up to expectations next time. I know restaurant owners say “why didn’t you tell us on the day” but nobody ever asked.

Service could definitely do with improving, especially from the bar. The manager was excellent but other staff just need a bit more training. Ordered an Affagato and it never appeared. The food arrived before drinks. We had to ask for a drink that we could see sitting on the bar for over 5 minutes. Would definitely come back again, but would like to see the service improved. I would recommend the pork roast.

We have just had a superb early Sunday dinner. My roast pork was really delicious. The others had the vegetarian and vegan dishes which they raved about. Great service and a lovely atmosphere made it a wonderful end to a wonderful day at Kew Gardens.

Decent pub overlooking Kew Green. Three cask beers on handpump when I visited. Lots of outdoor seating most of it covered. Varied menu includes pub classics such as fish and chips, sausages and mash and burgers as well as some more imaginitive dishes. Vegan and vegetarian options available. I had a well cooked fillet of Cornish hake accompanied by crayfish and prawn tortellini and it was very tasty.

First time there for party of friend good service didn't eat but what food that was served looked good. Great place for local musicians to perform

Second time I've been in recently. Excellent wine list, super cocktails, sharing platters that are out of this world, topped off this truly thoughtful and exceptional customer service. Will be popping in whenever I get a chance, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for a great venue to relax and have fun with friends and family.

Really nice pub with the gastro element to the superb food, very attentive staff. Beer range was very good would recommend the Proper Job

Un endroit très sympathique à proximité des jardins de Kew. Le gérant est très sympa et aux petits soins, la nourriture est savoureuse et de bonne qualité. De plus, le cadre est vraiment exceptionnel surtout par beau temps. Merci pour l'accueil!

Nice cozy restaurant. Good food. Courteous staff. Nothing special though.

I love this place! The staff are friendly and professional, keen to accommodate with attention to detail. Food is excellent and it’s position on Kew Green is ideal, feels like a village… there is a well appointed large and heated outside area. Treat yourself to possibly the best Sunday roast in Richmond.

Food was absolutely amazing and big portions! Service was great very welcoming staff. My only note is the toilets' floors are really sticky. But would definitely go back again for the food!

Absolutely gorgeous Sunday roast . No wonder it is always fully booked. Food was delicious and the staff were all friendly and engaging.

January 2023 Sunday roast dinner was a Waste of money, the food looks good in photos but £50 later we left hungry, the meat looked good but was all chewy. U got 2 potato’s, I just don’t understand how it can look a good but be so bad. Customer service was bad. The pub looks very pretty. It all looks good. I’m still hungry.

Super relaxed lunchtime, we enjoyed excellent food here yesterday, two wagyu burgers and a vegetarian pithivier. Homemade baby doughnuts filled with caramel and chocolate as a sharer dessert. Pleasantly surprised, the whole lot was delicious. Service very attentive and friendly even if final admin could do with a little finessing. Very reasonable pricing especially for now and especially given the really excellent cheffing.
