The Marlborough in Richmond upon Thames

Today was our first visit because we were looking to find the best roast dinner in Richmond. If you’re looking for the same come to this place and you won’t be disappointed. The food was outstanding, the service so nice and the atmosphere very friendly and cosy. We will be coming back soon!

Such a great visit with the family after a long walk at Richmond Park. The garden was a hidden gem. Ordered 3 different roasts and could not fault a single thing. The staff were so friendly and informative and gave great recommendations. Highly recommended and cannot wait to return

Come down for a weekend in London, we came here on a Sunday and had Sunday roast dinner was amazing and the staff where amazing thankyou once again would highly recommend

top restaurant nice environment, very with staff after a nice conversation with the manager got a drink top the hamburger is definitely recommended

first time certainly not the last time beautiful surroundings to have walked in richmond definitely recommended to eat here afterwards and enjoy the british cuisine. top and another super top

Firstly the pub setting is beautiful with high ceilings which gives off a not crowded vibe. The staff were very attentive and the food came out in quick time. We ordered pork belly and two beef roasts and the meat portions were very generous especially the pork belly! Staff happy to provide more apple sauce! Pub dog was gorgeous aswell… sorry our little cockypoo was abit hobby!

Very good food and even better staff, so much better than my last visit at the marlborough

Woow, what an amazing place you guys, best roast Lamb i have ever had, great experience indeed, the host very welcoming and the server even better, great place you have

Best place in town without a question, best staff and best food. Thans to our server Katy

Ashok was fantastic and kind! Would recommend to anyone

Fantastic food and service!! Special mention to Katie- she made our large group very comfortable

Very friendly pub with a good garden 👍

We came here as a group of 10 with 3 young children. Food was good, service was excellent and they were very accomodating with the chaos of the kids. There’s a little section with kids toys which was a welcome addition. Special mention to Ashok who went above and beyond!

Omg its so tasty here. Service was immense and I recommend to a friend

Solid boozer. Great garden. Crispy Asahi. 5/5

Fantastic service, a South African couldn’t be happier

Amazing tasty shots. Loved it. So good I ordered two roasts. Way better than the roebuck

Lovely atmosphere great service love this place

Brilliant service, super friendly and a lovely big beer garden with table service!

Atmosphere is great, warm ambience, quick service, guys behind the bar were friendly. Pinot Grigio was lovely.

Great place to chill with friends with food and drink! Top service.

Hidden gem in richmond! Avoid the overcrowded 'popular' pubs on the river and if you want actual service, proper food (huge portions but no let up in quality) and an atmosphere come here!

Very busy place with the most epic garden. The server was so friendly and patient with us ordering food with allergies. Chicken salad & fish & chips were both so great and even better they could offer it gluten free. The service was just amazing with the recommendations and would highly recommend the Deya gluten free beer was delicious. Very dog friendly and seeing Zeus was just a bonus to our visit. Thank you and will see you soon

Came here with friends and family, beer garden is amazing! With great selection of beers, wines, and cocktails. Also the food was amazing only having little picky bits from the starters. Would definitely recommend the sausage roll & prawns. Speedy service and such a great atmosphere.

Very quiet lunchtime in huge sheltered garden, excellent service, very good food (though not cheap). Will definitely return.

Hosted a party here and it was fab! Great service and everyone had the best time. Thank you Usha and lovely team.

Local reviewing here. Lovely team, cosy pub and big garden. Cracking roast you can trust. Banging burger (and vegan burger). Can’t go wrong.

We went to the Marlborough yesterday. My Mum was visiting, and I wanted to show her THE BEST Sunday roast in London. As always the food was out of this world… Unfortunately there was a group of people that were quite difficult - showing a lack of respect to other customers as well as staff. However, the staff at the Marlborough were absolutely fantastic - dealing with the said party with utmost professionalism - making us feel truly valued in the process. I can’t wait to go back, 10/10 spot - couldn’t recommend enough.

Had lunch at the Marlborough yesterday and the food and service were outstanding. Highly recommended!

A good pub with an extensive beer garden, great for the summer. Drinks are above average prices. A bit too busy with small children and dogs at peak times, though.

Great food and the best garden in the area. Staff couldn't do more for you. Perfect after a walk around Richmond Park

Come here quite often and cannot express how amazing this pub is. Staff are always so friendly and make sure i am happy, very accommodating and always so helpful and go the extra mile to make sure i am happy. Food has always been great but the service has always been even better

Amazing dinner experience. lovely burger fresh and juicy. Highly recommend 👌 top service 👌

We booked for the Sunday roast over the last weekend. The service was good and food was tasty and good quality. However it was only warm and not hot enough for either of us. Not even the gravy could warm it up. We did mention it and the waitress kindly offered to exchange it but by that time we’d both eaten half of our meal anyway and so we declined. We did say it wasn’t a complaint but wanted to give the feedback t those producing the food. I enjoyed the flavour of what we had and I would be happy to consider eating here again. But I would just ask ahead of the meal for it to be severed hot.

I visited the Pub on Monday evening, Did order beef burgers and couple of pints for me and my friend, burger was really tasty and fresh, The server name Tiger was very charming and polite. Thank you, The Malborough staff.

Food was really tasty and such a nice atmosphere with lovely staff. Was really supportive in the fact I was doing my essay too and the service was great. I really recommend the fish and chips!

I was at your pub with few friends and their kids and hand on heart I have never seen a better and friendlier pub for families and kids, our server was amazing and kind and the food was really delicious, I can see why you have so many great reviews and we will be back very soon even though we don’t live close by. Big thank to all the staff

Martin did a great quiz night and we had so much fun! He was so accommodating and made it very enjoyable!

Martin led a fantastic quiz night! We all had a great time, in a great atmosphere. Sinking drinks, laughing and enjoying some trivia of manageable challenge. Great time!

I had a fantastic time at The Marlborough Pub in Richmond – easily one of the best pub experiences I've had in a while. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, the drinks were great, and the food hit the spot. But what really made the evening special was the host, Martin. Martin brought the night to life with his infectious energy and charm. He created and ran the pub quiz, which was genuinely brilliant – clever, entertaining, and perfectly pitched for a crowd looking to have fun and be challenged in equal measure. You could tell he put real thought and effort into it, and his enthusiasm was totally contagious. If you're in Richmond and looking for a relaxed yet lively spot with great service and personality, I can’t recommend The Marlborough highly enough. Martin, you're a legend – thank you for such a memorable night!

Located in beautiful Richmond, this pub was a gem. Cute both inside and outside.

Great local pub with large garden with covered/heated and uncovered tables. Relaxed atmosphere and cosy decoration. Service always friendly and prompt and food is generally very good perhaps a little pricier than expected.

We came here as the google reviews were good and they were dog friendly. However the food wasn’t great. One of us ordered the pork belly which was cold and had to get sent back. The second round, the pork belly was very fatty and the meat part was very dry and hard. The crackling was so hard we couldn’t bite into it. The staff told us this was normal that it’s hard. We also ordered the roast beef which was very chewy, it was a struggle to cut into it and eat. The staff suggested to change a new one that has less fat in it. I did see her go into the kitchen to change it herself and making sure it was better slices which was appreciated. The second one was better, but it wasn’t tender. After changing our dish once, the second round still wasn’t great. The staff did come and offer us steak knives to help eat. At this point we were really hungry and couldn’t ask to change it again. The Yorkshire puddings were huge but they were dry and hard. The vegetables were okay, nothing exciting. We were quite disappointed in the Sunday roast. Staff were nice and tried their best to make it better. It’s a nice looking pub but don’t think we will return for the food.

We went for a lovely Sunday Roast on Easter Sunday and it was such a beautiful space outside. The roast beef is what I would recommend. My son ordered the beef and I the chicken - I just found the chicken slightly less flavoured but all the sides were great. I’d go again and try the lamb but my son loved the beef and will be sticking to it. I recommend a visit if you haven’t been!

Very nice place, good service, good food. I loved the fish pie! They also have a lot of children books, toys, colouring pencils, which makes this place super family friendly❤️

Food was absolutely delicious and our waiter Ashok was fantastic, super helpful and friendly. Will be back!

Amazing place with great staff and great food

Lovely garden setting. Ashok looked after us perfectly, give this guy a pay rise as he goes the extra mile.

Absolutely love this pub. Been coming for years and current management have particularly made it so special. The menu and the vibes are 10/10 whether it’s a daytime lunch or an evening drink. Would definitely recommend!!

A warning - if you want a shandy on a hot day, this pub will charge the price of PINT OF BEER, as in £6.50. Never experienced this before, not planning on returning.

Wonderful experience, thank you to the team for catering for our group of 30 so brilliantly.

What a besutiful pub and an even better garden. The staff were very helpful and the fish and chips was one of the best i had. Thank you and see you soon.

What a pub, so family friendly, the way they looked after my son and made sure he was happy and settled with their children section…just unreal. Will make sure we let all our family friends know. We will be back.

A Beautiful pub which looks small from the outside, but has an incredible beer garden at the back. I have had vegan starters here which were really tasty, but look forward to enjoying a drink and some pub grub here in the garden in the summer!

Fantastic experience! Beautiful place delicious food and excellent service, the staff was very friendly and helpful . The atmosphere was wonderful , would totally recommend . Well done and see you soon!

Great experience. Been here a few times but a first for Sunday roast. Even though they’d sold out of the vegan wellington (which is probably a testament to its goodness), Katy accommodated my vegan order to make sure I didn’t miss out on the Sunday roast experience. Would definitely recommend this place as a great way to spend your Sunday with family and friends since it has plenty of space to make sure you get a mix of both cozy and lively atmosphere.

Felt like I was treated differently as a woman and felt generally unwelcome.

As my local I couldn't ask for a better pub! Great pints and an awesome Sunday roast. Would recommend this pub to anyone visiting Richmond!

What a beautiful pub and very attentive staff however the food was a huge let down. The roast beef was so tough and inedible, gravy is very watery and portion sizes are small.

Came in with my friends for the first time. We were made to feel very look after by the manager and our waiter immediately. I’d heard the roasts were good and they definitely lived up to expectations. Brilliant experience!

I had an amazing experience at The Marlborough! The atmosphere was welcoming, the service was excellent, and the food was absolutely delicious. Each dish was full of flavor and expertly prepared. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food and a fantastic dining experience!

We recently had my son’s baptism celebration here and it all went so well. The staff went above and beyond to make a large group feel welcome and helped with any needs. Everyone loved it and a few are now coming back for individual bookings

Brilliant service and lovely atmosphere

Great food and location but main room we were seated in did not have the fire on so a little cold and not the cosy pub we wanted.

I was amazed by this restaurant it was amazing and I will definitely go back again

Great Sunday at the Marlborough food amazing considering how busy it was and team very friendly and well done again

Lovely pub garden and great quiz on thursdays

Go to the quiz with a few friends on a Thursday. Always a great time! Really good for dinner too. Martin was a fab quiz host!

Very good Sunday lunch with great friendly service and good food. The pork roast was excellent but the lamb was a big tough otherwise it would have been perfect.

If you wanna eat the best food in a stunning location with an outstanding service please book or simply pop in. The staff is amazing. Everything was perfect.

This is the best pub in Richmond in my opinion. Wonderful friendly and attentive team. Great food and a cosy environment!

Wow what an amazing experience. The staff are so friendly and kind. Usha , katy, Jerry and ani were helpful and served the best vegan roast. I loved it and will return. I love how it's dog friendly and enjoyed meeting a few friends. I will bring my cavalier in the early summer on my next uk visit. Love katie

We had a lovely Sunday Lunch in a fun friendly warm pub. It was great to see so many dogs coming in and out as well.

Great atmosphere and a good service. We will be back

Really nice pub with some of the nicest staff I’ve been served by in a long time. Really tasty food and solid portion sizes with a really nice atmosphere. Also dog friendly, and I’m pretty the dog wants to come back as much as we do!

Very nice pub to eat and drink , we hade enjoyed our valentines, very nice food and great service, excellent atmosphere. Thank you and see soon ☺️

Excellent food and drinks. Service amazing !

Very good food and lovely atmosphere, team very friendly

Good burger, nice pub usually busy

We love this pub! And clearly our dogs do too. Thankful for vegan options and such a dog-friendly atmosphere!

We recently celebrated a birthday at The Marlborough in Richmond, hiring out the Garden Room for a private gathering, and we couldn’t have been happier with our experience. The venue itself is lovely—warm, inviting, and with a great atmosphere. The food was outstanding, exceeding our expectations, and the service was truly exceptional. A huge thank you to Martin and his team, who went above and beyond to ensure the evening ran smoothly. Their attentiveness and professionalism made all the difference, allowing us to relax and enjoy the celebration. We’ll definitely be returning for food, and we highly recommend The Marlborough for both casual dining and private events. An all-around fantastic experience!

Great friendly pub with smiley staff , welcoming atmosphere Excellent sausages & mash washed with wine! Dog v welcome 🙏🏽

Been to Marlborough last weekend and our experience was way better than we expected to be honest, food was delicious and the staff very professional and welcoming. Highly recommended

What can I say, still in food shock, gammon knuckle to die for, amazing experience love the pub

Nice evening at the pub with colleagues. Clean environment and fast service. Good food for pub standards

Been there with my family and had a wonderful time and the food and service was beyond imagination. Would surely plan to be back again soon..

Very good food and lovely atmosphere, team very friendly

Came 2 weeks ago and had the pastry Camembert…game changer! Was so delicious would highly recommend!

Had a yummy family meal here. Food was great, even the children ate all their food. The staff were lovely. It's also dog friendly too with lots of space. Great pub, we will be back!

We had such a delicious Sunday Roast here! Everything was cooked to perfection. Chicken Roast was soooo juicy and full of flavour. All the drinks we had were of a great quality as well. The pub is clean and the atmosphere buzzing. Thank you for the great experience!

Service and food is great. Staff is amazing

We ordered a burger, and since the meat was undercooked, we kindly asked them to cook it a bit more. However, they went above and beyond by preparing a completely new one, even though we mentioned it wasn’t necessary. The service was outstanding, and the attention to detail was remarkable. A big thank you to the entire team for their warm welcome, excellent service, and for ensuring our satisfaction. Truly amazing! ❤️

Had a lovely time at this pub. We were served by Katy, who was lovely and made our time here even better! Great service, great pub.

Food was very good (huge portions for roast dinners and good options) team were very accomodating with last minute changes for large table. All in agreement that we're looking forward to going back again.

What a great pub! Went for a Sunday Roast and the atmosphere was buzzing, food was delicious. It was very busy so it took us a while for the wait staff to get around to our table to take orders, but not unexpected for a peak hour lunch on a Sunday in Richmond.

An amazing local pub! Love the atmosphere, food and service. Extra points for Zeus, the most adorable dog😍

One of the best places in town. The location is amazing if you want to enjoy a super meal or drink something. I absolutely recommend it! See you soon!

Came to the pub last week for the first time and was so enjoyable. Lovely cozy pub with such friendly staff. We got asked to join in the quiz and just wow. So much fun and was so different. The host was so lovely and made sure we all felt comfortable and welcomed. We didn’t win but will definitely return and try our luck next time. Thank you

How you think you can serve food that sub standard is beyond comprehension. Squid that is more batter than squid, and burgers that have bone in them, and are clearly from Brake Brothers discount section…stop ripping people off Young’s

Great location first of all and had the best sunday in a while, very good indeed
