We went to the Ram for some Christmas drinks and we couldn't have chosen a better place. The communication was great when agreeing on details and menu options with the general manager Anna. On the day we were greeted by Mariana that looked after us all evening. The atmosphere was lively but not too loud. It was the best costumer service we had in years. Thank you to all the team. We will definitely be coming back.

Good food, a little pricy for what you get but tasted good. Cosy atmosphere but typical pub. Think from reviews I was expecting more. Service was excellent.

The Sunday roast lamb was really poor and the crumble was appalling. The place has gone down the pan since my glowing review here two years ago. I don't mind paying high prices for quality food but £23.50 for the roast lamb was a joke.

Very busy- even at 5pm. Great menu and good food. Only thing was the Monkfish and prawn curry had very little fish in it and the advertised crispy samphire did not arrive. After mentioning the waitress did not charge for this main - so was very reasonable.

Go for the location and a drink, skip the food. I'm a regular. I used to be even more of a regular before they got rid of the quiz on a Sunday (it never came back after Covid). There is a very large selection of (very expensive) beers. The staff a decent, although the long waits at the bar can become tiresome. The food is super-mid and overpriced. Give it a skip. The inside is semi-traditional (yes, this was gutted a while back to look like a gastro pub), with large tables that can cater to large groups. There is regularly live music and a good vibe (the bouncers on a Saturday make sure of it). Where it shines (no pun intended) is outside. The location is a 10/10 especially in the summer - warning when the sun is out, those long waits at the bar quadruple in time. After eating somewhere else, grab yourself a beer and go outside!

Eight of us (plus dog!) had a great Sunday lunch at the Ram. They have a good/wide selection of beers; the food was very good (I would highly recommend the beef roast , tho all roasts were good and the double burgers were very popular at our table!) and most importantly all the Ram team were friendly and helpful, creating a good relaxed Sunday vibe. Thanks John

Lovely place! Although I think it’s quite unprofessional for a staff member with pink hair to be drinking behind the bar with a pint of Guinness on show. I know it’s a pub but that’s not professional at all…

Popped in after dropping my son off to a nearby college. Amazing fish and chips and a great selection of beers. Friendly and efficient service. Garden looked like it would get packed in summer but was quiet on a drab October afternoon. Great location by the river though, would thoroughly recommend a visit.

We visit regularly and yesterday had the worst service I've experienced at any pub.2 staff members were having a very loud conversation at the bar with a lot of swearing and were ignoring customers and laving dirty glasses on tables for so long we eventually took them to the bar ourselves. If a young guy with dark hair and a moustache, and a young blonde girl are working then run because you will get zero service from them!! Very disappointed but found another lovely pub to frequent instead.

If you’re looking for a cozy riverside pub with great food, excellent service, and a relaxed ambience, this spot is a gem. The menu offers a variety of well-prepared dishes, with fresh ingredients and generous portions. The staff is attentive and friendly, making sure you’re well taken care of. The setting by the river adds a lovely touch, whether you’re seated indoors or on the outdoor terrace. Plus, if you’re a dog owner, it’s the perfect spot—pet-friendly and welcoming to four-legged friends, with plenty of space for them to relax. Highly recommended for a great meal or drinks with your furry companion!

Review: Ram Pub Steak Sandwich – wow! The steak sandwich at the Ram Pub is nothing short of extraordinary. Not sure whether to order it as pub steak sandwiches have often let me down . But from the first bite it was clear that this wasn’t your average steak sandwich. The steak was cooked to perfection—tender and juicy, with every bite seemingly melting in my mouth. It’s rare to find a sandwich where the steak holds its own, but this one absolutely shines. What stood out most was the quality of the steak itself. It wasn’t chewy or tough like most pub sandwiches can be; instead, it was as if the steak had been carefully chosen and expertly prepared. Each bite was packed with flavor, making it a truly memorable sandwich experience. If you’re a steak lover or just someone who appreciates a well-crafted sandwich, the Ram Pub’s steak sandwich is a must-try. It’s a perfect example of comfort food done right—simple, delicious, perfect.

Saturday evening, approx 10 to 7; lucky to walk in & find a dining table free instantly, despite 2 large tables reserved for a party. This is a lovely pub, very comfortable seats, & nicely decked out. Not too noisy either; conversation was not a strain here (as it can be in some places where music, & therefore clientele, can get too loud). Very friendly service, good prices &, more importantly, most excellent food! We shared the aromatic 'ssamjang' mushroom on crumpet starter, & both chose the Malabar monkfish & prawn curry, with a shared buttered sweetheart cabbage accompaniment - all absolutely delicious; curry not too hot, & perfectly sized portions. Particularly excellent for me was to find dishes made without dairy milk but not having to choose the vegan option. We didn't notice any dessert menu but with the wonderful taste of the curry, & the memory of the sauce the mushrooms in the starter was cooked in, both lingering on our tastebuds, we didn't want anything else. Anna was such a lovely attentive host with the food & at the bar, + allowing me an extra slug of elderflower cordial when I confessed to liking it strong. I had chosen this pub for food based on an online menu I'd seen, & although a particular interesting dish was no longer on the menu, this didn't matter a bit as the choices were fine, & it's good to know that the menu is updated for variety. We're thinking of coming back again for the Christmas menu, & neither of us live in the vicinity (we were in Kingston for the theatre, from way north of the river). Definitely worth travelling for, & Kingston upon Thames is lovely to walk around anyway.

Lovely place, friendly staff. Good outdoors seating area however need to make more people aware that the outside (above the wooden outdoors area) is technically ‘woodys’ and not theirs, as I went here for a friends birthday in the outside area, wasn’t told about it as we bought drinks and sat there. Ultimately we got removed from the area (woodys top area) which ruined the evening for my friends birthday.

Her attention to detail, friendliness and professionalism is a credit to the organisation and her cheerful and welcoming spirit makes this a pub I want to visit again and again.

A lot of Very rude male staff. not a kid friendly place to stay. Front desk male staff who assisted checking out had a know-it-all atittude. Big male staff wearing coat in the dining hall was loud, strong and unkind to my kid. Even threatened to put my kid in a dark room. The waiter during the wedding we attended banged the wine bottle on our table for no reason. All female staff were kind and nice. Very POOR Customer service from MALE STAFF. Place was very nice but because of the experience from the staff and big man wearing coat our stay became a nightmare.

I ordered their £17.95 'signature burger', the patty was a cheap frozen patty that had been defrosted and heavily grilled (the type which is oddly white inside and you would get if you ordered a burger in a soft play centre). Took one bite and sent it back for the fish and chunky chips. The fish was ok, but the chips were obviously frozen and just chucked in the oven. Credit to the waiter who didn't argue with replacing the food, but good customer service doesn't make up for the rubbish food and high prices.

Lots of character in this pub - I love the vibe of the clientele and the vibe. However, the bartender couldn’t have been more disinterested in service. I politely asked if I could taste a beer. Her sighs were exasperating after my request and she reluctantly slammed glass on the counter. I felt like I was asking for a kidney donation. I brushed it off and thanked her profusely after my order, with a smile. Came back later for another round and it was even worse. At best, she was having a bad night but there are still basic ways of treating customers so they don’t feel like intruders.
