Tide Tables in Richmond upon Thames

A lovely spot by the river Thames in Richmond. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options are available. There is a wonderful range of hot or cold food and desserts. You can sit inside or out on the terrace. And there is free wifi! It’s a place that you could easily while away the hours in. And the staff are lovely. It can get busy at times, not surprisingly as it’s a popular location.

Great vegetarian cafe in fantastic location by the bridge over the Thames So many places have only limited choice for non meat eaters - here the whole menu is dedicated to them. Lovely salads to go with the heated options. Good range of cakes etc and excellent coffee with such friendly staff

Good Food, though moderately expensive : 3 Quiches and salads + 1 Peroni = £42.00 Warm cafe temp - was cool outside. Disappointed no customer toilets - would not have chosen here if I had known this before dining.

This is a lovely spot just by the river under the bridge. Great coffee and super friendly staff. Large outside area to sit and watch the world go by !

Location was excellent but overall experience was somewhat underwhelming. Range of food was good, but disappointed with quality. I ordered a pistachio topped cake which was extremely dried (poorly presented crumbly chunk on a small plate). I ordered a flat-white and an americano, but had to return as coffee was too bitter (Staff did immediately replace though). If more attention is given to presentation and quality, there is great potential for improved reviews.

I came here with a mum who was on a diet and there were v limited options. She ended up with basically a bowl of cucumber and tomato. I had a frittata that was fine. It has big crowds because of the location, but was slow to serve inside. There are much better places for lunch in Richmond.

Great service, great food & a great view to enjoy it with. Once they were closed in the evening when we went to grab some snacks. Although their tills were closed, Mihai managed to gave us some nibbles saying that this was a part of their service towards the customer & we can pay later. This was such a great gesture from Mihai & such gestures go far. Well done Mihai & team at tide table cafe.

Love that it's been there for ever and is the other end of the spectrum from a chain cafe. Good food/tea/coffee, really cosy - and if the weather is OK you can sit under a beautiful tree and watch the world go by on the river and path.

Great coffee, service & location! Also great selection of cakes! Look forward to my next visit, Thank you!

So poor that one of our group was ill afterwards! Totally overpriced quiche £6, overwhelmed staff, long queues, run out of food at 12.45pm on a Sunday! Tide tables does not deserve their location at present.

Was very pleasantly surprised to come across this with my boyfriend! Fairly pricey, but that was to be expected in Richmond. Great range of options, including more unusual and original vegan lunch options which was really nice to see. Lovely setting too.

We love this little cafe by the river. Good wholesome food. Nice coffee. Wonderful location. Definitely recommended.

My daughter and I walked along the riverbank from Twickenham to try this cafe - well worth the walk! As vegans, it was great to find a choice of several tasty, filling and unusual tarts (£5.95 each). The Sweet Potato and Apricot, in particular, was delicious and has inspired me to attempt to recreate it when I get home!! There were also a number of delicious vegan cakes (about £3.75 - £3.95 per slice). Staff were friendly and helpful. They are currently only serving food to take out but there are lots of tables on their terrace which you can sit at. Would definitely recommend.

We were sitting on the Thames riverside at Richmond and saw super happy couples drinking freshly poured pints sitting in the sun on the grass.! Regrettably in one way plastic cups...but this is corona times. Checked out where they got if from. With a very big smile the shared the secret:Tide Tables Cafe now has freshly poured German Lager!Taking no chances I went and tried....probably the best beer I had ever. In the sun. On the River!Sheer heaven!Will be back....a lot!

Walked in, cafe was empty. Two staff members behind the counter concentrating hard on their mobile phones. Waited for a few minutes & then asked them if they could help us. 20 seconds later after finishing on the phone, they spoke. Was then told that all the food was labelled, so we needn't ask what each pastry type was. Then the other staff member apologised & said that actually they were not labelled correctly. The pastries were reheated but were very average. The cauliflower pie actually had no cauliflower. I asked if it was the correct pie & they looked up from their phone again & said yes. Would have been better calling it a mixed veg pie.With plenty of options in this area, would not return. Would also recommend some staff etiquette when it comes to use of phones.

This was the second time i visited and i had a similar experience to the last. The staff were unfriendly and rude which was also noticed by the people i was with. Was also overcharged for my food. Not impressed and wont be visiting again.

Place is having wonderful view, super delicious cakes, fresh salads and staff is amazing very helpful and polite especially one very beautiful young dark hair lady! Definitely will visit again!!!

This is a quirky vegetarian cafe set in one of the tunnels under the Richmond Bridge. I had a satisfactory spinach and cheese quiche and nice salads. The coffee was just okay. It’s quick-serve food from Bain Marie’s which is either eaten outside on plastic furniture overlooking the Thames or inside at clunky little plastic-covered tables. Good for a quick, healthy lunch.

Went here with baby for lunch. Excellent range of quiche and salads. Staff were busy but friendly. We ate outside by river, but pigeons were straight away trying to get at food. A real nuisance. Don’t sit at metal tables, because these are the ones the pigeons seem to like most. Staff attentive in clearing away empty plates. Good value for money and good portion sizes

Went in for a coffee and the staff were extremely rude and unfriendly. No smile on their faces. I think a change of staff is desperately needed. The place is also ridiculously expensive.

This cafe is located under the bridge and has a wonderful view of the river.some indoor tables and so many in the open air outside under the old and beautiful trees shade.Right down the cafe,there are boats to hire,amazing view.This Cafe has some gluten free options and so many vegan cakes and some food as well:))We love it,it’s one of our favorites;)

Friendly staff and cafe has lovely curved roof due to being under a bridge arch plus use of a public terrace under massive plane tree. Tasty plant based food, selection of hot and cold dishes and cakes. Great for people watching on the river front, relaxed atmosphere.

Tide Tables is a lovely little cafe set into the undercroft of Richmond Bridge. Compact and busy inside but there is a huge space outside with tables allowing you to eat, drink, sit and watch the world go by, and float by as this location has rat views of the river Thames. Very friendly efficient fast working staff, and lovely food. If you want a place to refuel, sit and relax you won't find a better palce. Highly recomended

We stopped at this wonderful neighborhood cafe while visiting Richmond. The cafe is set on the top of a small hill surrounded by beautiful gardens with the Thames River in the distance. We enjoyed some tea and scones in the outside eating area while taking in the beautiful view. There are a few small tables inside the cafe as well.

I love this little cafe tucked away under the arches of Richmond bridge. Whatever the weather, you can pick up tea, coffee, hot chocolate or some vegan food and sit outside watching life go by on the river. Total treasure.

This is one of our main stopping points in Richmond. Head and shoulders above some of the posher places partly for the enthusiasm of its staff and partly its informality, Excellent range of food and beverages.

We stopped for coffee at this cafe, its in a great location next to the river and Richmond bridge. The is a large outside area with table and chairs that are well spaced out which was great as my 2 year old son could run around and enjoy himself while we enjoyed the coffee.

Have been many times hoping it will improve but it never does. Just not very organized or set up for dealing with more than a few people at a time. Usually chaotic in the ordering and serving of food / drinks. Good selection of vegetarian / vegan (?) food though and friendly staff. Sadly it is hugely overpriced - even for Richmond. Lovely riverside seating area that can be used by anyone. Do yourself a favour, but a cake a nd a coffee elsewhere and have it by the river.

The cake was delicious and fresh! Love drinking coffee at this place with this view ! Suggest this place after a walk at the bank of the river ended up having a coffee, stretching your legs by the Thames, enjoying a quiet Sunday afternoon.

Such a great spot on the river. Very busy, but we always get a table. Great coffeee and lovely cakes.Service good and friendly

We love to come and enjoy a delicious coffee on a bright day in their impressive garden on the Thames. A very popular choice for locals and tourists alike. You won't regret visiting this cafe

This is my favourite place to stop and have a coffee break in Richmond, besides the fab riverside location is has great homemade cakes, pastries, quiches and salads, suitable for vegans and vegetarians, dog friendly, plenty of tables and chairs outside to sit and enjoy the views over the Thames.

This cafe under Richmond bridge was our 1st stop during the charity walk we took for Calcutta Rescue on a beautiful Saturday.. nice and standard cafe with a great view of the Thames and Richmond bridge if you are seated outside.. had a cup of tea and carrot cake which was good.. quite a bit of space they have outdoors.. perfect during summer time.. overall good..

I am coming to Richmond pretty often, and when I walk with the dog I stop by for coffee. This place is the spot to be to relax outside at the sun and enjoy the river with it’s beautiful colored trees around. I love that they even have some candy for dogs for free. It’s a pet loving cafe and also the cakes and fresh prepared coffee is delicious. I can’t wait to get back to Richmond because it got a routine to visit Tide Tables. Enjoy the pics I took from the cafe.

Great location right by the river under Richmond Bridge. Veggie food a bit plain but ok. Good place to sit outside and soak up the ambience of the riverside.

I've known this cafe for a long time and eat here occasionally. It's a veggie place and is always busy. A group of us stopped by for lunch after a 5 mile walk. It was busy being an unexpectedly nice day. We managed to put a few tables together outside so that we could sit together. We had a variety of the food on offer and it was all OK. Our samosa's were flavourless however and needed a good dash of chilli sauce to brighten things up. People don't have to buy food to use the garden are but many sat facing the river, sipping tea and shooing birds!

Arrived yesterday at 4pm to find cafe empty and about four tables outside with customers. No staff around. After two minutes a young man entered from outside and walked behind the counter, ignored us whilst adjusting his hair and eventually came to take our order. Without smiling or welcome he merely said “yes”? We asked for two teas which he originally priced at £4.50 then decided he was going to charge £5. No explanation or apology. Have used this cafe and recommended it before but they need to get their staff training sorted.

Right by the Thames under a bridge. Masses of outside seating with the shade of trees. Lovely salads and other food and snacks. Good coffee. A great place to meet friends or pause whilst walking along beside the river.

Love sitting on Tide Tables Terrace, people watching & looking at the rowing boats & beautiful Richmond Bridge. Cafe is quite good, been coming here for 25 years, never had a problem with staff, location on a warm summer day under a canopy if London Plane trees is unbeatable.

Stroppy pensioners in the queue in front of us complaining about a lack of syrup in coffee .... I saw it being added !!!

Richmond is swimming in coffee shops but take a step away from the high street and nestled under Richmond Bridge is this little gem. Lovely outside riverside seating area. Small amount of indoor seating. Good range of sweet and savoury snacks and more.

I found this place to be the opposite to many. We had the weather so maybe that made it appear to be just right. We sat outside and had great coffee with a superb view, It was so relaxing we went twice.

Only stopped for a cup of tea and it looked a great location on a hot sunny afternoon.

The rudest most stone faced staff ever, (except for one young lad).

On a sunny afternoon this cafe spread out over the park was a great place for a cup of tea and just watch the world go by. Lots of tables and lots of seats so it doesn't feel crowded. Come here to read your book and just watch the river. Reasonable selection of nibbles.

I very rarely feel the need to leave a review, but most of the staff here are very rude! They were very snappy and Made us feel unwelcome. Won’t be back!

The ambiance the food choices sweet and savoury to die for.busy place but still with calming effect. Staff lovely and hard working You will be spoilt for choice with the apertising tasty delights on display. Really hreat value for money too

Called in for a coffee whilst walking the Thames Path.

I wrote a very hostile review in January, so it’s only fair to acknowledge that their compulsory vegan approach to coffee didn’t last long! Ordinary milk and nice snacks returned by the end of that month, giving me one less thing to be Meldrewesque about...

Suddenly I fancied a coffee, just as I was walking over Richmond Bridge, from the Twickenham side of the Thames. This bridge is believed to be the oldest bridge across the river, by the way.

Often attend this lovely little cafe with our dog after a walk on Richmond Green or along the thames. Prefer to visit when we can sit outside overlooking the Thames as its one of the most relaxing places I've visited. Nice choice of snacks and drinks and unlike some reports on this site we have never been upset by prices or quality. Sunday morning is our Favourite time as everyone appears more laid back. Would have been five but sometimes looks like it could do with a good clean up or a lick of paint but they have my trade.

The price for two lattes, a beetroot slice of quiche and a spinach and ricotta pastry? £18.00... absolutely ridiculous prices. The two women that were serving were awful and unhelpful. The restaurant was also freezing! Do not recommend at all. Avoid!

All vegan for January 2018 only. Wide choice of savoury and sweet vegetarian food and cakes. Cafe is under Richmond Bridge, cosy with arched brick roof and seating outside. Best seats are by the river where you can watch the world go by including ducks and rowing boats.

I've been a regular customer of Tide Tables for years now, and have always enjoyed sitting out by the river having a latte and snack after a riverside walk, as well as appreciating the friendly staff. It has recently gone vegan, with a somewhat pompous notice telling us about the moral shortcomings of the milk industry to explain why I'm now denied the simple pleasure of a decent latte. I don't want oat milk, or the other unspeakable options. They've taken away the range of biscotti, homemade cookies and nata pastries and only offer a vegan gluten free bar which I couldn't finish. OK, I can go up into the centre of Richmond and choose from a range of cafes, but I'd rather watch the river than the traffic. It's fine to promote the non dairy options but to make them compulsory is to ignore this cafe's role as a community facility.

This place is a 3.5 - not a 3 nor a 4. We had a reasonable lunch here; the Vegan menu was ok for a change, the food was quite tasty. It’s a bit expensive for what it is, tbh - &10.95 for a very small vegan quiche and a bowl of salad is rather OTT. Tbh though the salads are quite big - you could get away with one between 2, though that’s still then £8 or sth for a not-extravagant lunch.

I have been using this cafe for years, unfortunately I cannot use it anymore the reason is that they have decided to go vegan.

I would like to give 5 starts if it was not because the poor customer service. Lack in a warm welcome, not helpful at the time to choose or seeking advice. They were polite because they had no option. I felt like if I was annoying them. Maybe they do not like their job. Anyways I still recommending this place.

Right by the river with tables outside too. Bike store outside so cyclists are regulars. As are dog walkers it seems. popular with mums and babies/tots too, easy with a buggy. Only had coffee but all the food looked fresh and homemade. Various milks available too. Nice spot, convenient.

Wide choice of savoury and sweet vegetarian food and cakes. Cafe is under Richmond Bridge, cosy with arched brick roof and seating outside. Best seats are by the river where you can watch the world go by including ducks and rowing boats.

Came for a business meeting and had a lovely lunch. There are tables outside right by the river or some inside. There is a good choice of food and drink, including clearly labelled vegan options. All the food is vegetarian and all the things we chose were delicious, particularly the butternut squash and bean pie.

By the river beautiful, food fab all fresh and wholesome. Good coffee fantastic cakes helpful staff what more is there to say best cafe in Richmond.

The location is really great - sitting by the Thames at the outside bit at the back is great. The food is pretty average but is OK. Feels a bit veggie, but there are some meat options I think. Better in the summer than the winter, although inside is cosy enough if a bit crowded.

Stopped off here for afternoon tea and coffees. Tables are outside and while the location was very good our experience was not enjoyed due to the pigeons about. Appreciate there is not much they can do about that though!

I like dropping into Tide Tables since it's on my dog walk from Richmond to the Hammerton's Ferry. Pastries and coffee are usually nice by the bridge. But unfortunately the service is unpredictable. The chap who served me today was completely out of his depth and unsupervised. The coffee he made was little better than instant and he forgot to stir the Mocha (even on his second attempt!). The result was undissolved cocoa sludge in the bottom. I complained but got no apology or refund. When you're paying the high prices TT charge you expect better than greasy spoon service. I hope they sort themselves out for my next visit otherwise I'm upscaling to Bill's or Gauchos.

Se trata de un pequeño local junto al río que dispone de mesas en el interior, en el exterior y sillas mirando al río. Nos lo habían recomendado por las tartas y la recomendación era muy acertada. En particular, la mía de chocolate, es una de las más sabrosas que he probado en mi vida: riquísima!!!! Aunque el día estaba frío, mirar al paseo con la gente caminando, los barquitos, los patos, los árboles mientras se disfruta del break dulce es un momento con mucho encanto.

Have walked by this place daily and today we decided to visit for lunch. Great for outdoor eating by the river, fast and friendly service, impressive selection of food...veggie, gf & vegan. We ordered the veg lasagne with side salad and the falafel plate. Both dishes were served in generous amounts - the side salad was like a main sized salad (for me) but good selection of three types (classic, chick pea and greek) so you're not overloaded with lettuce. Lasagne was huge but moorish and the falafels were quite large and came with a salad, humous and a bread roll. TASTY!Will definitely eat and get take away from here. If anything just a little on the expensive side (£25 for two lunches with two fizzy drinks) but then with a view like this one, the fresh quality, generous portions, great selection and friendly service...forgiven :-)

Lovely spot for coffee or light meal by the river. Good choice of healthy options, dog friendly, cycle friendly.

lovely home style cooked vegetarian food and salads. there's a good variety of dishes. there's seating inside but it's nice to sit outside along the river. reasonable prices and the service is good.

Popped in and had a coffee. It's tucked away under the arches of the bridge - door is at the bottom of the steps down to the river. It has a very relaxed atmosphere. Food looked good but I didn't have time to stop. Only negative was the loo area.

An excellent vegetarian option on the river side. Good size portions. Always a queue which is always a good sign. Really enjoyed my chickpea curry. I'm not a vegetarian myself but there's plenty here to enjoy. Faddy eaters paradise

We visit weekly as it is situated beautifully on the river. There are almost always tables available to have a sit outside, but there are chairs and a high-wall to rest your legs if you want to do some people watching. The coffees (especially the Flat Whites) and the mezze style food is wonderful! It is a bit pricey, but the quality is there. I recommend their quiches.

The sign on the pavement outside drew me in. Twigged quickly that this was some sort of veggie/vegan joint, but thought I would give it a whiz. Side salad and macaroni seemed to fit the bill. The macaroni was freshly made, but took a while to warm up (no microwave maybe?). The side salad was excellent. Not too crowded - rapid turnover, and the open area is a delight with a view of the Thames. Staff busy but friendly. Big up the Tides!

Stopped here for lunch didn't realise it was vegetarian/vegan but that was no problem as there was enough choice. I chose the quiche which looked lovely and kind of 'homemade' and it came with a nice salad. On returning to get cake the illusion was somewhat shattered by the staff removing the quiches from plastic packaging. Had I not seen this I would have gone away quite happy with my choice but I just felt a little let down. Not that it said anywhere it was homemade but that was the kind of look they appeared to want to portray. Suggest unpacking food out of sight of customers in the future, As others have said it wasn't cheap but reasonably tasty and a lovely view.

Great place under the bridge by the river. Friendly, a bit quirky, vegetarian menu with vegan, gluten free and things well catered for.I had the Chick Pea Curry which was **WOW** - stunningly good (and I am a rampant carnivore) and a glass of delicious freshly squeezed Orange Juice.Great value too ........

Owned and run by the same people who have Hollyhocks Cafe on Richmond Terrace. Tide Tables is organic, rustic and perfectly positioned to break your Riverside stroll with a latte and home made cake!

The food there wasn't cheap at all.They serve only vegetarian that I see the menu. The main is £9,50 with salad.The cheese Marconi was just little like 30pieces. The chocolate cake is £3,70. It only next of the bridge. The cappuccino is £2,90.

We often stop here when out for a river walk or cycle. best in summer when you can sit outside, but inside is cozy

It has a perfect location with plenty of space for outdoor seating in what was a dry and sunny afternoon. The food sadly doesn't quite hit the mark. The microwave is used liberally - we witnessed a scone going in at one point. Carrot cake was too dry, and other cakes were not labelled. Staff not really communicative - we ordered our drinks and cakes twice; didn't know what the cakes were - and didn't spot where someone had clearly spilled drink under the chairs inside when clearing tables. Shame, could have been so much better.

Great place for watching the world go by....... sat along the river and had coffee and cake here on a sunny Sunday afternoon. The queue however, to get served, took forever but the cake was lovely; once my other half arrived back 25 minutes later! Good coffee!!!

Afternoon wander around Richmond and we were in desperate need of sustenance. Ambled in expecting a traditional coffee shop/cream teas etc., but was glad to see more substantial food. Then, there was the "where is the ham/chicken sandwiches?" moment followed by the hastily tracking through the menu trying to find something that I thought I'd like moment (whilst the girl serving impatiently waited for an order). We finally decided on spinach and ricotta filo rolls and tea followed by an almond pastry and a black cherry bakewell. Got to say they were all very nice. Surroundings were a little quirky, being an arch under the Thames bridge approach. I'm sure it could get a little cramped at busier times, but all in all a good find. Only improvement would be a nicer attitude from the young girl who served us as she seemed more interested in talking to the bloke who appeared to be the boss.

This is a really neat spot. I was there when it was not busy and so the service was very good. Good choices of vegetarian and gluten free food. Highly recommended.

Nice little cafe with a large offering of drinks and snacks, perfect location to watch the world go by from.

Awful food. Very boring, supermarket bought, half heated food. Had to ask for 3 dishes and one hot drink to be heated up. At almost £10 a dish I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. I had the falafel plate - most of the plate was cheap, boring salad. The staff were nice though and that is the only reason I didn't make a fuss. Really bad food.

I have been to this cafe twice before the latest visit and was impressed by the selection of food but perhaps its changed ownership as the light lunch we had was not up to the previous welcome and standard.

This little cafe has the prime location under Richmond bridge overlooking river Thames.One can spend hours together under the maple trees watching the rowers race by.Dog walkers stop to let their dogs splash in the waterfront nearby.Children cry out in glee as the ducks, swans and sea gulls rush to grab the bread crumbs offered.After a long walk walk along the river bank and grazing grounds one can satisfy their tastebuds with a variety of foods here.Vegetable lasagne was yum.This place usually serves good scones n clotted cream.Tea is served in teapots on tables ...n again there is no time limit.However their pizza and salad were not extraordinary. Nothing could do damage though to the serene and calm feeling one experiences here.

Disappointed with everything. The toilets were shockingly dirty, the sofa's were absolutely filthy and the tables and chairs were crammed into the seating areas inside. We first visited this place 18 months ago and was very impressed but this visit was utterly disappointing. The food looked great on display but all of its food was just microwaved. We ate the samosa with salad which we thought would be baked crisp but was just microwaved so soggy as anything - not worth it for the rip off price of £8!!! I doubt anything was freshly prepared, just seems everything is bought in and then reheated for high markups. Staff were rude, no greeting even though place was really quiet on a wet day, not even a thank you when paying for food. I would avoid this place at all cost and head up to the high street for better cafes or sandwich.

We sat inside on a very wet day and were basically disappointed with everything. The food looked great on display but the spinach and filo roll, plus veg quiche were just heated in the microwave and didn't taste great. The greek salad was ok. Our coffee didn't arrive till we chased it and the cups were really not clean. Staff only seemed interested in the local customers and not faces they hadn't seen before. Definitely wouldn't go back as there are so many lovely places in the area.

Förmiddagskaffe under brofästet vid Themsen. Välgjord rejäl Cappucino. Många fräscha kakor och tårtor. Litet och hemtrevligt.

Mycket trevligt och annorlunda café under Richmond bridge. Gott och prisvärt fika och lugn och ro. Väl värt ett besök.

As. 30 year vegetarian the one thing I am used to is having to carefully select eating options so as to avoid places that offer a single Veggie option, or those that rely on Vegetarian Lasagne! What I am still not used to is finding places that provide only vegetarian and when I find one I'm spoilt for choice. The Tide Tables is no exception to that rule. A huge variety o yummy veg options, including two 'meal' staples and pies/pastries galore. This is a cafe not a restaurant so don't expect haute cuisine! But you get friendly, helpful service, the cafe is busy (always a good sign) and there were plenty of non-veggie customers being amazed that us non meat eater have such a huge variety of food (sigh!)I had a tasty and filling mushroom and spinach pie with salad, which I ate on their veranda area....a lovely oasis of calm amongst the busy promenade of Richmond Riverside, watching the sun through trees and feeling mighty relaxed (perfect after a busy work day).Recommended for meat and non-meat eaters alike!

This picturesque cafe nestles under the arches of Richmond Bridge and has outside space overlooking the river. It's great to sit there and watch people along the river, the ducks and rowers as well as cyclists and dog walkers. Their coffee and cakes are really good, and the other food (salads, pies etc) is always fresh and tasty. Indoors it's cosy and a good winter venue with mainly tables and chairs but a couple of casual sofas too.

Good coffee, shame about the staff who seem to spend their time loafing about, whilst one of them struggles to cope. Too long a list of negatives to go into, the owner realy needs to sort the place out.

Great choice of vegetarian salads and a wide choice of hot foods. All freshly made and reasonable prices too. Location faces the river and staff are friendly.

At last - a vast meat free menu with vegan & gluten options - so much to choose from! Great riverside location under the arches at Richmond Bridge where you can sit & watch the world (& river) go by.

I had a terrible experience - I told one of the staff, I fancied humus, falafel and salad and the naan bread my friend had ordered with her chickpea curry. The waitress said oh you can have the Falafel Plate. As that meal was listed on the vegan menu I assumed it would be vegan, but half way through eating the meal I saw the salad had feta cheese in it. When I pointed this out, instead of apologising, several staff were very defensive and said I should have asked for the vegan option!! That doesn’t make sense to me as it was on the vegan menu, not listed as a vegan OPTION. They made me feel like I had done something wrong, they were very accusing and cold and it was a very upsetting experience. Twice I emailed the owner but didn't get a reply let alone an apology. Food allergies should be taken seriously.

Went there last year for muffin and tea. It was average. Went again in August for afternoon tea. Nothing to rave about. The location sitting outside looking over River Thames and people watching.

With the family we met for lunch at the Tide Tbles Cafe along the river Thames. This is an all vegetarian cafe with a lot of choice. The terrace with tbles and chairs is very basic with mesh table tops and rather grubby. We had vegetarian ciches which were diappointently bland, however some other had sweet choices which were much tastier. On a hot day it is nice sitting under the trees and watching the river.

Lovely location right by the river, great selection of sweet and savoury food. Everything looks delicious, only stopped for coffee this time.

I found this little cafe whilst walking to my meeting and stopped off for a tea and croissant. Wonderful location, friendly service. Nice place.

Came by here every morning after my early run; great location next to the river. Good coffee. Cakes looked lucious and daily papers plus wifi - sad to leave Richmond.
