Woodies Freehouse in Kingston upon Thames

Excellent place especially for a large gathering! Service was superb!!

Would definitely go back, definitely not over priced. Portions large. Been back again,great food,lovely staff.you must try it

Great pub with a great atmosphere

We had a celebration for family and friends, around 35 people, and everything was great. Has did a brilliant job organising the tables and having the food ready in time for everyone to eat. The staff is super friendly even with kids running around. And the food was wonderful, only compliments from the whole party. We will all be back!

When we first moved here three years ago we didn’t care for woodies but now it’s one of our go tos. The menu is so good. Absolutely love the lamb shoulder and pie. The toasted potatoes… Damn can’t get enough of those. PROPER GRAVEY!!! Wow so good.

Absolutely fabulous service from Has, and the rest of the team. Catered for mums 100th birthday party on Sunday for 50 guests. Not the first time we’ve used Woodies, but felt they really excelled themselves. They couldn’t do enough for us and the food and service were amazing. I can’t recommend enough and will definitely be visiting again. Thanks again to all the hard working and attentive staff. Everyone enjoyed themselves and were full of praise for the venue.

Warm and welcoming local pub, full of sporting memorabilia, and reasonably priced food and drink - the perfect place to spend a relaxing afternoon.

I had a Sunday beef roast the portion were quite large but on my plate where three quite large slices of beef the first two slices were nice and tender but the third slice I couldn't eat it because was very tough and looked if wasn't from the same day

First time visitors recommended by someone who lived locally. We loved it and both had salads, they were excellent and my apple crumble was delicious and not the sugar fest it usually when not homemade ...

Pork belly and mash with the best gravy is delicious

Friendly and accommodating staff. Great for evening drink outside and a relaxed dinner with friends and family.

Amazing gem of a pub! The staff are all extremely helpful and kind. The food was 10/10. I had the steak and ale pie and it was the best pie I’ve ever eaten. We will definitely be returning!

Out of the way bar great staff. Always made to feel welcome...bring the dag too🐕

Celebrated my birthday here and had drinks here last week also. Both positive experiences 'always'. Staff are always smiley, chatty and at hand to offer a professional service and knowledge on their Ciders, beer's, ales, wines, & spirit's. I can recommend the double Glenfiddich's on the rock's 🧊 😋💯

First time there in years and it was lovely. Staff friendly and service great.

The best. Love it here when I can afford it. Although it isn’t super pricey. Just more than the average pub.

Tough to get more than 1* for rude staff...

Booked this place for our work BBQ and didn't disappoint. Found the decoration very interesting wirh loads of sports memorabilia. Great selection of drinks and was very pleased to see they had Guinness 0 as was driving back home. Will deffo come back.

Fantastic food best beef and ale pie on the planet ( Michelin star should be awarded fantastic staff fantastic atmosphere 10 out of 10 all day long

Fantastic place , great staff, great food, lucky atmosphere, will be back for sure.

Great for sport. Good beers etc. Pretty good menu. Table service.

First time been to Woodies in about 30 years! Lovely pub and staff and the Sunday roast was great. Had a good Sunday vibe.

Lovely pub out of the way, staff are lovely and the venue is very interesting.

Nice music, and a professional staff . Seby and Stefan were kind and helpful with the menu. Pet friendly . Our labrador Aslan was delighted to eat the steak prepared for him. Spoiled by Seby. Thank you. The food was yummy.

Parking dog friendly - though food got too pricey for a humble PH

Went to Woodies to watch a band. Lovely pub with a really good atmosphere.

A great pub to see the sun go down, and a great outdoor pub.

Very nice and chilled atmosphere, especially on a sunny day I'm their outdoor area. Staff were exceptionally welcoming and friendly, especially to our little pup. Food was sublime, especially for the price. Clearly an old fashioned sports pavillion in it's previous life, it retained this vintage charm whilst remaining suited to modern needs.

Terrible. Racist workers. On March 17th 2024 I visited the pub. The bartender was curt and gave me disgusted looks while serving me. I (a black female) was charged more for the same drink as 2 people with light skin. I ordered the same drink as a friend but in a different flavour and was charged £7.50 while they were charged £6.80. I questioned the bartender about whether it was priced based on how rare the flavour was, and he said 'No, it's not about how rare the flavour is necessarily' and gave me no valid explanation, just saying 'It's what the company that supplies them tells us to put the prices at'. After paying suspiciously, I asked the lady who initially recommended the drink flavour to me how much she paid. She had ordered after me and she paid £6.80 for the EXACT same drink, the same flavour that I got. I'm disappointed in Woodies Freehouse, New Malden and appalled that things like this still happen in 2024.

Steak was amazing, chunky chips were top class. The Mrs had a burger that was a little dry so I would recommend getting a source with it but the flavor was superb.

Great local pub, excellent choice of different beers!

Good local pub, easy to park, nice and chilled out

Great food and staff I highly recommend this venue Very delicious every time it’s my third visit now

100% would reccomend for a great meal. Service was spot on and the food was fantastic. We had the steak cook how it was ordered. Roast dinners which were perfect and the kids loved the burger and chips and fish and chips. Deserts were also the best desserts we have had from a resturant in a long time.

Service is incredible!!! Food amazing!!! Modern and clean, relaxing on Sunday. Perfect

We arrived without a booking & as we approached the door the general manager, Sebastian, was holding the door open for us. From that moment on he impressed us so much with his service - nothing was too much, he treated us (again, who hadn’t booked!) like we were the only ones in the restaurant - but he treated all the guests like that. He chatted to us and not only made us feel welcome, but like we were regulars who he’d met many times. Can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough - while we weren’t regulars, we 100% now will be, thank you Sebastian (Paul & Claire Gill).

Lovely place and the atmosphere is always welcoming. Family friendly and staff always polite

I didn't expect much, but the food, service, and atmosphere were good. If I get the chance, I'd like to have a drink while watching soccer in the evening.

Super pub food. Shoulder of lamb to die for. Good service selection of beers, traditional pub setting.

Woodies was a good experience the service and food was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful. 💎

Friendly atmosphere, opened on Christmas and boxing days, muddy poes are welcome and a good variety of local beers such as London pride. If you are lucky, the fireplace will be running, which makes this pub more special.

Nothing was too much trouble, thanks to the new management team. Food was great, as was the service. A lovely, welcoming place.

A large glass of red wine for £10.90!!! Yes that's what we were charged. Unbelievable isn't it. Nov 2023

Good that parking area big. Not good someone hit our car and ran away.

Never frequented this pub before. Nice food, service and atmosphere.

Lovely food, excellent service. Owners very welcoming. Recommend

Peter's 70th Birthday... Peter used to work here and he cought up with a now staff member and they swapped recollections of times gone by,very nice.... Celebrations with family. Had a really nice vegetarian choice for the roast dinner,loads of it too. Everyone had a huge roast dinner,lovely drinks and good company and surroundings. Would recommend.

Excellent food at reasonable prices, very friendly and helpful staff, plenty of parking. Been twice will definitely go again.

Great place, nicely central but tucked away enough to avoid the chaos. Nice food, atmosphere, and friendly staff. Decent amount of parking. Kid and dog friendly. Well worth having a trip out too.

Friendly staff especially Katie. Was a bit disappointed with the gravy served with the lamb shoulder which I ordered. Serving staff did apologise. As a chef, I taste my sauces before I send them out to guests.

Company organised a Quiz Night here, excellent venue loved it

Timeless great place tucked away with wonderful people

One star for the manager who was helpful, but otherwise no other stars because of the attitude of the young bar staff's attitude and actions. They were extremely rude after messing up our order, made an incredibly unplesant expression, accused us of being in the wrong and initially refused to proceed as they would have to go to the manager. The interaction was horrible and felt racist towards me as if I was a customer who couldn't make an order. All in all, the staff ruined my evening and made us appear to be the fool. They had no respect for the customer. I am a regular patron and often tell friends and family, but their attitude has ruined my experience now and potentially moving forwards.

Hidden away gem. Friendly staff and atmosphere

Went on a Thursday lunchtime, so obviously not expecting a buzzing atmosphere, but tasty food and attentive service.

A surprisingly affordable gastro pub hidden away in New Malden/Berrylands. Imbetween playing fields. Seemed quite popular even at midday. Food was very good. However they delivered one of the meals several minutes later than all the others for a party of 6 so loses points for this.

First time visiting from Canada and really enjoyed our time here. Great food, beer, people and atmosphere! Definitely would come back.

Went for lunch, and it was a very pleasant experience. The beef and ale pie was delicious, and the accompanying mash and vegetables (and gravy) spot on. Beautifully presented too. Service just right - attentive but not intrusive. Impressed. Would (probably will!) go again.

Friendly bar staff, good atmosphere, great sporting memorabilia for talking points, (no Makers Mark whiskey though) absolute diamond in Kingsto

We went early one Saturday morning to watch the womens world cup so wasn't very busy at the time. The staff were all very friendly and the food was very nice. We had a pizza which had lots of topping on it so well worth the money

Played gigs there a few times, the atmosphere was lovely and kind and the staff were helpful. The prices of drinks weren’t too bad either. Lovely decoration in there, very unique.

We used Woodies for my dads wake and start to finish the service was superb

I pop In regularly at about 6 for 1/2 hour or so. Lovely. Staff friendly and efficient. Not sure what happens after that when the unsmiling, monotone, surly shift take over but best to avoid then.

My favourite local pub. Nice good. Lovely atmosphere. Excellent staff/service. Great for hosting events. Nice to take the kids and just chill or meet up with mates.

Very calm and relaxed atmosphere. Just had lunch with gread fish and chips. Like being somewhere out in the country. Best kent secret in New Malden!

A hidden jewel in New Malden with lovely staff, more than decent food, nice clientele. Great place to have a quick pint or a leisurely meal. Highly recommended!

Quite a remotely placed pub nearby to LSE Sportsground in New Malden. There are quite a few tables outside if it is a nice day too. The drinks prices are quite reasonable for the area also. Worth a visit if you’re in the area as there aren’t many other options and good for a post-match pint of watching cricket at LSE.

Good food available at all times of the day - good service

Food was excellent and the was hot when came to the table wine was excellent and we're excellent with staff doing a great job and keep happy.

Always a warm welcome and friendly relaxed atmosphere. Food is consistently good , good portions and well priced . A few more vegetarian options would be great but other than that this has become a family go to .

We popped into here as we wanted to grab some food on the way back home from sofa shopping in New Malden and we were not disappointed. Gorgeous wraps, very reasonable price, lovely sitting outside but the interior cannot be missed, especially if you're an AFC Wimbledon fan. The staff were attentive and very sweet to our 2yr old. Would definitely go again.

Regular. Starting to have live bands at weekends.

A nice lunch with friends. The menu has plenty of choices. A pleasant lunch where we weren't hurried.

Woodies food is amazing. Their food is so good I love the pizza and fish and chips

Awesome pub with super good food apart from the roast which is just average, really friendly staff and amazing service! Dog friendly and a good atmosphere! Would highly recommend.

Woodies is a great little tucked away pub that has lots of character. Nice bunch of locals and if you are an old Kingstonian you're probably likely to bump into old friends at busy times. Had a roast lamb sunday lunch today which could have been a lot better. Presented like a sort of stack with not a lot of lamb on top it was a pass. Presented on a normal plate would have shown the actual lack of meat on the plate. It wasn't the best bit of lamb either. However I have had a lot worse. The beer is good. The staff are great hosts and it's a lovely place to have a beer.

Nice privately owned pub by the sports field and Hogsmill recreation ground, a bit remote,

Nice pub with some good beers. Friendly and helpful staff. The roast we had was very poor however, overly salty with some awful dry (probably from frozen) potatos. The whole dish was saturated with thin, watery gravy. £15 per adult for that was bordering offensive.

We were invited by friends who are regulars of Woodies. Went for meal and drinks. It was everything our friends had said. Friendly, inviting, the service was superb and the food was great. Will happily go again and are even thinking about a family Christmas meal there

Sunday Roast Review.... Before i get into the roast we had, Woodies is a great place, great atmosphere and welcoming warm pub... the day food menu is lovely and good value. tried their house lager yesterday which was crisp and had good flavour. Yesterday we went in for a Sunday roast (we review local ones) at £14.95 it is at the high end of prices locally so we were expecting a real feast. Sadly it did not deliver at all.... thin slices of beef looked like pre cooked packaged fodder with zero taste, roast potatoes were fine (but not great) Yorkshire was of the frozen variety and the veg was all undercooked (I couldn't even cut my carrots) overall a fairly dull forgettable roast dinner. They did take one off the bill which was very generous, but overall its a 4.5/10 wouldn't recommend (3 of us had the same meal and all 3 were the same so we did have comparisons) no cauliflower cheese, no extra gravy, if it were a £7.99 roast I wouldn't complain but £15 was a lot to pay for what we got. I think they need to focus on the roast on a Sunday and don't offer other dishes (however my son was very happy with his fish n chips, which i've had before and is amazing) This food did not reflect the general niceness of woodies. definitely go there maybe avoid the roast beef.

Decent drinks selection. Friendly staff. Food has massively improved from a couple of years ago. This pub is full of character. I would definitely recommend

Lovely pub, good choice of food and drink. Plenty of outside seating some covered by the gazebo and some not, so all weather catered for. Staff really friendly and helpful.

Been over 30 yrs since i last had a pint in woodies and it's not changed a bit with the football memorabilia hanging from the ceiling, the staff amazing and the band Saturday night brilliant i won't be leaving so long next time

Nice garden, pleasent staff and clean facilities

Good food, good service and good beer. Well recommended.

Limited food menu selection.the steak was not as gòod as it should be

Lovely pub, excellent food, staff and atmosphere

Friendly customer service, in a comfortable atmosphere It is a space of shelter that can be visited by family, friends. Seasonal food and outdoor and indoor tables taste a variety of apples, including a variety of real ales, lagers and ciders, wines, soft drinks and coffees. Our tru likes it, too.

Not the sort of place you can aumble upon but worth a detour. Good selection of ales. Xmas menu was as expected.

Good food and beer. Clean. Reasonably priced. Plenty of seating in various areas including outdoors. Great staff throughout.

Had a band on the Saturday night when we went , ok atmosphere. Nice place and staff.

Need to clean tables for the customers

Really nice place, pretty hard to find! Food was lovely and the staff were friendly

Good place for a pint and fine pub style food.

This place is doggy. If you order one or two fish and chips, they are big. If you order more than 2 of them, you will end up with two big ones and rest are all small. Why they do this I don't know. I will never go there again. Staffs are ok, working for living.

Lovely Sunday roast and excellent service

Could do with more bitters like they use to have.

Great atmosphere, great food and staff very friendly.

Had a meal last night with my daughter and her family. Would highly recommend. Service and food were excellent

Disappointed with roast Carrots and cabbage were hard Roast potatoes disappointing Way too much on plate Lovely Yorkshire pudding and lamb
