Yep, a classy pub in Kingston. Such a nice meal out and a really nice, cosy atmosphere. Also lovely to hear a local play the piano in the corner (very well at that), really added to the evening!

Popped in for the Wych Elm Friday Curry with friends, we all had the Sri Lankan Prawn curry which was absolutely delicious with a lovely hint of spice that was just right. It came with basmati rice and an array of extremely tasty samosas, naan breads, onion bhajis as well as mango chutney and raita. The service was excellent, both extremely friendly and capable from start to finish. A great local pub brimming with atmosphere and charm. Definitely worth a detour if you are in the Kingston area.

A wonderful Sunday lunch spot, and super dog friendly! We were sat outside and our pooches were given their own water bowl and lots of cuddles by the staff throughout. Thanks!

We went to show a Texan, here for a week,. British cuisine. The reviews of this place are great. We have previously visited. It is not in an oasis of beauty, but is trying very hard. We had been here before for a drink. Overall we paid £50 a head plus including wine/cocktails which were very good. The Scallops with crushed peas; the French onion soup really good, although crusty bread took time to come and should have been part of the dishes. Please take a lesson from the French. My son's steak was brilliantly cooked and presented as was the fish and chips, but my burger was the worst I have had in many, many years. One could have played ice hocky with it. Service is not brilliant.

This is our favourite pub ---- its only shortcoming is that its location is not within walking distance of our home! We eat here at least once a month and never feel let down. The food is always good and the daily specials offer variety. Portions are generous, service is slick and the prices (we think) are very reasonable. Our two friends last night, who have been sailing the world for the last eight years and have eaten far and wide, thought that The Wych Elm was every bit as good as we promised them and were particularly complementary about the Duck Special. 10/10

Really enjoyed my lunch here. Had a delicious burger. There was plenty of choice on the menu, with a good range of dishes. Incredibly reasonable weekday lunchtime special price too. Glad I was hungry and had held back from ordering a side order to go with burger as it was a very generous size. I have to have gluten-free food and often GF burger buns are pretty underwhelming. Not today. It tasted really nice. The lush, well-kept garden at the back was a treat to sit in while eating too. Service was friendly and professional. Whole place was clean and cosy.

I’ve been here for Sunday lunch before but this review is just about the pub / beer garden and the brilliant service. Came here on a warm Saturday evening with a couple of friends and two dogs. We went straight to the large beer garden at the rear. The staff couldn’t have been more welcoming, immediately bringing out a water bowl for the dogs and water for the table. Went to the bar for the first round and the barman offered to bring the drinks out for us. Later drinks were served to us when the barman offered staff came and asked if we wanted more and then brought the card machine to us. A really nice, welcoming, friendly pub to spend some time at.

I have only provided for stars for atmosphere, as on this visit the pub seemed a little quieter than usual, however Mike and the team were ready to welcome us as I had reserved a table in my brother's name so he could treat Mum to a nice meal out for her birthday. Staff were understanding and accommodating to our needs, not only due to my eating/drinking regime, but also being in the company of my new niece. Yes, there are baby changing facilities available here. Dog friendly. Great selection of food, starters, mains, small plates, desserts, beers/lagers and wines as well as low/non alcoholic and gluten free beverages. Outdoor seating available at the front of the house as well as in the well kept pub garden and patio to the side and rear. This is definitely a hidden gem for Kingston and South West London and definitely worth a visit, no matter the weather. If Mike and the Team can accommodate for your needs, they will.

The specials included a butterfly of fish with capers, broccoli and kale with small rösti potatoes. The fish was perfectly cooked as were all the veg. My friend had fish and chips. Both were delicious. We will be back !

Went to the Wych Elm for a quiet Saturday lunch after a dog walk. The service was fantastic and the pub was peaceful and warm. The food was typical pub grub; nothing to get upset about, but also nothing to blow your socks off. Attentiveness and politeness of the bar staff should be noted - they provided excellent service throughout our stay and made sure that all three of us (the dog included!) were comfy and well-looked after. As a Fuller's pub, they've got a good range of dependable beer - recommend if you're looking for a pint and an easy meal.

I’d heard great things about Sunday lunch at the Wych’s Elm and having just eaten there I can see why. I had the Roast Pork, very generous portion of meat as well as veggies and it was all delicious. The staff had no problem with my partner having a kids portion and even that was generous in size. Apple Crumble and custard was the perfect finish.

We had dinner here on a Friday evening as a table of four. Having not eaten at the pub for a while, we were bitterly disappointed. The food was mediocre at best and vastly overpriced. Burgers at £18.50 did not even include any chips!!! Whoever heard of that in a pub?! I had the sole which was overcooked, dry and tasteless and sautéed potatoes swimming in a pool of oil - yuck. We had a few nibbles as starters and two desserts only and total bill was over £160.00. This is such a shame for a local pub as we will not be returning in a hurry.

From an açai bowl to a bacon buttie (please make sure you take advantage of everything this fantastic ‘Secret’ has to offer) your every need is met. We indulged in the passion fruit and white chocolate cake combined with the carrot cake served in a beautiful cake box and both completely moorish. The flat white was also delicious and the price was very reasonable.
