Lunchtime and fairly quiet at this time of the day. I had lunch here and was surprised to find that buttered winter vegetables translates in to English as peas. Very good service from friendly and attentive bar staff.

Only pub open before 11am in Richmond on the way to Twickenham so we though we would pop in. We weren't disappointed with the ale selection on offer, we will be back!
