The White Cross

This was the second pub that I visited in Richmond, and one of the reasons is that it happens to be on the banks on the Thames. Okay, not strictly on the banks because there is a path between the pub and the river, however there is a decent garden out the back which offers a pretty decent view of the river and the parks thereabout.

I can't say too much about this place as I never even entered the establishment! It was such a nice sunny winter day we stood out the front enjoying the weather and fantastic views of the Thames and Richmond bridge.

Definitely a nice way to spend the afternoon. more

My favourite riverside pub is gently located next to the gorgeous stone Richmond bridge and has an awe factor, especially for visitors such as myself. Particularly great on a Sunday when folks are out in full on the patio and others strolling along the Thames. I am a fan of their malty Young's Special ale as well as their stronger Bitter.

The riverside view is quite nice, close, pleasant patio dining area, views from all the floors.

The food is delicious. Reasonably priced. (£6.50 for a chicken sandwich, £5.50 for chips and smashed avocado).

Good selection of wines and beer. See photos of menu.

Be sure to order at the bar unless your seated in the dining room upstairs.

Service is prompt and friendly. more
