  “What an absolute gem of a place! We made reservations for the night and arrived an hour prior. It was packed but we were still able to get in two cocktails beforehand. The drinks were phenomenal and the atmosphere was a blast. It’s the type of place you find a corner in the crowd and laugh and gossip and people watch. Upstairs is an entirely different experience. It’s quiet and beautiful and the service is attentive and the food was excellent. The dining room overlooks the Thames and the decor felt romantic and whimsical. I could live in the curry sauce that’s an option with the fish and chips. Very happy we left London central to experience Richmond and found this spot.”

  “One of the best located pubs in London. Even if the tables are all full, there's oodles of space to sit out the front on the river wall or draped across a bench. Good wide beer selection. Helpful staff and also there were lots of them on, so even though it was busy, you got served really swiftly. Hard to fault this place really.”

  “Very lively pub on the Thames riverbank. Greatt atmosphere. Fabulous location, but check the tide first as the garden gets flooded at high tide. Higher chairs and stools to keep you dry.”

  “Had my 60th party in the room upstairs. It’s a really lovely space, with French doors opening on to a riverside balcony. We had the set menu buffet and they catered for vegans and GF guests. Everything went smoothly and the whole process of booking was handled easily and professionally. I’ve had glowing feedback from guests. Thanks to all at the White Cross! 🤩”

  “We met some people in another pub in Richmond who mentioned this one, and we decided to check it out. So glad we did! We got there right before high tide to experience the famous water rising into the outdoor seating area. Great food and drinks, beautiful day, we stayed for about 2 hours just because we were enjoying the whole experience! Highly recommend checking it out, and Richmond was just a beautiful area to spend time in walking around!”

  “Lovely Richmond riverside pub with a great atmosphere. 🌊🍗 We tried a bit of everything. 🍔 Hot Honey burger with fries. Solid burger and the honey gives it a nice twist. 🍗 The Bucket with crispy fried chicken, coleslaw, chips and gravy. The chicken was seriously tender and full of flavour 🔥 12 wings, Korean glazed, buffalo and hot honey. Korean glazed was the standout, the sauce hit the spot All wings come with blue cheese mayo and chives. We added extra gravy, some curry sauce and a few pints on the side 🍺 Great food and a great atmosphere in the beer garden. The pub is known for flooding when the tide comes in which adds to the experience. Would definitely go back next time I’m in Richmond.”

  “Amazing atmosphere for sunsets along the Thames. Easy to order drinks and food via the Young's on Tap app. There was even a deal for a free Beavertown ale. The fish & chips was divine. The child portion is only £8.”

  “What a fab place to eat. We took a boat ride from Hampton Court to Richmond. It was a special trip with friends & family so we wanted somewhere to eat before heading back to our accommodation. We booked a table in advance (really advise you do this!) We had a great table upstairs with a river view (thank you guys!) We enjoyed a delicious dinner, from fish ‘n’ chips, burger to chicken salad. Staff were delightful, friendly & welcoming. We would highly recommend ♥️”

  “The White Cross is always popular so we were lucky to find a table inside during the early evening. There's often a queue at the bar but staff have always been very efficient and polite. I recently ate here for the first time and I appreciated that the focus on a small menu. There were 2 vegan options on the printed menu but we were told that they nolonger offer 1 of them so the only vegan option is a cheeseburger. Thankfully, the burger was delicious, and I was advised that the fish & chips were also very tasty.”

  “Delicious food - unfortunately did not have the game pie so I went for the beef and Guinness pie which was outstanding! The rissoto was fantastic too. Fab service throughout. First time that I've paid £7 for a pint (Camden Pale Ale) - pricey - though I guess it's located in an expensive area so you just have to stick it up.”
