About The Cabbage Patch, Twickenham
On London Road in Twickenham, The Cabbage Patch is a rugby-themed pub opposite Twickenham train station. On match days the beer garden and marquees serve as overflow space, which gives rugby fans more room for drinks before and after the game. The bar pours cask ales alongside a selection of keg beers, and the menu includes a Sunday roast with roast beef. Dogs are welcome. Tables can be booked on match days, and the pub is also available for functions and private gatherings.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return to The Cabbage Patch mainly as a rugby match day pub, a pre-match and post-match gathering point for England supporters and fans at Twickenham, with several describing a lively atmosphere after games such as the Red Roses victory and England v Ireland. Close behind is the food, with a Sunday roast of tender roast beef, fresh vegetables and tasty gravy singled out, and others calling the cuisine excellent. Diners also mention a good selection of cask ales and keg beers, and friendly staff who served quickly even when packed, with one rugby team welcomed to sing Welsh songs on tour. The main trade-off is crowding: reviewers say match days fill the pub quickly, so the beer garden and marquees are regularly used as overflow, and one suggests booking a table. One reviewer also notes it can be pricier than elsewhere. Several describe stopping in for drinks both before and after the match.

“Big shout out to Charlie Zoe leanne & Fraser for being the best bar staff I've ever met! Beyond hospitable to me and my rugby team letting us sing our Welsh songs on our rugby tour! On top of that they brought the vibes and banter for a top tier night out. Will 100% come back if these guys are working!!”

“Me and my friends visited the Cabbage Patch before and after the Army v Navy match at Twickenham stadium. I was served promptly on both occasions. The Cabbage Patch is opposite Twickenham Train station. It is very popular on match days so it can get very packed very easily which is why the beer garden and marquees are regularly used as overflows. I would recommend this pub for a drink after work or on match days.”

“What a fantastic Sunday Roast I had today at The Cabbage Patch!!! Thoruly enjoyed my dinner. Beautifully cooked and presented! Roast beef was lovely and tender. Fresh vegetables and tasty gravy.
