Arrived on a wet, February day to be greeted by a pleasant lady who pointed to menus and asked me to pick them up and take them to our chosen table, which I did. We then waited and waited for some further acknowledgment which didn’t come. I therefore took our orders, went to the bar and ordered our food. My hubby opted for fish finger sandwich which he said was poor, my son had ragu lasagne which had large, chewy pieces of meat in it (he held one piece up to show us and it wasn’t good! and I had a scotch egg with fries mine was ok but the fries were just warm. £46 for three of us which wouldn’t have been bad if the food was good but, alas, that’s not the case.
Nice hotel. Dog friendly. Meals were pretty tasty. However, portions were very meagre. Small plates are very small but at around £8 are not great value. Main meals are pretty small too and around £18. You then have to buy veg chips as sides. These are around £4. Not really good value. The atmosphere was lacking. On a weekend you’d have thought it would be busy. Perhaps pricing and portions have put off the locals. The staff were ok but not very attentive.
We ate here with another couple and, as it was a lovely day, sat outside on the decking. The decking is actually at the front of the hotel so you are facing out onto the attractive Richmond town centre. The food arrived promptly, especially as it was quite busy, and it was delicious. Even my vegan friend enjoyed his meal. The price wasn’t too bad, either. There’s plenty of room inside for when the weather is poor.
We have been before and tonight's experience matches up. A lovely meal well cooked and presented. Good quality and quantity. This is a lovely setting on the Market Place in Richmond, there is plenty of parking in the Market Place and the entrance is flat. There are disabled toilets handy on the ground floor. The ambience is lovely and the staff are excellent.

We had a good lunch ...ceasor salad beef pie...but whilst adequate feel that you are paying for the location/ venue in lovely market square. Staff were smart and very presentable but you felt that you were not important to them. It's nice to feel wanted when paying these prices and little attention (self service almost) or conversation.
Avoid if you want quantity food had better in a supermarket cafe absolutely awful especially been Christmas Day Staff did not seem to care if you were unhappy . We’ve been going there Few years now but this takes the biscuit .my advise try other pubs and restaurants in the area value for money nil
£22 for a dbbl disaronno and coke and a dbbl Spiced Rum and ginger. No wonder they 've got such a lovely light up car park barrier. Total robbery. Don 't bother. Over priced rubbish. Empty restaurant full of ' reserved ' tables so had to have our drinks with the rats in the alley behind.
Dependent on the time you arrive, service here can be slow, especially at around 11.00 am. Two coffees took 15 minutes to arrive came without the three Maltesers normally given per customer. Had to remind the waitress! Very nice interior decor.

Hearty British pub food some of it with unusual twists (e.g. my lamb tikka pie who would’ve dreamt of this? This is a perfect destination for when the sun is out, after a nice day out in Richmond!
Nice ambience. Friendly staff. Dog friendly which was great. I had mushroom on muffin which was well presented and delicious.
