A good looking curved Victorian pub tucked away from the main roads nearby,the interior has a very high ceiling and a series of high tables below the plate glass curved frontage.There is a bench seating area to the right,a smattering of tables towards the beer garden and a large conservatory.All tables are numbered so expect diners to be in attendance although most folk were just drinking.
There is also a large beer garden with pic nic benches,some wooden shelters and a large awning,again all tables numbered.
At the bar standard kegs and just Sharp's Coaster and Wadworth Horizon (NBSS 2 too warm and indistinct) on handpump.The pub appears more functional than a destination and I can see no reason to return.

An impressive circular building, painted in dark colours as is the wont. Inside has been a bit trendified but is still not bad, despite a horrible scaffold pole bar back. The circular bit round the bar has mostly high tables and stools, while at the rear is a large tabled room with a big garden area beyond. Fifteen high copper fonts carry a goodly range of craft from the likes of Park, Kernel and Siren, with minimal mainstream. A clutch of handpumps offered Sambrooks Junction and Pumphouse, not in the best condition. OK for craft drinkers.

A revamped pub on a corner site, décor is wooden tables and chairs, strings of lights, a big TV screen for football but at one end so not obtrusive when it isn't in use. Beers are Twickenham Grandstand, Spring Ale (tried and very pleasant, £4 a pint), and two other TfA on pump as well as a range of draft and in cans as is the current trend. Free wifi but sign-in is required. Site is accessible. Very much improved in its current incarnation the Norbiton (no longer "and Dragon") is in keeping with the trend in Kingston pubs that started with the Black Horse and the Albion.
