A remarkably well-kept pub in the quieter residential parts of Richmond Hill (aside from the jets overhead of course).Very smartly decorated and furnished with tables and chairs neatly arranged in rows; even the menus on a shelf were arranged by size. The cask ales on - Youngs Original, London Pride and Proper Job - were not especially exciting but seemed to be in excellent condition, despite the pub having only just opened. Would be happy to drink here.

There were three ales on in here- Young's Bitter, London Pride, and Twickenham Naked Ladies (£4.55 a pint). We made this our lunch stop, mainly because they advertised lunchtime specials at £5 a pop. They include pub grup favourites such as burger & chips, ham, egg & chips, plougman's - between us we had these three meals and all were good quality and a decent size. We reckoned that this venue was a good bet for a lunchtime stop.
This struck me as a very comfortable and sort of homely pub. I know they do B & B accommodation here, but I didn't get the hotel bar feel abot the place. It still felt like a very much off the beaten track locals' pub. It's carpeted throughout with two separate rooms, joined by an archway behind the bar counter. The right hand room was being patronised by ten or so members of what looked like a ladies' luncheon club. We sat in the slightly larger room on the left, where there's a magnificent pillared bar back that looked Victorian.
This is another delightful pub in this part of the world, and one to which I would be very happy to pay a return visit.

I like the 'Dukes Head', it has fond memories. A good old-style pub, traditional bar, with rather small beer terrace (in the sun) at the back. I watched the cup final on the t.v. here with a local friend. Convivial enough, and often unbusy, so service is usually quite prompt. They do a good sauvignon blanc at the DH if the summer weather makes you thirsty! If you can find this pub, off the beaten track! Up behind the bus terminus off Red Lion Street, and up The Vineyard a bit....and you're there! Not really walking distance from Richmond train station, and if you don't know the back streets well, you might not find it..! Worth the trek tho' if you do. 6/10 TJ
