About This Pub
Ah, The Star in Hampton Hill – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper hideaway, you know? With a solid 4.3 rating from folks who've popped in, it's clear most people are chuffed with the place. The landlord and landlady really make it special, keeping things friendly and well-managed, which adds to that homely atmosphere. If you're a fan of a good Guinness or fancy watching the match with a crowd, it's spot on – and don't miss the garden if you've been out for a stroll in Bushy Park; it's perfect for unwinding with a drink in hand. That said, it's not all roses; I've seen a complaint about the prices being a bit over the top, like paying £16 for a simple round, which could put a dampener on things if you're watching the pennies. Overall, it's got that authentic pub charm going for it, with plenty of positive vibes from regulars, so I'd say give it a go if you're in the area – just pop in with realistic expectations and you'll likely have a cracking time.
Pros and Cons

They've got well-kept Guinness and other drinks that hit the spot, especially if you're after a classic pint.
-
The atmosphere is spot on, particularly for sports fans – it's buzzing and welcoming, with that real community vibe.
-
It's packed with character, like a proper locals' boozer that could probably share a few tales from the past.
-
The garden is a lovely spot for a relaxing drink, especially after a wander in nearby Bushy Park – highly recommended for a chilled-out afternoon.
Cons
-
Prices can feel a bit steep at times, with one round coming in at £16 for just a pint and two halves, which might leave you feeling short-changed.
-
It's not for everyone; one visitor thought it was the worst in the area, so if you're after something more budget-friendly or polished, it might not quite hit the mark.

A proper pub, run properly by a friendly landlord and landlady.
Proper pub with well kept Guinness and great service. Usually a good atmosphere in there too especially if you like sport.
Good busy locals boozer which has loads of character.
Probably could tell a few stories!
Was not a public house that I would ever go in again,3 adults and we had 1 pint and 2 halves of lager and was charged £16.00, daylight robbery,not happy people we weren't,I think the worst pub in Hampton Hill 😭
Go for a lovely walk in Bushy Park and then call in for a nice relaxing drink in the garden of the Star which is right next to the park. Highly recommended! Sláinte!
