About This Pub
Ah, The Victoria Inn – it's one of those classic pubs that really captures the heart of a local spot in Richmond. From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, the staff are an absolute joy; they're chatty, efficient, and go the extra mile with drink suggestions that never disappoint. The place has this charming, well-kept interior that's just inviting, paired with a lovely courtyard garden that's perfect for soaking up the sun with a pint in hand. Plus, if you're planning a get-together or a party, they've got a reputation for being incredibly flexible and making everything run smoothly, which is a real win. On the downside, it does have moments where the noise levels creep up unexpectedly, even on quieter days, so it might not be the best pick if you're after a peaceful catch-up. All in all, it's a solid choice for a good time out, with plenty of positives that outweigh the minor niggles, and I'd say it's worth a visit if you're in the mood for a friendly, unpretentious pub experience.

Great location . beer fine . just rather loud whilst not very busy
A lovely characterful little pub with a nice courtyard garden out the back. Lovely, friendly staff. Excellent crisp selection. I held a party here last summer and the pub was very accommodating, and everyone loved it.
Great local pub, small, but very well formed - clean and well decorated. There's a good and balanced selection of beers, wines and spirits and the publican is friendly and very efficient.
By far the most most accommodating pub for private events!!
We recently had our Christmas party hosted at The Victoria Inn by the most incredible staff, Emma and Ian.
They welcomed our vision with open arms, allowing us to take over the full pub inside and out! Applying graphic to the outside of the pub, renaming the pub for the night, dress and theme the inside, provide our own entertainment (musical bingo singer and a DJ!) and even wore branded t shirts all evening, all with a smile!
The planning process with Emma was seamless, she has the best ideas and wants to make your private event so special. This shows, our guests couldn't stop raving about the homely and friendly atmosphere. I'll undoubtedly be choosing The Victoria Inn for future private events - the best venue for an unforgettable night - thank you!!
We went to this pub twice during our stay in London and we had a great time. The bartender is the loveliest lady who is a great conversationalist. She comes up with wonderful recommendations as well. I put her in charge of my drinks every time and all were wonderful! A random creep was talking to my mom and I, and she kicked him out (kindly and professionally of course). I want to come back to London soon just to visit. Thank you for everything ❤️
