| Went in on a Sunday afternoon. Pleasant atmosphere (I was put off going into the Union next door because of the braying I could hear before going in). I had a nice pint of Special. The food looked good and seemed to be appreciated by those who were eating. I would definitely go in again although I wouldn't go miles out of my way. NigelW - 28 Feb 2011 18:50 |
| One of the better Young pubs I have been in. Could do with more staff on a Saturday afternoon. loveleedshatebates - 14 Feb 2011 12:51 |
| Youngs pub in a quiet location away from the town centre. Available beers were Ordinary, Special, Winter Warmer and Richard 1st Christmas Ale. There are 2 separate bars with a garden at rear. A full range of Youngs bottled beers were also stocked. This pub seemed more popular with locals than the Greenwich Union next door. It also had much more of a homely feel and was far cheaper. blue_scrumpy - 30 Dec 2010 20:14 |
"Thankfully, this traditional pub has avoided the worst type of refurbishment from the Youngs makeover team" ====================================================================== Can't believe this comment from rpadam, as I was thinking the total opposite. Hadn't been to this pub for around 8 years until yesterday. It's totally ruined. From it's old threadbare carpets and lived in feel, to a poncy high table and stools modern rubbish. Used to be a great pub but I hated what they've done with it. Went to The Plume of Feathers instead, which thankfully remains a proper pub. Pat_Bateman - 6 Dec 2010 09:17 |
| Took a Canadian friend in here on Thursday night. I have been going to the Richard on and off for about 13 years, and I think it's been getting (gently) better all this time. The only thing I don't really like is the carpets - who puts carpets in a pub? Anyway, we had 2 very nice pints of Special in a very uncrowded pub. It was pretty expensive, sadly, which might explain the uncrowded feeling. But the place was clean, no banging music (which is always a bonus), and the toilets are a lot better than they have been in the past. They'd run out of handsoap a good while ago, though (the container had been broken) which isn't a strong sign that anyone's taking much care. The food menu looked very Youngs, and very nice - nobody was eating though, and it was dinner time. I wondered why. Overall, a lovely atmosphere, a lovely looking pub, pleasant helpful young staff (although that can change at the drop of a hat of course). And the beer's expensive (but it's Greenwich), and the toilets aren't monitored properly. Toilets are really important to older punters, and because this place is quieter and food oriented these days, it'd be worth checking them every hour or so. Still manages a 7 though, for being so pretty :) FussyPunter - 23 Oct 2010 16:23 |
