Atmosphere & Location

Pros:

  • "Great layout for seating and a cosy atmosphere."
  • "A lovely environment, absolutely first-rate food, and an incredible value set lunch."
  • "Lovely pub, very near the train station, I've been in here previously whilst waiting for a train.....found time to do the same again recently, relaxing nicely decorated place to enjoy a drink."
  • "Great atmosphere and located virtually right next to the train station."
  • "The atmosphere at The Railway Pub Teddington is lively and fun."
  • "The atmosphere is welcoming, the menù is inviting, the food is delicious."
  • "The atmosphere in this establishment is very special indeed."

Cons:

  • "Small reduction in atmosphere as we were seated in the small outdoor area, which was expected, but did not realise it was a smoking area, and then the kitchen extractor fan kicked in and spoiled any ambiance."
  • "Some annoyingly loud bad music coming from inside the bar."
  • "We sat outside in the sun as we had a dog with us, but conversation was spoilt from loud music coming from the kitchen."
  • "Not a massive fan of the most recent refurb, as it's lost some pub-like character with a slightly more 1990s sterile chic feel."
  • "Not child friendly, although markets itself as a child friendly community pub."
  • "Massively overpriced!"
  • "Won’t return again."

Value

Pros:

  • "A recurring choice as right next to the station, £5 lunch and is feels open and bright."
  • "Been to plenty of restaurants lately where you're getting charged minimum a tenner for a small underwhelming plate and you're needing at least 8 before leaving unsatisfied. In comparison this was very good value and left hugely satisfied."
  • "Great value for plat du jour lunch at £7 for one course and £10 for two."
  • "£38 for steak and bottle of wine for two, great value!"
  • "The price is very fair for the quality and quantity."
  • "The Railway has been our Sunday roast staple for many years now and it is consistently our favourite lazy afternoon spot for lunch."
  • "This is a great pub tucked away by the Station. Often eat here and always good to great."

Cons:

  • "Massively overpriced! Average service and below average food."
  • "Also menu price was cheaper than what we were charged. So he tried to charge me more than the menu price."
  • "We visited on a Sunday and whilst the waiter was very friendly, the service was a little slow. The sharing platter was a brilliant size but we did think was quite expensive for what it was worth."
  • "Really liked the sharing vegetarian roast here. We were a bit disappointed at the price of a pint of neck oil though, it felt a little too overpriced for the area."
  • "I would say it is overpriced. £160 for a party of 4, only a couple of cokes or Tonic, so it's not the drink inflating the price."
  • "Despite complaining to the staff, no discount or allowance was offered, so all in all £30 for two pieces of fish was a very expensive meal."
  • "There was no veg on the plate I had one pea just one pea that what £25 pound gets you."
