how to find it:

The nearest train station tube is Richmond, but as Ham is a good 25 minute walk away it's hardly close. Your best bet is probably to head to the river from Richmond tube then head left along the riverside or Petersham Road. You'll see the pub when Petersham Road turns right into Petersham itself. If you don't fancy the stroll the No. 65 bus from Richmond stops outside the pub.

The sort of decent and upstanding watering hole you'd expect in the wealthy environs of Petersham (turn left at the end of the road for the Polo Club), this is a rather family-oriented concern with a largish beer garden and a fair amount of room inside. No sign on our last visit of their old 'kids charter' (basically, if your kid pisses about and injures himself it's his or her fault not the pub's) but we'd like to think it's still in operation. We've enjoyed a sizeable buffet here in the past, and also been privy to some live jazz. So much so that, a trip here on a summer's day rather resembles an invitation to a Garden Party. If such a notion appeals, pop by when it's warm.

I am not sure this is a family pub anymore. They provided a high chair and smiling staff and thats about it! £7 for one fish cake with lettuce and tartare sauce and the kithen couldn't even do some extra vegetables. We had a walk and came back for desert in the garden. The manager sent one of his staff to tell us that our children had to stay sitting down at the table and not wander around - rather rude and strange we thought after we had spent £150 for 4 adults and 2 children.
