Impeccable is the only way to describe this place! Excellent selection of beers, including Sours, great food, not the biggest selection but there is something for everyone including a nice vegan burger! Staff are really friendly and helpful when choosing a beer. Added bonus of a upstairs Speak Easy style bar...go check them out!
Wheelchair friendy! the staff could not have been more accommodating. We ate before it got busy and the service was fast with the food being spot on, fish n chips was epic, beer selection fantastic and we could not have asked for more. Thank you.
We found this lovely rustic but unusual bar in Richmond yesterday. It even has a speak easy upstairs. Great wine list đź‘Ś
We hosted a small private party at Dropkick Jonny’s - the whiskey bar above the Tap Tavern in September and they were absolutely fantastic. From the very beginning, Jack and Kirsty were super helpful and organised when communicating the plan and our options, offering buffet menu choices, and even curating a personalised cocktail menu for us based on our favourite drinks. We always felt we were in great hands. The event itself was seamless. My partner was allowed to pop in earlier in the day to decorate, and when our guests arrived we were greeted with a welcome cocktail from our custom menu, with gorgeous Print outs of the menu around the room. The atmosphere was lovely, cosy with plenty to look at, and we were able to play our own playlist. Throughout the evening we had Olly serving us and he went above and beyond all night. Always with a smile, friendly with our guests and making sure everyone got try all the different cocktails! He impressed my partner and his best friend with his whisky knowledge at the end of the night too! The food was heavenly - again accommodations had been made just for us to make sure there was plenty to meet everyone’s dietary requirements, and there was no trouble asking for a bit extra later when everyone wanted a bit more! Overall I can’t recommend it enough for a small event. Incredible staff, delicious drinks and top notch food. What more could you want.
It's a strange thing, I lived down the road from Tap Tavern when it opened up, and I barely went in. I've moved away, but now when visiting I end up gravitating back to this place when in need of a quiet retreat away from the hoards of Ted Lasso tourists. Has the place changed? I doubt it. I was a fussy guy back when I lived in here, and was definitely guilty of the craft beer nerd cliché of assuming there's "nothing good on". That being said, the remaining pubs in the area are mostly Fullers or Young's, so beer selection is limited, even more so now that Real Ale closed up shop in Twickenham. But coming here you've got 16 taps, a vast cocktail menu and even a couple of casks too. You'll be hard pressed to find something you won't enjoy. Beer-wise it's not going mad for imports, hazy hype or lambics, you're not going to satisfy the most ardent beer nerds here, but to keep it relatively affordable you'll see Mondo, Siren, Deya among others. Those that are in that sweet spot of high-volume production. I dabbled in a 2% Deya Pale on this occasion, drank to the backdrop of a gormless chap on speakerphone to someone who didn't want to be video called. Food always looks good here. I've had a few of the burgers, fries, sides, and they're all decent. The roasts fly out too, and booking is essential on weekends - we arrived here a bit before the influx of 1pm bookings hence the emptiness but nice to enjoy it while it lasted. Varied menu, veggie friendly too, and dependable quality as well based on the times I've eaten here. Staff are always super-friendly, table service if you like, bar if you don't. I like the addition of the bar seats at one side, plus the window seating for a spot of people watching. It can get quite crowded, especially when the rugger is on. You don't have to squeeze in here though, the back room is spacious and comfortable, and there's a hidden speakeasy that's hidden from this post too (it wasn't open yet). I used to hate going to Richmond (sometimes I still do), but I don't mind it so much now that I've rediscovered this place.
