Harden's survey result
Summary
“Love this pub”, hailed by fans (often parents) for providing “one of the best Sunday lunches” in this part of southwest London, just outside Richmond Park in East Sheen. Over the years, TV chef Paul Merrett has transformed the rambling Victorian tavern into a boutique hotel with a large garden and spacious conservatory for dining.
Summary
Close to Richmond Park’s Sheen Gate, this sprawling and “very friendly local pub” serves “outstanding food” from TV chef and owner Paul Merrett. A refurbished Victorian tavern, it has six boutique bedrooms, a large garden and a conservatory where family Sunday lunches are a big feature.
Summary
This “charming gastropub”, a short walk from Richmond Park’s Sheen Gate, “keeps its standards”, as set in the dozen years it has been run by chef Paul Merrett. A substantial Victorian building, it has six hotel rooms and a large, family-friendly conservatory along with garden tables.
Summary
A ten-minute stroll from the Sheen Gate entrance to Richmond Park, this “pleasant gastropub” with a massive dining conservatory is ideal for a family meal, and “its USP is the small but useful outdoor play area for younger sprogs”. The food is generally of “good quality”, but there’s some dispute as to whether it’s “losing its spark” or “recovering having gone downhill”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

"This deserves 4 stars for food. I had gurnard in a mussel ginger and chilli broth which was excellent and top value for £20. We also shared a chicken liver and wild mushrooms on sourdough to start which was very good too and only £8"
