The Plough, East Sheen

Popped by for a New Year’s Day lunch after a walk round Richmond park. V busy but lots of tables outside with heaters or covers so we weren’t fussed. Staff were pretty dismissive but let them off as NYD and probably hungover! Food was delish and the servers were v friendly (just not manager!). Burgers, fish and chips and chicken schnitzel all devoured. Will be back! £20pp including food, soft drink and service, not bad these days!

Great country style pub in the middle of suburbia. Service was 5* but food was positively a basic 3*. We had the Sunday roast - beef and vegetarian options. My partner said her vegetarian option was lovely but my beef was extremely fatty and roast potatoes were reheated. I guess some people love it but it’s definitely not for those who appreciate good quality fresh food. I can’t fault the service as the staff were 100% great!

Just off the beaten track this was a great little find recently. After reading some reviews was a little unsure but should always go with the majority of views. We had a wonderful meal with great service. Hats off to the chef's for executing what seemed like a busy sunday lunch, we enjoyed our Chicken to share, perfect portions - so much so we couldn't quite finish. Surrounded by fresh veg and plenty of potatoes & clearly handmade Yorkies. Our server, I forgot to get a name was attentive, suggested us a great wine to compliment our meal. We will definately be back again in the very near future. Thank-you all.

EDITED - this was a review I wrote after a visit back in October 2022 but not uploaded - still it was disappointing. Despite having been in contact with them some time in advance regarding a couple of allergy issues, and being reassured there would be no problem, on the actual night they could not guarantee garlic free steaks. The menu was limited and very few specials were available. Portions were extremely small and very expensive - someone though the chicken was a starter! When ordering we checked what it came with and told it came with vegetables - 2.5 tiny new potatoes a half a leaf of Cavolo nero is what we got - really poor value for money. One of our group who did have the steak left a lot of it - meat was tough. Issues raised (in a quiet manner) were not handled particularly well by the manager and service was not great. We were a table of 10 and this was not a cheap meal and rest assured despite this being our nearest pub - which we used to really love and use regularly, we will not be returning. Not one member of staff said good-bye despite is being about 10.00 and the pub was pretty empty. Such a shame.
