The Wych Elm, Kingston Upon Thames
Excellent pub. Great beer, good landlord and good atmosphere. Shame that there aren't more places like this about.

I agree with the majority of comments here This is one of the best pubs around. Its actually a proper pub, serving actual beer. Not some souless dump serving rank lager. If thats what your after try Kingston. There are plenty down there that will oblige.

There really is no good reason to visit this place.
As said it is pointless. No redeeming features whatsoever.

Very pleasant pub. Especially nice in the summer.
Tapas is good and service friendly. The only bad thing I can think of, is mind the step on the way out. Can catch you out esp after a session.

The hosts here are friendly and welcoming. And the people who drink in here are a friendly enough bunch.
You can get trouble in any pub anywhere. On the numerous occasions I've been in here there hasn't been any trouble at all. And I've had a very good evening. Go on give it a go, you might enjoy it!

Not a bad pub but not a particularly good one either. The acoustics are lousy and it can get very noisy. Beer isn't bad though and the service is certainly better than when it used to be The Italian place.
Very average.

My friends and I were recently holidaying in the North East and were fortunate to visit this pub. There is a wonderful selection of ales. My friend Cheek and I unfortunately didn't have enough time to sample them all. The locals who frequent this pub are a friendly bunch who enjoy fine ale. They were very hospitable, inviting us to join in with the buffet on offer. If you are ever in Alnwick make sure you visit this fine pub.

Rather harshly described. The pub definitely has unique characteristics that should be experienced to
be appreciated. Give it a go for a change!

Yes, ok its not a pub but sitting at the bar having
a few beers in pleasant surroundings makes a nice change from some of the less desirable establishments
around. No drunks or weirdos, can't be bad.

Agree with other comments. A very odd pub. Unlike some
of the pubs in Teddington which are just full of old drunks. This pub seems to attract deliverance style
weirdos, who just sit there grinning at you bizarely.
Too weird.

The Norbiton and Dragon, Norbiton
The service here is quite appalling. A definite case
of the invisible man syndrome. Even if they do see you
waiting, staff are usually too busy yacking to their
mates. Don't bother with this place. The Wych Elm
or Willoughby Arms just down the road are far more
deserving of your custom.
A dump.

Unfortunately this place is a prime example of the souless dumps that have sprung up in Twickenham. Its ok if your 14 and want to get hammered as quickly as
poss. But if you enjoy going to a real pub for a decent pint get to the eel pie or the fox. This comment could be applied to the other half a dozen dumps in the area, lloyds No1, Hook, line and Sinker etc. If you've been here you'll know what I mean.

This pub is like a naff hotel bar full of middle age types trying to pick up young women, and its overpriced. But nice beer garden and no riff raff.

This pub is ok if you don't mind having to shout having a conversation. Loud, souless and bland.

Tony loves this pub. It certainly has a unique atmosphere.

Whats wrong with this pub is whats wrong with all Barras pubs. There aren't enough seats, the tables are rarely cleaned and they chuck you out bang on time. Your typical JB pub. No more, no less.

The Hook, Line and Sinker, Twickenham
Yet another souless, bland, dull pub. Just what the area needs!

The few times I have been in this pub, it didn't have any beer. Strange.
