The Railway Tavern

You'll find The Railway Tavern right on The Quadrant, that busy stretch where Richmond feels properly lived-in rather than polished. It's the sort of place where locals actually drink—the kind that doesn't need to try too hard because the basics are done right. The vibe is reassuringly unfussy: decent ales, a menu that doesn't overcomplicate things, and enough regulars at the bar to give it proper atmosphere without feeling exclusive. It's become a reliable favourite because it does what pubs are supposed to do.
