The Fox

The Fox

Affording a rich history, The Fox has stood on this site since 1670. It serves real ale and British food in its characterful, cosy interior.

St Margarets Fair

St Margarets Fair

Held once a year, it's a great day out for all the family - live bands, face painting and traditional games.

Armstrong's Family Butchers

Armstrong's Family Butchers

Armstrong's are first class in every way. Excellent flavour to all the meats, there's a good selection of cheeses and cooked hams, and the lamb shanks are enormous!

Ches's Trattoria

Ches's Trattoria

During the day this place functions as a greasy spoon café usually full of builders, but in the evening it turns into an amazing, authentic, family run Italian restaurant. The food is to die for and because they don't have an alcohol licence, its BYOB!

Close to St Margarets Station, this place is a cosy 'old man' style pub with a welcoming atmosphere.

"In the mid-1700s, Horace Walpole bought Strawberry Hill House and transformed it into a gothic villa. It was here that he was inspired to write what is considered the first ever gothic novel, 'Castle of Otranto'."

Twickenham has a lot to offer, including many pubs by the Thames with gardens that open out right onto the river bank.

Greg Boxer

Marble Hill Park is a great place for walking my dog or having a picnic overlooking the river.

Oliver Pym

This is my favourite view of Richmond Bridge and riverside!

What locals say about TW1

  1. I love The Crown pub next to Marble Hill Park for a Sunday Roast.

  2. It may be small but St Margarets rocks. Great cafes and independent shops - and within walking distance of Richmond.

  3. St Margarets has a pretty village feel within walking distance of Richmond and the River Thames. There is a strong community with street parties and fairs and lots of great cafes and restaurants. Marble Hill Park is a beautiful park right on the banks of the river Thames and next to the foot ferry which can take you over to Ham House and Petersham.
