About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Kid-friendly
Great for outdoor dining

Set in a leafy residential area close to Richmond Park, The Victoria is a traditional public house and restaurant with a modern edge. Leading off from the cosy but spacious bar, The Victoria’s dining room is located in a bright and airy conservatory-style extension which overlooks a beautifully tended garden. During the day sunlight floods in, even on the darkest of days, while evening guests can dine with the stars as they twinkle over the beautiful candlelit room. With a varied and eclectic menu, The Victoria really does offer something for everyone with the best of British combining with touches of summery Mediterranean flavour, just a sprinkling of experimentation and all the skill of chef Paul Merrett and his team.

We had a really lovely Saturday afternoon lunch at The Victoria. The staff couldn't have been more accommodating - happy to change our booking as we extended our walk in a sunny Richmond Park. Food was delicious, staff hugely welcoming, great service and they even welcomed my muddy dog with a bowl of water and dog treats. Definitely recommend and will be coming back.

We had another great dinner experience, this time off the special valentines menu. Unfortunately, where we attended on the last day of a three day menu, the main course of our choice was no longer available but, the chef made up an excellent alternative which we thoroughly enjoyed. We’ll be back again soon.

We’ve eaten here before and really liked it, but Saturday (when we took guests for the first time) was really mediocre. Two margaritas were distinctly average; much of the food reheated. Burgers couldn’t be eaten as such because the base of the very cold rolls was saturated. The two waitresses were doing their best but we’re not receiving supervision or support. A bizarre thing was that I wasn’t allowed to hold on to the wine list after I’d ordered the first bottle. I wanted to decide on a red in addition to the first white, but leaving it wasn’t allowed because there aren’t many copies. Mad!
The VictoriaResponded on February 2, 2025
Dear Rita, Thank you for your feedback. We are truly sorry that your meal on this occasion fell short of the positive experiences you’ve had with us in the past. We’re very disappointed to hear about your experience with the food. Your comments do not reflect the high quality we strive for, and we want to assure you that all our food is made fresh from scratch and never reheated. We will, however, make sure your comments are passed on to our kitchen team for review. We also apologize for the inconvenience regarding the wine list. You certainly should have been able to keep the list for as long as needed and we will ensure the team are more flexible on this moving forward. Thanks again and we hope to welcome you to welcome you back to The Victoria soon. Sincerely, Louisa The Victoria
