We booked a table for four early evening to celebrate my fathers birthday. The pub was moderately busy but service was quite prompt and friendly. For mains two duck breasts, one beer battered fish and chips and one steak were ordered. Portions were generous, especially the fish - described by Dad as "a whale"! Three out of four dishes were...

We live in Belgium but were recommended this pub as a meeting place with some family members for lunch before going to the rugby at Twickenham. The setting is lovely, very pretty and quiet, you would hardly know you were in London. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The food choices were great and we didn't have to wait... More

Sometimes this place is pretty super and really delivers, with solid value for money (Irish Manager runs a great operation, and is professional and charming). However sometimes the staff let the place down and the other delightful staff (rude female Polish barmaid on several occasions, whereas the majority of the staff are great- especially Chris). ONE MAJOR PROBLEM: CHILDREN running... More

We have had many lunch and evening meals at the Plough over the last twelve months and have introduced family and friends, all have been impressed with the high standard of food and intelligent wine list. Lovely location with Richmond Park nearby but tucked away from main roads. Outside seating for all weathers and the staff are, overall, competent and... More

Sunday visits twice in the last 12 months. We should go more. The food is excellent and the atmosphere is the right blend for people to enjoy a drink or the food. I highly recommend this place for the quality of the service. A walk to East Sheen Common is also recommended.

Set at the top of a cul-de-sac and away from the bussy Upper Richmond Road, drinking out the front feels like you be in a Dorset village. In the summer, especially, it is nice to hear the chirping of parakeets which live in the neighbuoring Richmond Park. The food's good, there's a nice lunch menu, the outside seating is pleasant...

During the past year I've become quite a regular customer at The Plough. To be honest, having lived in Sheen all my life, I have never heard anyone recommend it... but now, having discovered it myself, I really can't understand why! In recent months I've taken over a dozen friends for meals there at various times - and every time... More

I turned up at the Plough yesterday evening with two dear and long-lost cousins. The place was fairly full, and we were hungry. Although we hadn't booked, they found us a table really quickly (in a delightful alcove - perfect for catching up on the news), and the food was delicious - and reasonable. My wild boar ragout was fantastic,... More

I have been coming to The Plough for years and each time we visit East Sheen we always go for a drink and something to eat. The Plough itself as a pub has never really changed and is still worth a visit and on a sunny day or evening it's a delightful place to sit outside. Two years ago we... More

This was an old fashioned Pub which had a timeless charm about it. The Food (then) was the usual Pub Fayre and pretty good, if not exciting or spectacular. However it was bought out and the new owners tried to imitate The Victoria which is 5 minutes away, which itself was a former old fashioned Pub converted into a Gastro... More
