Perhaps surprisingly, the Eel Pie in this charming part of Twickenham has only been a pub for ~32 years - it was previously a wine bar. It has all the feel of a traditional pub, with a distinctly historic look, and much rugby-orientated paraphernalia. All the food is home made, with lunches daily. The landlord and his wife are proud of their position as one of Hall and Woodhouse's top performing pubs. This friendly pub is close to the river and only a 15 minute walk from the home of rugby or 20 minutes from 'The Stoop' the home of Harlequins RFC. The pub is closed for a major transformation and reopened Feb 14th 2014. The curvy wooden copper-toped bar with 10 hand-pulls and leaded glass panels above has to be seen and admired. The pub now has been extended with a restaurant area. Note: This is a CARD ONLY payment pub!
