Jamie and the team welcome you to our much-loved neighbourhood pub perched on historic Royal Hill, just a short stroll from central Greenwich and a mere 400m from the DLR.
We’ve been the beating heart of the community since 1869, a place where neighbours become friends, dogs get fussed before their owners do, and everyone settles in for the kind of hospitality only a proper local can deliver.
Step inside and you’ll find carefully kept guest ales, craft beers poured just right, fine wines ready for swirling, and a back bar stacked with the good stuff.
Our menu leans into the classics, the kind of nostalgic, belly-hugging dishes that feel like home. Think roast dinners that anchor a Sunday and a sticky toffee pudding that could give any family recipe a run for its money.
Richard the First is, and always has been, a proper Greenwich local. Come on in, get comfy, and make yourself at home.
Get ready for proper pub grub done right. Our menu leans into the classics, those nostalgic, belly-hugging dishes that feel like home. Think roast dinners that anchor a Sunday, a cracking plate of fish and chips, and a sticky toffee pudding that could give any family recipe a run for its money.
Whether it’s a leisurely lunch or a cosy dinner, you’ll find generous portions, familiar favourites, and all the comfort of a good old-fashioned pub feast. And while you’re here, explore our line-up of spirits, well-kept wines, and proudly poured local craft beers, the perfect partners to any plate.
Greenwich is a place that wears its history proudly while never standing still, where royal heritage, riverside views and bold modern architecture all rub along rather nicely. It’s lively, characterful and full of stories, and we’re proud to be right at the heart of it.
Your dogs are always warmly welcome to our pub, we are dog friendly! We can’t promise that your cute pup won’t get more attention than you, but if they did, who would blame us?
Our gorgeous, covered and heated beer garden is made for alfresco moments, whatever the weather. Gather your friends, bring the family, or pop by with your dog and settle in with something tasty to eat and your favourite drink in hand.
Looking for a venue for your next celebration or event? We’ve got the space, and the stories — to make it special. Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering, a big birthday, or even a wedding celebration, our characterful indoor spaces and outdoor areas offer the perfect backdrop.
With a rich history woven into the walls and a pub that’s been bringing people together for generations, your event becomes part of that story too. Get in touch and let us help you plan a gathering worth raising a glass to.
Sun’s out(ish), spritz in hand, that’s the vibe. Settle into a comfy corner or head straight for our pub garden in Greenwich and sip your way through our line-up of dangerously drinkable cocktails.
