Greenwich’s Favourite Local Pub
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.
Winter Set Menu
From 5th January to 27th February, we’re serving a weekday Winter Set Menu that leans into the best of Britain’s cold-weather produce. Think cosy flavours, comforting favourites, and those small-but-brilliant touches that make winter feel wonderfully indulgent.
Tuck into 2 courses for £19 or 3 courses for £23 a delicious way to dodge the chill and linger a little longer at the pub. Winter can be bleak… but your lunch or dinner doesn’t have to be.
Our Food and Drinks
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.
