The Old Frizzle

Richmond, Kew & Hampton Court


This lively, spacious bar serves reasonably priced drinks and impressive food – take on the Wimbledon Whopper burger if you fancy a challenge. The staff are always friendly, even when it’s very busy, and the live music creates a great atmosphere in the evenings.
