When my Mum and I went here for dinner one night, it was early and and quiet but the service was good, they knew what they were doing and were helpful. The meals were exceptional and huge but were still good prices. One of the best meals I’ve had in a while and nice surroundings too.

A classic pub-style menu, unpretentious and very tasty, with generous portions, great friendly service, and a good range of beers on tap. Can get quite boisterous on a Friday night, but that’s part of the ambience – fine-dining this isn’t, and it makes no apologies for it!!

My partner and I often head to the stables in richmond when we want a nice night out thats not too expensive. The staff are always incredibly friendly, helpful and attentive and most importantly are not afraid to share a joke with us. They are also very knowledgable about what they are serving and on several occasions have assisted us with the exact ingredients in the meals!

The meals them selves are simple but delicious, the stuffed chicken breast is one of my favourites.

Would 100% recommend and in fact we are going there tonight for a special occasion!

Fantastic bar and restaurant.

I have eaten at The Stables many times and am pleased with the experience. As soon as you enter, you order your drinks which you can then take back to your table. Water is provided and service is quick to take your order. Waiting time is average but the meal is always served by a friendly member of the staff, and any specifics on the meal are detailed and followed through with. The restaurant is beautiful and has a warm fire for winter nights, and outside dining for summer. There is an average range of meal options but the staff are always ready to help, and you are asked for drink refills many times.

Initial service on arrival was a little too casual. eg We were to be seated upstairs and rather than be shown to our table, we were asked about drinks at the bar and carried the drinks upstairs rather than have thm brought to our table when we were seated.

After this however the service was attentive and unhurried, pleasant and friendly.

The meals however were excellent and the seafood platter waqs absolutely the best I have ever had.
Overall an excellent dining experience despite the dodgy start.
