The Eel Pie - (Near Richmond upon Thames, london)

S San A Gem in the Heart of Teddington What truly makes it special is the atmosphere. It is cosy, friendly, and full of character. You are not just a customer here; you are treated like family. It is the kind of place where you pop in for a quick espresso and end up staying for a chat. A true neighbourhood treasure – the food is amazing, just like you are in Italy. Every bite feels authentic, comforting, and made with genuine passion.

Carlos Dias-Madeira We popped in for our first visit as a family meal to celebrate our 19-year-old son’s birthday. He loves steak, so trying the newly opened (8 weeks) Twickenham steakhouse felt like a must — and we’re very glad we did. Between us, we ordered a variety of steaks, all served with generous portions of chips and mushrooms. I left my ribeye in Tom’s hands to cook as he saw fit, and it was absolutely delicious. Friendly service, a good wine selection, and a relaxed, no-frills atmosphere made for a very enjoyable evening. It was a quiet night — Saturday 3rd January is probably one of the quietest nights of the year anywhere — but we were all very happy with the experience. We’ll definitely be back to try breakfast another day.

Jodie Morgan Seriously, Eleanas Bistro is a must-visit and has completely blown away every other high street spot weve tried. From the moment we walked in, the entire experience was truly exceptional. ​ ​The menu is a sensational journey! We started our day with the Athenian Eggs, and they were nothing short of spectacular—perfectly cooked, beautifully plated, and bursting with incredible flavor. We also indulged in the Koulouri Paros, which was so fresh, fluffy, and utterly delicious. ​Our drinks were just as impressive. The Latte and the Matcha were both expertly crafted to perfection—rich, smooth, and exactly the high-quality boost we needed. ​It is clear that Eleanas takes immense pride in every single item they serve. ​While the food is stellar, what truly elevated our visit was the phenomenal staff. Every single person was incredibly friendly, warm, and attentive. They made us feel so genuinely welcome and clearly take immense pride in delivering outstanding service. ​If you are looking for the absolute best brunch experience, do yourself a massive favor and visit Eleanas Bistro! We will absolutely be making this our new regular spot!

Tom harvey The best authentic Vietnamese food! Rapid service, super friendly staff. Everything about it was perfect, theres tonnes of variety so I will definitely be coming back!

C Lam An amazing riverside steak experience alongside the picturesque River Thames in SW14, arguably the most perfect location in London! The service was impeccable, as the waitress juggled through both indoor and outdoor patrons but always maintained a smile despite the infamous British / European heatwave. Kudos to her for her tremendous service. Each dish was faultless despite there being, possibly 100+ guests being served simultaneously! The ribeye was good! Filet was even better, but I was stunned and mesmerised by the sirloin! This was the gold standard. All of starters were exceptional, and probably required several additional top ups! The salad was very green, and executed to perfection despite this being a steakhouse, as attention and due care was given here! As for the dessert, you only need to look at the readiness of the patrons roaring to attack! The crumble definitely was the choice to be had! Overall… exceptional…

Elton Hiew Absolutely delicious! You can really taste how fresh the fish is. I had the fried haddock & chips while my wife went for the grilled version — both were fantastic. Prices are reasonable too. Highly recommended!
