About The Royal Richmond Hotel
The Royal Richmond Hotel is a family-owned pub in Richmond where Windsor Street meets East Market Street, looking across to Richmond Park and about 200 metres on foot from Richmond station. It has traded since 1848, and its kitchen leans on Hawkesbury growers and producers, with cuts dry aged on site and a rotisserie in the bistro. Functions run across several areas that can be booked alone or together. The Cocktail Lounge, carpeted and lined with timber, has fireplaces, its own cocktail bar and high and low seating for 50 seated or 80 standing. The Sports Lounge suits around 40, and the glasshouse-style Bistro takes 180 seated or 250 standing across its east and west sides. Outside, the all-weather Terrace Bar has a full-service bar, a large LED screen, Bluetooth audio and custom lighting for 100 seated or 200 standing, and can be taken exclusively. A drinks-only Outdoor Terrace overlooks the old village rooftops. All up, the pub caters for groups from 5 to 500. Food comes as canapés ordered by the piece, a $50 per person set menu with shared starters and an alternate-drop main, a $65 per person share menu, or a selection from the bistro menu including pizza. Vegan options are available on request. Drinks run on a bar tab with a limit and drink list you choose, or guests buy their own, with wristbands identifying who is on the tab. There is no room hire, though some spaces carry a minimum spend, and the venue has a house sound and lighting system with microphones and screens in most areas.

Great entertainment whilst eating dinner. Deserts were yummy. Entertainment was Karyn Catalano and would absolutely go again if she was singing. Thank you

The atmosphere was lovely. The design of the building and interior was gorgeous. The bathroom was spotlessly clean. The food was delicious. The service was a little slow. I highly recommend and will go back.
