Quins local pub... The Rifleman, Fourth Cross Road, Twickenham wil not be opening this Saturday


Statement from the pub...


Due to a combination of factors including uncertainty over required track and trace info and our suppliers not managing to get our orders to us in time we won’t unfortunately be opening this coming Saturday the 4th.

We’ll let you know which day it will be as soon as we know.

there's a few not opening quite yet, according to their websites. you can add The Albert, The Blutcher, Eel Pie to that list.

The only ones I know taking bookings are The Sussex & Brouge at the Goat.

I spoke to the landlord at the Aisla Tavern in St Margaret's. He was planning to open on the 4th.
St Margaret's Tavern has been open for takeaways - so I assume they will be open

No, I won't be there on Saturday.
The Richmond athletic association is opening on Saturday and I am popping down there. (I am also a member at Richmond). But, I am eager for pubs like the rifleman to reopen.
I feared that many pubs wouldn't survive the lockdown (along with other small local businesses). I have been trying to do my bit and buy drinks from the Sussex and Twickenham Fine Ale brewery.

Church St Twickenham

Tomorrow the Restaurants and the Fox will open in Church Street & there will be Al Fresco Dining. Most of our shops in the street are now open and more will follow soon!

he Rifleman

I spoke to the bar manager of The Rifleman on Saturday. He says they plan to open on Monday 13th July. They have to get rid of their 8 seater tables in the garden in order to comply with social distancing first.
