About Us — The Wych Elm Kingston

The pub

Independent, and looked after

North Kingston’s Wych Elm is a great little pub nestled in the heart of its community. We are family-run and independent owner-operators. Our resolve is to keep this neighbourhood pub a proper local with great food, quality drink and excellent friendly service.

We serve delicious freshly prepared food made by our expert kitchen team, while our award-winning 100% Cask Marque cellar stocks real ales, craft beers, lagers and regularly changing guest ales. We have a judicious wine and spirit selection and an enticing cocktail list.

The Wych Elm has a leafy, secluded garden sanctuary in summer, log burners in winter and a very warm welcome. We have a 92" projection screen with surround sound for important sporting events.

Some house rules

Children

Children are welcome, but we ask you to keep them with you at the table and not let them loose to roam around the pub. Please respect the fact that not all customers love your child as much as you do. We request that children under the age of 12 vacate the pub by 7.30pm. Floor space is limited in the pub and garden, so for everyone’s comfort and safety please avoid blocking walkways or exits. We advise folding buggies, or leaving them in your car or outside.

Dogs

Dogs are welcome, but with increasing numbers in the pub we ask you to leave your dog at home if possible. Keep your dog off the furniture and on a short lead by your table. If your dog is not used to a busy pub and barks or gets aggressive, we will ask you to take your dog out of the pub. Thank you.

Cheers!

Michael, Charlotte and the team.
