The Mallard, Teddington

Not one of my normal hang outs .... until now. Enjoyed a superb bit of grub in the pub on Sunday and must say cant understand why so many people are so quick to dismiss this place by a quick glance through the window !!! Its not a bright naff gastro pub its been improved no end from the tatty old place and feels very welcoming and the food is fantastic. I also had an opportunity to meet one of the landlords and he was genuinly trying to give a decent pub back to the local people and was very conscious of the surrounding area and the history. Comments like ' i hope it fails badly' are unreal .... go have a pint and a bite to eat and Im opretty sure you'll be a tad happier.
