The Roebuck, Richmond Hill

No longer has a bar billiard table (which is why I visited), however the views over the Thames below almost made up for that and the beer was excellent too.

The Telegraph , Putney Heath

Re-opened in late July 06 after a five month refurbishment, which was well worth the wait. Describes itself as a country pub in London and although it is probably a little too polished to be truly a country pub it is a vast improvement on the 'old' telegraph.

Beer is more expensive than most Putney pubs at �3 a pint but the atmosphere is good. Lots of outside table and chairs and a few benches, so perfect for summer nights drinks in Putney Heath.

Decore is excellent, plush leather arm chairs, nice dining room and a pleasant little snug with a fire place and a well appointed function room upstais.

Several plasma screens dotted around the pub suggest that they will show sports but so far I have only seen the Open screened there.
