Located on the historic Royal Hill, 5 mins walk from the centre of Greenwich, and only 400m from Greenwich DLR station. Upon entering you are greeted by the traditional bar space which is the heart of the pub. To the rear of the pub you'll find our stunning conservatory, a relaxing drinking and dining space showered in natural light. Beyond that, our beautiful beer garden. A large, open space bathed in sun during the summer and covered by our stretch tent in the winter. We specialize in Young's award-winning ales, craft beers, and delicious, nostalgic British food. We are the perfect location for a relaxed post-work drink or a family and friend gathering. We want the Richard The First to be your home away from home, and our team looks forward to welcoming you very soon.
