City Arms5 Portsmouth Road
Long Ditton
KT7 0XE
Fairly small, cosy pub on the main road near the Thames boating marina. The front bar has a wooden floor but leads to the more comfortable carpeted area at the end around the enclosed iron fireplace and wood panelled walls. At the side to the rear is an eating area and a smaller room also. Outside decked area overlooks the marina. Occasionally there’s a themed food night on Thursdays. There is a quiz on Tuesdays. Monthly live music. Popular with the locals.
Limping Fox15, Rushett Road
Long Ditton
KT7 0UX
Family run pub that majors on food, tucked away in a residential area. The modern décor included painted walls and varnished wood floor. It has one, three sided centre bar with seating areas surrounding it. Doors at the rear lead out to the pleasant patio and garden, currently with a heated marquee. The changing beers are from local breweries. Roasts on Sunday, followed by a pop-up Pizza stall outside early Sunday evening. Booking is advisable, particularly at weekends.
