The setting is very relaxed, the staff are very attentive and the food really does exceed expectations.
Sometimes you just want to escape to the countryside, thoughts of real ales, open fires, fur throws and home cooked pub dinners are a perfect treat. However, travelling too far from London is often the issue. Well fear no more, as Youngs & Co Brewery have brought the countryside to Twickenham with the very traditional Alexander Pope Hotel & Restaurant. Upon entry you have inviting leather armchairs in every nook and cranny, giving you the perfect space to relax together. A wide variety of any ones favourite tipple and the welcoming staff mean that you’ll have an easy time to prepare for dinner or just unwind after your travels. Going upstairs to the spacious rooms really brings the farmhouse feel to life. Clean and fresh colours for the walls and floors brings out the cool blues and exposed woods
that feature heavily. The fur throw, comfortable sofa and well-chosen accessories are the extra touch that really makes you feel at home. Each room has all of the main features you expect with the SKY TV, tea and coffee making facilities, iron, hair dryer and fridge. The TV even has BT Sports, so if you want to catch up on the football rather than the rugby around the corner, you can. You have free Wi-Fi in the rooms and a mini bar for when that extra drink is needed. Coming back downstairs you have the restaurant. With a very traditional feel, the menu is blended perfectly. Seasonal specialities and great produce have combined together to give the very classic dishes a home cooked vibe. Our personal favourites were the Baked Camembert with the rustic garlic
