About us:
The Alexander Pope pub & hotel is a stylish hub for Twickenham & Teddington, just a five-minute walk from Strawberry Hill Station. Serving all the pub classics we have a particular focus on fresh fish which we champion via our daily 'Skipper's Catch'. On rugby days you can find the pub buzzing with all the pre-match diners, not to mention our live music nights and famous quiz nights.
