Weekly Wind-Up #2274 2274 ? 12 November 2026 KINGSTON (KNG) Willoughby Arms, 47 Willoughby Rd, Kingston upon Thames. KT2 6LN ?? A fifth visit to the Willoughby Arms, which we last visited just over a year ago. This Victorian back street local is divided into a sports bar with games and a quieter lounge area. There is also a large garden with a number of 'beach huts'. Up to 7 beers are on hand pump, which tend to be sourced from smaller and local breweries and always includes something dark. Pizzas are available, cooked to order.

Tonight we visit the 'Hope' again, but a week earlier than their beer festival so that we should have more room!

Up to seven real ales are available on hand pump and 'pot meals' are also offered until 22:00.

Eight cask and eight keg ales as well as over twenty ciders are offered and CAMRA discount applies. No food available, seek local alternatives. Opens 16:00.
