We had our wedding reception at the Duke’s Head and we had a lovely experience! The communication with the staff before the day was very smooth and they were very flexible to accommodate our needs (we chose one of the set menus but made some adjustments). On the day we had Jolanda and Kim to look after us and they were very present but discreet. The food was spot on - delicious and very warm! The Wolsey Room is so beautiful and bright - our guests were so impressed and the kids invited had plenty of room to play. We can’t recommend this location enough for a wedding celebration!

Great location by the river, with basement bar serving the outside tables. Good selection of drink. Menu is concise, sensibly priced and very well cooked and served. Special mention to Kieran who worked the basement bar, interacting with punters and made it a great night out.

Visited for the Chanel 2026 Boat Race An absolute cracking day, band was good. However in my opinion they should have started 2 hours before. Maybe have the band outside on a stage instead of the outside bar. 2 Negatives The room the band actually played in was in some respects overcrowed sometimes & possibly should have been managed. Never the less great time. Toilets upstairs, way to small for the amount of people they had to service. Womens queue was on the stairs, pretty dangerous. With that it mind women where in the men's trying to use the 1 stall also. Not ideal.

I had a fantastic experience at The Duke’s Head. The location is hard to beat, with stunning views over the River Thames. The service was excellent throughout our visit – friendly, attentive, and welcoming without ever feeling intrusive. The staff went out of their way to make sure everything was just right, which really added to the overall experience. The food was equally impressive. The sausages and mash were absolutely delicious. It was also great to see a well-thought-out kids menu, which made dining with family so much easier and ensured everyone had something they enjoyed. To finish, the Bakewell tart from the specials menu was outstanding and the perfect end to the meal. One thing that really stood out was how dog-friendly the pub is. It's wonderful to find a place that welcomes four-legged guests so warmly, making it an ideal spot for dog owners to enjoy great food, drinks, and the beautiful riverside setting without having to leave their furry companions behind. The Duke’s Head is one of the best pubs in Putney. I’ll definitely be returning and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable pub experience.

Diners like this pub's delicious and well-prepared food, including Sunday roasts and pub classics, and its wide selection of drinks. They also highlight the warm, lively atmosphere, stunning river views, and friendly, attentive staff.

Some reviews mention the service can be inefficient.
