Local area
King Street sits at the commercial heart of Richmond, a short walk from the District line and South Western Railway station and well placed for residents arriving on foot or by bus. Richmond is a town with a strong tradition of supporting independent and characterful businesses, and Sebastian’s Italian fits naturally into that fabric — the kind of place that becomes a regular haunt rather than a one-off destination. With Richmond Park and the Thames drawing people into the area throughout the year, the restaurant is well positioned to serve both locals and those making a day of it in the borough.
