The Mitre was build by Young's in 1861 on leased land. The freehold was later bought in 1989 from the local church charity trust and is now a Free house. The pub is tucked away just off the A305 Sheen Rd or the Lower Richmond Road via Sheendale Road and railway bridge. Simply furnished with wood flooring, there is an outside decked area at the front and a patio garden at the back. The pub has a number of leaded stained-glass windows featuring different colourful church mitres. Smart refurbished toilets installed in 2016. The bar now sports 14 hand-pumps serving beers on constant rotation all from small independent brewers outside the M25. Three dedicated to cider/perry. Real cider not always available, expect Lilley's Cider at times. There are also three 'craft' keg lines installed on the bar with beers from the likes of Jaipur IPA, Wiper & True PA and Guinness (at normal temp), plus a lager. Log fire is lit during colder months. All cask beers except Timothy Taylor's are £3.50 on Mondays. CAMRA Branch Cider Pub of the Year 2024
Authentic Neapolitan style Pizzas available to eat in or take away Wednesday to Sunday. Monday Ale & Cider Club. All cask ale (except Timothy Taylor) and Cider £3.50 a pint. Home to Rudi, was officially the cutest pub dog in Britain in a book published in 2017.
The pub suffered considerably damage over the years; two bombs were dropped on it in WWII and the chimney stack fell though the roof during the 'great storm' of January 1990.
