About The Thomas Tripp

The Thomas Tripp on Wick Lane in Christchurch is an old smugglers haunt, named after a brigand and local hero who was finally apprehended here and later hanged. Today it’s a pub and freehouse that’s brim full of character with stripped wooden floors and oil paintings adorning the bare brick walls. Food is served right through from 12 noon daily and Head Chef Quentin Royles is passionate about local produce. Expect traditional pub favourites with a twist. You can eat anywhere in the pub as well as in the covered garden with heaters. There’s a great drinks selection too with a constantly changing choice of cask ales and craft lager. The Thomas Tripp is also a popular music venue with live acts as often as five nights a week in high season.

Traditional yet quirky. Relaxed atmosphere. Lovely staff. Quality twists on Sunday roasts. Great ale. Wish we lived nearby and hope to return.

Had a great light lunch and will be booking again. We just had starters which were delicious. The table next door were raving about the roast so will be back to try. Very friendly staff and great atmosphere.

First visit to this pub and what a great looking place . Staff were very friendly, live singer was an added bonus and very good he was too . The roast beef dinner was fantastic ! The only small critique was after booking for 3pm we still had quite a wait for the food . Highly recommend the pub though

Excellent roast beef Sunday lunch, good size serving with interesting selection of vegetables and lashings of gravy. Weekday lunches just as scrumptious and the service is always great. A gem of a pub.

The Sunday roast we had was delicious, always a nice amount of food on the plate and also a generous amount of gravy to go with it. Service was really good.

We had a lovely meal at The Thomas Tripp, friendly service, good food. I had a Ceaser salad and spicy chips, Ceaser salad is a risky order I often think but it was great! Busy, fun atmosphere - would go again. Many thanks!

After searching online for a Sunday roast, we booked a table at The Thomas Tripp. It's a great place, steeped in history with a story to tell! The food and service were brilliant, and to top it off, there was live music. We will definitely be back!
