Gaucho Richmond offers private dining and exclusive hire on the banks of the Thames. The full venue takes 250 guests seated or 350 standing, the riverside terrace takes 150 seated or 200 standing, and a private dining room seats 12. The restaurant is on The Towpath, Riverside, in Richmond, with views of Petersham Meadows and Richmond Bridge.
Seminars and company events
Gaucho presents its private spaces for events of different sizes, from a long lunch to a full-room celebration. For a company dinner or a staff party, the three options cover very different group sizes. The private dining room suits a board dinner for up to 12. The full venue suits a large reception or party. The official site lists Wi-Fi, an AV screen and a private bar among the amenities for this location. It does not present a seminar or meeting offer, so day-long programmes with plenary sessions are not what this venue sells.
Weddings and receptions
The site does not mention weddings for this restaurant. It does describe celebrations, with a team that brings Latin American hospitality to the occasion. A reception with a drinks and dinner format can be enquired about, and the terrace extends the space on warmer days. Ask the events team directly whether a wedding-related event is possible before planning around it.
Rooms and capacities
The restaurant lists three spaces. The Full Venue holds 250 seated or 350 standing. The Private Dining Room seats 12 and, like the other private rooms in the group, has its own door, its own table and its own service. The Riverside Terrace holds 150 seated or 200 standing. The main dining room is glass-panelled, and the location lists natural daylight, a private bar, Wi-Fi, an AV screen and an outdoor terrace. Exclusive hire and semi-private formats are both offered.
Catering
The kitchen cooks over open fire, which is the group's approach since 1994. The menu centres on Argentinian-style steak, with Latin American dishes alongside, and the restaurant has a wine list and a cocktail bar. The site does not publish group menus for this location, so menus and drinks for your event are agreed with the events team. For a full-room event, the grill becomes yours alone.
History and setting
Gaucho began in 1994 and now runs 19 restaurants in the United Kingdom. The Richmond site stands on the towpath, with the Thames beside it. The riverside setting is what separates it from the group's city-centre rooms. The site gives no history of the building itself.
Getting there
The address is The Towpath, Riverside, Richmond TW10 6UJ. The site does not state a nearest station, so check access and parking when you send your enquiry. Use the website's enquiry form or the restaurant's phone number to ask about dates and the events team.
