The Ultimate Guide To Richmond, London

Copyright Artem Vorobiev via Getty Images The London town where "Ted Lasso" is set is truly picturesque. About a 30-minute train ride from central London, the town of Richmond wasn’t on most Americans’ radar until “Ted Lasso” ascended to pop culture prominence. First Things First, The ‘Ted Lasso’ Pub Although I skipped the guided “Ted Lasso” tour offerings, I still wanted to see the most popular filming location ― the titular character’s local pub. The town also features a number of little lanes and charming alleys, including the one where Jason Sudeikis’ Ted Lasso lives as the coach of the fictional English Premier League soccer team, AFC Richmond. At the end of Paved Court, you arrive at The Prince’s Head, the 300-year-old pub that serves as the exterior for The Crown & Anchor on “Ted Lasso.” Although the pub’s interior scenes were primarily filmed on a soundstage, it’s clear the real-life location has embraced its TV fame, with AFC Richmond gear on display and by far more American tourist patrons than I saw anywhere else in Richmond.
