The Ted Lasso Way: A Richmond Walking Tour

Richmond is the leafy London suburb that became AFC Richmond’s home in Ted Lasso, the Emmy-winning series about an optimistic American coach managing an English football team – despite knowing nothing about soccer.

On this walking tour, you’ll visit the filming locations behind the show’s most memorable moments and find out how this historic town’s architecture, riverside views, and village charm made it the perfect backdrop for Ted’s journey of kindness and belief.

The tour starts at Richmond Train Station, and on the tour you will be walking in the footsteps of rock stars and royalty. You’ll walk around Richmond Green, the 700-year-old gathering space featured in countless scenes. Passing the Victorian theatre and the elegant Georgian houses that doubled as Rebecca’s home—along with the terrace used for Nate’s parents’ house—you’ll see how the town’s charming streets became part of the show’s identity.

You’ll follow Dr Sharon's riverside bike route to work along the Thames Path, climb Richmond Hill to the protected viewing point where Keeley had her lion photo shoot, and find Ted’s flat with its quirky 9 1⁄2 Paved Court address. Along the way, you’ll hear stories about the show’s recurring themes like the Wizard of Oz parallels, ‘rom-communism’ references, and the power of belief that Ted brings to Richmond. The tour ends at The Prince’s Head pub, which became the beloved Crown & Anchor, where Ted’s friendships flourished.

On this 90-minute tour, you’ll have a chance to:

• Stand where Roy, Keeley, and Phoebe knocked on doors searching for a dentist on Christmas Day
• See Amsterdam Square, which doubled as Amsterdam and the sewer entrance in series three
• Walk the Thames Path where Dr. Sharon cycled before her crash and Roy had his first date with Keeley
• Visit Brewers Lane and spot So Bar Richmond, which stood in for the exclusive Bones and Honey club
• Discover the cobbled alley where Ted and Rebecca had their vulnerable heart-to-heart outside the gala
• Climb to Richmond Hill’s famous viewpoint, painted by JMW Turner and protected by an Act of Parliament
• Stop at the empanada bakery where Ted and Coach Beard grab their morning coffee
• Sit on the iconic bench with red phone boxes where Ted and Beard share their deepest conversations

Whether you’re a lifelong season ticket holder, a devoted Diamond Dog, or simply Lasso-curious, this tour is for anyone who believes in hope, heart, and a good story.
