Been here a few times for both drinks, food and NYE. Drinks - fine selection - always a nice white chilled pinot on the go and never feel stung by high prices đź‘Ť NYE - A great night! Danced for about 5 hours straight. The locals/regulars are all super friendly and chatty when you walk in and some like a good boogie which is a bonus đź•ş Staff - staff are great. Friendly and chatty people. You never have to wait long to be served even when busy. It's a real well run pub. The chef is a genius. Food - A must try. Freshly prepared food by a brilliant chef - huge portions (for me, anyway but I am very small!) - absolutely beautiful, mouth-watering food - even my very particular daughter agreed! Landlords - I've been recently lucky enough to get to know Steve and Claire a little better since they became landlords. They are good, honest, no nonsense, wonderful people. They really care about their community and bringing people together and make sure people enjoy themselves and forget about life's challenges and stresses when they walk through their doors. You're always greeted well and it's one of few pubs I can comfortably walk in, as a woman on my own, and feel safe and confident in, which is so important these days. All in all, there is no better, friendlier pub in Sutton with reasonably priced food and drink. I couldn't recommend it more highly. I really need to go and have brunch there - am looking forward to that!
Came here with friends on 13th Jan to see a live band which were excellent and so glad I did, the pub however was a different story - when we first walked up the outside was covered in discarded cigarette butts and left over takeaway rubbish, half the planters were dead and ashtrays overflowing, we met our group they told us there was only one bar maid on all night -a few red flags already! Then the post mix ran out so could only buy bottles with as mixers, though looking at my spend the next morning I’m sure we were still only being charged for post mix (so 5* on that one) then the options began to dwindle on the options as full fat coke ran out, not good for us as a group of persnickety gits like us who are fussy about our mixer. We were contemplating leaving after the first half of the set but decided to stick it and honestly glad we did, firstly the band, Sorted for cheese and Fizz, was excellent, 90s Britpop & indie music (my era) and the real reason we went in the first place, and the only reason I’m giving this a 3* was the staff, now I was a pub manager for 20 years so this comment comes from experience, the barmaid was alone and working her backside off to do her job, and did a superb effort, yes we had to wait but not her fault and she faced everyone with a smile and every challenge head on like an expert, then there’s the chef who as soon as she finished in the kitchen came straight to bar and helped and again did an excellent job, i later found out she had started work at 7am and was still punching it at midnight (no doubt she’s back there Sunday morning to prep Roasts) and I don’t think it fair to not mention who I believe was the cleaner who sat there polishing and wrapping cutlery and collecting glasses (not her job) in order to lend a hand. These 3 team members should be extremely proud of their achievement that night and are a great asset to that business, the manager should both be ashamed and embarrassed about the situation he left his team in, it was also brought to light that he hadn’t even told the bar maid that there was a band on that night - terrible behaviour for a manger - all those that work or have worked in this trade know that in this situation you put your pub and customers first, pull up your sleeves and get on that bar and work! Serious questions need to be asked here. Well done to those working that helped us enjoy our night, you did yourselves proud.
This is a great pub that sits off Sutton High street so was nowhere near as busy as some in the High street. It is bright and clean. Bar staff were friendly and a good choice of beers, larger and ciders. There are two dart boards and as we left a band was setting up. We didn't eat there so unable to comment.
Visited today - the Landlord is lovely as are all the staff. Great roast at a very reasonable price - can’t wait to come back soon!
I came here today for work.... Friendly, popular local pub The new Landlady Claire / landlord Steve who took over 8 weeks ago seem very nice people. Refurbished last year this beautiful pub was serving up some lovely looking food. I was met be Claire, very welcoming and really friendly. The place looks great after the refurbishment. It's got sports on the TV's with dining and seating areas out front and to the rear. It has a mid sized function room upstairs with some tables and chairs, this room also has a small bar. You'll have to ask one of them for more information on maybe using this for moms clubs and such or for celebrating 🤗 It has a Dart board and a huge selection of drinks... It looks a nice place for locals to relax and unwind. Best of luck with the new pub guys
