Walked in to the full house. But the bartender was kind enough to find me a table at the corner for one diner. He then patiently explain the amount of wine volume to me before charging me. The sausage I ordered came in 5 mins, they are precooked / boiled. Not very tasty but it’s was a quick fix on a Sunday evening peak hour.

We were actually walking to another restart when we passed by and thought we'd pop in. I'm so glad we did. The food was delicious. It was mid afternoon, so it was very quiet. The restaurant is beautiful with a historic and local feeling. Absolutely recommend The Stanhope Arms!

It's been ages since I last drank here. It's a different social atmosphere now. Definitely family friendly. (Of course they, like most pubs, they now serve proper food) While I was there, Monday lunchtime, it was busy, but not over crowded. There was a good mix of society there, and like me, clearly enjoying the pub.

The manager and staff were amazing! I got the BBQ Chicken Pub Classic and it was 10/10! It was very delicious! This is such a nice calming place to come and have a drink and wind down from London! I would 100% recommend visiting here!

Went here with my family for lunch and ended up going elsewhere to eat. We started by ordering drinks only to find out that half the taps were not actually available. We then went to order food only to be told that the sandwich’s we wanted to order were not available until after 4PM (that was not written on the menu and it was 1PM). We realized this was not a good sign and decided to just continue with drinks and the chip trio and wow I’ve never been so disappointed by an app/shareable. After waiting quite a while, the chips arrived soggy (not fully cooked), limited sauce on the chips, and…
