A nice pub to visit if you fancy a cheeky pint on your own during the week. The staff are lovely and always polite. It’s a very local pub, so I always avoid it during the quiz and would never visit on a weekend. But saying that, a lovely pub, nice food, and lovey decor! All I would say to the brewery would be this: please do something to the bathrooms. Could do with s re-vamp!

I found this neighbourhood pub friendly and welcoming. Nor too big, sofas and armchairs in addition to tables and benches, background music at pleasantly low volume, a small beer garden in the back and a couple of partially sheltered tables in the front (mainly for those who consider a pint-and-smoke an undivisible pleasure), the staff cordial and efficient, a comfortable and relaxing ambiance which I have enjoyed both for just a drink and for a full dinner. The food is very good, and the menu includes complete servings for a full meal as well as small plate and bites to complement a drink. I will go back.

My wife, myself and a visiting family member from California had an early supper earlier this evening at the Arab Boy on Upper Richmond Road. It was our first post-COVID visit and - although we hadn’t booked a table - we were warmly received and had the choice of several non-reserved tables. Service was excellent and our orders were promptly taken - myself taking advantage of one of the ‘Fish Friday’ £14 offers - Haddock, fat chips and mushy peas. Delicious it was too! All in all, a most enjoyable evening - one we’re likely to repeat before too much longer!

I fancied a few beers and a meal while I worked, but found the WiFi wasn't working. Barmaid was unhappy being interrupted from playing with her phone, told me she didn't know where the router was to reboot it, she couldnt find out, and that no, she wouldn't leave a message that there was a problem for whoever did know. Was rudely told I should have bought a data plan for my phone. Went out of her way from the very start of the conversation to make it plain she couldn't care less and that she resented my having interacted with her. I took my custom to The Rocket a short way away where the beer is half the price, the WiFi works, the staff aren't rude and the view is nicer since it's smack bang by the river. Hopefully the Arab Boy will sell out to one of the pubcos that have procedures in place to ensure adequate staff training, proper handling of feedback/complaints and maintenance of facilities. Being independently owned - which they proudly trumpet as a differentiator - isn't a selling point if one's crap and hires staff that don't give a toss about customer service.

2nd takeaway from The Arab Boy and both times have been amazing. Portion sizes are huge! First time we had a selection of small plates (calamari, chicken wings, hallomi sticks, truffle chips) plus Mac n cheese with Stilton. Delish! Just now we have had a buttermilk burger, Mac n cheese (addicted now) and crispy fried artichoke small plate. Enjoyed every bit of it, delivery is quick and everyone is so friendly. Don’t actually live far away from the pub so think it will become our new go to when everything opens up!

Quirky sort of place, good range of beers and ales, decent looking menu. Staff and locals both friendly. However, one of the very few places in the area still to have a minimum charge for cards (£5) with so many places going cashless this feels out of date, almost twee and for me at least not in keeping with modern establishments. Also, saw a mouse running around the floor, bar staff seemed unconcerned?!

Nos reunimos con cinco amigos para probar el cuestionario del jueves por la noche. Esto fue muy divertido, pero la noche fue decepcionada por el servicio extremadamente lento para la comida que todos pedimos. ¡Más de una hora para recibir nuestras comidas, en mi caso una ensalada! Algunos obtuvieron su comida después de que la prueba terminó. Dijo que la cocina estaba muy ocupada, pero el pub no estaba lleno y debería estar preparado para múltiples pedidos de comida si quieren atraer apoyo para el cuestionario. . . y tenemos la impresión de que esta situación sucede mucho. Así que me sentí decepcionado, a pesar de que las comidas estaban bien una vez que finalmente llegaron.

Whenever I come to Putney I've always gone to the Arab Boy for the quiz run by Phil. The pub is fine and the food ok but the quiz was quirky and different. Sadly I've learned today that Phil's quiz is no more and is being replaced by a formulaic quiz. This is very sad and for me it's possibly the last time I'll go in the pub.

This pub was recommended so we thought we'd give it a try for a late Sunday Roast and we're glad we did. Once you get past the smokers milling around outside of the front door, the pub itself was nicely open-plan, warm & inviting with a friendly, fairly eclectic clientele. The bar staff were also friendly & professional and whilst the menu was not extensive it had roasts available which is what we wanted. The roasts were hot, the pork tender & the crackling perfect, the vegetables were nicely crunchy & the roast potatoes well roasted. Unfortunately, whilst tasty, the gravy was a little weak & watery but this is a minor niggle. They pour a fabulous Guinness and the cocktails sounded delightful so we will certainly be back - another Sunday Roast Venue added to the list.

We dined here on a Friday night with friends who live nearby. The bar was busy with a great atmosphere. We waited for some time near the dining area to get someones attention to be seated, but in the end had to approach the bar staff to ask if we could get a table. Sure, they showed us to a table but that seemed to be the end of that. No-one came back to give us menus or take drinks orders, nothing! When we eventually managed to get menus and then find someone to take our order, the service from that point was forthcoming. Our food arrived quickly and was delicious. Between the four of us, we had ordered four different meals and everyone was happy. Such a shame the initial lack of service let this establishment down.

This is an attractive cosy looking gastro pub with plenty of seating. The day we went it was cold outside and not much warmer in the pub. Prices are quite high even for London, £3 for a shot of lime cordial is ridiculous, I had the roast lamb and the portion was tiny so at around £15 very poor value. The sticky toffee roulade was, however, superb. The service is shocking we waited over half an hour for our food also had to wait ages to be served at the bar, not because there was a queue but because there were no staff around. The toilets are freezing cold and very shabby, a refurb is much needed.

Great local pub. We often have the selection of bar snacks (the chipolatas are my favourite) but the fish and chips on a Friday is good too.

It is reputed to be one of the oldest pubs in Putney having being built in the mid 1860s. Having known about this pub since childhood, I have never had the opportunity to visit it until very recently. It has obviously had a refurbishment since those early days of passing it whilst looking in the windows. I was there on a Thursday lunch time between 13.00 and 15,00hrs when there were few customers. The bar is L shaped, the main part facing in-coming customers with the side part more convenient for what is predominantly the dining area. The front part provides a choice of tables at various heights with high seating or comfortable arm chairs, or bar stools. Menus are cylindrically folded and kept in glass tumblers on the table but specials are shown on a wall board.As it was very quiet there was only one member of the bar staff but he was later joined by another. During the time I was there, it appeared that delivery was being taken of large upright freezers and removal of the existing ones. It was a good time as the manoeuvrering would have have been a little disruptive had the pub been more crowded. The installation of the freezer cabinets may have prevented food being served temporarily as I noticed a small group come in and go out again and later a couple did the same. I found the barman pleasant and polite and delivered my order following up a little later with an enquiry about my satisfaction with it. I selected from their burger range, choosing the pulled pork. This was served with a cocktail stick to keep the burger together, a wire cylindrical container with a generous portion of delicious fries which were light in texture, and a celery slaw which was a delight to the taste buds. Supplementing this, was a condiment basket with wrapped knife and fork, and a small jar of ketchup. Perhaps the price of £12 was on the higher side of average but the meal itself was ample and tasty. The music through the speakers was not to my taste generally speaking and because of that, the volume seemed a tad on the high side.The draught beer was an interesting selection including one brewed especially for the pub bearing the name of the "arab boy" from Turkey after whom the pub is called and who was the second landlord of the pub following the death of the original owner.The pub is 12 mins unhurried walk from Putney station and because of that is just a little out of the centre. Although the pub serves a local area and likes to be regarded as a "local" it is more up-market and bordering on being a gastro-pub evidenced by the dining area being tastefully laid out. The toilets were clean although just a little cramped. One cubicle door in the gents was alarmingly stiff and needed some force to pull it open otherwise incarceration may have happened.The prices reflect the status of the more affluent clientele. My impression is that of a pleasant and comfortable pub without being magnetic. Having said that, if opportunity arises I could be tempted to spend another couple of hours in there.

With more and more Pubs closing their doors these days, the Arab Boy is one of the relatively few between the top of Putney High St and Sheen. It also claims to be one of the oldest and few people would question that.As such, it has a good number of regular clients as well as themed evenings (Monday is steak night and Thursday attracts a good number of local quiz teams). I went there with two,friends for dinner - the menu is not extensive (it supplements a good range of £4.50 - or 3 for £10 - bar snacks) but satisfies most tastes.I had a nice grilled chicken dish with my colleagues opting for the hamburger and steak options - all were promptly served and well received. All in all, a good local Pub - with a garden option - that I would be more than happy to return to.

7/10 - First of all this is a lovely local pub, it was very busy on a Monday evening really nice atmosphere. Bar staff were very friendly, and there was a good selection of interesting beers. The food was hit and miss. I ordered the 3 bar snacks for £10 which was superb. The scotch egg was brilliant, runny egg in the middle, crispy thin outside layer and really tasty meat layer. Delicious, and not one of those ones they just bang in microwave that has a hard boiled egg in the middle. The mozzarella risotto balls were also delicious, again nice and crisp on the outside, not too thick, and the inside was moist and tasty. The sausage roll was a proper sausage roll, not the cheap ones you get from most places. It was well filled and the pastry was golden and caramelised. It was so good, like you get from borough market etc. The person I was dining with had the steak which looked quite disappointing, he didn't even finish it. I have eaten here before and been a little disappointed. However I do think the food overall is improving here as I have been before and my recent meal was by far the best I have had. Worth a visit.

Not eaten here but the beer is hugely expensive. Pub is over lit so feels like you're sat in an operating theatre.

excellent food - slow roasted pork with sweet potato and black pudding cabbage, nicely presented and hot. Friendly staff and well chilled cider

I live nearby, and this is a lovely pub for a couple of drinks. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, lovely decor.When I ate here though, the food wasn't fab. I had a roast chicken, which was fairly expensive for what you get. A whole baby chicken, which is great, but only 2 potatoes, hardly any veg. Not nearly enough gravy but I would've felt cheeky asking for more!My friends had houmous - which was tiny and uninspiring - and 'Indonesian chicken skewers'. These were just 3 bits of Chicken on a skewer (completely plain!) with some sweet chilli sauce in a tiny dip dish. Far too expensive for what it was!

Eaten here a number of times, excellent food, good value food and drink, friendly staff behind the bar. Fish and chips is particularly good! Only downside is that it can sometimes be quite quiet if going in for a drink on an evening compared to other places in putney but never had a bad experience.

Wonderful decor, friendly and super efficient staff, FABULOUS food, great wine and they even show the big sporting fixtures.The pistachio ice cream was the best we have ever had. Best of all it's incredibly good value for money. We shall be back very soon. Worth travelling some distance to visit the Arab Boy. Well done a great job at this special place.

It is a pub but it serves food well above what you can get in a normal pub. Dishes are very well presented, excellent in quality and the wine list, though not enormous, has plenty of good vintages in it. Service is friendly and efficient though you should not expect to be served before 18:30 even if they say food is available since 18:00. After that it gets better.

I was very pleasantly surprised by their sunday roast. I popped in after a long playday in the park with my dog and the beef sirloin roast was exactly what I needed to warm up again and re-energise. the beer selection is good too, thank you for your recommendation, Laurynas. big thumbs up for warm customer service and for being dog-friendly

Nice restaurant, good food, reasonably priced. Staff very p!easant. Reasonable wine list. Table for two a little small and close to the adjoining tables.
