The Belle Vue in Lambeth

Went here for a anniversary roast, but, didn’t go as planned.. Booked roast for 3pm, place was quite packed but not that you couldn’t move. Arrived there and it took the waiter about 20 minutes to ask us for drinks, had to pick up our own menus because nobody gave them and waiter didn’t notice we didn’t have any.. only to find out that the only left roasts were chicken or veggie… oh well maybe they’ll taste incredible! Roast arrived and were incredibly disappointing, chicken had one part of the wing with some seasoning but was Bland AF, the Yorkshire puddings looked like the frozen ones from aunt Bessie’s. Nobody asked if we had enjoyed the food or not, just asked if we wanted dessert (guessing the waiter knew lol)… Overall a really bad place for food, might have been we arrived late (although 3pm for a Sunday roast doesn’t sound crazy) but will definitely not coming back neither would I reccomend it to anyone. Go for drinks, pub quiz can be alright but avoid the food..

My friends and I regularly make an appearance every Sunday and the staff are really accommodating, especially as we’re usually a big group. We play board games & card games (provided inside the pub) and have food/drinks - the roast is the best one in Clapham. Love that the food is affordable, unlike a lot of the other pubs in the area where a main is starting from £16+ for sub par food. Special shoutout to Jordan too!

Helpful and friendly staff and a great crowd in the pub - good atmosphere

Very warming and tasty take on a sunday roast. Ideally would liked a thicker gravey and fluffier potatoes but the crispiness was on point. Service was amazing considering only 2 on shift for a busy sunday lunch rush with a table of about 10 turning up with no reservations. The guys working dealt with it all calmly and still provided attention to their guests

Bellevue is a vibrant, modern pub with a buzzing atmosphere and a great young crowd. Perfect for a fun night out or casual drinks after work. Great vibes, friendly service, and a spot you’ll definitely want to revisit. Highly recommend!!!

Best bar/pub in the area. Decent prices. Fun atmosphere. Elite-quality service. The new general manager, Andy looked after us with the utmost care. The Belle vue is most certainly in safe hands. Definitely coming again

Food took 40 minutes yet the place was pretty much empty. The roast was cold and potatoes were dry. Not great especially for the price. But lovely location.

I hired a space in the Belle Vue for my 30th birthday party with 50+ guests - it was a fantastic atmosphere with great drinks and music! I can't thank the team enough for their help and service on the night, I would highly recommend for an event 😊

Amazing pub with great atmosphere and staff. Everyone is friendly, the music is awesome and the food/service/drinks were flowing all night. We were a big group and just had the best time. Can’t thank the team enough for their patience with our quirky requests and demands. Will definitely be back.

What a gem of a pub ! Staff is amazing, special thanks to Jordan and Erin. Seats are very comfortable and the pub is very spacious even on a friday evening. Would definitly go back and recommand !

We stopped at this pretty pub for lunch: the place is very beautiful, well decorated and pleasant. We had the classic burger, the meat was tasty and perfectly cooked on the grill. Small disappointment: no more craft beer (empty) with a very limited choice. But we had a nice time there, that's the main thing :-)

Great pub, burgers are great and great fun at the weekends! Definitely recommend

Great local pub, the staff are the absolute best! Always my go to for a night out with friends or just a chilled drink. Great selection of drinks too

Jamie and Erin were 10/10. If I could give more stars I would

Great service and lovely atmosphere 👍

Really cozy pub with lovely plush velvet chairs you can sink into and relax over a pint. Love the candlelit atmosphere and music’s great too. Staff are lovely, such a vibe.

Impromptu food at the Belle Vue made me think why the hell I haven't had food here before, noticed the menus and feeling peckish, order the Cheesy Cajun Chips and Chicken strips. Great presentation and absolutely delicious, the chicken was tender and crispy buttermilk was perfect. The cheesy chips with cajun spice were sensational and hit the spot perfectly. Will definitely be back to try more from the menu! Special thank you to Jamie and Erin for the last minute order before close and being so welcoming.

Excellent pub. Fantastic service from Jamie and Erin. Both had excellent craic. The most perfectly poured Pravha I’ve ever seen. 10/10 Would go again.

Came here for drinks but the food was amazing! We had the Tacos and the chicken strips which were delicious! Quick service and Jamie and Erin behind the bar were really friendly! Definitely recommend!

Friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Pleasant place to hang out. Good service.

Wonderful staff and nice atmosphere

A night to remember! This charming Clapham venue did not disappoint, it had everything you'd expect from a high-class establishment. From the electric atmosphere to the gorgeous guys at the bar. One of the highlights was Jamie - an absolute gem. Not only did she nail our drinks order every time, but she never spilled a drop. And the music? Pure genius! It was almost as if the DJ was reading my mind. Overall The Belle Vue was a very positive experience!

I had an incredible experience at Bellevue with my partner. Erin was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also delivered warm, personalized service. She made the best margaritas I’ve ever had! The food was just as impressive, and I highly recommend trying the Afuego burger.

Fantastic pub with amazing service! My server Jordan was really friendly and welcoming and the food is to die for!

Big up Jamie and Erin (Do we get a bonus point for this?)

A cosy pub with stunning burghers from Afuego, who used to be in Peckham

Great place, great vibes, even better staff! 100% recommend

Great place and even better staff! If you’re looking to go somewhere on Saturday in Clapham, deffo go here!

I recently visited The Belle Vue and loved the cosy vibe in the Fireside area, perfect for a relaxed drink. I've added it to my barguide.london site too!

Great pub, fantastic pub quiz and game night

Got the runs from a dodgy beer here. Plus it’s in Clapham

Some of the very best Sunday roast I've ever had. Great beer selection as well. Portion sizes are well worth the price. I promise you won't leave hungry and you'll definitely want to come back for more.

Roast dinner was absolutely delicious, 100% recommend! We will be back, thank you

Awful experience. I am a regular and today I felt treated rudely by the person on the floor. I dropped my bag at the table and went to the bar to order 3 beers. While I was bringing the first two beers to the table, the waiter told me that the table were all reserved. I told him that I had already ordered my beers and that there was not sign of reserved area to what he replied ‘I am telling you’. So rude! He really needs basic training on people skills. Anyway, left as I felt very unwelcomed

Really recommend the roast dinner, big portions and the veggie option was lovely. Food can take a little while to arrive but worth the wait! Friendly service and good atmosphere

Nice pub with good service, food, and drinks selection. Used to be a decent place to watch the football but they seem to be trying to cater to a different crowd now so last time I was there they let us know they wouldn't be putting the sound on for the big matches. The football was the main reason we were there, so we left to find somewhere else at half time. Not sure if this is a new general policy or just for a Sunday.

My First time I came to this bar, I had an hour to spare before I head of to the cinema. The staff welcoming and friendly. Then outside the window I saw The King! I managed to get a video of the moment.

Great place, great staff ect music was the worst in Clapham on the 13/01/23 after 8:30

Went here for a Sunday roast and it was one of the best I've had in ages! The jus with the roasts was delicious, and roasties were excellent and fluffy! I also love that they do a lamb roast, which seems to be rare to find in London!

I was served tonight by Tom who not only mixed a delicious espresso martini but who was really jolly and uplifting, just what an exhausted traveller needs. My husband and I felt ready for more! Great work Tom, thanks.

Bar staff very happy & welcoming smile & good banter to every customer from Tom Quealy

I was served by Tom Quealy tonight who not only mixed the most delicious espresso martini but was jolly in his manner and personality. Great bloke, great pub and great fun loving atmosphere.

Following a very bad brunch at an establishment that I will not name (began with ‘Meg’ and ended in ‘ans’), me and the good lady decided to frequent the Belle Vue as we knew that good service was guaranteed. Boy did it deliver. Immediately we were greeted with the warmest of smiles and a sincere happy new year from the barman. The chips then arrived with both mayo and ketchup included (without asking) - what a treat. A stunning remedy for a turmoil filled morning. Thanks Belle Vue!!!! You never miss.

One of the greatest places I ever been in London... food drinks and staff five star 🌟... keep up with good work...xxx

Had a fantastic evening ,staff were friendly and welcoming .Food was lovely and the music was great.

Amazing pub, so Christmassy and always a lovely vibe. Playlist always on point!

Fantastic pub, nice atmosphere, great staff. Make sure to stop by!

A great pub with great vibes and service

Service was terrible. Bartenders were extremely dismissive and proceeded to ask inappropriate questions regarding what I was wearing. Only good thing was the beer.

Great quiz on Monday night and even nicer staff! Will be back!

I ordered the pie but was disappointed, it was cold in the middle. Not very nice at all. What surprised me more was a guy taking a beer back to the bar and telling them it was flat. The barman was really rude, bordering on aggressive, poured in into another glass and handed it back to him. The poor guy just walked out. I was so shocked by the the member of staff - it was the rudest thing I've seen in a long time and completely unnecessary - I was stunned. If that's how they treat customers I'm never going back - plenty more friendly bars in Clapham.

Rude staff. Pint was flat and asked to change it to something else and the guy just poured it into another glass and said “it’s no flat”. So much attitude. Will not be going back here

They've recently changed the kitchen team doing the Sunday Roasts... and it is *excellent*. Genuinely one of the best I've had in London.

2 days ago I went and had a terrible experience with some serious rudeness from staff. In Canada this place would be out of business in day but in Queens England apparently tolerated. Hope things get better in future..

You will not find a higher concentration of rare ones, from the staff to the customers it’s halloween every day with the freaks in here

Great evening with The Whitlam!

Favourite bar in the area. Just wish the roast was slightly larger Staff friendly, good entertainment and great drink selection

The worsted food in my life.....!! I love Sunday roast but to be honest it's a real shame to serve some plate of food like that and call it "Sunday roast" a real shame for the British hospitality

Went for a family birthday today and I honestly cannot speak highly enough about the experience. My family used to live in the area and we decided to take a trip down memory lane and booked a couple of tables and we are so glad we did, the choice of beers were amazing, the food was top notch and what really made it was the staff. I have to shout out Ollie and Roland, absolute stars, they made us feel welcome and went above and beyond for us. (Managers if you are reading this they deserve a bonus, reward, medals, pay raise!) We will be coming back, please thank Ollie for taking such good care of my family, he really is a credit to the pub!

went for a roast last sunday - was really good for the price - the only thing that could be improved would be the potatoes - would also recommend getting the cauliflower cheese - was absolutely delicious they also have a great range of ciders & all the staff were v v friendly :)

Always a good time at the Belle Vue! Jamie must be the best bartender in Clapham - friendly, helpful and a good laugh too.

Probably my preferred pub on the high street - not too difficult to get a drink and plays good music on a Saturday night. Good amount of seating/standing room.

We had lunch today 8.10.23 , the roast beef and Lamb was tough, the roast potato creameted, the cheese burger was cold. Not sure if the chef pre cut both the beef and lamb and left under the pass for to long. A roast lunch is one of the simplest dishes to cook , I do think the chef needs some basic training on cooking roasts . The cutlery in the containers on the table was dirty. The water glasses and the water container had water marked obviously not polished . And it took 25 minutes from order to delivery of food to the table and the pub was not busy with food orders . The front of house staff need to be a little more friendly , maybe a little training on customer service might help.

Quiet Thursday lunchtime drink. The place was empty!

Nice place to have a beer and lots of TVs for the sport

What a shame. On the outside, it looked like a lovely pub and was really looking forward to having the Sunday roast. The food was poor, the lamb and beef were dried and tough to eat, and the jue was so watery, I only had two very small roast potatoes that were not cooked throughly and oily. Would not recommend the roast. It was barely luke warm. The service was so slow that we waited 40 mins. It's not a great experience for the price it's not cheap.

By far the best burger in clapham

Best pub in Clapham in winter/the rain

Delicious food and friendly staff.

Great quiz every monday and the bar staff are good people

Nice pub, but the toilet was full of flies. I took a video because I have never seen anything like it in the UK, literally about 100 flies buzzing around and on the walls

The ambiance is average during the week, the food is satisfactory, and the staff is friendly. However, I must mention that my two star rating stems from the fact they don't offer free phone charging during the week; instead, it costs £6 (more than half the minimum wage). Perhaps it's understandable on weekends, but in a bustling environment like London, it serves as a reminder that you're just another anonymous customer and really represents ideals of modern pubs.

Great meet up place for some drinks and nibbles. Night life on Saturday was really fun

Excellent service from Hannah! She was so welcoming and friendly from the get go! Very grateful to have been served by her today on this lovely afternoon! Would highly recommend!

Great service excellent Guinness

I've been there twice now, once for Sunday lunch and another time just for drinks. The place is really lovely with a great atmosphere. Very friendly and helpful staff. Food was lovely too! And they were very accommodating of my dog, which was really appreciated. Definitely recommend!

Great service, colourful pub,enjoyed our visit.

Great local pub - the best in the area. Always good for a drink after work or a roast on Sundays. Love the new burger kitchen too.

Fantastic local - by far the best in the area - lovely staff!

Over the top prices,1 pint of Estrella and 1 glass of pinot £18 really.....!! Total rip off, extortion in the highest degree

Nice pub, but music's to loud, to point you cannot have a conversation without shouting, or repeating " I cannot hear what you are saying, as the music is too loud".

Good pub quiz. Eyewateringly expensive drinks

This place is nice. We had Sunday lunch. Unfortunately the food was look warm. And the service is average. The music is good though.

Es lugar muy agradable, bien para tomar una copa en la noche o estudiar en las tardes.

Food and service were excellent. Reasonably priced and a fairly decent selection. The cauliflower bites and hash browns were amazing starters and the Sunday roast (chicken) was so flavourful. Would definitely go again.

Fine for a quick drink but limited beers and food isn't good

Beautiful burgers, good quality meat. Loved the Buffalo starters too. The two guys behind the bar and serving were very friendly and helpful. And they were happy to jump over my friend’s annoying dog that loved to be in the middle of the way.

Great Pub in the middle of Clapham, short walking distance from the Clapham park and Clapham Common station. Nice atmosphere but quite busy. Nice place to have a pint with snacks and watch football over weekends. Haven’t tried their roast yet, but it looked fabulous.

Great service, food and atmosphere. Cosy and not too loud. My food was late (or forgotten) I didn’t really care to be honest, but the staff did care and they made sure to go the extra mile to make up for that, it was very sweet. Great staff.

Lovely spot, great music and food, Wes and Jordan top barmen.

Good sport bar with tablefoodball.

What a great pub! Tim was unbelievable and everyone behind the bar outstanding

No longer the best roast in Clapham. Been a few times over the past few months. And must say the quality of the roasts has gone steeply downhill. What used to be an abundant plateful of veg (many varieties) whatever protein and lashings of gravy, is now a small portion of over cooked carrots/parsnips, a few very dry roasties and a single piece of undercooked broccoli, with and tiny drizzle of brown watery flavourless liquid. No point calling something a jus when it’s literally just a big of brown stock. Bring back Bisto! We went early in the day, so there was no excuse. Staff were great and friendly as usual, just a shame that the roast can no longer be called reliable.

Great pub to go to on a cold winters day.

This pub has become a new favourite, always a fun atmosphere and the service is great. Shoutout to Jordan behind the bar who always makes us feel welcome!

Recently popped in to a lovely pub - great vibe, very warm and welcoming. The bar staff are amazing. The food.. When visiting previously I used to enjoy the variety of gluten free options, especially in the pudding department. Sad to hear the sticky toffee pudding is no longer GF and there is no alternative dessert on the main menu either. I cant stress enough how friendly the staff are, every time I pop in be it quiet or busy they are always happy to chat and can't do enough for us :) Would love to see some more options for GF people to eat as I would always recommend the belle Vue to people as having some great options and now can't.

Slightly pricier drinks than some other pubs in the area, but it is well located, always busy and has a nice, traditional, yet modern, vibe with eclectic music played.

Food and drinks were great and Jordan was an excellent bartender Thanks

£20 for three pints. I guess that's ldn now.

The Vegetarian roast dinner was OK , definitely a nice roast but wouldn’t say the best I’ve had, however service was very nice and they give you big portions. You do have to order cauliflower cheese as a side dish.
