Eaten here a few times and the food is normally very good. However, the food is often served luke warm rather than hot, particularly the steak.

Lovely pub and staff. Food was alright I gave it 4 stars as Caesar salad dressing was like water had to get more dressing which came out a completely different consistency (as it should) and think lettuce maybe could be cut fresh for a salad as it's not very appealing to have a lot of browning going on within your diced lettuce. Otherwise a good place to go and fairly priced for the area.

Updated September 2024. I have reduced my rating down from 5 stars. The reason is that we often drink here as a family, but the price now of half a pint of lemonade (for our children) is a whopping £3.60, with a full pint costing £3.70. I quizzed the staff on this twice and they agree that the half pint price feels expensive but they still choose to charge it. So I begrudge paying over £7 for 2 x half pints of cheap lemonade for our two small kids and so will come less often!! The positives are its a nice quality pub and they sell Sheredrop, my fave beer. The food however has never been as good as it was before Youngs took it over.

Friendly quick service and great food and drinks. We come here a lot as my dad lives just around the corner and the welcome is always fantastic, I’ve never had a bad dish and the atmosphere is always great. Nice decor, lots of space, bright and airy dining room, book a table and get there early. Highly recommended.

We had the delightful experience of enjoying a Sunday roast with friends at the Canbury Arms pub in Kingston. Upon our arrival, we were warmly welcomed by the cheerful smiles and courteous nature of the staff. Nick kindly guided us to our table, presented us with menus, and took the time to explain the specials of the day while noting which items were unfortunately unavailable, including the chicken roast and a few others. However, we were quite pleased with the other offerings available. The food arrived in a timely manner, certainly no longer than 20 minutes, and I must say, it was wonderfully hot, with the roast potatoes being exceptionally crunchy. Nick was incredibly attentive, ensuring that both our party and the other tables around us were well looked after, displaying a delightful sense of humor as well. After our meal, Nick inquired if we would like tea, coffee, or desserts; only one member of our group opted for dessert – the Eton mess – which was once again delightful. Overall, we were thoroughly pleased with the service, the food, and the lovely atmosphere of the pub. We are genuinely grateful to have stumbled upon this charming establishment, and we are looking forward to our future visits. Thank you for a wonderful Sunday afternoon!

We really used to enjoy the Canbury arms but the last few visits have been disappointing, with our most recent visit concluding that it has to drop off our list for a while. We ordered garlic mushrooms, and were confused as the mushrooms were cold. They were actually so cold we assumed that they were intended to be served that way, so we didn’t say anything at the time. Only to our disappointment did our roast dinners come out with several elements on the plate being fridge cold. The gravy had curdled and was congealed in lumps over the veg and potatoes. We don’t normally complain/send things back but all of our plates had to be sent back for the gravy to be replaced and for reheating. They came back lukewarm - a slight improvement, rendering them just about edible, but our disappointment remained. Even the Yorkshire could be snapped in half like a stale biscuit. Honestly, it’s such a shame that this potentially lovely place is resorting to poorly reheating food that clearly has been sitting around far too long. Please get someone competent in your kitchen!! It’s such a waste, and over very silly and very avoidable mistakes :-(. Money down the drain…

Lovely local! We've been going there for many years. On this bank holiday Monday occasion we just felt the service staff, although they tried thrif best, was very poorly trained in basic skills. The plant burger was good, just very small and the red onions should be cut into finer rings than what we had. Good decision to have really great chips and not fries with it! Could not locate a beef burger on the menu? The mushroom gnocchi looked and tasted lovely, however had an enormous amount of oily residue in the bottom of the plate which caused slight concern and followed by slight nausea later in the evening. Fish & chips absolutely spot on! Still loving the Canbury Arms though!

Sadly no draught Guinness on this occasion! And only other grumble was that the kitchen needed to have changed the washing machine water, rinse aid and or softener, everything was stained and smeared, otherwise, staff wear polite and reasonably attentive on what had clearly been a busy Easter holiday weekend. If you want to escape always worth checking out the dinning room upstairs (if not booked) with its open fire ‘cosy’!

Organised an area in the bar for some drinks for my Husbands birthday and we had a great time. Only negatives were a member of staff behind the bar served myself and friend our drinks but when we asked him for a bowl to just put some crisps in he replied with "where would I get a bowl from?? I don't even work here!" Which we thought was extremely odd & abit rude but other than the young man behind the bar, other staff members were friendly! The atmosphere was very lively with the rugby on which added to our day & will definitely return in the future

The beef within the roast was fantastic; I would definitely get that again there. The roast as a whole was great too, including the texture of the potatoes (crispy coating, soft in the middle, and easy to cut through) albeit I'd have liked the potatoes to have been more seasoned. There was a great amount of gravy as well, albeit a little thicker would have been best. Great atmosphere & decor inside the pub, with friendly & helpful service.

Went for my daughter's birthday because she fancied a pub lunch roast. Her dad, herself and I chose the roast beef, which took forever to arrive. I'll give that it was prettily plated, but that's about as good as it gets. Let's break it down: beef - cooked ok for me, probably a bit rare for most people. And two very small slices. Potatoes and Yorkshire's had probably been sitting around for a while as they were rather hard. The Yorkshire was more disappointing because I was hoping for a crispy, fluffy delight and didn't get it. The carrot was nice - although a little over cooked. The cabbage (Savoy) was slightly more al dente than I like, but better than over cooked. Most disappointing, however, was that it all arrived tepid. Even the gravy, which has got to be the easiest thing to keep warm. The atmosphere was nice and the dining room was attractive. The staff were polite, but rather absent.

Firstly order a soda and fresh lime but received a Cider and fresh lime (a first). Once issue raised then received a lime cordial (not fresh lime) and soda which I drank because I’d already lost all faith in the competence of our waitress. Then my wife & I both ordered roasts at £21 & £20 what we received was shocking. Beef that was once pink but had clearly been reheated from a previous day, dry pork belly that was reheated, stale Yorkshire puddings nothing was good or fresh. Don’t offer an expensive roast in a Bank Holiday Monday if the food is not fresh. It was a complete rip off. Our waitress then proceeded to get our desert order wrong and charged us extra on the bill. We checked the bill as there had been so many issues and it was corrected. Overall not the experience that we had hoped from an over £70 meal. Not what we expected from a pub that is rated 4.5 stars on Google and could have potentially been our new local.

Six of us spent a very quiet (perhaps too quiet?) New Year's Eve in the Canbury, but the service, food and price were really impressive. Between us we had smoked salmon, venison, sea bass, steak, four bottles of wine, all served with a smile, and it came in at £50 a head, including service. All things considered, I'm not sure that we could have got a better package than this anywhere I know locally.

We thought the restaurant was empty due to it being Monday which was fine. Very dark place, plastic covers on the chairs. Friendly enough. ordered white wine which they did not have but offered us another for over £20. Awful Dino cheap wine tasting like water. Lady brought us main course before the starters then all came at once. which I had never experienced that. We were all confused!! Bill came as a shock. Pity. Last visit for us.

Eating is believing. Whatever food is ordered it is banging. Sometimes I just get cravings for a poor boys. Pro tip: order the seafood platter it's 10/10 and can feed a group of four, or two fat people. Definitely good value for money. Pro tip 2: alcohol here will turn a £40 bill here to a £70 bill. Be careful. Service is usually quick. AVOID Saturday and Sunday - the word has spread like butter with how good the food is. The queues are HUGE, you'll be waiting a while just to get a seat. The atmosphere is decent, if pretty standard and nothing too special. Do the platter. You won't be disappointed.

Very quiet at Friday lunchtime, we were the only ones until a loud vegan arrived, and unfortunately continued to yell about her veganism religion throughout the remainder of our meal. We had our usual at Persian restaurants: koobideh (minced lamb grilled on skewers) with their moreish garlic naan and the chicken (with bones) and rice. Our first visit but not our last.
