Since the big smoke have taken over we regularly go. Such a variety of good beer. Food is really good pub fayre, a bit dearer but isn't everywhere. Really fun music night in a packed pub.

Thank you to the Poyntz team for hosting a funeral wake for us. Everything was great, we had a lovely area to ourselves with all the food, teas etc waiting for us on arrival. Professional, thoughtful staff and great beer to raise a glass with. Thank you.

Love a Big Smoke pub, but this one just seems to lack the edge of The Antelope, Albion and Flintgate. Food we had wasn't quite to the the standards expected and experienced at their other locations. Maybe taking a bit of time to settle down and will try again in the hope it delivers like we would expect. Still worth a visit, drink selection is great and layout nice.

Really sweet and lively place — I hadn’t been to this pub before the Big Smoke acquired it, but now it seems to have transformed into such a great spot! The food is always good, the staff are super friendly, it’s busy pretty much every night of the week, and it has a lovely beer garden. The Sunday roast was one of the best one I’ve had in a while, and their small plates are also great and worth trying.

Had some lovely drinks in the pub A few nights ago and we had a great time. It was their first Friday after the refurb and me and my dad had a few drinks enjoying the atmosphere. The staff and management were amazing the food smelt and looked delicious and the drinks were great! Very much looking forward to some more visits to the Poyntz to try their food and experience the entertainment. Good luck and thank you to all the team.

Edit: went back in yesterday for a coke, killing time whilst child at a club, and the place for late afternoon Monday was buzzing. Used to be flat on a Monday at that time in the past so adjusting review! Just reopend and like everyone in the area super excited. We love The Big Smoke pub in Surbiton. Went on Friday night and sat outside with a drink and it was lovely. Staff were friendly etc. We were looking forward to our late lunch booking the following day but ended up leaving before we ate. It was a combination of red flags, no table reserved for us, trying to seat us at a clearly far too small table for four people to eat (you'd barely fit two plates), and after a nice family who had just finished overheard the issues offering us their table no one cleaning the table or bringing menus or telling us where to get menus and order. I felt it was a sign of a stressful meal ahead.

Brilliant Sunday Roast….Molesey’s best kept secret! These roasts are all delicious (lamb, pork, beef). Huge portions, succulent veg and loads of fantastic quality meat. Totally delicious! The chef even personally came to our table to talk through our allergies and tailored a meal to accommodate gluten and dairy intolerances. Highly recommended!

Refused me to use the loo. I thought it’s going to be a public house. And the place was empty! And I said I’m a cab driver, he said especially not cab drivers. Such a miserable man. I hope you get good as he gives. I’m nearly reporting this because his attitude is likely to extend to customers to make them feel just as unwelcome. You have been warned!

Excellent service and a good range of draft beers. Top points go to the table service (Covid compulsory) this evening. They ran out of Beavertown Neck Oil on our third round so when the barman brought everyone’s drinks over, he brought me a flight of three similar draft beers to try and decide if I wanted one of those instead. Very friendly and welcoming. 10/10

I would like to start this review by showering Leon and Mikey with praise. What a fantastic duo you have in your establishment. Whatever you are paying them, make it double. They made us feel so important from start to finish and their knowledge (particularly Mikey) on the products you provide is first class.I would also like to say that the outdoor area with the fairy lights is a great touch and really gave a lovely vibe to our evening. I hope to see further improvements to this pub as it's in a fantastic location with great potential.

We have been in the pub mamy times but never to eat so thought it would be nice to try out their Sunday lunch menu. The place was fairly busy as they were planning to show the England v Ireland rugby so we had lunch at 1.30pmThe service was good and the menu was plentiful. We decided to share the olives and beetroot humuus with soda bread. It was a good choice as it was superb but more than enough for two people. The menu offers chicken, beef or pork together with fish and vegan options. I had the roast pork and my partner had the beef. Both meals were substantial and delicious. There is an extensive wine list ranging from around £18 to £80 so catering for all palates. Unfortunately we were too full to try the desserts but will definitely return soon and hopefully leave some room to sample them.

Excellent freshly cooked food, with plentiful portions! We have eaten at the Poyntz a few years ago and had poor food and was put off. Since then the pub has changed hands. We’ve been in for drinks on a number of occasions and the bar staff are always so friendly! On a recommendation we decided to go for food. I’m so glad we did. I had a pie ( I asked for extra gravy) and my husband had the chicken burger. Wow! I enjoyed it immensely, as did husband. I would go so far to say it is the best pub food in molesey! Will definitely go back!

We arrived late on Saturday afternoon and asked if they were still serving food, to our delight they said yes. It was fairly quite, and we were the only people in the dinning area. The person who served us was really friendly and gave us menus and took our drinks order. Came back with the drinks and we ordered. I had the wild boar sausage and mash, and I have to say it was absolutely delicious, the red wine sauce was really tasty and I could have eaten it again, in fact all the food was great, we a couple of people had burgers and also the fish. We had a great afternoon and I can't wait to return, my son has just moved into the area, so looks like we will be eating here quite a lot. I hope it's the same tasty food on my next visit. Highly recommended

Excellent food. My husband had Christmas turkey - and Christmas pudding for dessert. Our friend and I had roast beef with huge Yorkshire puds! All very well cooked. Plentiful and varied vegetables, delicious gravy. Apple crumble fresh and generously portioned. Staff efficient and helpful though service delayed before dessert.When it came to doing the tip, the machine wouldn’t take it and were forced to pay with cash - then were given the wrong change! One point management might wish to improve - is heating. On entering restaurant it was cool for a cold Sunday winter lunchtime. A restaurant needs to be warm and welcoming. We had to ask for the back door to be closed (needs to be on an automatic closure) as we sat in a cold draught most of our lunch time. Also the door through which waiters bring food from kitchen into restaurant needs to be a two-way swing door as is in restaurants. It was held permanently open so the cold lobby air kept funnelling into the restaurant.We shall certainly return. It’s a great asset to Walton Road

We visited The Poyntz Arms for an evening meal on 6 November and again the following Sunday for Sunday Lunch. One word comes to mind, superb.The food is prepared in their own kitchen (unlike so many chain pubs,) and is of the highest quality, with an interesting menu, prepared from high quality suppliers.We would highly recommend this establishment for fine food at a reasonable price, an excellent welcome, superb service, and an all round stunning experience.

I’ve just visited this pub today with my family and some friends for Sunday lunch and it was fabulous. From the look of the outside I didn’t think it would be much but when we got inside it had a lovely gastropub feel (without trying too hard), great relaxed atmosphere, very helpful and friendly staff and the food went above and beyond our expectations. We all had roasts which were really high quality - perfectly cooked meat, fresh selection of veg, homemade Yorkshire puddings, delicious gravy. I had roast pork and they had cooked the crackling perfectly which I think is rare in restaurants. My wife said the beef was delicious. They also had a good selection of board games so the kids were entertained which meant we had a really chilled afternoon. I’m looking forward to going back on another day to try the rest of their menu!

We have visited the Poyntz quite a few times since it was refurbished and it is far better atmosphere than it was previously. Really friendly staff make it a pleasant experience but we had never eaten here until yesterday. We booked a table to watch the rugby and we were pleasantly surprised with how good the food actually is. I had a full English and my wife had the avocado on toast, both superb and probably the best full English I have had. We've booked a table for next Saturday to watch England v France and looking forward to my breakfast already. The rugby was shown on 3 screens, one of those projected onto a huge screen so watching the match was great. Keep up the good work and see you on Saturday

Haven’t been here since the makeover. Heard mixed things. However, we thought we’d give it the ‘Sunday roast’ test. Passed with flying colours. Quality good. Quantity good and very generous. Lovely beef. Not chewy. Half a chicken for the other half. Veg/ potato’s/ Yorkshire all very nice. Staff attentive but not nuisance levels. Lovely decor. Will be going again and will recommend to friends.

I have to say: a big positive surprise! I came to local pub on Wednesday evening by accident. It was empty, but very friendly waiter offered me a drink and recommended food. Very sceptical, as been in this business for decade, I started to look at their menu. I ordered a simple beef burger. In an empty pub I had to wait for a while- good sign. And when it came it was not disappointing at all. Well done Poyntz Arms! Delicious and highly recommended!
