A lovely cosy pub with good of atmosphere. We usually visit midweek on ribs night or steak night & food has always been great. It's become our favourite pub in Epsom but it gets busy so book a table! Parking isn't a big deal if you don't mind a short walk from the Town Hall car park.

Really good mothers day menu and great value for money, service was very friendly especially the Hungarian lady not sure what her name was. Big portion sizes, the meats in the roasts where yummy and the vegetarian Wellington was amazing but the sides that came with were all a bit cold or luke warm which was a bit disappointing.

Wow, what a find! Great beer selection, fantastic food (we had to take some home the portions are so big!) Had a great lunch here, would have loved to stay all day! Will defo be back, worth mentioning you will need to park elsewhere in Epsom as there is no parking on site but well worth the 5 minute walk from the town hall car park!

This was my second visit here since it has been refurbished and under new ownership. Great atmosphere, very friendly and knowledgeable staff. We only had drinks, but beer selection is brilliant, with draught craft beers and real ales mainly from Big Smoke Brewing, but also others on draught, e.g. Flensburger!

Took the 406 / 418 from Surbiton to check out one of the newer Big Smoke pubs. The classic winning formula, reclaiming old local pubs and transforming them with a consistent aesthetic but somehow retaining the integrity of the pub before it. Originally a beer house, The Rising Sun first became a pub around 1870. It's the founding place and meeting point to this day for the Epsom Cycling Club since 1891. And in 1963, pre-CAMRA, the "Society for Preservation of Beer from the Wood" was set up here, although now remains more of a social club. It's later years it was referred to as "The Japanese Embassy" too, due to the Japanese Flag that used to hang outside of it - whether anyone still calls it that, given the absence of a flag, I don't know. Back to the present day pub though! Cosy, lots of nooks and tables. Fire was roaring. Families and couples throughout. Hesitant to pap unsuspecting punters for this, so just pointed the empty spaces to give a feel. The usual Big Smoke suspects on offer, but while a Harvey's Best Bitter and Big Smoke Underworld on cask were extremely tempting. Opted for old faithful Deya Steady Rolling Man, repeat order x5 plz. The food game is top tier pub grub. Baby Back BBQ ribs have kept me full for a few days since, and the sides and veggie options are plentiful. The garden needed a bit of love when I went the first time around, it has since been vastly improved. The canopy awnings you see at the other pubs will be brought in here, and outside heaters on the way too. The pub also has an upstairs area, reserved for the rugby on the weekends, which was nice to be able to create that space for those not looking to be surrounded by adults screaming at an egg. Service was warm and inviting as always. Something about a Big Smoke pub (both staff and venue) making you feel like it's your local, even if you've travelled to get there. Find your nearest one, or take a stroll down Epsom Downs and pop in for a pint.

I haven't been to this pub in Epsom before and our Christmas meal was taking place there . I volunteer in Cancer Research and the charity treat volunteers to a lovely Christmas meal out. The place was perfect for a largish group , food was really good. This pub is a cozy local, popular with local residents because, when I arrived a little early, I perched on one of the seats in the area as the rest of the pub was full. I really liked it and another volunteer told me that they have a lovely beer garden outside but it is December and rainy so I'll take their word for it. I really liked the atmosphere and friendly welcoming from the staff when they saw me sitting on my own. We had a very enjoyable evening with food, friends and a funny game of drawing a guided Christmas scene on a paper plate on our heads. Liked the atmosphere. Thank you CRUK. Merry Christmas 🤶 Pricing is only on there because I bought a drink . I can't comment on the pubs usual menu as ours was a set menu and a treat but a nice venue for a works do with friendly staff and a pleasant place to be

I had recently started to go to this pub with friends just for drinks, but one evening we decided to get food too. I chose the Big Smoke Burger, which came with pulled pork, smoked cheddar, pickles, and fries on the side. The aged beef was moist, flavoursome, and not overcooked or dry, and along with the tasty marinated brisket, made a decent meaty combination. The cheese and pickles added more depth and flavour to complete the burger. The fries were crispy and had a nice coating around them. So overall, a good experience...but why the 4 stars then? Well, for £16.45 I just don't believe I was getting my money's worth...for what I paid there should have been more fries, instead of limiting them to that small cup they came in. Also, there should have been another side option included too...maybe a choice of coleslaw, onion rings, small corn on the cob, ecc. As you can see, the dish looks fairly small, and the plate is rather empty from the picture, so that is my only negative. The service is always friendly, relaxed, and professional...so if you're looking for decent grub and a warm atmosphere, then definitely check this place out! Dogs are also welcome. :)

I couldn’t fault our visit here last night. The pub is cosy and had a nice friendly, busy feel. We were made to feel very welcome from the minute we arrived and I thought the two staff we met were both helpful and kind. We felt well looked after. I really enjoyed the classic burger - beautifully cooked and served with some very tasty fries - and my son and daughter enjoyed their ribs and halloumi burger. The ribs had a fabulous glaze and the meat just fell off the bone! I think the only thing I’d add would be to automatically serve a finger bowl of water with those ribs - but that’s very fussy and maybe because I watched my son eating them whilst wearing a white shirt 😁 Would highly recommend and will definitely be wanting to visit again.

If I can give you any advice, it would be to NEVER EVER set foot into this ill managed, disgraceful pub.I booked this pub for my 21st birthday party and paid a hefty deposit. I was promised an email of confirmation, and 3 months later (despite many many phone calls) I did not receive one. When I finally received a confirmation email, I replied to the email and surprise surprise I didn’t get anything back. So 2 weeks before my party, my mum goes to the pub to speak to deebay and Oliver, to find the pub closed. Oliver would not come down to speak to my mum, even though they had a large sum of her money. Obviously we don’t want a birthday party in a pub which isn’t going to be open, so after some time Oliver gave a refund.... but finding a new venue for my 21st birthday party 2 weeks before the date is no mean feat.These people are a disgrace to the pub industry and you should NOT give your hard earned money to these people!!! I would give a 0 rating if I could!!!Yours sincerely, A very unhappy birthday girl

I would strongly advise that no one ever books this pub for a party or function due to the catastrophic let down that occurred todayI paid a substantial deposit for my daughters 21st birthday and was promised many things by Oliver which was then overuled by Deebay ? Part owner I then turn up today to check everything is ok the pub is closed Oliver refuses to come downstairs and talk to me for over an hourA lady arrived and asks if she can help stating she is the co owners ex wife and the pub has been closed by the licence people?? She states her ex husband owns 50% of the pub and gave it to Deebay to be repaid and now she has been locked out of the office by Oliver and Deebay she thinks the pub might open but not sure and she thinks my daughters party can still go ahead but not sure ???? I have ten days to organise a venue now for over 110 people This pub, it’s management and owners are a disgrace to the pub industry and should not be allowed to trade this would stop other people being disappointed by their false promisesI do sincerely hope that my deposit does actually get refunded to my credit card as promised by Oliver !!!!!!!

I came here with my sisters for dinner on a Sunday evening. The pub dining room was empty - we were joined by only 1 other table - so the atmosphere was poor. There were a lot of dishes not available on the main menu and also on the desert menu - of 4 deserts they only had 2! Both me and my sister ordered the salmon for main. It was priced at £15 so I was expecting something really good as that’s pretty pricey for a pub dinner. It was unfortunately incredibly disappointing. The salmon filet was tiny and poorly cooked (the skin wasn’t crispy like it should be). It was served with 2 tiny florets of broccoli and I actually counted the 6 tiny carrot buttons and 4 slivers of asparagus! The only good thing was the mash. It was a shock when the bill came and I grudgingly had to hand over £45 for 3 meals (my other sister had sausage and mash which she said was ok) and 3 soft drinks. We left within an hour and went to Bill’s for desert and a hot drink!

The garden was looking fabulous and we were very lucky that it was such a sunny calm evening so everyone could enjoy it out there. We know this pub well as it is one of our locals and it really is a hidden gem...lots of character, some brilliant guest ales and great food...cosy in the winter and lovely in the summer.

We had travelled a fair distance to Epsom General Hospital to see our first grandchild born in the Bradbury wing. We took a little stroll through the park when we saw this lovely little quiet pub. There weren't many people there but just inside the pub were what I politely call football hooligans I say that because they were shouting EEAGLLES You cannot ban a chelsea fan YIDDOs etc etc. No one came to serve us they to busy "looking after" a guy about my age who was saying look I have told you already there is 5 grand in the account and no your WEE FEE is not working and I have already spent my emergency tenner where's the nice canadian - he was just met with abuse about being pissed. Anyway he calmly said can I have some water then before I leave and I watched nervously pour a glass and the whole lot came down. The lager louts then turned on him but he calmly set off collecting his heavy bags of shopping. The abuse he got was a sign of our times kiddy fiddler paedo turd burglar sausage pirate etc etc but he just walked away. My dear wife said Imagine if we were in San Diego. Well no-one came to serve us as they were now too busy sweeping up glass to make matters I suddenly realised I had left my wallet in the car something I have never done before. So we left and we couldn't even get a glass of water and then just set off on our drive back to Plymouth. It was not such a long journey as usual as we were so happy with seeing our dear little girl. Oh by the way I am a retired naval commander as we drove we joked about our short visit to the land of the rising sun but we argued a little about the quiet man with his shopping - it was obvious he was in the services but we couldn't agree which branch. I thought he would be a captain but she who must be obeyed said major - would we go back no - but our family around the area who are also serving her majesty will be popping in now !

I hadn't been to the Rising Sun but as a relative newbie to the area, it was refreshing to find good food that wasn’t bland but overpriced (given the area) along with service that felt genuinely friendly without being over attentive. Although they'd run out of the key vegetarian meals (for my partner), they rustled up a new version of the veggie pie that was tasty and substantial while my beefburger was delicious. It wasn’t busy for a Saturday night (which I quite liked) even though there was a good band on. But if that's not unusual then I’m sure it's going to get busier under the excellent new management and I look forward to sitting out in the big garden when the weather warms up.

Dinner for four. Good food but staff were not attentive. A starter was forgotten, drinks were slow to arrive despite only one other table occupied. A private party upstairs may have distracted them. 3 separate serving staff helped us and lacked knowledge of our order, giving one tomatoes when asked specifically for none. Drinks were expensive but the food was generally well cooked, but triple cooked chips were underdone. Silent pool gin at nearly £7 plus tonic and not served correctly with orange. It sounds petty but that’s how that gin should be served. When a barrel was being changed and a problem occurred we were not offered an alternative, but had to ask for one. Had to ask for a wine menu despite saying I’d like wine. Had to remind them to bring water for the table and they did not initially have a dessert menu to offer.

Inside, there is plenty of space (and a garden for when the sun shines) for those eating and those looking for a good pint and has a warm, relaxed atmosphere. With a range of options from local beers to multiple varieties of gin, we were spoilt for choice. The staff were friendly and welcoming, particularly Rory who was a true gentleman. We will definitely be back.

We have recently found the Rising Sun traditional pub hidden in the residential area. Friends of mine and myself come here to have very decent selection of beers which includes German and Belgium beers. And 5 best real ales from the country always keep on rotating.

Cheeky little hidden gem this one! I am so happy to have finally found a ACTUAL pub in Epsom. Good range of well kept beer and a great atmosphere. Type of place where a man and his dog will sit and chat to a family of 5, really lovely, I may return tomorrow for this epic Sunday roast i read about!

The Chef and The owner are Nepalese and I've been told the curry nights were created for them to have some fun and cook the amazing curries. Well I'm very pleased to report they have surpassed my expectations!!, A delicious Curry and passed the "Boss Test" (The wife :) The service also deserves a mention - really good, really friendly and efficient. I recommend you visit and try a Curry that is different "Nepalese" Curry - I highly recommend. Sunday Lunch i've been told is a must too, Save the cooking at home, in a friendly atmosphere. Great Pub all round. Check it out for your self.

We’d not been in the RS for almost a year but decided to pop in on the walk home from Epsom with the kids for a spot of tea on Friday night. Really enjoyable, made to feel very welcome and the food was really very nice indeed. More honest enthusiasm than slick professionalism, but for me that’ll do the job every time. We’ll certainly be going back a lot sooner next time.

Wow, Proper home cooked, fresh quality ingredients, lean perfect beef, great veg, cauliflower cheese tasted perfect and the best gravy I have had (red wine in gravy so deep and delicious flavour). Excellent chef cooking fresh ingredients. Everyone there was raving about the food. My only reservation is that the place may get too busy because this is 5 star and is so very much better than many ranking higher. No frozen veg here. Good size portions and worth every penny. I am know for my excellent cooking and this was as good or even better than I do. No more rosst beef at home when this is so very very good.

We had our daughters 6th birthday party in the room upstairs. Very cosy even with 30 kids.. most parents waited downstairs in the bar while the kids had a disco. Rory and the guys looked after us amazingly and it all went great. Would recommend!

Had some snacks, Home made chips and garlic and bread! bread was cold and chips were too oily and not crispy enough, lots of small sizes -despite having paid extra for them being home made...

I was fortunate to be in The Rising Sun recently on a Tuesday evening and was tempted to try their special offer as it was Curry Night. I had their Nepalese Pokharali pork curry with dahl and traditional breads. I must say it was excellent and was the tastiest curry that I have experienced in many a year anywhere. Together with their great service and superb real ales it was an evening to remember. I'll be back!!

Visited on a casual Sunday afternoon with my partner and her mum, had a delicious Sunday roast. Yorkshires were particularly light and fluffy! Attentive, friendly and speedy bar staff, and a really good selection of craft beers and ales. BBQ was starting up in the garden as we were eating in a lovely sunny garden. Highly recommend if you are shopping in Epsom or visiting the cinema and need a refreshment stop!

Visited the pub on Tuesday, 29th August after a long time for few beers. It happens to be the curry night. The aroma of foods made us to order some amazing Nepalese curry.

I needed a venue for a surprise baby shower for my wife and the Rising Sun was perfect. As this was our 3rd baby I invited family, friends and kids on a very hot sunny end of June Sunday. The function room would have been good but because it was hot, we were moved to the Atrium at the entrance of the garden which made it perfect for family, friends and kids. The garden is closed off, safe and great place for the kids to play while everyone drank, eat and celebrated the up coming birth of our baby girl with great staff on hand. Definitely a pub we'll use again.

Came here for a couple of beers after work. I was served by a member of barstaff called Jo. The customer service i received was outstanding and got served straight away. She was communicating well with all the customers that got served. We all have a good laugh and that makes me want to come back and have a pint or two because i know i will have a good evening after work. Overall im extremely happy with the service I receive especially from Jo and very soon i will come again. Shame im going on holiday in a week time but after my holiday i look forward to coming back for a beer or two. Thank you very much.

First time at The Rising Sun in Epsom, we received a very friendly welcome from bar and waiting staff. The beer was excellent and the food even better. Will definitely be returning.

What a shame. Lovely pub always pleased on previous visits Came in on one of the hottest Sundays of the year to be told only food being served is roasts. Contrary to the website which boasts ‘fresh bread deliveries everyday’ and ‘Our homemade chunky chips are quite legendary’ but obviously not on a Sunday!! Why employ chefs who can only cook roasts and can’t make a sandwich or a salad??? Went to barley mow who had full menu on offer
