The Robin Hood in Sutton

Haven't been to the Robin for a while but really glad we stopped off for a quick lunch the other day. My partner had the tomato and basil soup, which she loved (I had a taste and loved it too). I had the steak sandwich and chips, which I also really enjoyed. The steak was very tender and cooked exactly how I asked. Also, when we left, I left a package on the table (a Xmas present!!) and we didn't realise until a few hours later. Someone kindly handed it in when they sat at the same table and I picked it up earlier today. Phew! Service was also top notch and we found out that there's more to do, like open mike nights, etc, than before, so will be heading there more and more from now on. Highly recommend the Robin.

La comida era horrible la mayoría estaba quemada las patatas mecen verduras duras no cocinadas correctamente Servicio horrible Lo único bueno era el pudín que era una rebanada de pastel que obviamente fue precomprado

Went in briefly on the way to somewhere else. Friendly service. Quite large inside. Clean and tidy.

Had a great day after the fa cup game against Birmingham, great atmosphere and the landlord and landlady were brilliant . Definitely coming here again 👍😄

Best pub in Sutton by a country mile. Clare and Steve are very good landlords. They always engage with their customers, and always make you feel very welcome. There's always a great atmosphere and something going on, whether it's a live band, karaoke, quiz nights. It's got a real community feel. I love this place.

Great family run pub! Great beer and food, and so welcoming. Shows all the football which is a massive bonus. Very clean. Dart boards are great. Prices are decent too. Would recommend to everyone.

I met up here with a few friends for drinks and dinner. The food was good, service great. Faith the barmaid pours a great Guinness. I also found out that they show live sports and that they get a good crowd in. I look forward to coming back again.

Me reuní aquí con unos amigos para tomar algo y cenar. La comida era buena, el servicio genial. También descubrí que muestran deportes en vivo y que tienen una buena multitud. Espero volver de nuevo.

Popped in earlier today and ended up making an afternoon of it! The atmosphere was very relaxed at first then gradually as more people came in the vibe changed and becoming more sociably lively! We had several drinks and food and left much later after having a great time. Hosts Steve and Claire are friendly making you feel very welcome and certainly know how to run a pub👏🏻

Great pub for away fans locals are friendly really nice pub #oafc

Fine place to meet friends and have a beer or two.

Went in yesterday with my mum for lunch - food was fresh and tasty. The pub is clean and has a great atmosphere about it. I’m looking forward to heading over on a Sunday for a roast dinner!

Such a good pub, the landlords are amazing and creating such a community hub! Great prices for pints, fabulous food highly recommend

Staff really friendly, food is fantastic and would definitely recommend 😋

Bloody awful steak meal, tough as old boots, onion rings were soggy, peas obviously out of a tin and chips were dreadful. Steak tasted like it was out of a dirty pan. They're lucky I ain't reporting them, not food poisoned however on a positive note

Honestamente puedo decir que este fue el peor asado de domingo que he tenido! Tardó casi una hora en llegar! La carne de vacuno era como si el cuero vegetal estuviera frío y bajo el personal cocido (solo uno) no se molestó cuando le dije lo que estaba mal con la comida! ¡¡No volveré a ir allí!!! ’

Almuerzo del domingo qué broma. Ningún cerdo y ternera era como el cuero de bota, las verduras estaban mal cocidas o demasiado cocidas. El personal se dio cuenta de nuestra queja, pero simplemente se fue. No volverá

I haven't been to The Robin Hood in years. The only way I could find to get into the pub in my electric wheelchair was the front door but, once inside there was plenty of room to zip about. Service was good. The pub was in the middle of a quiz, which sounded fun. Disabled toilet is located at the rear of the pub and big enough to accommodate an electric wheelchair. I needed an assist to open the toilet door and the bar staff (1 person) didn't keep me waiting too long. Would I go back, yes I would

Been to this pub a few times over the years. Ordered food for the first time - generous portions! Friendly staff too!

Tilly was very quick and attentive, wonderful atmosphere

Had an amazing time at the Robin Hood !! Tilly was very quick

Tilly was a kind server , food and drink were lovely

Good to have a vibrant local pub

Matilda was a wonderful server and was lovely and made us feel so welcome.

Lovely pub ,great food ,great range of drinks,the best staff in the area ,and lovely locals to chat with .

Good place to relax and have a pint or two

Just don't. Lazy management who blamed us for ordering food they haven't got then assumed we didn't want it because they got 2 checks for the same table. No grasp that if 4 people order food we want to eat together. Their concern was we got food 30 minutes apart. If we called in for a fee beers I would say it's a good pub.. if you want to eat go into town and find somewhere else..

Claire and Steve offer a community pub that allows everyone to feel happy safe and enjoy a great social time. As a local charity we have enjoyed multiple work socials at the Robin Hood in a social and relaxed environment. Claire and Steve and their team make everyone feel welcome! Love this pub in Sutton! Feels like home!

We came here for a fathers day meal, the pork roast was as tough as an old boot, so bad the dog didn't even want to eat it! She's used to quality meat and this was certainly not up to par. The crackling didn't crackle and was like a rubber tyre, not good at all. We weren't even offered a refund for the roast. However the staff and atmosphere was lovely. Such a shame about the dreadful food though.

Really enjoyed a lovely meal in their cosy garden, which is perfect for families and pets. I've added it to my barguide.london site too!

Very impressed with the refurb & new menu. Had lunch & drinks today with my husband and friend. Absolutely delicious 😋 food, good size portions, good selection of draught lagers/beers etc. Very clean & comfortable seating inside & out. Added bonus, it's a dog friendly pub with lots of doggy treats & fresh water. Definitely will visit again with our 4 legged family member 🐕 😀

Absolutely love this place. Sophie in particular is absolutely wonderful!!

Only popped in for a pint, seemed a pleasant local pub.

Amazing food friendly staff especially Sophie 10/10

We had a bit of a wait, but the food was very good and the Sunday roast great value for money.

Friendly staff and experienced landlord. The people there are really into their music, I had a great night last night🎶

Great pub, friendly staff. Family atmosphere, dog friendly and live music

Great pub, nice people, would highly recommend!

Lovely couple run the pub. We pop in occasionally at lunch time. Went in tonight for a meal husband had pie mash n peas he throughly enjoyed. I had curry lovely. Portions are just right for us. Certainly recommend you give it a try. Cocktails + choice of gins.

Saturday 6th of August 2024, wish I took a picture of the food was appalling for the price. I don't usually leave reviews but my lord I have to for this..... Where do I start, we ordered at 12:30pm, food didn't arrive until 2pm.... The pub was half full... I ordered the stilton and garlic mushrooms burger... the mushrooms were overcooked oh wait no garlic, there was no stilton in the burger... Patty was missing for starters and secondly...... OMG I would have got a better burger in McDonald's or even so the spoons at half the price haha I don't know who the chef is but they don't know how to cook.... Quality of the meat is awful...Chips were raw in the middle (simplest task) speechless I didn't have the energy to complain. The People I was with ordered the peri peri wrap which supposedly came with yoghurt missed out the yogurt and chicken was flavoured more like a Indian style of spices than Portuguese peri peri... Absolute disaster only photo I took was my pint which they didn't get wrong loool The lady I'd have to admit was very helpful, but the food experience was a complete let down!

I was embarrassed taking my fiends to our 'local' for lunch. It was empty when we arrived at 12 noon but for us four pensioners, and when I enquired of barmaid about lunch she told me that there was a reduced menu due to the imminent football match - which we accepted. The barmaid would not come to the table to take our order or bring the drinks - so much for helpful. We all ordered scampi and chips with peas. What a disappointment - there were approx 8/9 scampi bites ( seen these in Iceland at rock bottom price) and found a piece of questionable fish in half of them, the rest was fried breadcrumbs. The peas had not been cooked ( not al dente ) - proven by being cold and hard, the dish was finished off with teaspoon of tartare sauce in side dish. My family has been in the hospitality industry for over 45 years and understand how difficult it can be but having paid £10.95 each (plus drinks) it beggars belief how eating out with friends in this pub could ever be described as a enjoyable experience.

Went here tonight for a friend's birthday and it was really nice. Loved singing along to the karaoke

I came down to see my son and it seems he’s doing very well now, I will have to call down again and collect some of the stuff I NEED to collect. Keep it up

Best pub in London. Steve and Claire are the best landlords and this is my favourite boozer in the world. Food is also excellent. Thumbs up.

Good pub, TV screens, dart boards, and range of beers.

These people were so lovely! We unwittingly came to a pre-match meeting of the London Reds before a Sutton-Wrexham match. (Sutton lost.) But they were welcoming and kind. Fantastic steak and ale pie. Good selection of ales.

This being literally 5 minutes from us and recently being refurbished we really hoped it would be good. Firstly the decor and atmosphere were good the staff we're actually very friendly and the pub was generally clean. Here's the bad part we booked for Sunday roast my wife and 2 of our children hoping that the food would be nice. I'm afraid it wasn't the meat with the roast was very tuff like chewing a leather boot the potatoes were absolutely cremated and the veg was bland and had no taste whatsoever. We ordered a pizza for our youngest which was literally a tortilla wrap with sauce and cheese on i was shocked. I've eaten in pretty much every pub in and around sutton and this is by far the worst which was a real shame for us as like I said is 5 minutes away and we could have had a nice regular place to eat on Sundays. Again a real shame as if the food was good here, the place I think would be absolutely packed on Sundays as the pub itself is really nice. Great place for drinks just don't bother with the food.

Most gastropubs don’t come close to the level of food served here. Tacos were incredible and the southern fried chicken is leagues ahead of anything I’ve had for some time. Not often I’m genuinely taken aback so very well done to the Robin Hood!

Been here a few times for both drinks, food and NYE. Drinks - fine selection - always a nice white chilled pinot on the go and never feel stung by high prices 👍 NYE - A great night! Danced for about 5 hours straight. The locals/regulars are all super friendly and chatty when you walk in and some like a good boogie which is a bonus 🕺 Staff - staff are great. Friendly and chatty people. You never have to wait long to be served even when busy. It's a real well run pub. The chef is a genius. Food - A must try. Freshly prepared food by a brilliant chef - huge portions (for me, anyway but I am very small!) - absolutely beautiful, mouth-watering food - even my very particular daughter agreed! Landlords - I've been recently lucky enough to get to know Steve and Claire a little better since they became landlords. They are good, honest, no nonsense, wonderful people. They really care about their community and bringing people together and make sure people enjoy themselves and forget about life's challenges and stresses when they walk through their doors. You're always greeted well and it's one of few pubs I can comfortably walk in, as a woman on my own, and feel safe and confident in, which is so important these days. All in all, there is no better, friendlier pub in Sutton with reasonably priced food and drink. I couldn't recommend it more highly. I really need to go and have brunch there - am looking forward to that!

Not tried the food but they have a good selection of draught and nice looking pub with cozy outdoor area

Came here with friends on 13th Jan to see a live band which were excellent and so glad I did, the pub however was a different story - when we first walked up the outside was covered in discarded cigarette butts and left over takeaway rubbish, half the planters were dead and ashtrays overflowing, we met our group they told us there was only one bar maid on all night -a few red flags already! Then the post mix ran out so could only buy bottles with as mixers, though looking at my spend the next morning I’m sure we were still only being charged for post mix (so 5* on that one) then the options began to dwindle on the options as full fat coke ran out, not good for us as a group of persnickety gits like us who are fussy about our mixer. We were contemplating leaving after the first half of the set but decided to stick it and honestly glad we did, firstly the band, Sorted for cheese and Fizz, was excellent, 90s Britpop & indie music (my era) and the real reason we went in the first place, and the only reason I’m giving this a 3* was the staff, now I was a pub manager for 20 years so this comment comes from experience, the barmaid was alone and working her backside off to do her job, and did a superb effort, yes we had to wait but not her fault and she faced everyone with a smile and every challenge head on like an expert, then there’s the chef who as soon as she finished in the kitchen came straight to bar and helped and again did an excellent job, i later found out she had started work at 7am and was still punching it at midnight (no doubt she’s back there Sunday morning to prep Roasts) and I don’t think it fair to not mention who I believe was the cleaner who sat there polishing and wrapping cutlery and collecting glasses (not her job) in order to lend a hand. These 3 team members should be extremely proud of their achievement that night and are a great asset to that business, the manager should both be ashamed and embarrassed about the situation he left his team in, it was also brought to light that he hadn’t even told the bar maid that there was a band on that night - terrible behaviour for a manger - all those that work or have worked in this trade know that in this situation you put your pub and customers first, pull up your sleeves and get on that bar and work! Serious questions need to be asked here. Well done to those working that helped us enjoy our night, you did yourselves proud.

This is a great pub that sits off Sutton High street so was nowhere near as busy as some in the High street. It is bright and clean. Bar staff were friendly and a good choice of beers, larger and ciders. There are two dart boards and as we left a band was setting up. We didn't eat there so unable to comment.

Came in for an evening to watch some football, was pleasantly surprised by their food! Great value and a delicious burger.

We went here for Christmas Day. Never again awful. Took 2 hours to get food. So small one slice of chicken two roast potatoes. We left without even having pudding. Terrible £80 ahead kids £40 there food awful to.

Terrible food. Unbelievably awful.

The family and me came here on Christmas and it was just great. The atmosphere; the drinks and everything in between. Loved it!

Nice enough local. Reasonable price for a nice pint.

The food was very poor. I learnt that their chef had left, what a shame. Mundane over priced pub food that’s pretending to be upmarket. There’s no real feeling to the place as it was empty. While I was there only two people came in.

Friendly place prior to the Sutton v Horsham game. Could have had more staff earlier as one person serving meant a bit of a wait at the bar but sorted by the time the pub started to really fill up. Very spacious and welcoming.

Great live music with Nuno ess it was great night

There is lots to like about this pub. Three ales on and all in good condition. Made two visits about two hours apart on Saturday, and yet in that time the soap dispenser in the gents was still empty.

Lovely modern feeling pub, great food and drinks on offer. Bar staff are brilliant, and the live music is top notch 👌🏼

Took a party of 8 for Sunday lunch, must say great food and great value, good portion sizes, and plenty of meat. all served together, nice and hot. Will definitely go again

Very disappointing. Family Sunday dinner. Beef was tough, vegetables cold and undercooked. Two pieces of roast potato and spoonful of mash acceptable as was the yorkie. I don’t think our complaint was taken seriously. Sadly, I really was hoping to support this pub but the staff seem completely disinterested.

Okish local pub. Nothing fancy, but you get your fix of English ales

Excellent boozer on way to see an awful display by wallsall fc 0.4.The club I am saddled with.

friendly and calm environment… I liked it

Excellent pub, really trying to improve the night life in sutton, with life drawing, quizes, open mic nights. A good selection of food friendly staff and a well decorated interior, a must try if you are in the area.

Came here for the first time tonight for their weekly Monday quiz. It was a good night - the quiz was different but great fun, pub is clean and lovely, very friendly atmosphere and the new owners were very welcoming. They told me about their various plans - got a very good Freddy Mercury tribute on 7 Oct and open Mike nights starting Thursdays. I’ll be back again. A friend had some food and really liked it 😀

Had an excellent Sunday roast here. All cooked fresh and good sized portions. I had roast duo, with beef and chicken. Very tasty. The pub staff were excellent once we'd made a move to the bar to ask for a menu. I would suggest they make it clear how it works for lunch as there were 5 of us in our party and we'd booked a table ahead. We expected we may have been offered menus etc. However, once we knew the lie of the land and spoke with the staff, everyone was excellent. It was quite quiet for a Sunday but we were told it is under new management and they are trying to rebuild the pub's reputation. Wish them the best as they were genuinely nice people and deserve success.

Excellent pub, despite Sutton United losing a footie match

Great range of beers and wines, plus darts and board games!

Great local pub, great atomspere the way pubs we're a long time ago. great food especially the the roast's. shows sport on big screen and in the wonderful beer garden. large function room with bar. even offers pizzas for take out as well as eat in

Went on a Monday night, good chilled atmosphere and vibe. The interior is nice, very relaxed and well done. Did the quiz which was well presented by a young woman. Nice pub, I would recommend it.

Visited today - the Landlord is lovely as are all the staff. Great roast at a very reasonable price - can’t wait to come back soon!

I came here today for work.... Friendly, popular local pub The new Landlady Claire / landlord Steve who took over 8 weeks ago seem very nice people. Refurbished last year this beautiful pub was serving up some lovely looking food. I was met be Claire, very welcoming and really friendly. The place looks great after the refurbishment. It's got sports on the TV's with dining and seating areas out front and to the rear. It has a mid sized function room upstairs with some tables and chairs, this room also has a small bar. You'll have to ask one of them for more information on maybe using this for moms clubs and such or for celebrating 🤗 It has a Dart board and a huge selection of drinks... It looks a nice place for locals to relax and unwind. Best of luck with the new pub guys

New management have lifted this place, very friendly couple offering a warm welcome and a good pint. If your in the area give them a visit.

Great few hours in the pub, the young lady serving behind the bar was really lovely and helpful, great little find in Sutton

We was recommended to give the Robin Hood a try a while back , as we were told it was under new management and the food (especially the roasts) were exceptional. Upon our 1st visit , the place had clearly had a very decent make over , the staff were welcoming and the food was above average pub food - my husband and I had the beef burger and it was delicious. It had been a while since our initial visit , so we suggested to a few family members to meet up for a roast dinner here. After being told how popular the roasts are , I booked our table online with 2 high chairs as a requirement. When we arrived , it took a while to find someone to acknowledge my existence- eventually found a young guy (probably 16-17) mentioned that we had reserved and he said I would have to ask his mum. She happened to be serving people at the bar - so I mentioned our table reservation and she just blankly stared at me , shrugging her shoulders and said ‘well sit where you like’ . This meant that me and the family had to move tables and chairs to accommodate our party size, we have young children , so wasn’t ideal. We eventually sat down and we all ordered the roast dinner. Food arrived not long after we ordered - but only mine and my sister in laws . 10 minutes passed , my husband went to the bar and asked the same woman where our food was, as it would of been nice to of all eaten together - she then said that another order came in after ours , so it meant that the new order took priority over serving the rest of our food - I’m still now trying to figure out her logic - but on the thoughts of - lets not be rude just in case our food is abused before it gets to the table , we shut our mouths and waited a further 10 minutes, by this point my sister in law and I had finished our food. The food was ok , blatantly frozen potatoes and stuffing balls and the chicken was very dry - not worth the £14 each we was charged. The toilets also needed a bit of attention as there was no soap in the dispenser and the cold taps didn’t work either. It’s a real shame we had this experience as our first visit was great - on this occasion the staff , especially the lady at the bar , were clearly not meant for a customer facing job , as her attitude and lack of apology for the poor service made it a very unwelcoming afternoon for us. Therefore I can’t say we will bother coming here again.

First day after new management. Great experience. Beer garden is good. Dogs allowed. Back for a second time in one day.

Good beers, dog friendly and Friday night karaoke. What more could you ask for. Ok some better singers. 😂

Went for dinner mid April with friends and a lady who appeared to be on something was frantically running around and getting our order wrong. Talking to some guy at the bar rather than fix our drinks. The food finally came out after she managed to operate the till and the food was great. But if I wanted to be served thisnpoorly I would have gibe to a 5 guys

Great food, lovely beer garden, friendly staff, cheap drinks. What else do you need.

They have a new chef and it shows. I can’t remember having a better Sunday lunch anywhere. The meat was cooked to perfection and the vegetables had flavour - obviously not boiled or frozen. The pork was so tender!

Lovely and cosy pub. Food, drinks are great and the staff is friendly and helpful. Most important I can take my dog because are dog friendly 🐕

Awful experience on mothers Day. Wait for food was 3 hours, and then the chef walked out, so we ended up with no main meal. It's such a shame as the place has been done up. The starters we got was poor as was tiny portions.

Good food and reasonably priced

Not sure if the kitchen was having a bad day as the food was not good and all. The lobster mac & cheese was lukewarm and had no king prawns in like the menu states. The prawns where so small, they was hard to find. The lasagne was lukewarm too and not tasty at all. The pie pastry wasn’t cooked through, it was very doughy. The mixed grill just looked like all the food was thrown on the plate and did not look appetising at all. We ate the food as we were hungry and had a long wait, but were very disappointed. I have messaged the person I booked the table through to let him know but this was not even acknowledged. We like to support local business but won’t be going back and won’t be recommending them to anyone.

Last time it was a five star review, this time I’ve been waiting 2 hours for lunch (Morhers Day) and no food or apology. Staff seem to not care. Definitely don’t come here on a busy occasion because they can’t cope. After 90 mins starters turned up and ‘a selection of breads’ with mine turned out to be rock hard white bread.

Under new management. Drag queen last night then DJ after. Played fab music. Danced my socks off. Great atmosphere had a really good night and lovely staff.

Got to the pub for 2pm table for 4 . Had to go to the bar to order lunch and drinks (no problem) . Had to get our own napkins and cutlery , salt and pepper pots filthy. When we did eventually get our food it was delicious . Then ordered desert again the longest wait ever. Pub was very busy. Only 3 staff working who were run off their feet. Got out of there at 4.40. If you don’t mind the long wait go else where !!!

Very nice since the revamp and lovely new landlord

We visited yesterday as we wanted to have lunch in a dog friendly establishment. They had water and dog treats for the puppy (cute touch) We had a selection of starters which were amazing, followed by some mains, off the the pub selection. They all tasted lovely and good value for money. The pub is really clean and fresh, with a lovely atmosphere. We were recommended this place via Facebook group and will be visiting again.

Had a lovely family birthday dinner here. Delicious and varied menu, friendly bar staff. We'll be back!

Nice old traditional pub very nice on a sunny day as you can sit outside

Ok beer over £5 pounds not good

Good range of beers, wines and spirits. Friendly service and the food was good and tasty.

Hats off to the whole Robin Hood Team. Great quiz and a lovely selection of curries for everyone taking part and all for charity. Big thanks to you.

Thank you for the late baby shower booking I’m tempted to drive up to London from Devon just to meet you lovely guys 💙💙 xxxxx
