The Running Horse in Sunbury-on-Thames in Spelthorne - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The worst burger I've eaten in my entire life. I spent £25 for a double stack burger with curly fries, and clucking hot stack meal . We were hungry and struggled to finish the meals.

My wife and I eat here fairly regularly and I have to say that recently the quality of the food has really improved. Staff are friendly and welcoming and if you want want fair food and drink at good value prices, The Running Horse is the place

the food was lovely and staff were so accommodating with everything. the family loved the peaceful atmosphere, drinks were nice and wasnt too expensive, definitely going again.

Lovely food brilliance I tell you ! Loved every bite and every minute and I loved Ed he’s a good looking lad his girlfriend a very lucky lady !!!

Had exceptional food thanks to phil and Jonnie, brilliant friendly service from Ed, Would highly recommend to family and friends

Nice festive menu the very tasty haloumi burger was great with a nice portion of chips . There are some other nice tasty festive options just haven’t got round to them yet.

Had exceptional food thanks to Melissa and Jonnie, brilliant friendly b service from Ed page and skylar. Would highly recommend

Took several family members for lunch. Everyone enjoyed their meal and was complimentary. I’m told they do they do a very nice Sauvignon Blanc. Very polished service from a gentleman named Ed. Great value too, ideal for casual family dining.

I had a fantastic time nice welcoming staff friendly atmosphere great food and refreshments top quality

Popped in and had a few drinks and the service by the staff was all good, and the drinks are cheap and cheerful

The food was lovely thanks to remi and Melissa and the service at the bar was amazing thank you so much Jason and Charlie well done it was very busy

Walked in and under the impression we was going to get the kids meal for a pound after paying for a full price adult meal to then be told when I was ordering that the kids didn’t eat for a pound and it had additional cost to any side and drinks that you may like to add. To then Continue my experience here to rude bar staff which is a young brown hair boy who stuffs his face with pork scratchings whilst his leg if lent against the wall very rude and unprofessional if you ask me.staff who huffed and puffed at my questions about my order, to then I proceeded to sit at my table for my food to come it then arrived cold burnt and tasteless in which I did not enjoy my experience here hence the reason for zero stars do not come here ever.

Was greeted by a great member of staff (Charlie) who was able to answer questions as well as give us a lot of information about drinks. Also was very helpful in reminding us about the car registration. Look forward to coming back soon

the drinks are low priced and they always seem to have different promotions going on like at the moment £10 a bottle of wine when usually £16. they also got a wide range of food options so they had something for the whole family.

I was visiting a friend down here in London and was very happy with the prices and the service. The bartender who was a young lad took care of us tremendously. If I get the chance to come down and visit again I will.

Working in london you don't normally find cheap good food but this is priced very reasonably. Staff are always pleasant with time to talk abi is very helpful.

Made a quick visit here on 2nd June 2019 for a drink, on route home to the south coast. Two weeks later a parking fine arrives for £50. Not good customer relations, to pay to visit a pub.

I have been in here a few times and every time I have been in the staff are always friendly and helpful, the different food I have also ordered each time I have been in is so tasty and delicious it just makes me want...

I went to the running horse for dinner with my family food was amazing the staff so nice and helpful

Have been in a few times and everyone there is lovely and the food there is amazing if I could give a higher rating I would

I had lunch today with my husband, daughter and Granddaughter. There were only two members of staff running the busy bar and restaurant service, Charlie and I think her name was Becky - both doing an amazing job under very stressful circumstances. The food was ok, not hot and took a long time to arrive. The refurbishment is really good but with a bit more effort it could bring this pub to a much higher standard.

When we entered this sizzles there was a musty smell and I should have let that be a clue of things to come... We picked our table and looked at the menu which I found not too impressive. There was a deal but from a limited menu. When the food arrived the portion for price were not worth it apart from choosing from the limited menu. We ordered cocktail which were not stirred & not made with care. I ordered a burger and she seemed to not know that it came with a drink no receipt was given The tables were cleaned by leaving salt on the top of one table and another had a left over chip by the chair leg and an empty child's juice bottle and serviette was seated on the window not too far from the chip. Also when our food arrived we had ordered additional onion rings which look non too healthy but tasted just ok. The burger I ordered was tasteless and was suppose to come with sauce but non was present.. The hunters chicken well let's say we have had better. The staff or lack of the were friendly enough but other diners were having problems with their orders.

Good value for money Staff could be happier and tables cleaner. Toilets could also do with a good clean and airfreshern.

Refurb amazing great food lovely friendly staff great atmosphere would highly recommend very clean and tidy inside and out well done running horse

Refurb is very nice. Come in for lunch couple of times a month and it’s most definitely an improvement. Food is nice, don’t think I’ve had a bad lunch. All reasonably priced. Staff always friendly and welcoming

Newly refurbishment was greatly needed and has been done to a High standard

We had Sunday lunch with family for 14 of us, we were looked after very well and all the food was fantastic. The refurb is wonderful, really lovely place to eat. Nice little extras like putting iced water on the table Would highly recommend

Went here for family meal for the reopening after it being refurbished and what a lovely transformation, clean and up to date. food is lovely there, staff are friendly would definitely return there 👍🏻

Wow what a transformation, now passing through this place stands out. It looks so inviting. Greeted my general manager who showed us to table. Menu is great plenty off choice and food came out great. Will be back again

its a great establishment and i think the referb is only going to add to the experience, quality food and drink. will go there again

Most amazing staff ever met. So funny and lovely and made me and my boyfriend the happiest people. Would 100% recommend for a banterous time!!!!

Great place for quiet work related interviews and meetings alike. Pleasant staff members and delicious food. Highly recommend a trip to this venue.

Had an excellent Christmas lunch at The Running Horse for £11:99, 3 courses, super friendly staff and a huge car park a real bargain. Will come back again.

This must be the best view of any resturaunt. The Thames and swans and ducks. Boats up and down. This was Sunday lunch special . Hot tasty and reasonable price. We went to our friends wedding here in 1980 so they where pleased to Return.

This place is good. It is not great but it is nice. I sometimes might go here. It is a bit dry so make sure you get a drink. J20 is recommended.

Have tried most of the new food that have come on the new menu and no complaints from me as I’ve enjoyed them all

The drinks was lovely and the staff were brilliant. the regulars make the pub feel like a home. the time i waited at the bar for felt like nothing. they got to me as quick as they could with a smile on their face.

Visited on a Saturday evening after a hectic day, what a great place, staff were friendly and helpful and the prices are reasonable, we opted for the House sharing platter and mixed grill skillets everything was well cooked and of good quality, we will certainly be back. If you are wheelchair bound there is plenty of access inside and out

This establishment had a reputation for poor service and poor food. I have found this on several occasions . Also the bar regularly runs out of beer. On my last occasion, I sent my meal back as the beef was of poor quality and cold. My partner and father had finished their meals when my replacement eventually arrived! Needless to say I said it was too late. I received no apology and just disgruntled comments . Stay well clear!

The food took an hour and there were only four of us ,the lasagne tasted just like soap after all four of us trying it we all agreed that it was disgusting and the person that ordered it didn't eat anymore after the first bite.after complaining the waiter/bar staff didn't once apologise. we also discovered lots of gum underneath the table . My peas were still a little frozen,sausages were overcooked and we ordered 3 slices of bread but only got two.they didn't have half the food we wanted and was glad they didn't have enough lasagne. the men just across the room we shouting and swearing very loudly although i don't think there's much they can do about that.but apart from all that the dessert was really nice.

We went to the pub on the May bank holiday well what a day!!!! Credit where credit is due it was a great day for a little girl Eden very busy and all the team pulled together well done to The Running Horse great job! My family loved it

Came for breakfast only to find the pub closed. It opens at 11 o’clock. While that might be breakfast time to staff in the pub or the sizzling franchise, it most certainly isn’t to anyone else, according to Mail on-line breakfast should be at 7am, with lunch at 12.30. So who comes for breakfast at 11 ?

We were four adults and two children on Sunday afternoon. Ordered food at the bar but was a very long time before it was brought to the table. It appeared that on the day we visited they only had two staff members on. The waitress did apologise and said that they'd just phoned for another person to come in and help as they weren't usually that busy. Will definitely go back as the food was very good and plentiful.

Food is well prepared and tasty and is very good value for money. Met up with some friends for a few drinks and some bites to eat. Good evening. Staff are very cheerful. Big car park.

Cheep price good quality food kids meals at a good portion size. Staff friendly. Pub in need of a clean and referb but it’s a good quality pub drinks cheep food lovely.

Popped in for a drink after racing , locals made us feel really welcome very friendly . Had a great evening .

Very nice for the price, The quality was exceptional and steak done perfectly, will definitely be coming back!!

Came here with my family the pub wasn't busy, the service was good and the food was exceptional compliments to the chef Roxie,The steak was cooked perfect. Food was not expensive good value for money will sure return

Started suprised that there was a £1.00 parking charge for two hours so went to check the food availability before I paid. Place was messy, no menus at most tables and chairs rearranged not enough for 2 of us to sit down. No one serving for quite a while then when I ordered they tried to charge .99p for bbq sauce. I declined to pay to park and extra for sauce and had a take away instead. Gone very downhill since last visit.

we visited on a Sunday afternoon at 3 pm , the pub was fairly quite so we found a table easily.We was greeted by a young member of staff who was very friendly and polite.

Ate here this evening, three generations, lots of choice and different sizes of meal. The two young men on duty...
