   Good attentive staff, atmosphere and decor were lovely. However my oyster mushroom main was inedible as it was so salty and slimy, and a very small portion considering it was more expensive than the fish and chips or the burger and chip. Shame

   Been before and thought was fabulous. However we’d looked forward to NYE and booked in advance Food was cold, drinks came after starter was finished and service frosty/no hellos/welcome.

   Excellent Sunday roast. Potatoes could do with some improvement but the rest was very good. Great wine list and service.

   Busy December Saturday and a few times the staff seemed to be creaking under the strain but they remained charming even when a little slow and we were in no hurry. Also the Apollo Arms is quite big space so when it fills it does get loud, again a function of it being almost Christmas. Tricky to have a conversation at times but fair enough and definitely better to have too much atmosphere than too little. The food was beyond doubt excellent. Very similar in style and quality to its sister pubs, which in our view is very good indeed. Venison pie in particular was a delicious stand out.

   The pub is great, but the dining area desperately (desperately) needs some acoustic dampening. You can’t hear the other people at your table speak when there’s any more than 10 other people in the pub. Which is always. This is a bit of a social killer.

   Christmas Sunday Roast was mediocre at best, with the turkey tough & fatty. To cost £100 (no alcohol) for two people with soup starters + cauliflower cheese felt like a lot … at least the atmosphere was good, but wish we’d gone with the Fish & Chips (which looked great!)

   What an amazing place to dine! Absolutely everything was OUT THE GATE 🤩🙌 loved the food, we were there for a roast and gosh did The Apollo Arms provide. The most delectable roast veggies, succulent and yummy, meat was so tender and honestly just melts in your mouth (I LOVED the chicken). The staff were amazing, so genuinely caring, tentative and just gave off an awesome fun energy. A big biggg thank you to Freddie who looked after us so well (my son has whispered to me he wants to be just like him when he grows up - so thank you for being a role model as well)!! The decor and interiors were divine, anyway really blabbing now but I just couldn’t suggest this place enough. Thank You Apollo Arms - one of my best meals yet in London
