    We chose to sit in the bar to eat at lunch time. We had booked and they gave us a quiet corner seat which was ideal. We still had table service and didn’t need to order at the bar Staff were very efficient and friendly. Food was good we all enjoyed what we had ordered

    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
