The Sun

A nice pub for Sunday lunch. Came here for lunch, had scotch egg and whitebait for starters, both tasted amazing. The actual Sunday roast was a disappointment (we had better at the sun before), potatoes tasted poached, meat too, and tasted bland. But this may be a one off. In general, good pub I’d recommend a visit after a nice stroll through Morden Hall.

A very pubby pub. Not a boozer but still convivial. Food leaning into gastro with the kitchen obviously taking pride in their offerings. When full of an evening it feels hearty. The owner clearly likes being there. The staff are chatty. I tried to take some stars off so my review feels less fanish but I couldn't in all heart think of any area that deserved it. It is a really good little pub, tucked away from the main drag along the ponds and sadly easily overlooked; lord knows I missed it for years and now regret that fact.

I booked The Sun Gin Library for my 50th birthday celebration in early March. From planning to execution The Sun was faultless. Attention to details, while still keeping a relaxed approach was welcome. The advice & suggestions put forward along the way , when undecided on any points during the planning were spot on! On the night, to avoid congestion at the bar area, The Sun provided different drink stations spread out within the function area (such as wine trees, a separate ‘station’ with a barrel of ale & iced buckets for the different beers). Great idea! The various seating areas provided also suited my guests- such as the younger guests making a space for themselves, congregating on the balcony area & using the blankets provided. There was also different seating areas inside & plenty of floor space to move around, or dance if you wanted. The birthday cake - was fittingly showcased on its own table. I had created a Spotify playlist for the night which they kindly played through their music system. The food was outstanding & have since had several comments from my guests about how great it was. The team of staff for the function were brilliant - special thank you to Ed, Mia & Nathan. Thanks Jo & the team. For helping to make my 50th party a night to remember. Will be back for another superb Sunday lunch in the near future.

Lovely local and will be back. Nut roast was good, but the gravy could have a bit more flavour and be a bit thicker. Cheese tart was very small for the price - a slice of tart would be more accurate. Hopefully I can give it 5 stars next time.

Traditional London pub. Three generations of our family enjoyed great lunchtime food, and there was a good selection of real ales. Recommended 10/10.

The food was reasonably priced and very good portion size (especially the quiz burger deal on the Tuesday!). The staff were friendly. The pub is reasonably sized inside, but not ideal for pushchairs etc, but it does have an outside(which I presume would be ideal in summer although I didn't see it). They welcome dogs and have water/treats available for them. They also have a selection of games to play. The prices are reasonable. The quiz night (Tuesday), was fun. And they do other things throughout the week. I didn't see any TV's though... But i'd definitely recommend popping in!

I would give it a 4.5 star for the food because it was mostly good, but the lamb roast lacked a bit of seasoning, and the fish (from fish and chips) was a bit bland. Else the food was generally nice. The 5 star, though, is for the service. Very friendly and accommodating service. My son wanted roast chicken with gravy in place of the chicken goujons, and that was accommodated without a fuss. The puddings were also very tasty, and the cocktails were nice. It's a nice atmosphere as well for a Sunday dinner.

A big thank you to Jo, Beth, Bonnie & Ria and all the team at The Sun. We had a fantastic wedding reception in the gin library. Great organisation, communication and planning from Jo & Beth made wedding planning simple. Bonnie, Ria & team were excellent on the day, nothing was too much trouble for you. You made every guest feel welcome. The decoration was beautiful and the the gin library was immaculate! The guests raved about the food, every dish was delicious. L&S
