Food Quality

Pros:

  • "The vegetarian roast was the best I've ever had."
  • "We enjoyed the fish and chips which was excellent and came with delicious fresh garlic mayo."
  • "The food and burgers are great!"
  • "Food is lovely. Plenty of drink options and a good wine selection."
  • "I had a grilled chicken salad with croutons and a side of new potatoes with tarragon and butter all of which was very tasty."
  • "Ordered some food after popping in for a pint and assumed it would be standard pub fare. I ordered the pork with crackling, slaw and roast potatoes, and it was one of the best meals I've had in a pub."
  • "We took roast chicken and roasted belly pork, which was so delicious."

Cons:

  • "The deserts were no better - a single firm peach ('grilled') with soya yogurt - which was next to non existent."
  • "The food itself was ok, but nothing to write home about and not cheap either."
  • "Food from the burger shack was crazily over priced - £16 for a frankly average lamb burger."
  • "When it did come was rather underwhelming, not worth the money and was cold."
  • "Burgers were akin to something off the child's menu."
  • "The food was just awful. Had to send back several times, issues with all sorts + one dish described as something which it wasn’t even close to 'panzanella salad' dish."
  • "The food wasn't the greatest, quite dry. (We had the sandwich)."

Atmosphere & Ambience

Pros:

  • "The outside area is great for summers, they do barbeques on the weekend."
  • "Brilliant pub garden with huge canopy so plenty of seating in all weathers."
  • "Massive garden with a brilliant atmosphere."
  • "A really busy pub. Lots of outside seating with colourful umbrellas."
  • "Great atmosphere, pleasant place to eat and drink."
  • "Fantastic pub that is always a delight to visit. It has a very large garden."
  • "Lovely pub with a massive outside area."

Cons:

  • "From the outside, it looks tiny and old, outdated, a place your grandparents went to, as young adults."
  • "Very disappointed with the lack of beer, etc late yesterday afternoon."
  • "Sadly I can't recommend the Leather Bottle Earlsfield as a venue to book an event."
  • "Unfortunately, this is an 'establishment' that you can miss in Earlsfield."
  • "The mens toilets are small for the size of the pub with three urinals and only one sink and hand dryer."
  • "The outside toilets are a bit dodgy and could use some dusting and cleaning."
  • "It rained and the Astro turf grass got so waterlogged it was hard to walk on without getting wet socks."

Price & Value

Pros:

  • "The mains menu looks better value."
  • "The drinks and food are very affordable (great value for money.)"

  • "We had the Sunday Roast and it was very nice."
  • "The staff, the food and the atmosphere were great."

Cons:

  • "The only slight downside was price of my beer at £7.10 a pint but saying that I suppose it is normal prices for London."
  • "However paid nearly £15 for a rum and coke?! Even with inflation that seems ridiculous as I paid £15 for a fancy cocktail in Soho just the other day."
  • "Food from the burger shack was crazily over priced."
  • "Plus 12 quid for just a burger with no fries...!? I'm a Londoner and that's steep."
  • "Prices are a bit higher than what we expected."
  • "Nice venue but the food menu was pretty limited and over priced."
  • "Quite disappointed paying £24.50 for steak, which was requested as medium rare and was more like medium to well done."
