"I’ve been coming to this place for years having grown up in the area but I was hugely disappointed by my recent experience. We were a party of five family members meeting for a pre Christmas get together including my elderly parents (both in their mid/late 80s). We were told that our booking was for two hours yet we were seated 25 mins late, despite arriving on time, and then harassed to leave at the initial booking end time without any consideration to the fact that we were seated late. When we’d been sat for a few minutes the waiter came over and said that she’d need to take our order as the kitchen was closing soon. We ordered some extra drinks, when they arrived two of the three drinks were wrong. A Diet Coke instead of a Coke Zero, some random beer instead of a cider. My brother swapped his out at the bar but I just made do. There was no vegetarian/vegan main on the menu. I’ve been in pubs on the Outer Hebrides with a better vegetarian offer. This is Clapham. The waiter did acknowledge that it wasn’t good enough and initially pointed me towards the three cold veg/vegan starters but then said they could ask the chef if they could do me ‘something’. That ‘something’ turned out to be pasta and vegetables or risotto with broccoli etc. I opted for the risotto. What arrived was a very sad, grey, watery risotto with a few pieces of mushroom. We weren’t offered the dessert menu presumably because the kitchen had closed sometime previously. The pub was exceptionally busy and I could see the staff were doing their best in trying circumstances and were all very pleasant but why did the pub take our booking in the first instance? It seemed like a situation of trying to cram in as many bookings as possible in the lead up to Christmas to make as much money as possible without any consideration of the customer’s experience. This isn’t a cheap pub and what we had was a third rate experience instead of the joyful Christmas get together that we were all hoping for. There are plenty of other places to eat in Clapham and in future I will be doing just that."

I've been in here for a few dinners and a few rounds of drinks, and it's definitely a hidden gem.

Our first time at the Bobbin did not disappoint. The manager was super helpful on arrival making sure we had shade in the lovely courtyard garden. The starters were delicious (burrata salad was calamari). The chicken roast was superb and friends ordered the halibut which was also lovely. The pub does not have a kids menu as such but the pasta the kids had was delicious, handmade and really tasty. Wish we had discovered this place a little sooner!

Lovely pub with great bar, decor and atmosphere. Good menu although missing a lighter healthier main option quite a few pasta options and then others were sausages, burger etc. I had the beef ragu pappardelle which was delicious and very generous. I went with 5 friends, with two having the sausages and mash and the other two having the sausage ragu pasta and everyone was delighted with their meal. Thoroughly enjoyed our lunch and afternoon there, looking forward to going back. Visualizza piatti

Having lived here for long enough, I know that pub lunch prices in London can be high, but the quality has typically followed. Not here a very expensive menu is let down by badly cooked food. The Bobbin burger was dense and overdone, with no structure due to the amount of wetness on it through the mozzarella, sauce and onions and the chips were more like wedges, but nice and crispy. Friend's roast had rock solid roasties that needed a decent bit more cooking. Calamari starter was very tasty but again, expensive for the size. G&T was lovely so there's that. All in, passable food but too expensive for what you get and the service was just a bit unusual.

A popular pub located in a residential side street just on the edge of Clapham’s Old Town, it looks quite attractive from the outside with the extensive blue wooden façade covering the whole of the ground floor, although that’s obviously not original and thus not quite as traditional looking as it may have been at one time. The menu offered a decent enough selection of dishes, although they were certainly a step or two up from your usual “pub grub” both in terms of price and style. Even a burger was £17.50, with the majority of the main courses being around £25. I started with the Burrata, black fig pomegranate salad with pesto, pine nuts, focaccia Capezzana olive oil which was a decent and...

"this use to an old favorite restaurant of us many years ago before it changed the hands. we saw the alex polizzi TV program, but since then did not have the opportunity to visit. we have booked online. when we arrived, I tried to explain that we had reserved online, but the waitress did not seem disturbed, nor did she check. she wanted to tell us that the pizza oven didn't work so there were no pizzas or garlic bread etc. it was good to say before we came to our table and we appreciate it. the food was excellent and the chef came out a few times to check that everyone enjoys his meals, which was a very nice note. the waitresses were very pleasant, but seemed to have confidence in what they did. there were some confusion about our weeping mission, which was our fault. we were not offered when we arrived, and it was only after they came for our food order that we could ask for drinks. there was a pretty wait for our appetizers (tomatenbruschetta and mushroom bruschetta) and then the main dishes (tomatenwurst al forno and lasagne), but if that is what it takes to prepare the excellent food we enjoyed, then it is worth it. we also think that we are too familiar with restaurants that almost food of not particularly good quality. overall a very good experience and we will return. Perhaps the waitress could do with a little, but more workout to improve her confidence."
