Husband & I enjoyed dinner here on Saturday. We had starters and main courses, all of which were really good quality and as you'd expect for a good gastro pub. Good choice of wines by the glass and husband pleased with real ales - especially as they were serving Sambrook's Wandle. All in all would recommend.

My local. Always very safe, steady and pleasant service. It feels like a renovated grand home which balances at the top end of a Pub whilst also sitting comfortable as a fine gastro cuisine based experience. The staff are never over-bearing and to be honest very laid back. It has an adjoining conservatory which you can dine in from the main body of the restaurant or I presume is often hired out for special occasions. The management always welcome you with a handshake which is comforting. For what you get, its not the cheapest but the general ambiance and experience is pleasant enough for this to be overlooked. It's a lovely venue although I'm not keen on eateries where you can bring you Dog inside.

The staff are never over-bearing and to be honest very laid back. It has an adjoining conservatory which you can dine in from the main body of the restaurant or I presume is often hired out for special occasions. I am not sure if it was on this day for a children's party or just a children's day out as so many little ones, however this did spoil the meal as the children were very loud and boisterous. However, for a quick meal in and out this was not endured for too much longer. The Manager is really nice and recognizes and addresses regular diners which is a nice touch. My only gripe is that if you are sitting near the door from the outside patio area, when patrons are coming in and out the door slams where no effort has been made to stop this. It is highly annoying and loud. For what you get, its not the cheapest but the general ambiance and experience is pleasant enough for this to be overlooked. It's a lovely venue.

Found The Canbury online and there were 9 of us for dinner. Excellent menu choices and the quality of food and wine was fabulous. Great atmosphere/ambience and very welcoming,friendly and helpful staff My only slight criticism might be that the restaurant was a little understaffed but this would not deter us from dining there again

We first visited the Canbury Arms for Sunday lunch with my parents a few weeks ago. It was delicious, the service was good and we didn't have to wait too long. The second visit was a birthday lunch with friends. There were seven us in total plus our dog. Everyone commented how relaxing it was. No one rushed us, service again was good and everyone enjoyed their meals. Recommended for catch up with friends or family who enjoy good food and drink in a relaxing atmosphere.

We were a group of 24 people inclusive of children. The food was very good. The delivery time was well managed. Everyone was very happy. Great traditional British food with a bit of twist. We love dining at the Canbury Arms and it was great to celebrate my daughter's birthday there. We will always come back to the Canbury Arms - best fish and chips in Kingston!

First visit to the Canbury Arms for dinner; had previously visited for drinks. It was fairly quiet (Monday night) but the Manager came to meet us (as it was also my birthday) and we were quickly served our drinks. The food was good. The set menu at £14 for 2 courses and £18 for 3 was good value and some nice choices. My friend had the baby back ribs which looked succulent and tasty. Overall, a very pleasant evening and I will return.

Canbury Arms is the best independent pub & restaurant in Kingston, I've eaten here many times and the quality and service are always good. The mackerel fillets were delicious but I particularly enjoyed the puddings - we shared cheesecake and rhubarb crumble.
