About

The Apollo Arms is a charming pub and dining room in the heart of Clapham Old Town, effortlessly blending countryside character with contemporary comfort. The menu focuses on seasonal British cooking, with the Sunday roast drawing particularly strong praise from regulars. Whether you're after a leisurely coffee with the newspapers, a light lunch, or a full three-course meal, the kitchen delivers quality dishes throughout the day.

The pub strikes a lovely balance between traditional warmth and modern dining sensibilities, with a spacious garden that becomes a real asset in good weather. The atmosphere manages to feel both relaxed enough for casual drinks and polished enough for special occasions, attracting a loyal neighbourhood following.

Dog owners will be pleased to know that four-legged friends are genuinely welcomed throughout the pub and garden, making it an excellent choice for dining out with your dog. The team's approach to canine guests feels natural rather than contrived, which regulars particularly appreciate.
