"Came in for a beer with some old friends and straight away it was clear they didn’t want us there. They grudgingly served us and we had a couple of beers. As we were just getting ready to leave the person who I assume is the manager of the place came up to the only woman in our company and aggressively got in her face and demanded she finish her drink and give them the glass. This used to be my favourite pub in town and I thought it would be nice to come and support the place, but it appears the current owners don’t want the business. The chatter around town is that the Racehorse isn’t what it used to be and you would be much better off going to The Sun or The Hope. This pub frequently changes hands, when the current owners inevitably fail and sell the business I will come in again and see if they actually give a damn. Such a shame, it used to be a fantastic welcoming place for friends and family. I will be telling all my local friends and family about this experience and I’m sure they will be very disappointed, as many of us have long term connection to this pub."

The chicken noodle dish was delicious. It was a large portion, so I couldn't finish it all. My friends also loved their meals. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience. I will definitely return.

We came with a couple of friends for a couple of drinks over the weekend and were pleasantly surprised to see they had a live band aswell. Loved the music and had an amazing time for the rest of the night.

Went here tonight with my fellow zumba dancers for karaoke. What a fabulous atmosphere! Lived in Wallington all my life never been to this pub before but we will certainly be coming back. Thanks for a great night. xxx

The food at this restaurant was amazing, the service from the staff was friendly, welcoming, and kind, and the atmosphere was delightful. It was made even more special by the fact that the England national football team was playing in the World Championship. Overall, everything was outstanding. View menu

Tasty food. Came down with the family for dinner and the food was delicious. The lady working at the bar went through the menu with us and really helped with picking our options. We also had dessert. The banana bread with peanut butter and ice cream was something else. Will definitely be back with the family.

The manager of the place ruined our night. We just wanted to have a few drinks. This horrible person rudely shouted in my friends face and forced her to drink her wine and give the glass back. There was absolutely no reason or cause for this kind of behaviour. Absolutely shocking. They talk about their “friendly atmosphere” on their website. What a joke. Won’t be back. AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE.

Went for a drink with friends. Just one ale on tap. OK ish, but not the best. Loud, unpleasant atmosphere. Inefficient, inattentive staff the girl couldn't even work the till, and overcharged £7.35 for a pint and small diet coke! If your passing, just keep going. Four much better pubs just a few hundred yards away, serving better beer, with pleasant staff. My advice DON'T GO HERE. AVOID, AVOID, AVOID!!! View menu

I recently arranged for a wake to be held at the Racehorse. Beatrice was extremely helpful and accommodating when it came to selecting the menu and portion sizes. The buffet had a wide variety of delicious food and was very reasonably priced. One of our guests had a gluten allergy, and Beatrice not only assured me that there would be gluten-free options available on the buffet, but she also personally brought out a special platter just for him.

We arrived on a wet night to be out of the rain and get something to eat.We possibly pikked the wrong place. On entering the place we turned left, into the saloon bar. Perhaps we should have gone right, into the lounge. But who makes the diference, these days? Drinks were fine, food was mediocre, locals were terrible. Any publican should put these loadmouthing drunks outside, to cool down in the rain. But perhaps they are too important in ensuring the continuing existence of the pub.

"I visited my elderly Mum today, she suggested going to the Derby Arms for a roast dinner as she'd eaten there recently with my sister. However they were fully booked, so I looked online and found Galu. The reviews were great and my Mum has only ever heard good things from friends and neighbours. So I called and booked for 12:45 Sunday 21st Jan 2024. We were both pleasantly surprised to see roast dinners on the menu ... Mum order lamb and I ordered beef part of their set menu. When the dinners arrived, you could see straight away that the lamb was Very Fatty (not even crispy) when my my tried eating it, it was both tough and chewy! As for the beef, this was cooked ok and edible, although I asked for the beef to be medium, but it was more well done. The waiter came over to ask if the meal was ok, I highlighted how the lamb was... the manager then came over and offered my Mum a slice of beef to compensate, bearing in mind she ordered lamb. Mum subsequently found that some of her roast potatoes were hard inside! I finished my meal, but could see Mum really didn't enjoy hers leaving a substantial amount on her plate, and having tried her lamb it really was inedible! We were then offered a full list of desserts rather than the set menu, having chocolate brownie and creme brûlée (both were gorgeous) When the bill arrived, I was hoping they would have somehow made amends, but alas no ... as Mum doesn't like to cause a fuss and it was her treat, I decided not to say anything, although the staff manager could tell we weren't happy. Having come from East Sussex for the day and regularly have great Sunday roasts in local pubs, I was hoping for something special in this restaurant, but sadly that wasn't the case. In fact it's probably one of the worst roast dinners I've had in a long time. I very much doubt we'll return ..."
