Priory Arms, Stockwell, London

Ooooh this one’s a good’un.

If two Qype captains insist that a pub is good, you can bet they’re right. But ooooh they’ve outdone themselves with this one.

It’s taken me several months to get here, after failed pub quizzes, failed trains and other misadventures, I found myself in here last week catching up with a friend. This is the perfect place to have a good gossip.

The bar staff are lovely, and didn’t seem to mind that we had a five minute conversation at the bar before ordering (as i said, we were catching up!) But there’s just a great vibe about the place. The rose was good, not great, but good enough for me to have two glasses. Think it was about £4.50 for a large glass so not too shabby.

I really want to come back and try the food here, but i was in Stockwell as my favourite Spanish restaurant is here. But this pub gets my five stars for being fabulous, friendly and apparently in support of the social smoker. They let you buy single smokes behind the bar. Brilliant.

The Priory Arms is not far from were i use to work and i like to go back every 2 months. It is one of the best pubs in London, everyone is very nice and the food is top class i think. The Sunday Roast in the Priory Arms is out of this world, it’s so nice with the best beef. Just writing this makes me want to go there now. I can’t wait until time back there.

A brilliant pub. Incredible food, plenty of decent beers (Summer Lightening especially) and the best pub quiz I’ve been to.

Would be good if they served food later on a Sunday and the small front garden suffers from lack of afternoon sun but one of the best pubs in the area.

Update

Went back on Sunday and had the most amazing roast lunch. Beautifully cooked chicken, mounds of vegetables and yorkshire pudding. The sticky toffee pudding was perfect too. The Priory Arms has just graduated to 5*s for me!

A very decent little pub off the beaten track in Stockwell. We went here for the quiz last night and had a brilliant time! Summer Lightening on tap and very friendly staff. The quiz questions were interesting and fun. I will now never forget “at which sporting event a british boxer peed in the corner of the ring”........ the answer is of course “Crufts”. Ho, Ho, Ho. Very clever.

What a shame they don’t serve the famous sunday roast after 6pm! We were all very excited about sampling the mouth watering menu but unfortunately the kitchen had closed.

I will definitely be coming back for the quiz soon and maybe lunch on Sunday.
