We've visited many times - each has been fantastic. The best pub in Carshalton.

A nice pub for Sunday lunch. Came here for lunch, had scotch egg and whitebait for starters, both tasted amazing. The actual Sunday roast was a disappointment (we had better at the sun before), potatoes tasted poached, meat too, and tasted bland. But this may be a one off. In general, good pub I’d recommend a visit after a nice stroll through Morden Hall.

I love this pub, The food is always amazing and the cocktails are perfectly made. Good beer and wine selection. Best pub in Carshalton for sure. Sunday roast is on point .Kid-friendliness: Kids and dogs are welcome

The food was reasonably priced and very good portion size (especially the quiz burger deal on the Tuesday!). The staff were friendly. The pub is reasonably sized inside, but not ideal for pushchairs etc, but it does have an outside(which I presume would be ideal in summer although I didn't see it). They welcome dogs and have water/treats available for them. They also have a selection of games to play.The prices are reasonable.The quiz night (Tuesday), was fun. And they do other things throughout the week.I didn't see any TV's though... But i'd definitely recommend popping in!

I booked The Sun Gin Library for my 50th birthday celebration in early March. From planning to execution The Sun was faultless. Attention to details, while still keeping a relaxed approach was welcome. The advice & suggestions put forward along the way , when undecided on any points during the planning were spot on! On the night, to avoid congestion at the bar area, The Sun provided different drink stations spread out within the function area (such as wine trees, a separate ‘station’ with a barrel of ale & iced buckets for the different beers). Great idea! The various seating areas provided also suited my guests- such as the younger guests making a space for themselves, congregating on the balcony area & using the blankets provided. There was also different seating areas inside & plenty of floor space to move around, or dance if you wanted. The birthday cake - was fittingly showcased on its own table. I had created a Spotify playlist for the night which they kindly played through their music system. The food was outstanding & have since had several comments from my guests about how great it was. The team of staff for the function were brilliant - special thank you to Ed, Mia & Nathan. Thanks Jo & the team. For helping to make my 50th party a night to remember. Will be back for another superb Sunday lunch in the near future.Vegetarian options: There are always ample choiceParking: Surrounding roads

Excellent service and very friendly staff. Food of good quality if a little expensive. We had a party of 8 and we all received our meal at the same time. Variety of beer and wines available. What could you complain about! We went lunchtime mid week, so a little quiet.

A very pubby pub. Not a boozer but still convivial. Food leaning into gastro with the kitchen obviously taking pride in their offerings. When full of an evening it feels hearty. The owner clearly likes being there. The staff are chatty.I tried to take some stars off so my review feels less fanish but I couldn't in all heart think of any area that deserved it. It is a really good little pub, tucked away from the main drag along the ponds and sadly easily overlooked; lord knows I missed it for years and now regret that fact.

I celebrated my 60th birthday here in the gin library at The Sun and we had a fabulous time.You can't fault the food, the service, or the atmosphere.Thank you to Jo the manager for all her support planning the event, and Bonnie for running it all so smoothly. So very grateful, and everyone had a good time.A friend is already booking her 60th there following mine!
A gem of a pub - great food lovely atmosphere go visit real London vibes in this lovely pub ?⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars from me - highly recommended!

Pudding at the end of Burns’ Night Supper. Feel full to bursting.I was worried that Callum might lose a finger whilst addressing the Haggis. Thankfully no ambulance required!

Really warm, friendly place. Good range of drinks, reasonable priced, for alcohol and non alcohol alike. Staff were knowledgeable and attentive, really good service. I was here for a friend's birthday party so we were in the top floor room. The decor was great, a bit of fun without it being overbearing. The food was absolutely delicious and generous portions. I'm usually a bit sceptical about roasts but the chicken one was really good: massive Yorkshire and swimming in gravy (in a good way). I don't usually like potatoes but these ones were fluffy with right about of crisp on the outside. Really struggle to fault it.

I came to the sun for dinner after work.Really quick service and friendly staff.I ordered the burger and the sticky toffee which was tasty.Cocktails a bit too strong to enjoy, especially for the price.

We had a group booking for lunch in Jan 2023. it was so freezing cold that we all had to wear our coats and the senior member of staff lied that the heating was on but the radiators were cold. I hope the heating will be fully on this winter! It was not pleasant visit sadly.
