The Bobbin

Excellent food. Pub classics with an Italian twist (Italian managed). The sausage ragu is a must try. Nice service and lovely garden as well. Go regularly and always a nice meal.

Popped in for dinner a couple of times, I enjoyed the menu. I'll definitely return at some point in the future.

Average pub food, quite overpriced. Asked for a Yorkshire pudding with roast pork and was refused. Full of typical Clapham young professionals who all look identical.

Sitting somewhere between a pub that does food and a gastropub, The Bobbin provides good food in a pub atmosphere serving a selection of good local ales alongside others from further afield. The starters (6-12) were generous, well cooked and tasty as were the mains. A good range of main courses with pasta dishes (17.50) and a range of crowd pleasers, we went for the sea bream (22.50) and the rib-eye steak (29), both were well cooked but there were service issues - read on. The wine list was a bit pricey but provided a good selection in the 25 - 40 range. The staff were very friendly and helpful, but the overall experience was let down by service problems. The service itself felt very rushed. No sooner had we finished our starter when someone came and offered us dessert menus. Later, we still had food on one plate when they started to clear away our mains. We ordered the steak with the sauce on the side, it arrived poured over the meat so it had to go back. There was an inevitable delay but no account was taken of this, so one of us had finished their main course before the other's had even arrived! With a bit more care on the service side, The Bobbin could be very good.
