The Jolly Gardeners

Disappointing and definitely didn't feel like the food of a MasterChef winner. There was nothing special about the food itself, and the waitress didn't even know who Druv Baker was when we asked her if he was cooking that night.

Great food and service as well as venue and garden. Perfect for a summer evening. Would highly recommend. Aperol and espresso martini also a bonus!

For a restaurant overseen by a master chef finalist it was not to the standard you would expect. Just above average pub food, certainly not gastropub

The food was excellent, very enjoyable flavour combination & quality ingredients. Very friendly environment & great to have such a lovely local pub, we will be going again.

The food was very tasty, but the menu seemed smaller than usual maybe 1 or 2 dishes short. The starters were very tasty and the mains coked well. Service was friendly and attentive.

Wonderful flavours and just the right quantities, sad when it was over! The Staff were very helpful and friendly. We will certainly go again soon.

My wife and I went for a meal on Saturday night, we really liked the informal comfortable feeling in the dinning room. The wine and food was lovely, particularly the whole lemon sole. The service was very attentive topping up our glasses without interrupting our conversation. We'll definitely be back

Very good food and very good service. They have a lovely garden area and I hope to return for lunches there and have them outside when it's sunny.

Great restaurant. The food is exceptional. This is the second time we have eaten at the Jolly Gardeners and every dish we have had has been delicious. Great service too. Highly recommended

We went for Sunday Lunch -23/7. Greeting pretty good but bit of a struggle thereafter. We all had roast beef which was a generous portion of quality meat cooked as requested. It was rather let down by the roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding which were not crispy or hot .Other veg fine. All 3 of us agreed on this. Wine reasonably priced. The beef was £19.95 from memory and thus at the upper end of local pricing. At that price we would need reassurances re potatoes etc before rushing back

we have been many times to the Jolly gardener and so my expectations were reasonably high. I had the sole with sapphire and rosemary potatoes. the Sole was overcooked, the sapphire was bathed in butter, so much so I couldn't eat it and was given an unnecessary amount of potatoes that could have literally fed a family of 4. I was really disappointed.

Excellent friendly & informative service & delicious food - my husband had the beef burger and l had the spicy chicken burger and we shared chips - coleslaw (made with red cabbage) - tomato salad - fennel salad. Could not have had a better lunch time experience on our 26th Wedding Anniversary! Surprised Pub was not very busy on a Thursday lunchtime. Pub was recommended to us by family members. Will go again.

Exceptionally good service, food cooked to perfection, great atmosphere and decent wine list. The place is run well by a dedicated team who pay attention to detail. Nice beer garden - it would be nice to see this separated into "smoking" and "non-smoking" sections, so that those of us who do not smoke can enjoy the spring and summer.

Excellent food, friendly staff with a lovely manner, would recommend this restaurant to all. We had a thoroughly enjoyable experience and will make this a regular occasion.

Went for the first time for Sunday Lunch. The team were welcoming from the start and the food was lovely. Recommend the squid if it is on the menu!!

The food at the gardeners is amazing, friendly service but not too intrusive. The restaurant feels like a pub dining room not too rigid, no table cloths and the bar was buzzing. Great value two/ three course menu wednesday and Thursday. We have been a few times because of the delicious food.

The restaurant has a great atmosphere, attentive but unobtrusive staff, fantastic food & a good wine list. There's a brilliant bar attached & lovely beer garden with heaters.

The food was excellent. Good service and very friendly. The wine list offered a good range. The squid starter was one of the best spicy squid starters I've had.

Positive Service/waitress Food was presented well (ravioli was yummy) Negative Laminated menus Lighting Furniture Lack of atmosphere Price Was an enjoyable evening but the price didn't refelect the quality 5/10

Great friendly and attentive service. The food was excellent & we only had the Tuesday evening menu! Love the atmosphere in the dining room. Will definitely be returning to try the main menu!

Visited with my family. Fantastic burgers and really friendly staff. It was a bit quiet for my visit but this was on a Tuesday lunchtime.

Delicious food, excellent service and lovely atmosphere. This restaurant is a local gem. it was the first time my husband and I had dinner there and we will definitely be back!

We went for the New Years Eve dinner and celebration, and had a fantastic time. Very friendly and helpful team. Amazing food, really creative and original, especially the braised lamb. Great wine. All round a really great evening. The team have transformed JG's since they took it over - well done!

we was invited from a dear friend who told us that he had there the best mussels dish ever.. it was true, amazing food, lovely atmosphere :)

Amazing food - the roast beef was the best roast I have ever had in a pub. Very friendly staff, great Sunday lunch would highly recommend.

Excellent, tender beef and well cooked vegetables. Attentive service and good wine and cheese list. Rather a noisy room but I would highly reccomend the restaurant

Brilliant meal. The food was delicious and for the high quality I felt it was very reasonably priced. will definitely be back. Staff were all very polite and welcoming.

Overall great experience. Had to change my booking slightly when I needed to add more people to my table and found the staff very accommodating when ringing up the day before to arrange this. Service was very good when we were there and food was great. Only criticism was that with the roast chicken there was a bit too much stuffing and not enough chicken. Would, however highly recommend The Jolly Gardeners to other dinners.

Food and service was really good. Went on a Tuesday so wasn't really busy. There was only 6 of us so we could order off the a la carte, but we probably would have ordered off the set Christmas menu anyway and would have liked a Christmas fracker :-) maybe our fault for not specifying it was our girls Xmas meal out!

Really good food. Excellent steak. Would expect more than standard fries (possibly out of a packet?) - triple cooked would have been more appropriate for the fine quality of the meat. Good service. Ok value for the food. Good value on the wine list. Would go back.

Amazing food, friendly staff, lovely atmosphere! Would definitely go back again!

Everything from customer service to the quality of food was outstanding. The staff were attentive and dealt with our requests and notified back to us immediately.

Great food and good service - lack of atmosphere as it was a bit quiet - however it was early in the evening when we ate there.

The pub is lovely kept with a nice garden. We went on a Sunday and found the menu to be disappointing- no bbq available, which on a sunny day is a shame, and the only roast option was beef, which on a Sunday is a shame. My beef roast was lovely, the sides and gravy yummy. My partner had a pork belly which, when arrived, my other friend enquired whether he was on a diet... We were given no dessert menu, so overall left hungry and £95 lighted for 2 roasts, 1 pork belly, 4 beers and 2 coffees.

Lovely roast beef Sunday lunch, with nice crunchy Yorkshire pudding and tender beef. The starter of a modern version of coronation chicken was also very tasty.

Haven't been to the Jolly Gardeners for a while but so glad we went back. Best Sunday lunch I have eaten in a long time. The beef was melt in the mouth delicious. Staff really nice,friendly and helpful.Will be going back again soon.

Lovely, friendly pub the staff were really helpful and the food was great. We had the roast beefor, it was delicious and the Yorkshire puddings were amazing!

The service wasn't up to scratch for a restaurant with a masterchef name attached. We were surprised to find there weren't any starters offered for a Saturday lunch, nice for a simple meal but nothing more. Other than the a la carte meal it really is just pub grub.

The service was fine, the choice of food was a bit limited, but what we chose was nice. The decor and ambience was somewhat lacking.

Small menu but all the dishes we tried were well executed. Sticky toffee pudding among the best ever tasted - and we are experts. Staff very friendly and efficient and decor pleasant. Outside area looks promising for summer eating al fresco.

We both had ravioli to start and the lamb. I don't think I've ever tasted anything so delicious. both courses. but the lamb was the best lamb I've ever eaten. Awful to say, but driving past baby lambs over the weekend, It was all I could think about!!! Also a bottle of Prosecco, which was a very good price and wonderful....

Really like this great local eatery. Disappointed tonight with excessively salty food. But the staff are always polite and friendly and I ordered an alternative dish which was delicious. Buzzy atmosphere and great service.

Great tasting, great looking food and friendly staff. We were a party of 3 and enjoyed all of our dishes, we will definitely be back.

Food is excellent , some of the staff members are a bit on the brusque side (whilst other were lovely) , perhaps sth to work on

A return visit to this gastropub based on previous experience. Excellent food and service as good as many more expensive city centre restaurants. Highly recommended

Barbecue night at this fabulous local left nothing off the menu. Beef ribs, pork ribs, chicken wings, pulled pork, burgers and Shashlick. We shared the lot and enjoyed it all, feast for our tastebuds .

Great friendly staff and excellent food, really efficient service would definitely return again. Looking forward to trying out the evening menu as we had lunch there.

The Jolly Gardeners is a great pub - our local in Earlsfield. This was the first time we've eaten there and I couldn't recommend it highly enough - it's a different class from even some of the best 'pub food' in the area - this is proper, fresh ingredients, unique recipes, beautifully presented and not overloaded with carbs. They even managed to cater for my vegan sister. The service is always excellent - with staff always on hand to top up your drinks.

Amazing food and great service! Im still full from last night! Would definitely recommend. Already have!! Like the atmosphere as its split from the pub.

Best Food I have ever had. Book a table and you won't be disappointed. Nicely served dishes, full of flavour and with generous portion. Highly recommended!!!
