The Arab Boy is a neighbourhood pub at 289 Upper Richmond Road in Putney. Its traditional name and relaxed interior are paired with a contemporary food and drinks offer, creating a comfortable setting for lunch, dinner, a casual drink or a gathering with friends.
The main menu takes a broad pub approach, moving between starters and sharing plates, burgers, fish dishes and other substantial mains. Familiar combinations make ordering straightforward, while seasonal additions give regular visitors something beyond the permanent favourites.
Sunday brings a dedicated roast service, with the usual accompaniments turning the meal into a natural choice for families and groups. Smaller plates and sides make it possible to share across the table or add to a lighter meal without committing to a full main course.
Draught beer, wine, spirits and alcohol free choices complete the experience. With food served every day and a friendly local atmosphere, The Arab Boy works equally well for an informal midweek supper or a slower weekend visit in Putney.
Address: 289 Upper Richmond Road, London SW15 6SP, England
