The Spencer Arms is a neighbourhood pub at 237 Lower Richmond Road in Putney. Its relaxed bar and dining areas welcome families and dogs, combining the easy character of a local with kitchen hours that cover lunch and dinner throughout the week.
The food follows a seasonal British pub style, mixing familiar favourites with changing starters and mains. Produce led salads, meat and fish dishes give regular customers variety while preserving the straightforward generosity expected from a pub meal.
Sunday roasts are an important part of the week, bringing together roasted meat or a vegetarian centrepiece with vegetables, potatoes, gravy and traditional accompaniments. Desserts provide a natural finish for guests settling in for a slower weekend lunch.
Beer, wine and cocktails support shorter drinks visits as well as full meals, and private hire is available for groups. The Spencer Arms is best for dependable cooking and a comfortable local atmosphere rather than a formal restaurant experience.
Address: 237 Lower Richmond Road, Putney, London SW15 1HJ, England
