I went there with my brother on a Monday lunchtime, there were very few people at that time.
I haven't been in the Tuns since I watched the Rugby World Cup final in 2003 with a bunch of friends.
There have been some dramatic changes...since then, but all seem to the good.
I found it very comfortable and nice and clean, my brother and me had a good laugh reminiscing about how we used to hang out there in the '60's.
The guy behind the bar (possibly the landlord) was very friendly and took our orders with the minimum of fuss.
I had scampi and chips, my brother the chilli. I was impressed by my chips, they looked hand cut and were nice and thick and the scampi were crisp, firm and piping hot. My brother enjoyed the chilli and really liked the sour cream dip. My only gripe is that his sour cream came in a pot, whereas the tartare sauce I wanted came in sachets.
After our food we had a wander around looking at the photo's of Sutton of old. We're old enough to remember some of them, particularly the original parade.
Before we left we both used the toilet and the mens at least was very clean. I can't comment on the ladies obviously.
Based on our visit I'd be happy to recommend this pub to anyone. It has a fascinating history and you can read about it on the pubs website. It's the wrong end of Sutton for me, but if I'm ever up that end I'll make a point of popping in, even if it's only for a pintMore
