A new pub will open its doors in Clapham Old Town this month, and it’s launching with a sizable opening offer.
The Apollo Arms is the latest venture by the Lunar Pub Co, the same team that created popular neighbourhood spots The Hunter’s Moon in Kensington and Ganymede in Belgravia.
The pub, tipped to be a ‘quintessential English countryside pub’, will open on May 21 with a soft launch that gets you 50 per cent off food from May 21-27.

Th Apollo Arms has been created with all the good bits of British pubs in mind, and comes with cosy corners, hidden nooks as well as elegant spaces for drinking and dining with family and friends.
Interiors evoke countryside charm with its antiques furniture and vintage-style pendant lighting.
It also has a spacious garden terrace for when the weather warms up.
Foodwise, expect modern British food done well. Owner Chef Director Oliver Marlowe and Head Chef David Halewood (Ex The Coach, Clerkenwell) will work together on the lunch and dinner menu that will change daily. There will also be an extensive back snack menu too, as well as brunch and Sunday lunch for the weekends.
Expect dishes such as tuna sashimi with whipped avocado; Fowley mussels with ‘nduja and cider sauce, leeks, fennel and Morteau sausage; braised featherblade with truffle mayo and triple cooked truffle and parmesan chips; and a classic baked Alaska.
