Rifleman Inn, Epsomback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
CLOSED. Lunchtime today - and I am a regular. No notice. Sad.

Hmm, popped in for a quick one a couple of Sundays ago. Decor was basic, (nothing wrong with that) and was greeted by a couple dogs (canines) in the bar that appeared to represent the entertainment. Anyway, had an IPA but the quality was very, very poor, (think the correct term is "off"). As we were literally only staying for one, I drank about half of it and left the rest. If you want a decent pint, can I suggest the Vestry over the road Shame really, as I liked the sound of some of the earlier reviews.

I did tolerate having the Chelsea memorabilia behind the bar!
All in all a no nonsence boozer which has 3 Tvs switched onto 3 different sports channels at the same time (what to watch first?) and beer at decent prices.

visited this pub on boxing day and was made feel so welcome by a young barman(robbie)who told me the history of this small ,warm pub.ale was well priced and when asked for food was served the nicest sandwich -on the house!such service is very heartening and my wife and i had a very nice 2 hours there. tvs had different programs on so everyones taste was satisfied.will return when in area again.

I love this pub myself. It has got the feel of a real old school boozer, where the same faces sit in the same seats day in day out - that's you too Richard Baxter!!
Harry is indeed a leg end. He keeps the pub running smoothly, keeps the pipes clean and the beer fresh, and always helps out Lanes, by employing some former Lanes totty behind the bar - good work!!
If you are expecting a gastro pub, or sanitised bar, then epsom has plenty of other places you'll be welcome. However, if you want a good pint, in honest, friendly company, then the Rifleman (or just simply 'Harry's' is your place!!)

Great little boozer in Epsom with a friendly crowd always in there.. Harry the landlord is a top bloke as well, despaie being a Chelsea fan...
They have a big screen and Sky in there now as well....

If you try to ignore the Chelsea memorabilia behind the bar you'll find an unspoilt, quiet, if very small, local boozer.
Unpretentious, unthreatening, not unpleasant. But not much to it.
Not bad. Not brilliant either.

A pub for MASSIVE Blues fans. As you go in there is a shrine behind the bar of all your current Chelsea favs, such as Gavin Peacock, Mark Stein and Dmitri Kharine. Why is the horseracing still on?

I enjoyed the crack in here, a few funny stories and a nice pint!

Great pub for funny men and gambloholics. Sky Sports available, but refuse to show any sport but Horseracing. Collections of cigarette cards are displayed in the toilets.
