The food was great, although not a lot of vegetarian options, which isn’t ideal. But the smoked mushrooms curry was delicious and the roasted cabbage the best I ever had! The sandwich (meat) and Mac and cheese were also quite good and overall it was a good experience - we walked in without a booking and were sat immediately! Only downside, we ordered a beer that was really odd (flat, irony, it seemed very off) and asked to change it and we were charged for it as the bartender said it was its regular taste - if you know you have something that odd on your menu maybe let people know!

Traditional old British pub, full of local patrons on Sunday afternoon. The vibe was nice, warm and cozy, with bursts of laughter at times. First time in a pub, seems like you need to find a seat. Waitress/server was a bit cold and poker faced when I politely asked about seating. The bartenders were more welcoming and helpful, giving me a sip to try a recommendation of his before ordering the beer. Love the Golden George beer, light and fruity. They accept both cash and card.

We stopped by for a few drinks. Beautiful place. Well maintained. I have not been here for years. Loved the quirkiness of this old coaching inn, the wooden beams, the galley restaurant upstairs. Narrow staircase. Good beers. We will be back for dinner next time.

Built in 1864 as a large hotel, the old George Tavern welcomed guests from all walks of life to London’s Isle of dogs. And despite it being remodeled in 1932, The George of today is no different. As one of the few remaining pubs on the Island. There are delicious food, cask and craft ales, premium and spirits, fine wines and heated beer garden. The steak and caramelized onion sandwich with cheese sauce, served with rich beef gravy, is a truly fantastic and delicious menu option. I absolutely love it. Every bite is exquisite, with tender and flavorful beef. The atmosphere inside is as cozy as being at home, and the potato chips are also excellent.

Great atmosphere in an historic pub. Need better hoppy IPA beer. Food menu looks good

Had Afternoon Tea with cocktail option (£49) at Roast. It was a little difficult to find as it is in the middle of Borough Market, surrounded by stalls - my friend was wandering around for a bit. The venue is extremely pretty, with decorative tables and they even ironed the table cloths. The big windows let it in lots of light, and the flower arrangements enhanced the warm, cosy feel of the restaurant. The combination of sweet and savoury was perfect for us, as I personally prefer a more savoury selection. Everything was extremely well made, mouthwatering and delicious. The staff were courteous and helpful I asked if I could change out my tea for coffee, and, as I have a nut intolerance, I needed to replace the walnut cake with another pastry. The gentleman serving us said this was no problem. However, my only complaint, which took the shine of my experience is that upon checking the bill when I got home, I found I had been charged an additional £9 on top of the £49 afternoon tea cost!!! Could this have been for the changes I made? If so, it seems very punitive, and we were not informed about the increase. I had initially thought the extra cost was the service charge, but it wasn't. We were possibly going to return for a Sunday lunch, but I would ensure I checked every facet of the bill before paying/leaving.

Nice selection of food although could have done with another coffee, had it in place of tea. Scones came after the main selection. Very good! Would have been nice to have a table overlooking the market, felt a bit crammed, although restaurant wasn't busy. Keep an eye on the 15% service charge that is added.

The Big Ben cocktail was fantastic. Food came very quick. Service was amazing. Stored our belongings whilst we went and looked around the market. Great view from our seats looking over the market. The best roast I’ve had, they cooked the beef to just how you wanted it. Would highly recommend and would return if we travel to London again.

It was my first time visiting, found this place from the Michelin guide. Easy to locate and fantastic first impression from the host till my table. Lovely ambience and professional service throughout. My favourite is they offer great market menu catering first timer like me; An extensive wine and fortified wine selections. Well priced appropriate portion from appetiser till dessert. One of the best restaurant I ever had in London. The detailed service that I love about is the offering coatroom service. I will definitely back here again!

What a great spot for traditional British roast. The Yorkshire pudding was excellent and the beef was tasty and tender. The cocktails were also quite delicious. It’s definitely not a Sunday night at the pub and far more upscale. And such a great location right in the borough market.

Delicious food, especially the small sausage platter, with the sauerkraut. Very friendly service. We enjoyed the quiet afternoon atmosphere, before the evening rush, and after the crowds of Borough Market.
Andrew Orme - a week ago

Staff weren't rude... Just not friendly or welcoming and definitely no smiles - certainly don't know what was going on with them tonight. I hope they're OK. The food was average to say the least. A schnitzel that needed full force to cut through, it was thick and over seasoned. Will say that the portions are generous but there's no love in that there food; it was fodder. The drinks went down well. Shame but we won't be returning.

We went on a Friday evening, and managed to catch the tail end of the Christmas parties and the lull before the lads groups came out. We had jaeger schnitzel and roast pork, both were good for the price. I preferred the pork as the schnitzel was slightly overcooked. Service was reasonable for a busy day. Big queue, but it moved quickly as groups went to the bar. The food was relatively slow to come out (we separately ordered a pretzel, which was also slow to arrive). I take this as a sign of it being freshly prepared, so a very good thing. I felt the food fairly good, for German food. Beer was good too, a standard offering (Paulaner).

Huge place that feels like it predominantly wants to be a place for drunk groups. Still decent interiors and a genuine feel to it. An English pub that does its job well if not great. Beer selection is good, including some casks
Steinar Johansen - a week ago

A proper British pub near London Bridge that also serves food. I got 2 coronas for £12.80. The atmosphere was good and the pub was packed probably due to the location right near London Bridge and the London station and also a short walk to borough market and the shard.

This is the best pub/ tavern I've visited in London so far. List of things that have been great: cozy and inviting location, friendly but unobtrusive service, fair prices, large selection of tasty pies, and of course the beer. ;-) I guess that's worth a try!

Bustling pub. Pretty decor. Well located. Would go again. £6.95 for a pint of cider. The coolest thing about the way it was decorated was the mini decorative safes that are sort of built in to the floor/wall.

A short walk from London bridge station (literally straight up the road, easy) you'll find this beautiful pub. Prices as expected in central London. Food was good, typical fancy pub grub served on a wooden chopping board, portions are small, not great for vegans/veggies. Let's focus on the positives - stunning pub with lots of character, great atmosphere and location. Defo worth a pit stop for a pint if you're in the area.

Right around the entrance of Borough market. This tapas place is busy on a weekend night. However, the waiting time was very manageable. we had a drik at the bar, the inside table was ready. everything we tried was delicious. Good service too.

Exceptional meal. I’ve been here before so I knew it would be good but they surpassed themselves last night. We walked in without a booking (not recommended) but only had to wait ten minutes at the bar before we got a seat. Our waitress was helpful and efficient. Even when my colleague spilt sauce down his shirt and she produced spray and clothes to help ease the staining. The food was immense. The chorizo and iberico stood out but the whole thing was delicious. If you like tapas you can’t go wrong. We also had gambas (prawns), squid, chicken, potato bravas and padrons. We drank beer and ate mainly in silence because the food was so good. Just the sounds of enjoyment as we tasted mouthful after mouthful of tasty tapas. Highly recommend. I’ve been before and will go again. 5/5 last night. Honestly.

Food is very authentic - I ordered the prawns, tomato bread and croquettes. It was all excellent, but the croquettes were the winning dish! The atmosphere is lovely, warm lighting and good music. Service is good, but quite slow. Will be back!
Amy Skinner - 4 months ago

Staff were friendly but they forgot 2 things we ordered. It's a tapas restaurant so it should be pretty common that people order many dishes but we needed to ask twice unfortunately. It'll be better if the waiter can ask us if everything is okay so we don't need to frustrate to call someone. Food was good but not exceptional.
Sara - 2 months ago

Lovely atmosphere unfortunately food wasn't as great! We ordered fish and liver and paid £18 for tiny plate. Bit overpriced! It was 2 of us and food came 20 min apart. Waiter was saying that is different food and cooking time is differ. Lady with friends who came after us ordered same fish and was served first. Little bit disappointed.

Lovely food, however the waiter kept getting our order wrong as he tried to remember it rather than write it down each time. Messed up our drinks order several times, he was always apologetic however it did become annoying. Party of seven and the bill was over £300, so rather pricey too. Food was excellent though.

We went out for a Christmas meal together and I really loved the food , ribs were tasty and my partner loved the desserts as she looks at that first. Was a really busy night, packed so I would book ahead if you want to be safe. Will go back and try the burgers as I’m not a pizza fan.

We wanted to visit a restaurant after a theatre play. We made sure this restaurant's closing time was 23:30 so we booked. The restaurant wasn't busy but the toilet was pretty dirty. So no wonder we saw a mouse/rat running around the floor. It was really disgusting to see. We ordered steaks for medium rare, my partner's one was fine but mine was blue/rare so couldn't eat. I had to ask to cook more eventually but no apology. The bearnaise sauce wasn't great. The salad looked fancy but they don't think of the customer, they just tear the lettuce in big chunky pieces so you have to cut the lettuce on the plate, I've never had such a salad. At 23:00 we were asked to leave as they closed, I guess there wasn't other customers so they decided to close earlier. We asked the closing time on the booking besides it took time for re-cooking the steak by their mistake but we were forced to leave. It was awful. My partner planned the night for us so I don't wanna complain but I don't think we will visit here again.

This was the second time I visited this restaurant and its still a great place to eat at. The venue is so airy open and bright, Wonderful for a sunny afternoon lunch. The decor is modern and chic. It has a French bistro sort of vibe even though its a steakhouse. The food was great. Very tasty and well presented. The staff are nice and friendly. Initially they were attentive and came over regularly but this started to slip during our visit. We didn't have 1 specific staff member attending to us, which was a little annoying. 1 server (who may have been the manager) was really good and sounded like they knew their stuff redeemed them for a while. It's a nice place and I would still visit again.

After a visit to BAO in Borough Market, we found ourselves drawn to the inviting atmosphere of Anchor, a quintessential British pub known for its fish and chips and Sunday roast. Ready to climb a few stairs, we entered the self-seating establishment, greeted by a bustling ambiance and a great selection of beers on tap and bottled. As we perused the menu, we couldn't help but feel that it could benefit from a bit of streamlining, focusing on staple items to ensure consistency and quality. Nevertheless, we opted for the iconic fish and chips, a classic choice that certainly lived up to its reputation. While the fish and chips were a hit, the same couldn't be said for the steak sandwich on ciabatta bread. Priced at £10, it fell short of expectations, lacking flavor and tenderness. It highlighted the importance of refining the menu to showcase Anchor's standout dishes. Despite the culinary misstep, the overall experience was enjoyable. The historic building and cool location added to the charm of the visit, leaving us intrigued enough to consider giving Anchor another chance in the future. In summary, Anchor offers a lively atmosphere, a great beer selection, and iconic British dishes like fish and chips. However, inconsistencies in menu offerings suggest room for improvement. With some refinement and focus on staple items, Anchor has the potential to elevate its dining experience. For now, it earns a modest 3 out of 5 stars, with the hope of a more satisfying experience upon our return.

I stopped in for a quick dinner while walking around London. Staff was super kind, my fish and chips were so good and paired great with a beer. Great location.
Vanessa - 2 weeks ago

It was quite a nice discovery! We went there on a Saturday evening, and we had no trouble finding a table. We got two cider and fish n chips (totally recommend it, it’s super nice and we had one and it’s enough fir two people) However we didn’t get any information about the closing part of the first floor at 10.30pm, we only had one member of the staff telling us to go downstairs directly. Fortunately we had time to eat our plate beforehand, otherwise it would have been complicated. Would totally recommend! The location is perfect.

A fine historic pub popular with tourists at which you can normally get a table. Ordered several food items from the sides/sharers and most arrived cold or lukewarm, although were replaced quickly when we pointed it out. It was around £7.30 for a Peroni which is fine for the location, but less fine when it's served in an unbranded generic pint glass. Service, food and atmosphere is all a bit Wetherspoony which is absolutely fine if you're expecting that sort of thing.
Stanley Dunthorne - a month ago

Ordered the fish and chips which were amazing! One of the best I have had in London 😀 Also got Chicken Kyiv was pretty good but very oily. Do grab some beer with it, helps! The staff is friendly and you can request beer tasting before purchase. Def worth a try! Fun atmosphere by the waterfront and chill vibes, grab a table under an umbrella especially to take cover from the London rains. Close to Shakespeare Theatre 🎭.

The menu at The Mug House is a celebration of classic British fare, with hearty dishes like bangers and mash, roast beef, and fish and chips gracing the pages. Whether you're looking for a cosy corner to curl up with a good book, a lively atmosphere for drinks with friends, or a hearty meal, The Mug House has something for everyone. It's the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of London and unwind in a truly unique and historic setting.

We rented the whole venue for an event and couldn't be happier with the service we received. Throughout the planning and the night itself, all the staff we came into contact with went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. Their hospitality, knowledge and friendliness made our party all the better. The catering was great and the venue very accomodating to our band and decorations etc..5* all the way.

Hidden away under the road onto London Bridge this is an pub with character in it's style and selection of drinks. One of only a few places that you can get Davy's celebrated old wallop, by the pint or a 4 pints jug. The lighting and vaulted ceilings make it very atmospheric. It's position, just off the beaten track, keeps it not too busy at lunchtime making the service excellent.
Ron Ron - a month ago

A pub for pub people. A great little tucked away drinking hole under the inimitable London Bridge. Surprisingly friendly patrons for a central London boozer, everyone is happy to raise a glass and smiles come easy. Some might find it a little rustic with uneven floors and a couple of door says to duck through, but it all adds to the authentic charm of the place. Pull up a chair, enjoy a local pint, and witness the history around you.
Ben Golding - a month ago

Fantastic hidden pub / wine bar. I didn’t realise when I booked that it was a Davy’s chain. It has all the perks of a unique venue, with the extensive food and wine list of a Davy’s. I also saw traditional pewter tankers being used for some of the ales. The place is vast, a snug casual bar area at the front that then extends into a dining area at the back. There’s a very cute room tucked away that you can book for a group of five or six. Even with us being hidden away, service was attentive.
