I had lunch here with my mother prior to visiting the Design and Textiles museum. We loved this historical coaching inn, it's like stepping back 200 years. The building is charming and the food is excellent and very reasonably priced. The food was served promptly too. We went on a Saturday and the bar and courtyard areas were pretty busy and there were some football fans around, but we had a reservation for the dining room which was lovely and quiet and had views out to the courtyard. It was fully booked on the day though so book in advance.

Just a short walk from London Bridge Station. This 1867 pub has great charm with outside seating and large screen to watch six nations. Great little stop off and friendly atmosphere. Service was abit slow but it was extremely busy so if you dont mind abit of a wait for your drinks I would recommend a visit.

The George Inn is one of London’s most charming and historic pubs. Located in Southwark, this beautifully preserved coaching inn dates back centuries and offers a truly authentic British atmosphere.
The architecture is stunning, with its traditional wooden galleries and courtyard that instantly transport you back in time. It’s a rare opportunity to experience a piece of London’s history while enjoying a relaxed and welcoming pub setting.
Inside, the atmosphere is warm and cozy, with wooden beams, classic décor, and a lively yet comfortable vibe. It’s the perfect place to enjoy a traditional pint of ale or classic British pub food.
The staff is friendly and efficient, creating a welcoming environment for both locals and visitors. Whether you’re stopping by after exploring nearby Borough Market or just looking for a historic place to unwind, The George Inn delivers a memorable experience.
A true London classic — historic, atmospheric, and full of character. Highly recommended

A great pub! Lots of choices for beer. We had Sunday roast (pork) and were not disappointed. Nice atmosphere sitting out in courtyard.

Had an absolute blast here! The team
accommodated us and even arranged the private function room for our workplace party despite the short notice. The service was great, the food was delicious,and it didn’t break the bank.
Our group had an incredible time — played silly games, showed off our crazy dance moves, and just had such a great time overall. We’ll definitely be coming back for future events. Highly recommend — 10/10 vibes!

A fabulous traditional Sunday roast every day of the week, and the best one I have ever had, with perfect Yorkshire puddings, and tender slices of beef. There are enough other dishes to give a range of options, traditional and innovative. The puddings are to die for too, including sticky toffee pudding and Eton mess. Exceptional, friendly, professional, attentive service. A beautiful room with a grand, historic window salvaged from Covent Garden. They even noticed it was a birthday for our guest, and offered a discrete celebratory extra. Thank you for such a memorable experience. We will most certainly be back.

Took a group of friends visiting London to try beef Wellington. It did not disappoint. The meat was tender and melted in your mouth and it's so much better than the one we had the next day at high tea at Fortnum & Mason. Would also recommend the oysters.

If you are looking for an incredible dinner, a great atmosphere, amazing decorations to get you into the Xmas feeling... Look no further! Hubby and I had a lovely dinner. Service was great all night. Views were amazing, food was incredible, the roast turkey with all of the trimmings was superb and to be honest, it will be so hard to make a better one at Xmas. I also had a Xmas cocktail called Santa's present and received a "little" gift from Santa (and Roast) that my main course was on the house, which was such a lovely surprise and left us speechless :) overall expensive as you expect from a top quality restaurant in an amazing location, but top quality, so I feel I can only recommend it. Thank you so much for making our evening so special. Xmas decorations are incredible!

We visited Roast in Borough Market for their special Halloween Afternoon Tea, and it was such a lovely experience! The atmosphere was elegant but warm, with great views over the market and just the right seasonal touch in the décor — festive without being over the top.
The Halloween theme was really well thought out — from the spooky little pastries to the creative presentation. Everything looked beautiful and tasted even better. The sandwiches were fresh and perfectly balanced, and the black, spooky scones came out warm with plenty of clotted cream and jam. The themed desserts were both fun and delicious — especially the chocolate spider and pumpkin tart!
Service was friendly, always with a smile, polite and attentive without being intrusive, and the whole experience felt special and relaxed. It’s a great twist on a classic afternoon tea, and perfect for the season.
Would definitely recommend it if you’re looking for something festive and quintessentially London in the heart of Borough Market. 👻🎃☕

I have been to Roast several times for afternoon tea and have always loved my experience. Staff is so kind and always makes the experience special. The food is excellent and beautiful, the teas are lovely, and the atmosphere is unmatched. It's a great way to enjoy borough market without the chaos the the crowds and cues. I always bring family and friends who visit London to Roast for an afternoon tea experience.

Their fish and chips are delicious. The vibes in this establishment is great. The only thing which they can improve is service at the table with drinks. When you are by yourself, you have to leave your personal items to order a drink at the bar. This bar has an excellent location near the London bridge and borrows market.

It was perfect choice for my last Friday evening in London! The vibe here is absolutely buzzing — loud, crowded, and full of life. Super friendly staff and delicious fish and chips. Definitely will visit again!

Excellent Excellent Excellent from start to finish. Greeted at the door by the doorman then immediately met by waiting staff and shown to a table. We hadn't pre booked, service exceptional. Menu choices great and varied. Food delicious and not too expensive. Good soft drink choice and overall wine choices too. A really enjoyable mid week meal.

The male bartender was incredibly nice and funny, which made the experience even better. Service was excellent, and the drinks were great. The food menu was small, but everything came out well. It was a bit overpriced, but still a solid stop for a travel day.

Nice from start to finish.
We had no reservation and were still accommodated for a table of three.
Our Spanish friend in the group wanted to come here because she had heard good things, and it was such lovely food and service.
Relaxed and casual atmosphere and interior.
We ate quite a lot and liked everything.
The red Sangria was delicious, too.

The service, the location and the ambience was really good. Had mixed feelings about the food. The Pan Con Tomate was delicious, the croquettes were alright (it's a skip for me). The heuvos rotos had some issues the potatoes, some were crisp as a chip and some were nicely done, unevenly salty which made it hard to eat. Definitely pricey.

Incredibly solid Tapas place. Packed when we arrived but the stellar crew managed to still get us a table in about 20 minutes. Service was A+, food was A+. Had some cocktails which were also top notch. Wine with dinner. Overall would return in a heartbeat. The vibe and the crowd are peak. All the greatest hits are available from Spains grand cuisine of tapas culture. You wont be disappointed.
Salud!

A very good selection of tapas, we tried a dozen or so and each one was sumptuous, could eat the chicharrones paired with repollo con crema de ajo blanco on repeat. Washed down with a jug of sangria which paired perfectly. For a potential tourist hotspot trap, the food and service exceeded expectations.
TheFacelessWanderer - 2 months ago
Very few places come close to this.
White Rioja is out of this world. I now like prawns. The chicken thigh is the most ridiculous tasting greatness I have had. Genuinely cannot fault anything here.
Georgina served us and recommended dishes, was super friendly and helpful. Made the experience perfect.
Clean plates and we ordered loads.
Muy bien.

We had dinner at Borough Market last night. In my opinion, it's one of the best restaurants I've seen in London. There were six of us, and we ordered steak, a cheese plate, soup, dessert, and fish with house wine. Everything was fantastic. The staff were also incredibly attentive, polite, and helpful. The atmosphere was wonderful in every way. (Don't let the owners hear this, but the prices are quite reasonable considering the setting, presentation, and service!) Many thanks to the staff, especially the Serbian-born employee who took care of us...

I visited Black & Blue on 14 December 2025 for a late lunch at approximately 3:00 PM while on holiday. I would like to begin by acknowledging the lady who initially escorted us to our table. She was warm, friendly, enthusiastic, and an absolute sweetheart. Her welcoming demeanor gave us a very positive first impression.
Unfortunately, the rest of our dining experience was deeply disappointing due to both service and food quality.
When we requested additional water and ketchup, another waitress attended to us and appeared visibly reluctant. She did not speak a single word despite our polite request, maintained a stoic expression, and returned by forcefully placing the water jug on the table rather than setting it down courteously. She also brought only one small container of ketchup, which was clearly insufficient for three people with a substantial portion of chips remaining.
When we calmly stated, “This isn’t enough,” she walked away without acknowledgment and later returned with six ketchup containers in what felt like a deliberately excessive and sarcastic response. The interaction made us feel disrespected and uncomfortable. What made this more unsettling was observing the same waitress being cheerful, smiling, and exceptionally friendly while serving other tables.
As the only Asian guests in the restaurant at the time, we could not help but feel disregarded and question whether this treatment may have been influenced by bias. While we cannot state this definitively, the contrast in behavior was difficult to ignore and left us feeling deeply uneasy.
Additionally, the food itself was unacceptable. We ordered our steak medium-well, but it arrived well done and heavily charred, with an overpowering burnt taste that was genuinely nauseating. The steak was unpleasant to eat and far below the standard one would expect, particularly from a restaurant known for steak.
While the main courses were heavily disappointing, I would like to note that the desserts were exceptional. They were well-prepared, flavorful, and thoroughly enjoyable, standing in stark contrast to the mains. Had the quality of the food and service been consistent with the desserts, our overall experience would have been far more positive.
It is truly unfortunate that what should have been an enjoyable holiday meal was marred by such poor service and food quality. While we greatly appreciated the kindness of the hostess who first welcomed us, the behavior of one server and the substandard meal ultimately made our experience extremely dissatisfactory, especially considering the great reviews.
I hope management takes this feedback seriously, as no guest should ever feel dismissed, disrespected, or uncomfortable while dining.

I had a delicious steak and a great dining experience overall. The food was cooked perfectly and full of flavour. Special thanks to Vaida for the excellent service – she was friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. I would definitely come back again.

Food: We ordered the pork baby back ribs and the steak. The ribs were a bit dry and not as tender as expected, though the accompanying sauce had a nice flavor. Unfortunately, the steak lacked seasoning and didn’t taste particularly fresh.
Service: Waitresses are accommodating so I am rating 5.
Atmosphere is quite nice but could be better so I am rating 4.
Kai Barroga - 11 months ago
Good food, not to expensive, a service charge of 12.5% is added on the final bill amount. This was however no suprise for us since it was on the menu.

This review is so overdue! My husband and I visited London in May 2025, and during our stay we were lucky enough to discover this absolute gem of a pub. We ended up coming back almost every evening for dinner because everything about the place was just perfect.
The food was consistently delicious—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. But what truly made our visits memorable was the outstanding service. A special thank you to Wojtek, the manager, who was warm, welcoming, and wonderful to chat with. And to Lee, who was training as a new waiter at the time—his service was excellent, attentive, and genuinely kind.
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to unwind after long days exploring the city. Highly recommend to anyone visiting London!
Monika Paskal - 3 months ago
This pub has a nice atmosphere and old world charm, the only let down was the food. I had the pie and mash and the mash was a disaster, had a glue like texture from being over processed. The wedge of cabbage as a side was average at best. My wife had the steak ciabatta and it was very average. Overall would recommend for drinks but not for food.

A Cozy Old Pub by the Thames
This pub has such a charming, traditional atmosphere — super cozy and full of character. As tourists from Amsterdam, we really enjoyed the great beer and delicious food. The people here made us feel so welcome, and we had a good laugh with the regulars at the bar. This visit was truly one of the highlights of our trip to London! 🍻🇬🇧

Always a must-visit whenever I’m in London. Hands down, some of the best meat pies in the city. The pub is especially cozy this time of year, beautifully decorated with festive holiday touches that make it even more inviting. Friendly staff, delicious food, and a classic London pub atmosphere that never disappoints.

We loved this pub. So close to Shakespeare's Globe and with a wonderful view of the Thames. We ended up going there for drinks twice and for dinner once. The steak and ale pie and the sticky toffee pudding were so good.

Really lovely pub tucked under the London Bridge.
The food and wine list is fantastic and great value for the pricing. I had the bangers and mash paired with the French Grenache/Syrah and the British cheese plate for desert with the Pinot noir. Highly recommend both plates. The Grenache blend was lovely and paired well; the Pinot Noir was nice but a bit too sweet for my taste.
Service was good but the fellow seemed stretched thin, could have used an extra server. The atmosphere of the main old pub area is fantastic, grab a seat there if you can. The back dining room area is nice too but lacks the old world charm.
Overall, I definitely recommend this spot for some quality food and wine in London that won’t break the bank.

We came here as part of a food tour. Had a drink and some of their sticky pudding. The pudding was delicious. Staff were great. It seemed very quiet though, not a lot of customers.

Stumbled across this place because I needed a meeting point for some family members who were from out of town. It's a great little pub that is an unassuming hole in the wall. The interior is cosy and fun, and there's an ok beer selection. The vibe was very chilled in there which was needed to hide from the busy streets of Borough Market.

Such a lovely underground pub. It’s unspoken about, but deserves all the love it can get. Please ask for the cider and sticky toffee pudding while you’re here, and you won’t be disappointed. Absolutely stunning and aesthetic pub that my family and I have frequented for our time here. Such lovely staff and wonderful service. Please please please give this place the chance it deserves!

Had a really wonderful time at Mug House! We were a large group on a Friday night with people arriving at different times and the team were so warm and welcoming, I really appreciated it! A gorgeous, cozy spot to chase away January blues with great food and drink. Many thanks again to the terrific team!

Everything we ate was really tasty. Nice location and a really chill rustic vibe inside the hotel.
My only criticism would be the wood fired plates - some of them I think are too expensive for what you get - the monkfish for example was really tasty, but for £45 you really don’t get much meat on the fish.
Only other thing would be the plates come out when they’re ready which to be fair we were told about this, however some of the sides/small plates we got to pair with one of the main dishes eg. Steak and the potatos, but they came 20 minutes apart which was a little frustrating.
Other than that it was really tasty.
Pizza was 10/10, lamb steak was delicious and the bavette steak was really good.

Despite being located in one of the most touristy parts of London, Elliot’s genuinely delivers. The food is excellent and thoughtfully cooked, and they have an impressive selection of natural wines to match. From the snacks, especially the Isle of Mull cheese puff, to the small plates like the lion’s mane mushroom, everything was spot on. The wood-grilled Yorkshire venison chop was absolutely outstanding. A real standout restaurant that’s well worth visiting.

Busy popular restaurant in prime location Borough Market. Food was great, with many varied options and good wines. A table on the street in summer is nice to observe the activity outside, or inside counter and table seating for a bustling environment and a friendly team.
Seasonal dishes with fresh ingredients, can’t fault the food quality at all. Ideal for a couple or small group.
Matt O'Neill - 5 months ago
Taken here by my date and the food was amazing. We walked in during Sunday lunch and they had plenty of tables. Definitely a hidden gem! The food we ordered was very flavoursome and the seafood tasted really fresh. He recommended to save some of the crust from the pizza to Dip it in the monk fish sauce. Highly recommend and would come back!

CUTE DATE NIGHT BABY! Without Googling it, I couldn’t quite tell you what cuisine this place is aiming for, though the presence of a small ragu dish hints at Italian. Either way, it’s a beautiful restaurant that mixes larger grilled plates, plenty of fish, and a strong range of small plates.
Most of the smaller dishes are cold and not the best value, but the quality is there.
The whole space feels calm and elegant, a nice little escape from the bustle of Borough Market just outside. Staff were friendly and the atmosphere relaxed. It’s one of those places that feels effortlessly stylish and makes for a great cheeky Instagram snap while you sip your wine.
