Dean Swift

They let you taste the beer , if you are not sure what would you like to drink. And that is great, because they have many nice beers on tap . Great place, friendly staff !

Good selection of craft beer on tap including stuff from the local Kernel brewery . Food was also nice. Pretty crowded on a Saturday evening, not sure if it was the rugby or that's what its always like

A wide range of cask and craft. Very friendly and knowledgeable bar staff . See the chalk boards if you fancy something different to your usual. Also check out the pic at the bottom of the stairs!

If you want a pub with good beer that also shows sports , this is a good one to visit. Cosy place with food and plenty of beer from local breweries .

Best local pub in the area, great selection of beers on draft and the food is above average.

Tucked away just far enough from the tourist trail on Shad Thames, The Dean Swift has a great selection of craft beers and really friendly staff . Perfect pub to while away a few hours.

Pulled lamb is amazing, nothing but fantastic beers on tap . Don't be fooled by the scotch egg reviews, not THAT good. But everything else is so good it's worth a visit.

We are so lucky to have just moved to SE1 and been recommended this gem by the brewers at Kernel . Amazing food, amazing beer , beautiful spot. Will absolutely come back here often.

An excellent craft beer pub . Tucked away from the maddening crowds at nearby Tower Bridge , it's a good place to rest your feet.

Sweet potato gnocchi sounded intriguing so went for it....Delicious and filling. We booked a table for 12 and we were looked after very well .

Lovely pub with great beers . The chimmichurri burger was a bit bland lacking spice however.

Awesome food. Best fish & chips in London and creative small plates too. The chorizo in cider was excellent.

Stopped in here for a bite to eat and to warm up after watching the marathon. Really accommodating staff , good food and decent choice of beers .

The scotch egg is maybe the best I’ve ever had. Great fish and Chips . Fun atmosphere away from tourists

Great lunch and an amazing collection of beers on tap . Well worth visiting.

this arguably the best ale pub in london. make a night of it and enjoy some snacks . mmm scotch eggs !

Great array of craft beer tucked away down the back streets. Friendly and knowledgeable staff .

Used to be my local and a very good local it was too. Great choice of beers and great pub grub.

Loads of good beer here - British micro and international - and a tasty food menu. Helpful friendly staff too.

Beautiful building, lack of attention and knowledge from barman Rowan might mean you have a less than enjoyable experience . Dirty lines .

Great pub with an excellent range of real ales and keg beers .

Great selection of beer on tap and bottled. With nice pub grub!

Great little pub with good selections of beers and a half decent place to watch a game but the vegetarian options on the otherwise good menu leave much to be desored

Steak was excellent, appreciated the simple food presentation and friendly service !

Bring a board game and a thirst for great craft ales and grab the corner table .

If you like traditional style pubs the Dean Swift is the place to be. It just re-opened after being remodeled. Great staff , relaxed atmosphere , and interesting people to meet.

Great local bar for us... Tasty food and great micro brewery beers on tap .

Great Sunday Roast

Great food and beers , friendly staff

Best scotch egg in London. It's made with Venison ffs.

Any of the roast dinners are mega!

All Sunday roasts are good but the sauce for the chicken (free range corn fed I find out) is in another league.

Friendly staff . Pork roast is best.

Lamb and spare ribs . And BEEEEEEERRRRRRRR!

Venison scotch egg is the winning snack .

Sunday lamb roast

Crazy expensive ... but they have real German Hefeweizen . So lecker!

Ask them to re-establish the 1666 burger with scotch Bonnet and fried egg !

Or you bring your own glass - they refill :)
