Sitting under the bridge can be nice on a warm evening. It does get very busy so pick your time. The door staff have always been cheerful and helpful: some of the best.

Federica

One of the few places in London that serves courgette flowers! Excellent menu, interesting cocktails . Not pretentious .

Dav

If you're here for lunch , then the Earl Grey with lemon is lush. Try the sausage rolls . If here later, Grolsch Blond is amaze, as is the Pimms. Read more

Leave work promptly to get a comfy sofa ... The're all gone by 17:10...

Clara Bayarri

The vanilla bean margarita and the chicken breast with strawberry salad were genius. The focaccia not so much

Iunius Mardonius

Very good burger , nice & friendly service 8.5/10

paris mcmahon

Great cocktails . Good wine list & decent food & bar menu

Carl P

I had forgotten how churlish the service is here - every time. This time will be my last.

Mila Star

If packed in main area, go to the very back of the bar through a small corridor and to the second room - always a seat!

Annie Davidson

Great bar...sadly the restaurant service is slow, lazy, forgetful and then they expect the tip! Drink here, just don't eat!

Ann Griffiths

you can reserve parts of the seating in bar areas for free if you're a large party - a good pre-dinner meet up place

Dave Thomas

If you could clear out all of the sofa-hogging hipsters who don't buy any drinks and aren't members of the BFI it would be great.

Sara Feldmann Brummer

Chill out in the squashy sofa area - once you've sat down you won't want to get up again!

Ken C

Great venue with table service even when you're using the sofas

Philip Spence

Sausage rolls in a pint glass are the bomb (veggie version equally as good)

Federica

Fantastically varied menu. Never disappoints.

Nigel Hewson

Best virgin mojito in London (so far)

Nabil Elisa

Get the trout . Very highly recommended!

Ilaria @ilarysgrill Barbotti

A really good lounge bar fill of people for aperitif. Good.

Nathan Roche

Get the sausage rolls to share with drinks. They come chopped up in a pint glass and are the best you'll ever try.

Ipshita Sharma

Nice for a calm drink

Olivia Boswell

Apparently there's a swarm here on Monday 29th August at 8pm - love this place, gonna bring some friends down!!

Clement Lee

Ask for an iced coffee . They do have.

Geraldine McCormick

Great relaxed dining.

Alex Metz

Pint from £3.80. Cocktail from £8

Rhiannon J

Nice bar and staff but look out for the purse thieves. From in your bag.

Kaye Allen

Gnocchi ????❤️❤️????

Justin

Great drinks but busy, busy, busy

Kathryn Havelock

Does fantastic mojitos in the summer, and the Benugo Boys are often easy on the eye! Read more

Laurie Elie

Good cocktails

Guy Corbet

Food acceptable, but "tourist grade" service so leave plenty of time

David Kelham

Can be quite slow service at times

Nick Marley

Great venue for an informal business meeting

Bevsy

Bring your OAP card for discounts

Julia

Chill out in a very relaxed setting with additional bonus of free wi-fi.

Kristen Martino Anderson

Cocktails good here. Atmosphere a bit strange in a good way. Read more

Nicole Bass

Looks nice and good spot, but service was slow, tap beer was flat, and our food was cold in the middle. Wouldn't recommend.

Neelesh Sonawane

Sausage rolls in a pint glass . Not a smooth cocktail but very tasty.

Owen Van Spall

Nice bar but pricey and cocktail orders really slow things up. Rear bar Can be weirdly quiet on some Saturday nights after 10

Filipp Fly

nice bar , fresh beer

Martin King

Pint of sausage rolls in a dimple glass - they rule

Ben Murdoch

The Old Fashioned is really good!

Anthony Shepherd

Slow and dire table service. Staff appear to be put out at the slightest request.

Jeff Riley

Really slow service but nice and quiet

Patrick McDermott

Slow, surly service. Be prepared for a long wait and tables covered with dirty dishes.

Ilaria @ilarysgrill Barbotti

Free wifi bfi but don't work instagram :-((

Beth P

Going here tonight.
