Beautiful traditional pub , could be in the middle of the countryside! Decking outside with a view of the river . They do cheese boards and traditional pub food ! Lovely crowd a proper hidden gem .

James Cheshire

What small pubs SHOULD be like - cozy , vibrant and friendly . Great selection drinks, great food and all lots of books and crannies to sit in.

Order a local beer and custom cheese plate to enjoy on the deck perched over the Thames. It's enough to make an American want to move to the Motherland. Read more

This is love at first sight!! Amazing atmosphere, a stunning view on the Thames and they are playing The National!!Just wow!And u can have wine with cheese !!Definitely already in my top 5 london spot!

Lucas Ullrich

Fantastic river side view , friendly staff , and good food! Although food quality varies by item: roasts, mussels , liver terrine great - burgers could be better.

Wayne Ford

Charming old-fashion pub situated right on the banks of the River Thames at Rotherhithe, serving excellent food. Sit outside on the deck in summer , and watch the river right below your feet.

A beautiful pub with a fireplace and lots of little antiques , nice place to have lunch and a pint. Looks like it's lost in time, which is good. Lovely staff .

Seth Anderson

The burger and chips were good. Try and find a seat on the covered deck in the rear. Nice place to enjoy a few pints!

S. R.

Lovely, lovely old pub . Beautiful location and a nice selection of ales to choose from. They use candles to light up the place! Only gripe was the music . I'd prefer this pub with no music at all.

Daniel Kolodziej

A wonderful little pocket of london. The pub is charming and full of history. Worth a special trip.

Greg Jane

Steeped in history. Nice terrace on the river but get there early if you want a table outside in summer. Good "craft" beer selection and the food is pretty decent too.

Sam M

Lovely atmosphere and Thames-side outdoor area in this old pub . Enjoyed it so much I completely ignored that some of the beer wasn't very well kept. Punk IPA was suitably tasty. Worth seeking out.

Jenna Anderson

One of the coolest pubs in London . Especially excellent when the back deck is open as it sits right over the Thames!! Great place for dinner . It's an intimate and very cool pub

Phil Clamp

My favourite pub south of the river . Fantastic pub grub (loved the pie ) and decent selection of beers . The back puts you right above the thames. Great for a summers day

Daniel ダニエル

The food is consistently good at this riverside pub . The 30 day aged beefburger is really good, fast efficient service . The Old Salt Quay nearby could learn a LOT from this place..

Sam M

Lovely cosy old pub . Not a great beer selection but Punk IPA on keg is up to standard, and you can't argue with sitting out on the edge of the Thames when the weather is good.

Hoss Nassabi

Great view to Thames, cosy location to hangout with friends while enjoying good pub food . We had Haddock and it was tasty ^_^

Tim Cohen

Great deck, good beer selection and pub meals, cosy winter interior. Good for cold winters or hot summer days. Proper old pub with a bit of American history.

Liana Lindenberg

Perfect pub for Americans. It's got a neat history I tell people back home in the States over and over again.

Rose Cee

Best chicken & mushroom pie I've ever had! Crispy pastry sitting on mashed potato , carrots , lots of green veg & a rich beefy gravy .

Shelley C

Lovely classic old English pub . Start the night with some cheese and ale . Steer clear of the main meals. Great band on a Friday night making it a fun atmosphere .

Timothy Raymond

Cozy place with great history, nice views of the river , and all around good food and selection.

Dilyana Sen ????

Absolutely amazing food - I recommend trying fish and chips ! Lovely atmosphere & friendly staff ! ????????✌????

Kasia Gé

Really cool British pub and good food. Placed by the Thames river and has very nice soul

George Batchelor

Really great burger 's to have with a beer . Can't decide if it's better outside in the summer, or inside in the winter

caseq

A cozy little place with a nice view of Thames and a fair selection of decent ales -- a true hidden gem !

Yiota Pap

I love this pub . Such a cozy feeling with the fireplace and the wooden decor. Food is also very nice.

David Allen

Fantastic London pub . Good stock of beers at the bar , good pub food and a fantastic beer garden over the river

Lidia Vorontsova

Totally deserving of its title of one of the best pubs in London . Sit outside if you can.

Dilyana Sen ????

Food was absolutely amazing - I recommend trying the fish and chips ! Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff ! ????????

Vic McGin

2 for 1 fish and chips on Fridays! This place is so historic and beautiful. Sit on the deck in summer for a view if the river .

Sara Kriegel

Pies and views are great. Leave the risotto . It's £1 if you want more than 3 small pieces of bread with the Camembert , which you will.

Silvia M

Excellent beer , food and desserts . Add to that the great view on the Thames and the history of this lovely pub .

Brian

Amazing roasts and fish and chips . They also have a deck right along the water.

Steph Jones

Off the beaten track but worth finding. Food was great! Great views of the Thames.

Atmospheric pub located close to where the Mayflower set sail to the New World.

Lovely old pub on the south side of the Thames. Nice decor, good beer and food selection.
