Very pleasant hostelry with friendly service and relaxed atmosphere.
The Doombar was well kept and a welcome find. Nice beer garden and a nice mix of people.
Fairly busy at the bar but the bar staff did the thing that so many others find so complex and out of reach - acknowledge you and say they will be with you shortly.

Stayed in this pub whilst working cross the river in Canary Wharf. Decent Brekkie, 'proper' pub with decent beer and bar food, its got an irish bar attached, which i didnt visit, Good base to explore Greenwich and free car park with CCTV worth a mint in this area!

I paid a visit here to The Mitre last night (23rd June) and found it to be a warm, welcoming and pleasant enough place to have a drink or two. Selection was reasonable with ales on offer amongst the usual lagers and there was certain grandeur to the interior. People may disagree with me there! Anyway, the toilets are at the bottom of a steep spiral staircase, so try and avoid when tipsy. There is a conservatory towards the back of the pub and a beer patio hat didn’t get examined due to the rain. I liked this pub and a return visit is definitely warranted.

nice old pub,have been to better places,locals seemed friendly enough,and the london pride was good,this is the place to go in central greenwich if you want to avoid the tourist,and don't fancy wetherspoons

Visited here earlier this month, once at lunchtime, once in the evening. On both occasions seemed like a civilised pub punter-wise, best of the central Greenwich ones in my opinion. Adnams Old Ale was an unexpected find.

Sought refuge from the cold here on Friday, and made to feel very welcome. Good staff, good food.

My girlfriend and I came here Saturday evening (28 Oct) as the nearby Auctioneer was showing Heineken Cup rugby and surprisingly, not the Newcastle, Charlton game on Prem Plus. It was busy, but we were served immediately by the friendly female member of the bar staff. A Magners and a pint of Stella came to £6, so make what you want from that about the prices of drinks if anything.
There were 4 televisions showing the game, including a massive one towards the back of the pub. Seemed a decent boozer to watch football in overall. Good point for the Addicks at Newcastle. I would certainly come to the Mitre again to watch televised football games.

Wrong side of 40? Enjoy a ruck? Then welcome to the place where your dreams will come true. Despite boasting Becks on tap, the redeeming features of this pub are fairly minimal and the "conservatory" looks like it was installed by our close friend Mr Bowen, he of the lairy suits and camp stride.

Proper, not up its own arse, working class pub that welcomes all. A breath of fresh air in the area. A couple of real ales, hardwood floors and tables with plenty of room.
The hotel rooms upstairs are not bad at all, either.

nice pub shame about the food! would have been good only we had to wait over an hour for two burgers, when we did get them they were not cooked properly and was'nt to order! sent them back and had to wait another 15 mins for it still to be wrong!would re-visit for a drink but the food and food service left alot to be desired.

Stumbled across the venue yesteday afternoon as there was no seating room in the Gypsy Moth and The Admiral Hardy.
Quite a mixed crowd in attendance- seasoned alkies propping up the bar, the occasional 'young professional' and a liberal sprinkling of chavs.
Overall- fairly inoffensive. Would revisit

Nothing special but certainly has the edge over many of the other pubs in the area. It's got an interesting shape and the lighting's good. Haven't eaten there but the food did look appetizing, especially the Sunday roasts they had on offer.
Good for; Lets do lunch.

Comfortable bar. The staff are always first class. Nice enough regulars that don't bother you.
|
I do like this pub. Good place to lounge around in until chucking out. Better than the pubs that attract the burberry brigade. A huge screen means plenty of footy action to be viewed.
|
Good place for a Sunday roast, particularly in the summer when the small beer garden comes into play. A bit frustrating that they dont serve food beyond 6 o'clock as potentially a nice pub to stop in on the way home for a pint and a bite to eat. Can get packed on a Sunday when the football is on.

good but non of the staff speak english. there all polish. very rude. needs a change of staff. manager is cool thjough

Totally agree with the other comments - this is a nice cosy pub which does decent food.
The added bonus is that this pub has some BIG function rooms upstairs, as it used to be a hotel, these rooms are sometimes used for big-screen football. Nice.

I run a little group woh meet every 2nd Monday of the month in the conservatory and the bar staff and fine and friendly (the tall, eastern girl, Thai? Vietnamese? often seems to be from Mars). The beer's nothing amamzing and I wish they did food at night but it's nice enough.
|
Fantastic Sunday Roast. Good atmosphere. Family pub without being full of intolerable screaming children. Usual selection of beers- nothing special there. Pleasant nevertheless.
