Only tourists in there as far as I could see, with prices to match. Like the Trafalgar next door it has excellent views over the river. Had Okell’s Bitter (an IOM brew that I had never seen before) which was absolutely superb. Preferred it to the Trafalgar as the seating and layout seemed more comfortable even though it was a much darker (literally not spiritually!) pub. I think I have yet to find the best pubs in Greenwich – I would not visit Greenwich just to go to the Yacht.

Decent pub, tucked away down a side alley, that rarely seems busy during the week. Suspect it picks up tourist trdae at weekends. As mentioned by previous posters, good view of the river, so I always wonder why there are not more customers. Part of a company chain, although can't for the life of me remember who - but its the same menu as The Crown in Blackheath. No problem with the clientele.

Usually have 2 or 3 real ales on, with at least one of them rotating on a regular basis. I happened to visit during a beer festival so there was an additional choice. Drank my way through several pints of Hobgoblin and Specky Hen, both in reasonable condition.

Good place for a hassle-free drink.

Arguably better views than the Trafalgar Tavern next door, but the inside is a bit chainy. Large menu with standard pub grub which looked nice enough. Had three beers on, the Pride was as about ad good as it ever is.
I always think you can smell the toilets in here, although my companions didn’t.
Overall nice enough, and slightly more of a pub than the Trafalgar, but not as good as the Cutty Sark 5mins further on.

This was a nice little place, tucked away behind the Trafalgar. Always had a nice atmosphere - warm, and the promise of something idiosyncratic happening, like walking in on a party and being offered crisps. Always a good place to go after a sunny (or even wintry) afternoon in Greenwich park. Great views of the Thames in the evening, too.

Visited again before Xmas and have to say the food was very, very poor. My friend's pie was cold inside and both of us were unwell the day after. The food is very obviously microwaved and, compared to a pub like New Cross' Royal Albert, you can get a proper, freshly-cooked meal for the same price. Joins The Cutty Sark on my list of local pubs not to be revisited.

As for the beer, well, a so, so choice and not very well kept.
