| I’ve never bothered to go into this pub before as on the previous winter evenings I’ve gone past the lacklustre brown-tiled Victorian façade has never appealed. But on this warm summer evening the double doors were open and there was a large crowd drinking outside, so I decided to venture in. It’s a two bar pub although I didn’t make it down to the lower bar. The ground floor has a central bar serving a decent enough wide range of drinks including continental lagers and a decent array of handpumps including London Pride and Hook Nortons Old Hooky. I can relate to the previous comments on service as, of all the pubs I tried on this crawl I had to wait the longest to be served in the Southwark Tavern. Bat, although not very rapid, the bar staff were serving in order, so all in all, a decent enough stop close to Borough Market. Gann - 21 Jun 2009 18:51 |
| Loving the new management! We popped in for a pre-theatre bite last night and I was chuffed to see all the changes. The new menu is a joy - really imaginative and generous portions (the chunky chilli and the lemon chicken especially) - much better than the flat pseudo-gastro stuff that used to be the norm in there. And you have to appreciate new management who make a real effort to spruce up the toilets and do something interesting to the decor of the cells downstairs. The staff also seem to have become more efficient, jolly and knowledgeable. Good work all round! LittleMissRandy - 29 May 2009 10:30 |
| I've enjoyed this place more under new management, they might be a little slow but none of the irritating "how was your day" false stuff when I was there, just simple and polite, but I did the pub quiz the other week and some tosser won who I actually saw cheating using an iphone! I've noticed this in a few pubs I frequent and it's really starting to annoy me. markmundy - 25 Apr 2009 13:42 |
| Pretty good pub compared with a lot of the local offerings. Good range of ales and a comfortable atmosphere. Not cheap but where is around there!? bananaco - 31 Mar 2009 20:04 |
| Used to like this pub. It's got a nice range of beers and is in a great location. Sadly the sheer ineptitude and rudeness displayed by the bar staff means I'll be going elsewhere in future. Whoever runs the place seems to think that the pub being located next to Borough Market guarantees its clientele and there's no need to bother to recruit and train half-decent barstaff. Maybe they're right... Pumpkinjuice - 30 Mar 2009 11:51 |
