The Goldsmith Pub and Dining Room, Borough

Eaten here once - can't fault it really although the souffle was beyond piping hot - patience required! Extensive wine list with a range of prices to suit all, polite and efficient but no nonsense service.

Posting here in the interests of balance as I despair at the comment about them not picking out the rocket leaves. If the chef had indeed done this mind-numbing task the customer could then have chanced across a fragment of rocket leaf, or complained about the chef picking through the salad (I cannot think a chef would have an implement suitable for the purpose). And in any case, asking any sub-Michelin restaurant to pick out particular leaves for you is a bit precious in my humble opinion.

This should not put off anyone from a superb local pub - somewhere I'd be happy to travel several miles to and great if you've been to Borough Market and don't mind a 10 minute walk to get away from the increasingly hectic surroundings there.
