Historic pub that had made an effort to retain its charm. Friendly staff.

Great place to come if you like watching people who ordered 45 min after you get your food first... Waited an hour for our food and decided to cancel only to have the server tell us we should have let them know if we were in a rush. This is after he said our food would be 10-15 min when we sat down. Good view though.

Everything is perfect - except for the landlady which consistently bullies her staff and is a loud obnoxious member. Find better management, then you’re golden!

The balcony directly over the Thamse is unbeatable on a beautiful day when the sun sets behind the Tower Bridge. They have the very nice Samuel Smith's Pure Brewed Organic Lager on tab, which is a plus in itself. The staff is very friendly and the food was ok.

The place is lovely, astonishing riverside views of the City and Tower Bridge. HOWEVER, worst service I have had in 5 years in London. Cigarette ash in a glass (like they didn't clean before serving), 1+ hour waiting for our food order, and they come back saying they have run out of half our order... unbelievable. We request to talk to the manager and he comes out with unpolite behaviour... At least we got a refund...

It's my local pub and I love the fact they added tables outside. Great selection of Samuel Smiths beers and cider (one of the best), that's why we are coming back to this specific pub. As before no music inside or outside. We ordered a couple of snacks like burrata and Korean chicken, but food was served in huge carton boxes, not on the plates. But the food was tasty. Service incredibly slow. I would like to suggest to be more client orientated and make them feel welcomed and make it easy to order food inside or outside and just serve food on plates not some takeaway boxes if not requested so. I heard so many people would love to sit there and have a proper brunch with a good pint. Hope management will hear our suggestion.

We arrived on a Monday lunchtime to find that the kitchen was not open. We didnt enquire if this was usual but I would guess it was. Also there was no beer on draught only a range of beers served on top pressure or keg beers if you like. We had a beer in this lovely historic pub with great view up the river towards Tower Bridge and conversed with the barmaid.. Probably worth phoning if you go on a Monday lunch time to see if the kitchen is open. We walked down the river to the next pub and had lunch there.

Visited on a sunny Saturday afternoon to sit on the balcony overlooking the Thames with stunning views of Tower Bridge, the City and The Shard tonour left and the old wharfs of Wapping opposite. The Angel is on a lovely quite stretch of the Thames Path. The owner is great fun with his banter and the staff super friendly and helpful. After the balcony we went inside to the upstairs diningroom with squishy sofas, tables and chairs and a huge three sided window showing off that perfect river view. Lunch was lovely pub grub. Front of House chap was wonderful, fantastic at his job and it was great chatting to him. Chef did a great job. We went early at lunchtime (12) so the pub was quiet but as we were leaving an hour or so later it'd filled up nicely. Lovely pub. Oh and it must be cosy in winter - there's an open fireplace upstairs.

Had the Caesar salad with grilled chicken. And nachos. Service at the counter was nice. But the kitchen was completely overwhelmed. Apart from the fact that the salad came late and was without chicken - the subsequent delivery was a disgrace. The worst Caesars salad ever... tasteless, the chicken was just warmed up, not grilled and there was no salt. Outrageous for 12 pounds. But even 5 pounds would have been too much. The nachos came so late....just about to leave and cancel. Then it was no longer possible... zero flexibility. The only bright spot: the beer was tasty. 6 pounds for a pint... well normal here. In the end, the location on the Thames couldn't be pulled out. No recommendation... Unfortunately!

Roast dinner is 5 stars!!!!!!!!!! SUNDAY ROAST TO DIE FOR orders the 3 meats of beef ,lamb and chicken - best roast dinner, highly recommend, mix of veg parsnips, swede, broccoli, cauliflower cheese, carrots - was absolutely to die for! The meats was beautiful I really would recommend this pub and roast dinner and staff was lovely and enjoyed speaking to them learning history of pub.

Recommend picking up a meal deal at Tesco instead and bringing it here to eat. Views are lovely but the service here is downright horrible.

Don’t go near this place❗️ We visited for a Sunday roast and were initially told it would take 20 minutes. However, the wait extended to an hour + amid a noisy atmosphere, largely due to the landlord shouting, which made conversation difficult. The staff were unhelpful and dismissive when we enquired about the delay. When our meals finally arrived, they were awful - the worst and saddest Sunday roasts ever. The food was cold, portion sizes were small not justifying the £18 price tag, and the meat was predominantly fat.

Location:10! Service: 8 ( the young folks could be a little presumptuous at times) Drinks range: cocktails are great beer range poor! Food: just had a burger and a Sunday roast once… honestly… it was miserable both times. They could invest in food and service to become one of the most favourite pubs in london. The place itself is magical! Over all, it’s worth the experience having a pint with great view! (Specially in the lovely balcony )

Stumbled across this place whilst walking the Thames Path and I loved it’s detached position right on the river surrounded by some greenery. It was a cold Sunday and before I could even see the pub, I could smell the irresistible coal smoke. I had made my mind up already. I grabbed myself a mulled cider and sat near the fire. Granted the cider had been mulling for too long and was a little bitter but it was January after all… It had a really lovely local atmosphere, I don’t remember there being any music, just nice conversation. The views of the wharfs, tower bridge and the river are excellent. I’ll be back for sure.

*Edited some time after initial review* Unfortunately my second visit was not so friendly, and so my rating has been changed to reflect the extremely rude service I received on my last (and it will be my last), visit. In stark contrast to the fantastic service received thanks to a lady called Stacey on my first visit, my most recent visit ended up with me being shouted at by the unhappy middle-aged lady who apparently has been the subject of previous reviews on here..perhaps due to her arguably less-than-hospitable customer interactions. My "crime" was daring to enter the (otherwise empty pub) in search of a spot of lunch while wearing apparently "too muddy" boots. I was told that I was unwelcome unless I went barefoot/bootless while eating there. I decided the fish and chips wasn't worth the berating and open rudeness, and left promptly. A shame. I hope the lady finds a vocation she actually enjoys. It's otherwise a nice pub with a beautiful view of the Thames. Original:Thank you to wonderful staff member, Stacey, for her excellent service to my mum and I. She really made our afternoon 😊. We will be back for sure.

I went into this public house where my great great grandfather was a landlord previously, I asked the bartender if 15 or more could have a drink I explained outside, I had already had seen that in the carpark they had outside seating and explained we had not book but would be willing to sit outside, he said that this was not possible and he was going to get the manager very rude, when the manager came over he was worse, this pub or the owners actually both should feel ashamed their staff are rude, ignorant and absolutely disgraceful, I am an actual freehouse owner, if my staff spoke, how I was spoken to today, they would definitely be fired even before Christmas.

Brilliant location right on the river, it's a great place to be on a bitterly cold Saturday afternoon in November. A real fire is a winner when the weather is cold and the Angel has one. With lots of windows, this pub is bright and welcoming on a sunny afternoon. The original features, cast iron column, open fire and a 'snug' for a more intimate space all add to the laid back atmosphere. The decor includes historical photos of the area which are well worth a look. The food and drink menu (mulled wine in winter) is good and they also offer some cocktails. We had a couple of pints and shared a cheese plate and they were good value. Nice, chatty staff that know their beers gave us a smiling welcome. The toilets were in good order and well stocked and clean. We will definitely plan a walk of the Southbank taking in the Angel again next summer. A return visit is a must.

An unfortunate visit at a pub we were excited to visit. Ordered nachos worth £12 and waited over an hour for them. When they arrived they were literally a plate of crisps with a few dollops of sauce. When discussing with the manager we were met with shrugs and told the kitchen couldn’t handle the orders. I fear one of the oldest pubs in London won’t last much longer with such poor management in charge

The worst plate of nachos in human history, and the service was somehow worse. Twelve English pounds for some off brand crisps and tiny amounts of sauce with no cheese that took over an hour.
