East Dulwich Tavern in Southwark - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great place to watch the footie and Maria serves a delicious Guinness 😋 You need to fix the soap dispenser in the women’s toilets though !

Had a pint of Landlord Cask ale. Easily the best cask pint I've had in London in the past 10 years, well kept and fresh. Food good too, good team a real low key gem and must visit, all told excellent work guys

Friendly, welcoming, 7 ale taps, TVs, pub quiz. I never eat in pubs cos the prices are always too steep, but they aren't here, and the food was well-presented and delicious. Great pub.

Staff are very helpful and friendly food service good a very nice pub

Rude bar man. We were served the wrong drink, and when we returned it, he couldn’t believe that it was wrong. Then he blamed us for not speaking up while he was pouring it.

I had the roast which was great - this seems an odd thing to say but I had the best carrot I’ve ever had! It was delicious! Service was okay but there seems an inconsistent approach to opening a tab when having food.

Quiet place. We visited on Sunday morning and walked into the cafe.. no staff on hand.. (I guess we arrived bang on opening time).. Great quality cakes, coffee and snacks though!!!

Amazing service and great venue highly recommend Thanks again Lamarr :)

Always a great night at the EDT tbh

Best pub on Lordship Lane in East Dulwich. Very good range of guest ales. Sitting areas outside on the street in the sun.

Excellent food especially the veggie sausage and mash. Pork one was great as well. Super service from Gary!

There is no garden but the music is good. The acoustics is not greater but high ceilings. I haven’t tried any food, just a late drink. Music is audible and good at times. People of all sorts.

Magnificent pub - great selection of food & drink.. & entertainment served by helpful staff. Also situated in an ideal location nearby to bus routes in Lordship Lane, Goose Green, Forest Hill + East Dulwich mainline Railway Station in Grove Vale SE22

A Dulwich institution - excellent food, staff and vibes. Never had a bad time here! Excellent Sunday roast and also vegan burger!

Very busy, popular local in East Dulwich. Always crowdy and a nice atmosphere. Which is a good thing these days.

Lovely boozer. Friendly bar staff, good atmosphere

I came here on Tuesday for a pub quiz. Best one I’ve been to recently, Lois recommend citra ale and it was brilliant, will be back soon!

You won't regret spending some time in the East Dulwich Tavern. An institution for good reason 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Probably the best pub in East Dulwich. Decent selection of cask ale and draft beers/ciders. Wine selection is above average for a pub. It's quite spacious a nd they usually have sport on a big screen in the back room. Food looks ok. Gets quite busy after Dulwich Hamlet games. There is a lot of outside seating and they open up the folding walls in the summer.

Really poor service. I came in for a drink and was served by a man who didn't even bother to look at me. He poured my drink and slammed it down on the bar. I had to get some serviettes to clean the mess up he made. After sitting down with my drink he came over to some people sat opposite and just said...you didn't pay for your food. The man had paid and it was an error on the bar mans part. He didn't even apologise for his error. The bar man has zero customer service skills and was rude. People waiting to be serves and he's just wandering about calling people Bro. No idea how this man has a job there. Just to be clear the lady and other man behind the bar were really nice and friendly.

Great burgers, nice staff, nice atmosphere. Wish there were a few more options for sides.

Nice pint served by friendly staff.

Dog friendly and a good red wine.

Our waitress was amazing! She came back to check on us and was extremely friendly. Suprised my friend by making his desert a birthday desert. Bar staff went out of the way to create a great atmosphere by providing candles for my impromptu celebration 🍾 ✨️ Thank you 😊 A lovely cozy and even romantic pub. Will visit again.

I stumbled upon the East Dulwich Tavern recently, and it's become my go-to spot in the neighborhood. The atmosphere is so inviting, especially with the option to cozy up by one of their fireplaces during winter. The pub food is a real treat – love the modern British twist and the fact that they use fresh, seasonal ingredients. Don't even get me started on their Sunday roasts; they're a game-changer. The Lodge upstairs is a hidden gem for private events, and the whole place just feels like a warm, local hangout. Highly recommend for a laid-back, enjoyable time in East Dulwich.

The kitchen here has always been excellent. This time it wasn't.

Sorry but I was thinking of late 70's and early 80's

Nice pub, shame it has the rudest barman I have ever come across in my life. How he possibly have a job dealing with the public I will never understand

We stumbled upon this pub on a rainy day, really liked the decor and ambience. Staff was friendly.

First time in here ( after driving past it many times over the years!). Nice pub and the food looks good but the beer was a little uninspiring and flat. Rosie's Cloudy Tropical cider was nice though!👍🙂

Such pleasant bar staff. Really enjoyed "an oul pint" of ale here with a couple of pals on a Saturday afternoon having taken in the local charity shops. The food looked great 😃. Pets allowed. Eclectic mix of decor and really a nice atmosphere.

บรรยากาศดีครับพนักงานบริการรวดเร็วทันใจครับอาหารอร่อยแล้วจะกลับมาอุดหนุนอีกครับแนะนำครับผม

Excellent, friendly pub with good beer.

I often meet local friends in this bar. It follows the gastropub formula, Sunday roasts, wood floor, lots of craft beers, but does it well. Handily positioned right at the top of Lordship Lane. On a sunny Friday afternoon the crowd was mostly builders and WFH types who'd knocked off early. The service was fast, prices are what you'd expect, so a couple of pints and we moved on.

Great East Dulwich Pub. Part of its history. Great upstairs for events.

Cute pub eith a selection of beers and drinks. Staff were lovely

Nice and cozy local pub with extremely friendly bar staff. The only one comment that they were working very hard, would be nice if they would have some help.but I understand times are tough, but little help at busy times could probably speed up the sale. But that's more like advice rather than a critic.

Great assortment of draft and keg pints. Stay away from the wings because they're addictive!

Decent pub for watching sport with a nice menu

I had a really nice beer from the draught for a day at an appealing price, in a comfortable chair in a really nice environment.

Excellent Brilliant Location especially from Lordship Lane Dulwich London England UK Britain. Enjoy all Pubs Bars Restaurants Etc etc

Nice spot for a beer in the sun before Gala Festival in Peckham Rye Park m.

Great pub for watching sport. Lots of TVs, great beers on tap and staff are all lovely.

The area here is very well catered for with a great selection of nice pubs with out-door seating. This is one of them. A great place to meet with friends, or just tonsit with a book and sip a pint. Lovely staff, great drinks, and good food for those who want some.

Nice bar with plenty of options, nice bar staff and great patrons.. Lovely sitting outside in the sunshine watching the world go by.

A good local boozer with lots of seating both inside and out, screens for watching sport (but thankfully they don't dominate), and good beer. A pint of Volden on cask for just £3.50 when I visited in May 2023 - unbeatable!

Great venue with lovely staff and good drinks. Nice room upstairs for music gigs

On a Thursday night it was the only one in East Dulwich where I could eat at 9.30. The burger was really good. Also I had a good Prosecco. The guy and the girl at bar are really nice too.

I normally pop in here for a couple when visiting relatives. I like the eclectic feel of this place and the bar staff are friendly but I think it was a bit dirty this last time, especially the floor. Shabby doesn't disguise dirt for me. I also do not understand why the outside tables are so popular. You can't hear yourself think and get covered with fumes from the roundabout. But it does seem lots of people like it, so maybe just me!!

Great pub for watching sports. Good beer selection. Nice upstairs room for parties.

Average Sunday roast. The pink part of the beef was good, but also, there were no edibles/chewable cuts. Yorkshire pudding was the biggest disappointment. How could you overcook it so badly and serve it? Good beer selection. The tables could’ve been cleaned more regularly.

It’s had its day. Average boozer.

Great pub with some delicious wine & aperol

Would be 5* but you got rid of the veggie sausages. Used to be our regular bangers n’ mash spot.

Popped in for a late lunch with a friend after scanning the menu online, which stated you could swap burger buns for a gluten free bun. However, when looking at the paper menu inside the pub, this wasn't mentioned and the menu was incredibly limited compared to what's on the website. I checked with one of the staff to see if GF buns were available, they said no but could check for bread, which they didn't have. So I ended up with a bunless burger which I still had to pay full price for. Disappointing as it was one of very few options offering gluten free in the area, which is something people with gluten intolerance or celiac usually check beforehand to avoid things like this happening. Would suggest they remove the information from their online menu if it's not accurate.

Delicious & delightful food & service @ late Sunday lunch. Thanks Team Tavern! X

USE TO be such a good pub & I always use to come here but the past few months it’s just gotten worse and worse. Service is awful to get a pint, the staff never clean up the glasses or tables. They use to have a great menu and recently changed it and it’s been the last straw. My mate ordered 3 fries & 2 sausage rolls for a group of us and then only 2 fries showed up. So we went and asked where the rest was and the staff just said, we don’t have sausage rolls so I didn’t charge you. But that was after 30 minutes of waiting for the order. Would recommend finding a new spot for Dulwich residents.

Ok pub. Live Jazz evening. Very atmospheric

Nice and cosy in here. Local ales and drinkable Pinot

Un lieu à découvrir. Je recommande

Nice cosy pub, that had a really nice atmosphere.

Came here to get some Uni work done. Such a great place. Have been before with some mates for a quiz night, even came second and won a bottle of wine! Super friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. Also great food.

Popped in for a quick drink and felt a very welcoming public house. The food looked pretty amazing, too !

Very pleasant experience here. I only went for 1, meeting a mate but the decor and shape are conducive to a homely, sociable pub. Bigger than you think too. Would like to come back on a busy Friday and Saturday, I imagine the vibe would be excellent and I could score it a five.

Love the place they serve gluten free ipa on draught

We had xmas lunch here, the gravy and the potatoes were lush

Decent pub in a good locations. Prices are reasonable for the area and the bar staff serve your drinks fast even in the busier periods. Was not impressed with the below average food but plenty of other places to eat along the high street.

Local for our cricket team, great place for a pint!

Great Central pub,Great good.Enjoyed meeting my Family & friends here👍

Very limited food menu but good drinks range. Friendly bar service but staff lacking in coffee training when we visited. Chips were over-salted and that possibly killed my taste buds for the burger. Overall OK - not great though. Was fairly busy on a Saturday afternoon and had a good atmosphere.

Weird and awful roast. Barely cooked potatoes, super burnt (probably the most disgusting I’ve ever had) Yorkshire pudding

Bar Staff friendly and very helpful. A very nice atmosphere. Nice Prava lager.

Rugby was on so it was a full house... Great vibes... No drama 👌🏻

We booked a table for this pub and unfortunately when we arrived there was a mix up with our reservation and there was no table reserved for us to sit at. Whilst the manager was unhelpful, Ethan was friendly and quite quickly resolved the matter and sorted us a table. #payriseforethan

Tasty burgers and large selection of beers

Excellent place for having good evening with friends!

Great pub with wide selection of beer.

Nice big old pub with good food and lots of real ales.

Lovely local boozer with great beer options and a load of spirits and good wine selection. Still full of charm and a good place for Sunday lunch or to while away an evening. Good, friendly service too. I've been coming here on and off for years.

Nice pub with plenty of character

Good environment and generally friendly staff. The only problem is that the menu has been the same for the last 2 years or so and needs a little update.

Good beer, but a bit echoey for my taste.

Great boozer , fantastic lamb & beef roast !

Spacious, good selection of draught and bottled offerings, typical London prices

Excellent service! Staff are fantastic 👍🏻

Good balance of 'friendly local' and 'gastropub' vibes with on-street outdoor seating for people-watching in summer.

Popped in for a quick snack before a jazz concert upstairs. Service was a bit slow but food when it arrived was pretty good.

Great layout, friendly staff, good beers.

Great local pub with good selection of beers. Bangers and mash was delicious and very well priced. Will be back.

Vibrant and lively pub with outdoor seating. Plenty of different beers and a limited but good range of good value food. Quite a lot of puddings although I didn't partake. Food I had was nice although the Ploughman's lunch was off the menu. Not sure how a ploughman's lunch can be off, but there we were.

Had a lovely pint, although a couple of the session beers were out

Locally known as “EDT”, it’s the first pub you see when turning into Lordship Lane and always a bustling location with Dulwich residents enjoying themselves on the benches lining the pavements. The inside of the pub is huge as well, with loads of space. Despite the size, it’s always busy so you’re never guaranteed a seat. Good selection of beers and a few ales on tap. Small food menu with burgers and the like. One of the most fun pubs in Dulwich, especially on a sunny summer Friday or Saturday evening.

Good local pub with a great selection of beers on tap. Large screen for sports inside. Only downside is limited outside seating.

Nice little place. Great customer service

EDT is just the go-to that constantly delivers. The atmosphere is on point there!

Kai-tastic.A good manager and a good team flows out to the customers.

Great choice of beers. Peckham Pils is a great local beer.

Looks a nice pub on Continental Club

Amazing burger and nice cold beer.

Love this pub, they recently changed menù and now have gluten free options which is great, had such a nice burger 🍔 highly recommended 👌
