Goddards at Greenwich in Greenwich

Honestly the fastest delivery I’ve ever had im pretty sure a drone or something delivered it haha

Very traditional place and a great value for money. I had the pie and mash with the green gravy - I wouldn't have minded if it was a little bit more salty, but you can add salt & pepper - and (spicy) vinegar - if you like.

Both services and food are excellent. And value for money as well.

Truly amazing food and service 😊

A great traditional pie and mash shop, It was very busy as we went at the weekend but they have plenty of tables with an upstairs which helps. The customer service was efficient as it was busy but not very interactive, it was like a factory line. The food itself reminds me of being young again. Good value for money especially when you think of the location.

Brilliant place to experience East End Pie and mash with of course Liquor! My friend from the US tried for the first time too! Delicious food and very friendly staff! Very affordable prices too.

just like when i was a little boy delicious

Turns out eels are not for us but what a great place to try them!!

Pies at its best. Lots of locals, especially older people. Actually cheap, although without any vegetables apart from potatoes.

Food was not bad. We walked so long to try this place, and the person behind the counter was rushing us to decide, and finally, when I paid, the person behind the counter rudely yelled saying oh you pay in Pound not dollars here, (the transaction is paid for and regardless how I paid the business recieved the full payment) But what this did was killed my appetite to even enjoy the food. The food was maybe 2 out of 5, there are better mash and pie available around. But a better service would have definitely made our trip to Greenwich for this place a whole lot better.

Simple, inexpensive, good and nice! A worthwhile institution for a lunch or a snack

Magnificent food Amazing chicken and mushroom pie!

Such a lovely place for traditional English food! I had the classic pie and the chicken & mushroom, both were absolutely delicious. The cherry tart for dessert was a real highlight. Friendly service and a cozy dining area upstairs made the experience even better."

I took the eel pie to take away. Specific, but good. The eel was boiled, the pie always with meat. There were also some mashed potatoes and a glass of parsley sauce/broth, but I didn't understand how I was supposed to use it!

Fantastic traditional pie and mash. Service was excellent and the food was spot on for the price. Keep doing what you are doing.

Two people and a dog. Lovely pie and mash. Bought two bottles of chilli vinegar bought too. Pie quality is better than elsewhere I've tasted. Would of bought the dessert however as the shop is not dog friendly I couldn't juggle that with the food. Luckily there are park benches nearby to eat. If you have a dog and it's warm weather then definitely consider it when in Greenwich. If it's cold then don't.

Goddard's is famous for its pie and mash and that is exactly what they do best. The selection is exceptional, the service is friendly and very fast and the food is comforting and very well priced. There is nothing fancy going on here--just good, traditional comfort food. There may be a line to get in but the experience is well worth the wait.

We've often eaten pie and mash at Goddards and loved it. If you want authentic pie and mash this is the place to go. Highly recommended.

Superb! I live in Greenwich and this is the place for the best pies you can eat. Leave room for the incredible puddings.

It is a typical and appointed English pub. I ate MashedPie potato...it had no flavor at all. The Pie looked like a biscuit with meat, the potatoes had no flavor not even the butter could be tasted (assuming they put any since it's a puree) and the peas had the same taste as canned ones. Yet being a named and typically British pub I expected much better in terms of food.

It's also an institution to go eat "pies" at Goddards. Large variety of very very good pies, served with mash and superb sauce. Plus, they are very cheap compared to many other places. We feel good there because it’s family.

Bustling Greenwich market. Goddards is a friendly, welcoming space. Traditional food. Pie, mash & peas with gravy. Steak & kidney, contents were tender & very tasty, encased in a light pastry. Delicious. Mushy peas with a splash of vinegar, yummy. Well worth a visit.

Resto très sympa et original, ambiance cafétéria. On commande au comptoir, on prend son plateau et on nous donne notre assiette remplie. La spécialité : les boules de purée façon glace avec les "pies" : tourte avec une grosse pâte, dans laquelle se trouve une bouillie de viande hachée avec de la sauce. Ne pas hésiter à demander la sauce supplémentaire avant de payer, sinon ils ne la rajoutent pas dans l'assiette. C'est bon, pour de la nourriture anglaise, rien de gastronomique cependant.

(Double) Pie, Mash and Liquor can't go wrong! The chilli vinegar is a great accompaniment

Smashing! Good food, quick and friendly service although the place was nearly full. Food looks a bit suspicious but is delicious 😋 Don't forget to buy a bottle of vinegar with you!

Great and friendly staff. Tried out pie and mash for the first time - was not disappointed!

Very good experience, the price quality is exceptional.

Zum Ende unseres 4-tägigen Familientrips nach und durch London haben wir uns auch das östliche Greenwich als Ziel rausgesucht, speziell um im Goddard's Essen zu gehen - ehrlich gesagt wissen wir schon gar nicht mehr, wer uns diese Empfehlung gegeben hat... Das Goddard's at Greenwich ist ein richtiges gutbürgerliches Traditionslokal, wie man es sich vorstellt! Der untere Speise- und Bestellraum inkl. langer Theke ist ebenso rustikal, hölzern eingerichtet wie auch der obere Speiseraum und lädt trotz relativ großem Trubel zum Verweilen ein. Die Speisekarte ist übersichtlich, denn hier gibt es hauptsächlich "Pie & Mash" mit "Liquor" oder/und Gravy (vegan) und Peas. Die "Küchelchen" kann man mit verschiedenen Fleischfüllungen bestellen, die vegetarische Variante basiert auf Soja (meine Frau war begeistert!). Bei so leckeren Hauptspeisen darf es nicht an passenden Desserts fehlen und die gab es für uns in Form von Sticky Toffee Pudding mit Vanilleeis und Rhubarb Crumble mit Custard - zum Reinlegen! Von einer Warteschlange sollte man sich auf keinen Fall abschrecken lassen, denn es geht sehr zügig und man wartet nicht lang - wir standen 2m vor der Tür und kamen in weniger als 5min zum Bestellen.

You just have to go there if you're in the area but don't be too greedy I went for two pies and was a bit overwhelmed, and had no room for the rhubarb and custard crumble 🧐

Pies and mashed potatoes. I had the chicken and mushroom pie. It was good. I had a couple of big chunks of chicken. The outer edges of the crust were a little over cooked but tasty.

Nice place, fast service, good pies. We took beef and chicken with mushrooms. The chicken one has a lot of gravy inside and there are pieces of meat, but no meat was found in the beef one. Lots of dough and more potatoes. Not enough meat. The prices are affordable and everything is delivered very quickly. But the apple crumble is very tasty. Two scoops of ice cream and a lot of apples)

Fast and delicious pies & mash. Larger selection of pie and dessert varieties.

I had double pie and double mash with gravey and it was lush. I would have given it 5 stars but the apple crumble let it done as the crumble was more like a pie top. Staff very polite.

Fab pie and mash! Traditional shop and a very warm welcome…we couldn’t manage a pudding but we’ll be back to try them!

First pie and mash I've had in 60 years+. Disappointed as it didn't taste the same as the one I used to have in Woolwich in the 60s.

The place is nice and convenient. However, the flavor of the beef pie is almost non-existent, the same goes for the gravy and the mash. We only gave the second star for the pie with lamb and rosemary whose filling had a vague flavour. The disappointing pastry. Maybe the problem is that we are Italian and we like good food.

I ordered the minced beef pie and mash with liquor. Both of them were without taste. The stuff are lovely and the place looks great, but the food needs to improve.

The food was served warm, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. However, the flavors were quite bland— the potatoes tasted a bit like boxed ones, the gravy didn’t have much flavor, and the pie lacked distinct flavors of a traditional pie.

I don't like to fail, so it's the most basic and cheapest. I ate Beef Pie & Mash It tastes different from Australian meat pie. The staff were all friendly and the meat inside was delicious. Good.

Now, this gaff has been around for ages, just like the old pie and mash. Traditional, working peoples food from the time of docks and markets. Goddards, has the Traditional pie, mash and liquor, jellied eels for the more discerning palate. But, unlike many others they understand that variety is the spice of life. Many different pie flavours, including veggie. Not forgetting, the sponge puds, bread and butter pudding and crumbles. If you fancy a bit of Traditional old London nosh with a modern twist, give it a go my old china, your north and your derby will thank you and you won't get the Eartha's afterwards.

Get the Lamb and Rosemary Pie, you won't be disappointed, it's always bob on.

Very busy. Food was great and queue out the door. Serving staff didn't really acknowledge customers but it was very busy

Cheap and cheerful food. Goddard is a very dependable institution for pie and mash. The eels don't particularly appeal to me, but if you fancy trying a London delicacy, this is the place for you. Not surprisingly, being very close to the University of Greenwich this has become popular amongst students.

If you want to try a local flavor and place, you can visit, but pie and mash is a very average flavor. The town is calm and beautiful.

Lovely pie and mash with apple crumble and custard for afters.

Lovely English pies with mash and liqueur. We had the beef and lamb pies. A must in Greenwich

First time I've been to this place for pie and mash, and I would say it was lovely, the apple pie and custard was delicious to 😋

English pub that meets its expectations in terms of decoration but the food is extremely bland and insipid. The "feet" are generous in terms of quantity, but it's like putting in only bread and also without salt. Quite disappointed, because we were hoping for a culinary experience in Greenwich at lunchtime and we missed the opportunity. The sinks are good, they comply The close, friendly treatment Good presentation It's a shame about the food, because with a little effort and being in a tourist area, it is easy to earn a splendid rating. I put this in the hope that perhaps the owners will think about it. All the best

My boyfriend (from the UK) took me there yesterday. We each ordered different pies and mash and shared. I ordered the lamb & rosemary with gravy and he ordered the chicken & mushroom with liquor. Both were fantastic! The portions were perfect. Loved the atmosphere. Have told my UK boyfriend he needs to make some for tea (dinner) one night.

He estado aquí de nuevo, y ayer ( 26 de marzo de 2025) también, Buena comida, Pastel de puré y licor es 6. 20 , y una taza de Rosy Lee vino con el trato de comida, Delicioso! Pastelerías y puré tiendas pueden estar cerrando por todas partes, Pero este no, Excelente ubicación, comida y servicio, Un verdadero placer de Londres, Ayer comí un tazón de Jellied Eels, Pastel doble y licor, Seguido por Pudín de Pan y Natillas, Con una taza de Rosy Lee, Bien recomendado, Una visita para recordar.

The food filled us up, but the taste was disappointing. I was excited about eating some tasty pie and mash for a good price, but only the price was good. There was basically no taste.

Lovely place. Both the mash & pie and sticky toffee pudding was great. The place feels very authentic

Very tasty, filling! This is what you need when you are on your feet all day and very hungry!!!!

Great food for the price. Old school feeling. Wish they did more places like this

A bustling restaurant, serving proper English grub. Food portions are massive, and the food is very reasonably priced. Both their pies and mash were superb. And if you haven't tried eels before, you have to try their stewed eels. Also, cannot forget to mention the staff, who were super friendly, and service was very quick 5 out of 5. Top class. A must visit if you are in the Greenwich area. Will definitely be visiting again.

We had sweet cherry pie with custard - pie shortcrust wasn't the best, but the cherry filling was great and it comes with a huge portion of custard. Tea was ok, but the tea cup should be cleaner. Otherwise it is a good place to try a traditional or sweer pie!

Everything is very simple and tasty.

El bistec y pastel de riñón y puré seguido de ruibarbo crumble eran ambos magníficos . . excelente relación calidad-precio y delicioso hasta el punto de que todavía no tengo hambre 14 horas después. Atención al cliente por padre e hija que recuerda a años anteriores caracterizada por bromas de bienvenida y eficiencia sonriente

Good pie mash and peas at a very affordable price. Busy pub for lunch but friendly staff and lots of seats. Beautiful rooms, especially upstairs (nice view). I took the chicken and ham with peas and gravy. It was good, and very generous (you shouldn’t worry about being still hungry after that). But I was very disappointed with the gravy : it had no taste at all ! But still, I recommend this great pub.

Its my first time visiting Goddards with my family for their signature beef pie and mash.! Its like a fast food restaurant, everyone gets their pie fast and they sit and enjoy.! Reasonably priced and we licked the plates clean.!

The pies taste absolutely awful when this is the only thing this place is famous for😐they don’t taste like anything, nor does gravy or mash. Even tesco’s pies are better than this, I genuinely don’t understand why there’s so many good reviews.

Una de las mejores pastelerías y purés en las que he estado. El ambiente era genial, el personal era fantástico y amable. Los pasteles sabían tan bien, que el licor era como debería ser. Incluso el puré estaba sabroso. Incluso tengo algunos pasteles congelados para llevar a casa y una botella de su vinagre de chile

Check out my full review on TripAdvisor. Basically, pretty awful food experience.

Tried the lamb and rosemary pie today, absolutely delicious.

Steak pie had very hard chewy beef. Definitely not slow cooked. Steak and kidney pie tiny bits of meat. Nice busy atmosphere but food we had was Disappointing. I guess it's like LS Lowry paintings...everyone pretends it's good. But it isn't.

Best place for a traditional pie. Good selection of different kinds and comes with mash potatoes, gravy and parsley sauce. We had the beef and the lamb with rosemary. Highly recommend, even lunch time you will find a seat. Prices are super fair, worth it.

Always well worth the early morning train journeys down from the Midlands on Saturday mornings. Still working on converting the little one over to meat pies though!

Loved the staff. 1st timer with pie and mash. Even with the pepper and vinegar it was on the bland flavourless side. Chose not to waste the calories on finishing it. The young lady at the counter was delightful.

Unexpectedly delicious, the eel must be sprinkled with spicy vinegar and pepper, the taste is instantly different. The decoration service and presentation have a retro and rustic feel, which is very nice and has a great atmosphere.

One of our family favourite spot! My son loves it and we are going there often for pies and for the amazing homemade desserts. The portions are big, the pies are super tasty (I always order steak and ale so good that I can't change) We usually share the dessert because after the pie we are super full, the tables are confortable and the staff is friendly. (My only downside is, is not dog friendly).

Probably the worst place I’ve ever been, pie was dry and the gravy tasted of nothing at all. When I took it to the counter, he said “that’s just how they are” terrible 🤣

Terrible, stale veg pie, complain and told that’s ’how they are’

Great pie and mash, original liquor .. Proper...

A proper 'spit and sawdust' venue. Decent food at almost unbelievable prices for London. The chicken and ham pie was so-so, but the cherry pie dessert with custard was amazing.

L'adresse parfait pour un Pie & Mash traditionnel à la bonne franquette ! Commande au comptoir, service express sur plateau repas puis direction une des tables communes pour déguster sa spécialité so British. Très appréciable : rien n'est salé, c'est rare et c'est parfait. Bonne ambiance en salle, où les touristes côtoient les travailleurs du coin venant avaler leur déjeuner sur le pouce. J'adore, je recommande et je reviendrai !

Such a popular, and very busy restaurant, I luckily found only a couple of people in front of me, and a space on a table to eat. Settled for cheese and onion pie, mash, peas and gravy, plus a cup of tea. Service amazingly quick, the meal was substantial and filling, fantastic value. I may have had a dessert, good selection on the menu, but by the time I had finished the meal, the queue was out of the door. A very different dining experience.

I try to squeeze a visit to Goddards into any day-trip I make to London, and yesterday was no exception. I always find the staff to be very helpful, and the food to be simple, tasty and good value. During this lunch, I had a chilli minced beef and a cheese and onion pie with double mash and liquor. I always carry my food upstairs to find salt, pepper, malt vinegar and chilli vinegar at the tables. I’ve never had a dessert at Goddards, so maybe next time I’ll have a single pie and a crumble instead. Great place.

Goddard’s at Greenwich is hands down my favourite pie and mash spot in London. The pies are fantastic, with a perfectly crisp and flaky pastry and rich, delicious fillings. I love that they offer more than just the classic minced beef pie—there’s also a cheese and onion veggie option, which is a great addition alongside the traditional vegetarian pie. The mash is smooth and creamy, and the liquor has that perfect herby taste that makes the dish complete. If liquor isn’t your thing, they also have gravy, which pairs just as well. The portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable, making it great value for money. The atmosphere is lively and full of character, with the classic pie shop feel that adds to the experience. Even though it’s always busy, the staff are lovely and work quickly while staying friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to go back to try one of the desserts, they looked yummy! If you’re looking for a proper traditional pie and mash experience in London, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!

Atmosphere of the restaurant was great. It was packed full of people, so obviously very popular. The younger lady behind the counter asking for our order was quite rude and impatient, but the other members of staff seemed pleasant and chatted a bit about the history of their family business. The food was disappointing and abit hit or miss. There was no flavour to most of the food. The mash was lumpy and dry and the inside of 2 out of 4 of our pies had no flavour at all. It is great that they offer a gluten free option, but I would suggest avoiding it. The pastry tasted quite bad and the inside filling was just mushy with no flavour at all. On the other hand, my daughter highly recommends the chicken and mushroom pie. She ate every last bit. We probably wouldn't return but appreciate the experience.

All of the food had no flavour. They had no seasoning at all so not an enjoyable experience

As always: Lovely food, delivered hot and on time. Thank you.

You have to go there! Great food great price ! Proper Pie and Mash shop

Living in Spain now ,always look forward coming to visit family and my must is Pie and mash....food and service is top marks

I am always happy to pop in when I am in the area with the wife

Lovely pie,mash & liquor Friendly staff an quick service

Great experience there. Efficient service and hearty portions.

Wonderful shop with pies ready to go with a nice gravy and wonderful service. The lamb and rosemary pie is particularly delicious!

As a gluten, intolerant person, I never thought I would be able to enjoy pie and mash again. Thank you so much. In the immortal words of Arnie. " I'll be back "

Went there today with a mate for pie mash and eels. Top notch nosh and lovely staff.

Sinceramente, no teníamos idea de qué esperar. En Greenwich, estaba cayendo y teníamos hambre. Vi el letrero de 'Pies and Mash' (bueno '... y anguilas' en realidad). Decidimos que era un día de tarta y puré así que entramos. Fue genial. Parecía ser mitad turistas extranjeros y mitad locales (que todos parecían conocer al personal, etc). Servicio rápido y todo muy bueno y justo lo que se necesitaba. El personal limpiando las mesas todo parecía muy alegre y educado. Una buena broma. Creo que pagamos 24 libras por nosotros tres, que parecía bastante buena relación calidad-precio

Delicious Traditional pie and mash shop in a lovely area of Greenwich. Great customer service with staff always offering a smile or a helping hand and a compliment or two if your lucky 😂. A touristy spot although there are a handful of regulars such as myself. Optional Communal tables or normal smaller tables that you don’t have to share. Always leave full and happy.

Great place to eat. Pie and mash excellent. Staff lovely.

Best meat pie I've ever had and a great price. I would eat her all the time if I was local!

Great pies and liquor and Mash and amazing puddings!

Fantastic traditional pie and mash bar. The food is absolutely delicious. The staff are lovely and friendly. The prices are cheap but everything is of a great quality.

Exceptional pie & mash! Delicious, traditional flavors, perfect liquor/gravy, plus classic desserts. A true taste of London!

First time in England for New years Eve day and the first time to eat here. Pies are really nice, very filling, and the mashies (mashed potato) are fluffy. Very busy place and popular, and I'm glad my sister in law recommended it.

Why the ladies are always so rude? They should be more patient with tourists people 😪

Visitamos Goddard’s por primera vez el sábado 1 de febrero. Habíamos querido visitar durante bastante tiempo después de darnos cuenta de que hacen tartas sin gluten. Teníamos dos pasteles sin gluten uno con salsa gf y el otro con licor gf, y una lata de coca y creo que pagamos 13 libras extrañas. El chef nos hizo salsas separadas y tomó unos 10 minutos para que nuestra comida estuviera lista. No he comido pastel y puré durante varios años desde que no tengo gluten, así que fue genial probarlo. Sinceramente no es el mejor pastel que he comido, pero ambos comimos nuestra comida y no puedes equivocarte en una fría tarde de enero con pastel caliente y puré, y generalmente los alimentos gf son más caros, así que fue genial que esto fuera barato y alegre.

They were delightful! So nice about gluten free pies. Really easy and unfussy and caring. Lovely to feel welcome.
