Grove House Tavern in Southwark

We went for Sunday roast with some friends. Good atmosphere. Roasts were good albeit a fairly small plate. No Guinness as the tap was off was a real disappointment.

Amazing food and staff but the amount of zoomers who come here may make you want to die 👍

Good selection of beers and food with an excellent atmosphere.

Good sandwiches. Lovely staff. Poor selection of real ale.

Pleasant enough pub tucked down a side street.

Called in for a brief stop in private room. All seemed fine to me. Big projector TV for sport and good range of beers

Was having major sensory overload, was too late to go outside with my pint. Staff let me sit in the back room. Thank you for being so kind & inclusive. I've seen one of my old clients with learning difficulties being so positively received & supported. Keep up the kindness guys really lovely & so appreciated :)

really cute bartender with new zealand accent and curly hair

Top draw wine .. seating ang meeting people

Lovely food but I would prefer a larger selection on menu

Nice pub with selections of beers!

One of the chillest pubs in the neighbourhood. Chill staff, chill patrons, chill tunes playing. Mondo sando during the week operates out of here - I’ve been meaning to try it, as it’s the talk of the town, but I can’t personally vouche for it… yet! Dog friendly pub, which is chill too. Nice tables outside in the lane

The pub is great but the security they have outside are pretty horrible it’s not worth going. If it’s warm out pick another pub.

Quality boozer. Gone are the days of running past the Grove House Tavern on your way to the Crooked Well (still a fantastic pub). Now you are greeted by bustling bench’s, perfect pints and Mondo Sando’s sandwiches. These, along with friendly staff, are the ingredients for a great pub. The Grove House Tavern has it all.

Had a semi-decent roast dinner here, though nothing special. Roast potatoes were awful, meat was overcooked but also tasted good. Pretty ordinary beers, Brixton Pale, etc.

Great place, fantastic roast and sandwiches

do you boil the potatoes before you roast them? i don’t think so x

Food was really good, but the music was so loud we could not hear ourselves speak or think

Lovely place to sit outside with a wine 😊

Honestly the worst Sunday roast I have ever had in my entire life. soggy 'roast' potato's, semi raw carrots, watery tasteless gravy over priced potato sides (sides in general) stuffing balls and Romanesco sauce with parmesan, what does that have to do with a roast dinner? Dry pork and soggy crackling and 2 very bland Yorkshire puddings. All priced at nearly 25 pounds and over 30 because of the beer I had. Its a great pub to drink in but apparently not to eat food. As a chef these basic fundamentals of cooking don't seem to be met and for that reason it is ridiculously overpriced and i wouldnt think about coming back again for food. Honestly a shame that i have wasted so much money on what couldve been good food

I've been to this place so many times that I've totally lost count! First time was in 1978 (!) when a friend went to Camberwell Art School (as we used to call it), when there was literally nowhere else to go in the area. It has been many things since then (including a heady period in 90s when they did 241 pizza every Tuesday when everyone who was anyone came out to dance on the bar, literally!) and although I can't say it's current incarnation is my favourite, it beats the last "tart's boudoir" set up! A lovely building with quiet, sunny outside space is hard to beat. Reasonable selection of beers and wines, friendly staff, haven't checked out the food recently.... UPDATE…. Since Parched London took over (after my last review), they’ve smashed it here! Always busy, great friendly staff and a buzzing atmosphere. The food is kind of wrap based but quirky and tasty and the Sunday roasts look great. Hopefully this version of the Grove will run and run.

Great beer, great service and great colour scheme! Very very nice looking pub. Sandwiches 10/10

Great big lovely pub with a great atmosphere, a good range of beers & the most delicious sarnies, ever!

We had a very good time , great ambiance, people dancing, singing...everything for a great night out... will definitely come back

Staff very friendly, I didn't wat so can't judge the food.

Went for Sunday Roast based on recommendation. Very overpriced for what you get. I paid £18 and received one (!) slice of Pork (I even asked the server if that was correct as it looked so measly), 3 bland potatoes, 2 pieces of undercooked broccoli, 2 small very undercooked carrots (knife couldn't even cut into them they were so hard), yorkshire pudding and some spring greens. The plate itself is very small so you can't fit much on. To be fair, the pork, gravy and yorkshire was delicious, just nowhere near enough of it considering I'm paying £18. Did get the cheesy leeks as a side which were fantastic, but again at £7 was overpriced. Decent atmosphere and friendly staff. But wouldn't run back.

A fine spot for a relaxed drink: friendly staff and a good range of drinks. Not had a full meal there but the bar food (chips, cold cuts etc.) is always pretty good.

I came to Grove House Tavern because one of my friend recommended that place. Maybe is a new chef and staff or something but I’m a little bit disappointed. Service was bad and none existent and food was average… I finished my meal because I was hungry. Anyway portion of beef was small. I get two pieces of potatoes which ones are been probably just peeled and straight away put in over. We ordered 2 bloody mary… also I think that was just Tabasco, tomato juice and vodka - no garnish, no spices just plane.

One of the best peri peri chicken subs I’ve ever had. Lovely bloke behind the bar

The best roast in south east London! Started with a spicy Bloody Mary and some stuffing balls - yum! Then the pork was melt in your mouth delicious! Fantastic atmosphere with live jazz singer. Love this pub!

I know that pub well 😉 as there one in Brixton. GOOD SERVICE WITH A SMILE ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU SEE 🎬 ACTRESS & ACTOR in There as well as quiz night 🌙 Can be a bit noisy at times more noisy in SPRING SUMMER

One of the few pubs serving Murphy’s in London. Good vibe overall, would recommend.

Pedimos un Sunday roast y la carne era muy fina y estaba templada, la verdura está caliente y muy rica. A partir de las 17:00 había música en directo. El hambiente es agradable.

Great local pub in Camberwell with a buzzing atmosphere and nice crowd. Good selection of beers, ales and food. Offers NHS discount until 7pm Monday-Friday.

Re-posting a review of Mondo Sando _Don't know what happened today but I'm assuming big problems with staffing. Went to grove house tavern for roast today for 3pm. Our group looked at the menu and considered our choices for a while - then went for a mix of pork and beef orders, then when we went to order - only beef left. Ok fine - we'll all have that. After ordering (and already paying!) They said no yorkshires and we asked for some stuffing as a sub. Then they came over and said no leeks and we asked for bonus roasties for a sub. When food came the roasties were really grim - cold and rock solid on the outside - as if they were cooked at noon and left on the side. The beef though was incredible - normally avoid beef at a roast scared of it being dry , but really very nice. On the subs - as mentioned before bonus roasties was not a blessing. On the stuffing , in place of a yorkshire per person we were presented with 5 tiny balls of stuffing , less than one per person , and not really an adequate replacement. We had room for desserts and went to order - and then surprise surprise - no desserts , sold out. Not related to Mondo , but grove house service wasn't great , lots of confusion between staff and lack of understanding our frustrations_

Great place, great vibes, great beers and delicious mondo sandos

Huge pub with indoor and outdoor seating. Very friendly staff, dog friendly as well. Busy family and fun vibe with lots of different events and live music. Great selection of drinks and brilliant service.

Great pub! Lots of outdoor space and good atmosphere. Mondo chefs make amazing sandwiches and even better Sunday roast!! Get the whole chicken

My wife and I had an overpriced Sunday lunch to be honest it was horrible the Yorkshire pudding was awful the veg was all mush but the staff are great

Nice outside seating, good food including good vegan options. Lovely staff

Great local pub with nice selection of craft beers on tap. Also do cocktails. Lunch menu provided by Mondo Sando - the most incredible sandwiches you’ve ever tasted. Try the Hongo Sando - the meatiest vegan sando ever! The potato bits also slap.

Who would have thought tofu could be the filling of the finest vegan sandwich I've ever had the joy of tasting?? Get yourself there and try the MOTHER SUPERIOR...ASAP

All rather nice. Sitting outside on a sunny day is always a good idea.

Nice spacious pub. Friendly staff.

Nice Pub with a good vibe. Outdoor seats. The Mondo Sandwiches are the best sandos you'll find anywhere in South, maybe even all of London

Nice place but a bit more spenny

Whenever we are in the area it's always nice to have a beverage in this pub which also has a pleasant menu.

This is one of our locals. Its great for that because you can pretty much always guarantee a table. But it is quite pricey for the area and the food is overrated. Great for an after work drink though. The staff are always friendly and they have good music.

Been here a few times for Sunday lunch. Always good 👍. But today couldn't eat the Yorkshire pudding. Totally burnt. When mentioned this. Oh sorry 😞 was the response. Will be back. Such a shame. Maybe just a bad day. Hopefully.

Really lovely local pub with friendly staff, a few cocktails and nice sandwiches. Plenty of outdoor seating, some of which is heated. The music inside can be a bit loud for conversation on a Friday night.
