Harrington's in Wandsworth - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The only authentic pie and mash left in London All the nay sayers and bad reviews are from non Londoners or newbies expecting pies full of meat and creamy mash. That ain't pie and mash. It's such a shame our culinary heritage is being down graded by fools.

Really disappointed as we saw so many good reviews. We came on a Saturday at midday and waited over an hour for an omelette and a toastie. No warning on how long it would take until we’d already been waiting for 40 mins. Food was mid and when we came to pay we could only via bank transfer?!?! or pay in cash. We weren’t told about this before we ordered and there were no signs about no card payments.

This is hands down the best pie and mash shop on the planet I have been coming here for many a years and I always look forward to my visit. I’m so surprised to see there’s any bad reviews in a place I like to call home the only thing I’d change is the new layout and put all the old tables back in and get the panda pops back in the window

Sad to say that this was a real disappointment. Pastry was rubbery, filling barely visible, tasteless luke warm liquor and watery bland mash. Two mouthfuls each and we left. For us it was inedible. Was expecting much more based on the reviews and chose this above some exceptional places to eat in Tooting. Never again.

There are many good places to eat in Tooting but it's just off the radar. Finally made a trip because of Harringtons pie mash which became a priority over Vermicelli. I'm so glad I tried it and it was certainly memorable especially the menu as liquor is spelt LICKER. The jellied eels were delicious and they were able to give me extra jelly on a half portion. The liquor was also comforting as you could taste eel in it as well.

This was our first visit to Harringtons, having heard great reviews from friends. We got a takeaway and I'm sorry to say that two out of the three pies we bought were burnt down one edge... not just pleasantly overcooked (I like a bit of dark brown!), but black burnt. I think when the pies are black burnt they should be thrown away, personally, but, who knows, maybe some people like them like that. We don't and so, sadly, won't be back.

I’m embarrassed to say but this was the first time I had been to a traditional pie & mash place in London. Really didn’t know what to expect so don’t know whether it was good or bad. Unfortunately they were out of eels when we visited. The pie tasted similar to a scotch pie. Probably because it’s lamb rather than beef? Plenty of chewy pastry too. I was expecting the licker to have a strong flavour but it was quite bland and inoffensive. I need to return to try the eels.

I've been praising this pie and mash shop and recommending it o people as the best in London for over 25 years. My last two visits have been disappointing. The first I put down as a one off, but they've clearly made a decision to cut down on the filling to save money. There was very little in the pies on my last two visits. Unfortunately, I won't be going back. Sad, as it's a nice family business that I was always happy to support.

I've been eating here since the early 80s. Best P&M ever!!! Love the place, the staff and the food. Shame it's been refurbished as I loved the old long benches, it had so much character. The food is still the same though so they are forgiven.

Came here to try the traditional pie, mash and licker (their spelling!), which cost around £5. The pie had a thin mince filling, the pastry was chewy and tasted like it had been either sat in a warmer for a long time or microwaved for two long. The mash was lukewarm and lumpy, and the licker had no flavour at all. Sadly we had to leave most of it. However, we are Northern, so the option of gravy instead of licker would have made a big difference to us! The main lady serving was lovely, but the younger boy with her was just stood on his phone sadly.

The pie was as tough as old leather and the inside (what you could find of it) was a thin coating of mince, the mash was so stoggy it had to be spooned onto the side of the plate. I will never know how it got such a high rating. I've tasted very much better. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy.

Always delicious food served by very friendly staff. Myself and my brother always make a point to pop in for lunch whenever we are in the neighbourhood.

I cannot remember the last time I was in Harrington’s in Selkirk Rd, Tooting. I just had some delivered to Stonehouse, Gloucester, And the taste has not changed, it was still the same gorgeous flavour, quality. Brought back loads of memories, of when I used to go there regularly on a Saturday night with my dear mum. And if we did not eat in we used to have a take away, where you brought your own containers etc. To put the food in. It beats some of the other pie and mash I have tried in the past. Well done Harrington’s you made my day.

Tip -Top grub and staff. LOVE IT. l always enjoy me visits to Harrington with my pal Ray. Can't wait till it's open again. 👊🏽😎👍🏼

We heard Harrington’s were now delivering to Horsham and as regular customers when we lived in London we had to try and order . Well I would never of believed they would have came all the way to Horsham until this morning when our delivery arrived . It was packaged brilliantly and we wasted no time in tucking in . It was just how we remembered a taste you could never forget absolutely delicious. I would like to thank you Harrington’s for a much missed treat and we will most definitely be ordering again and spreading the word in Horsham Thank you so much 😊

Went there on a Saturday. Its the best pie mash in London. Beats Castles and Manzes hands down. Pies are always well cooked, almost burnt but that goes great with the liquor and mash. Mash is buttery and better than most high end restaurants I've been to! Washed down with a shandy bass, my daughter has to have the Cream soda... a perfect lunch!

This is an old traditional English food restaurant in re modernised premises Serving Pie & mash liquor and jellied eels one of only a few of its type in London. Excellent food and service. Last time I went there was over 20 years ago with...

What a great atmosphere to have your pie and mash - the best way to feel “yeah, I’m in London!” Delicious food!! Havent tried their eels still but it’s on my list - if you’re around tooting def pay them a visit ;)

This is a great little spot for a good meal. Heart warming. Good value. Excellent value in fact. Quick service. Really good taste. Especially as winter draws in - I can think of nothing better then to sit in here and have a good meal...

Being a Londoner I feel it my duty to sample all of the traditional pie and mash shops in London before they dis and changing areas disappear due to high rents. The pie was okay, the mash, typical of such shops lovely, the liquor was...

I've eaten in plenty of Pie and Mash shops. Harringtons is the best by a mile. Pity it's so far away. Should re open the one in Wandsworth Road.

The decor has changed since my last visit, but the food is STILL AS GOOD AS IT EVER WAS....having eaten here many times over the last 60 years, today I was not disappointed again. The food was that excellent I had to have a second...

Went for my regular visit when back in the country and was surprised to see the old place has had a total refurbishment..gone are the original marble tables gone is the Galleon on the wall that first took my attention in 1957 and gone are all the memories being taken there as a child by my its new it's different I just wish they had tried to recreate the old atmosphere .but I guess it's all about the food and that is still in my opinion the very best pie and mash you can buy..it's changed but still the best.

I had not been here for years. Remember weekly visits as a child, and as I stood at the doorway, memories flooded back. Although the exterior has changed (updated for the better) the warm, London experience came back with a bang. The same people work...

Although Harringtons has had a massive amount of money spent on it and a super duper re-Ferb the quality of the food is just as good as it ever was, The new interior will take some getting used to, but does feel really clean and...
