Have been coming here for years. The best pub, the best food, the best service. An amazing place. Simon is the greatest host. Used to work in this area but now travel to still visit this amazing place. Almost pointless to write a review as so great.

One of my favourite pubs in London, it always has a brilliant atmosphere. Usually sit outside but the rain meant we went indoors. Brilliant choice of beers, we opted for a pint of Budvar eachwhich was delicious. It was the first time I have eaten at Lord Nelson and the choice of burgers for meat eaters and vegetarians was amazing and it took a while for me to choose what to have. The well written menu is amusing and descriptive. Decided against the Farage (joking) and had the turf and surf which was scampi on beefburger with fries and salad and coleslaw my friend had the Soprano which she said was delicious too, it was chicken or beefburger with pesto mozerella and tomato...... Staff are obviously happy to be working in the busy pub and they were a credit to the owner. Cannot wait for my next visit to try another flavour of burger. The price for a burger and sides included is unbelievable for London

Excellent, quirky pub full of laugh and nostalgia. The bar staff are warm and friendly providing an amazing 1st class service with a smile and laughter to boot. The Nelson has an amazing selection of drinks and the burger…..just wow, wow and wow!!! If you are a music lover there is an eclectic taste of music piping through the speakers. Come and visit the Nelson for a fantastic, once (hopefully more occasions) in a lifetime experience.

I It’s a bit warm inside, likely due to the lack of air conditioning or it not working. However, the outdoor seating is comfortable and you can enjoy a pleasant breeze.

I've been to worse boozers, but this one feels slightly tired, with grungy decor that would probably have impressed circa 2005. The place had a loud, excited atmosphere which wasn't quite what I wanted for a Wednesday evening catch-up with a friend. Food-wise, they offer a remarkable array of burgers, though the 'Juicy Lucy' I ordered wasn't quite up to Minneapolitan standards.

We visited here as we were staying in the Travelodge opposite and I'm glad we did. It's a quirky spot with friendly staff. I had a hard time choosing which burger I wanted as there are so many options but went for the Deez Nuts burger. This burger has peanut butter, hash browns, pepperoni and mushrooms, served with chips and coleslaw and everything was delicious. Excellent value for money, especially for London and a really cool atmosphere.

Quirky and original pub in Southwark, London. Well worth the trip. The Nelson Burger was, without any exaggeration, one of the best things I've eaten in London. You can tell it's prepared with fresh ingredients. An amazing portion and so very tasty, all for a very reasonable price. The menu has a long list of different burgers with a variety of toppings. I certainly will be back several times to work my way through the other burgers! Staff were very friendly with a quick service. I believe it's quite busy on a weekend as it's so popular. Can't recommend this place enough!!

Maybe the best selection of veggie/vegan burgers in London? Would give it 5* if it wasn't for this interaction at the bar: Me: Are all of the beers vegan? Guy At Bar: I don't know. (awkward silence) Me: Do you think any of the other guys behind the bar would know? GAB: Don't think so. (Eventually turns towards the other guys at the bar) Are the beers vegan? Other guy behind bar: Don't know. SCENE The staff definitely need some training. Following the advice on your menu (asking before leaving a review) really didn't help on this occasion.

The burgers are imaginative flavours, big portions and cooked with care. If I had to find a negative it would be that I couldn't see a way of buying the home made chili sauce that comes in a squeezy bottle with the burgers - so so so good I want some for home!

Hash in borough market was well worth the visit. The queue moves quickly and the food is worth the wait. My hubby had the pulled pork burger which was fresh, delicious and messy to eat, but soooo worth it! I had the mac'n'cheese and fried chicken - omg, amazing! It is street food, no place to sit, so just grab and go, eat while taking in the atmosphere of the market.
