My wife and I were looking for some Thai food and saw this on Google and were a bit apprehensive seeing that it was also a pub. Walking in we were immediately greeted by the guys behind the bar, even when they had a number of customers they were serving, and asked what drinks they can get for us. We were clearly confused on where the Thai restaurant was and the guy was very friendly and showed us the way to the stairs and we took our drinks upstairs. The restaurant had just the chef to cook and wait tables and he was very friendly and the food tasted great. A bit weird when you're not expecting that setup with the pub but once we were there we loved it. Again, super friendly bar and chef upstairs and we felt very welcomed and comfortable the entire time.

Me and my wife stubbled across this little gem on the way to our hotel. Family run pub with Fantastic service that make you feel very welcome. The bar staff Richard and Monty were so welcoming and friendly that we went back day. Richard and Monty you are top guys.

We had a wonderful meal at Rudds. A fabulous combination of an excellent bar, run by two wonderful guys and a superb Thai chef serving up the most delicious food. We enjoyed a sharing platter for 2, followed by a Chicken Green Curry and a Beef Curry. My partner enjoyed an Aspall cider and I enjoyed a tasty Blue Moon Belgian White Beer. All in a superbly decorated bar/restaurant that was very pleasant. I would thoroughly recommend this venue.

So, Rudds management reply to my 5* review and tell me adamantly they "don't serve halal food" yet the ignorant owners stick a deliveroo sign up with the words "HALAL" in Arabic. 🤣 (See photo). I attended this premises and pointed out that a bar serving Halal food is bit of a faux pas & the friendly bar staff and I laughed about it. I placed my order in confidence the chicken was halal. It most likely was. Not that the management will know! So for providing false information, it was poor food, poor service and poor atmosphere. 1 star (if that).

An unusual pub. It's a bit cheesy and a bit smart at the same time. Not great layout inside and could really do with a bit of a refresh. The staff are friendly and the Thai food is really nice, mainly come here for the food. Also nice that they have blue moon on tap which is a nice change.

It is a nice bar, the only reason for the 3 stars is that it feels out of place. In a commercial area, it's very grand and it feels like it should be in a suburban town centre. The bar itself is totally fine, and having a pool table in central London is a novelty factor which will help them

Rudds is a stop on your journey in London, very friendly staff and good drinks. Yet, add to that the THAI Food on offer prepared by Mr. Jane and you have a WINNER. Fab food, cleanly prepared, beautifully presented, with flavours to rival or outdo the "Royal Thai" restaurants in Bangkok. Highly recommmended! *felt bad about not having shot any pics of the dishes. My bad.

Came in with my 27 year old son for a couple and a badly needed et late lunch only to be told that because we were only two we could not take even a small table on the ground floor because groups drinking after work might well need space for more colleagues and friends. We were told to try the mezzanine floor upstairs only for the same barman to follow us up to say he didn’t want us there or on the bigger floor a little further up. Why did we bother? We left. Fortunately there was a lively friendly hospitable Fullers Pub just up the road next door.

Stayed a few hours here while we had a conference across the road. This is a lovely modern pub but with that 'Victorian' feel due to the use of tasteful shades of grey in the decor and furnishings. It's small on the outside but big inside and comfortable, across two floors with free Wi-Fi and 'gentlemen's facilities' that would rival a 5* hotel!. It's typically 'London Prices' for a wide selection of specialist beers and lagers but £4 for a pint of Fosters isn't bad when you consider you could pay more than that in some Manchester establishments where I live. The bar team are really friendly and lively. I look forward to going here again. Please fix the main door to the mens bathrooms so it closes properly, the reflection in the mirror over the faucet means anyone passing can see you having a pee!

This venue needs a lesson in good customer service. It is unacceptable to talk to your customers in a degrading, and patronising manner. It is also unacceptable to shout at your customers, and refer to them as 'you people'. Considering it was a group of black people, I can only imagine what the owner of the bar who used this term, meant by that. It's an absolutely awful way to conduct business, and you should be ashamed. I suggest staying clear of this bar as you're likely to be welcomed with similar rude treatment, particularly if you're a person of colour

This establishment is absolutely terrible, the customer service is extremely poor. I felt very degraded by the owner of this bar with how she spoke to my friends and I, considering we’re paying customers. Not only did she make derogatory statements, she didn’t even apologise. I would never visit this place again or recommend anyone host anything here. They care more about making a quick coin than the comfort and experience of their customers. Unless you want to be shouted at and treated as less, I strongly advise you visit another bar!

Situated opposite the Mermaid conference centre behind Blackfriars station, Rudds bar has a fabulous upstairs area which can be reserved for private bookings. My firm needed a place to watch the football and have a drink to celebrate an annual conference. Bathrooms are nearby, there's a smaller bar which was staffed just for our party, comfy sofas, tables, televisions and even a pool table. Service was great, there's a fun atmosphere downstairs too, they put on some good food and on Wednesdays all 'Irish' drinks are cheap (Hop House 13, Guinness, Jamesons...). Strongly recommend this over the other bars in the area, as this isn't as much of a tourist trap and the staff are fantastic.

The Thai menu is short and sorry, and the food hardly matches the descriptions. We couldn't tell the difference between the veg and meat spring rolls. The prawn crackers were too greasy for anyone in the table to finish. Red curry seems to be yellow curry with a sprinkling of dried chilli, and the peanut chicken had no peanuts. Everything has broccoli though, so at least you're getting one of your five a day. The Thai food was served with a knife and fork rather than the traditional fork and spoon. Our poor waiter had no idea which dishes she was bringing to the table half the time, and the timing was off enough to have part of the table starting at their finished plates while others were still waiting for theirs. All in all, this place seems to be fit for beer and beer only. Avoid eating.

Lovely hotel in a very busy bit. Not a place to try to drive to as there is little parking, pollution charges. Taxi, Underground good to go. Black Taxi a bit more expensive than Uber but Uber drivers have to Pay £50 for entering the City centre so to be fair use black cabs. Either that or book the same Uber driver in and out to help cover the additional cost. All you would expect in the hotel and bar as you would expect for this high-level establishment.

A must-see for anyone who appreciates the decorative arts, for anyone looking for people who dared to live their dreams and change the state of things and confront the standard. William Morris was all this and much more. The visit is inspiring, I was particularly touched that he believed in his wife and encouraged her to go further at a time when women were appendages to their husbands and female education was not considered necessary or useful. What's more, he believed in other women and provided trades so that they could be more autonomous. After visiting the gallery, I came to understand why there are so many antique shops in the neighbourhood and why Morris' prints can be found in many local businesses. There's a market that sells post-walk treats and a souvenir shop for all budgets. Entry to the permanent exhibition is free and the staff are friendly and helpful.
