Running Horses in Bexley - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Went to a wedding reception here, traditional pub, nice atmosphere and lovely views of the river Thames.

Watched the england game in here last week. Fun little raffle to join in. And then they brought food out just after half time. Food to go with the football. Not many pubs do that. The atmosphere was electric. The beers are cold and the staff are soo friendly and helpful. Fantastic pub to go into. Definitely be going back 👌

Lovely time, complimentary food and really enjoyed my time when watching the football. 100% recommend.

A traditional old style London pub. The staff were great, so friendly and helpful The locals the same. The beer was good The carvery was good traditional English Sunday lunch carvery. I only gave it a 3 because I don't want people to think it Michellin standard. However the service was as friendly and helpful as a top restaurant

A step back in time, looked like a pub from.the 70s/80s ;0)

Highly recommend trying their Sunday carvery. The staff are always helpful and friendly. The pub also has really nice decor and character 👌

Great carvery on Sundays. Friendly, local pub, live music.

Lovely pub. Had a couple of nice beers and enjoyed playing pool - good selection of music playing too, for a Saturday lunchtime.

Great little boozer right on water front friendly staff

Meal was superb. Waitress was very friendly will definitely return

A top noch roast dinner on a Sunday and the owners and staff are very friendly . Great pub especially for a Sunday Roast

Brilliant food value for money is great, service is good

Lovely atmosphere and dog friendly.

Lovely little function room over looking Riverside Gardens.

"Had a takeout order, and the food traveled well. Even at home, the flavors were as vibrant as they were in the restaurant."

Nice pub. Good selection of beers. Didn't try the food. Service was friendly. So where the punters.

Excellent Sunday carvery today. Would recommend a visit.

First time visiting for the bingo evening which was lovely, very welcoming. My mum and I enjoyed the evening. Excited to try to roast.

food superb , never disappoints. all the girls service is amazing as well as the two ladies that are seating people , highly recommend

Need to update there beer variety

Too expensive to go there 5 pound a drink Or more

Great place, wonderful staff. Couldn't do more to make our function perfect.

Brilliant little find. Saw reviews on bexleyheath news and gossip and thought I'd try. Lovely restaurant upstairs. Waitresses bring you drinks. You get called up to get your food so there's a structure with the queue. Absolutely fantastic food. Had steak n kiddie pie, cauliflower cheese, crispy cooked roasties, sprouts and York pud. So filling couldn't finish it all.

Nice cosy pub with decent beer. No food served weekdays. Dog friendly.

Fantastic Carvery- you cannot beat the Running Horses for value and quality. Turkey and gammon for me yesterday both delicious. Always busy and full of regulars. Book to avoid disappointment. Guinness decent too!

A very local place for the area but friendly and good prices. Right on the Thames too so views are great

Very good sunday lunch food and service great will definitely return

Love this historic pub with great river views and great service.

Typical local pub, I liked the atmosphere, we visited late afternoon

Bean for Sunday lunch on several weekends, had a great time. The meal was lovely and at£12.50 a head very hood value, need to book your table in advance.

Nice pub and a nice outside garden area and smoking booths for the puffers

Beautiful Riverside pub, plenty of character, very friendly, enjoyed the Sunday carvery with homemade desserts 😋 - need to book for 1 or 2 o'clock

Great pub with a function room upstairs that is straight out of the 70s but in a good and attractive way. The staff could not have been any more helpful and even ran downstairs for any drinks they didn't have in the upstairs bar. A lovely night in a lovely pub. Many thanks to all.

Sunday roast is as fabulous as it's always been. Very well run business and great staff. The new owners are really pushing the boat out to improve the pub but by keeping it's authentic look.

Redecorated and looks lovely. Owners very friendly and welcoming. Food was delicious.

Good food but drink let the side down. Waiting to long

Absolutely fantastic place, especially for a family gathering meeting friends reasonable price

Great pub watched football here had a good evening

A comfortable pub, with plenty of choice of food and drink. It has a customers car park as well as good bus and rail links.

Nice place located in Erith with small charm. Environment is warm and staff is friendly. Enjoy a cold beverage and chips.

Food and staff very nice but charged £1.00 for a glass of tap water!!! No No No

Great place to be honest, nice friendly people

Great landlords, fantastic vibes in there....get down there rapid!!!

Lovely patron, friendly staff and wonderful customers with a open community spirit. Thoroughly enjoyed our time there listening to Suspiciously Elvis. Fabulous afternoon spent drinking in the sun.

After a long walk along the River Thames to Plumstead and back, we cooled down with a few beers here. We sat outside in the sun, dog was sheltered in the pod. Friendly staff and locals. Be back soon

Hired the small bar for a private function, and really pleased I did. Excellent buffet and friendly bar staff. Would definately recommend and look forward to using them again!

Staff were all polite and nice had a nice little saloon bar only thing i would say is when you have a function on in there is dont let randoms walk in to use the toilets and the lemonade had gone i had vodka lemonade and lime and could not drink it but all other drinks were fine the buffet was brilliant loved the meat flower had a nice selection of foods

We were recommended to visit here when wanting to drink locally, we had a nice time. Friendly landlady and seemed like a pleasant crowd of regulars.

Well run family pub. Friendly atmosphere. Good entertainment. Great location

Friendly, been to this establishment only once, had a Guinness, all was good, and most friendly staff and locals

Held My 40th here from going to see the venue to clearing up a amazing place staff are one in a million and will definitely recommend to everyone can't wait to try the carvery next

Nice bozzee , sat outside on river front !

Went there for a friend's 60th. Haven't been there for years improved greatly

DJ'ed here on Friday evening. Many congratulations to the birthday boy!

Great selection of food at the carvery and all tasted nice and friendly atmosphere

A most excellent place to enjoy a superb carvery and Sunday lunch with your family. The staff are extremely attentive and polite and the ale is superb too

Had Sunday carvery today. Staff very friendly and helpful, especially as I was in a sling. I enjoyed the carvery very much. Thank you.

Great sunday lunch for under a tenna. Clean comfortable with a nice view across the river. Will definitely eat here again and will recommend to others.

Just had the Sunday carvery, can fully recommend it

Really enjoy it here, staff are friendly, love the decor and views to the river! Food is carvery and excellent!

Lovely carvery and the staff were great

Two stars for having a pool table and dart board. But lager was flat, and there was a general theme of 'grottiness'.

Great landlord and landlady, the carvery on a Sunday is without a doubt the best in the area by far. The staff are friendly and always smiling and laughing. By far the only pub worth visiting in the area

Very friendly service and nice atmosphere 👌

Friendly pub. Friendly service.

Very good night the landlord Very good company

The food was lovely and the staff definitely be coming back

Only went into the public bar as drinking outside. But it was clean and staff were very nice. Plenty of parking back of pub. Will go back again

We went in on Erith Made festival weekend, great sea shanty singing upstairs and some good bbq food served in the little huts outside 👌🏼

Great pub great food great music

very nice pub, nice food, reasonable prices and well presented. staff friendly and helpful

Spiritual home of the liver sausage sandwich

Absolutely dreadful place - beer tasted like soap and staff had a positively bovine temperament. They also enforce an illegal policy by asking people to disclose their medical history. Avoid unless you want bad beer and service attitude similar to the USSR's bureaucracy.

Lovely friendly pub, very welcoming after a long cycle along the Thames from East London, lucky to have been able to get a table outside for 5 in the sun, without booking, nice Guinness. We were a bit late for lunch options - our fault, but no veggie option for veggies amongst us - except chips, mind you quite nice chips!

Very nice old skool clean down to earth pub

Only stayed for one drink but Guinness was great. Cost £9 for two drinks and paid on card. They intentionally charged me £10 and gave me a pound coin back out of the till which was a bit weird.

Great experience. Gonna comeback there again.

I was with friends I'm from Liverpool nice to have a booth for a few hrs ever n tho we never booked one but had a great time

Very friendly helpful staff had a nice meal. Even though they wasn't doing meals yet because of lockdown. But they happily accommodated us with a meal 😋 we sat outside in a nice warm pod thank you 😊

LOOK'S great From outside But I don't Go in ever ??

Good food excellent carvery good drinks. Reasonable price too. Friendly staff and good position for a walk along the riverfront.

What's to say, ALWAYS drop in when passing. Soooo welcoming.

Cosy little boozer. "Local pub for local people" if you know what I mean? Some bloke in their last time I went openly running his drug line from a table with his misses and kid so everyone could hear. Not the establishments fault I guess

Best Sunday roast in the area!!

Lovely place, friendly staff. I've never eaten here yet, the menu looks scrumptious so I'll definitely put it on my "to do" list. Don't forget to write to your MP and tell them that you are concerned about the Government taxing pubs to death, we're losing about 3 pubs a day. The pub is the heart of British culture, let's keep it alive.

Came with my hubby to this pub to meet with my daughter, on arrival my husband asked for a "peroni" the bar maids attitude was disgusting. Her response.." can you see it? if you cant see it we dont sell it"!!!!I replied by stating that it also comes in a bottle which is why he asked, she snarled and said all we have is what you see.The glasses were dirty, the sofas and tables were sticky. Best thing was the music!!Will not be returning in a hurry, takes card payments but you have to spend over £10 and they charge you £1 to use it!! im sure this isnt allowed

Nice pub, with friendly bar staff and a great atmosphere. Chuck in a pool table and juke box to boot and you've got a pretty cool place. Only thing letting it down is its beer selection: bog standard largers on tap, which is a shame but not a deal breaker.

Very bad. Made us wait while they served everyone that arrived after us. We waited for half an hour and then a lady aggressively asked us what we wanted and was very rude to us. We left and went somewhere else nearby where we had a lovely meal and great service.

Nice pub good atmosphere nice fresh rolls and Sunday carvery is excellent and well worth a visit 👍🏼

The pub itself is beautiful. The staff are quite rude and favour regulars over new customers, sometimes to the point that they ignore you. The card payment system is silly as well.

Community pub...friendly staff... cheap drinks...

Great afternoon. Raising money for Cancer.

Little delapidated, yet cozy pub next to Erith Quay. Locals and barstaff were Really friendly however.

Good beer, good food, good fun.

Nice pub - friendly staff - good old fashioned feel

Lovely pub. Friendly staff and customers. I work nearby and have passed by it frequent times and never thought to go in. Last week I celebrated my birthday with a drink with friends. Had a fantastic time.

Lovely food but the wait was far too long for a carvery.

Sorry no comments only there for a funeral

Very expensive only for the locals tense atmosphere

I have been here several times now on a Sunday and had the carvery. I want to let people know how brilliant it is. The food is fantastic they offer so many different meats and pies etc. The women that run the restaurant are the best they are so friendly it s almost like going to a relations for a meal because you feel so at home there. There is never any queing and they bring out fresh roast potatoes and veg all the time. Its the best carvery I have ever been too.
