Southwark Tavern in Southwark

staff were great and helpful! alex is lovelyyy

Christmas shopping at the market and stopped her for drink. Great beer selection on tap!

Nice little place with cool little rooms

Great pub. Alastair behind the bar is a legend.

An unforgettable pint with the woman of my life on a Saturday evening before taking a plane back to Barcelona. Perfect service by the ladies in charge of the bar. We will be back!

Great pub with a great atmosphere. Lovely staff and quality cuisine. I highly recommend

Nice pub in a busy area. Close to London Bridge and great for an after work beer

Super nice pub, typical decor, stained glass windows, great atmosphere, friendly and smiling service, great value for money! Plus, it’s good!

Table book arrived was showed to our table nothing mentioned by the barman. I ordered our meals and drinks via the app 10mins later was told no food would be served at this time & a refund would be issued but only for the food as the drinks were already on their way, I would rather of had a full refund so we could go elsewhere. Edit I have now received a full refund.

Poor service, delayed delivery of food and drinks with no reasonable explanation. Mediocre roasts. Won’t visit again.

Very good food and good service. Good quality price

Excellent food, nice cosy space and attentive staff. Lori has taken very good care of us. Definitely recommend!

We went to eat fish and chips and everything was delicious. The waiters are very friendly and kind. Good atmosphere with English people.

Cozy, nice pub where you can relax with a drink and a snack.

Joeseph was really welcoming and very quick service

Don neufville was amazing, such a great little addition to the vibes of the pub

Fantastic pub near borough market. Big atmosphere and good environment. Very busy on a Thursday managed to get a table and service good. London prices but well worth the effort. Enjoy.

Went out for drinks with a friend, Thulasi served us and she was amazing! Super quick service

Good pub, nice downstairs vibe was nice and had some really great service from Joseph

Joseph is the best..... too bad the bouncers suck.

Fantastic pub. Jack sadler is the top bar man!

Jack saddler is the best barman

great vibes, great staff and a really nice place to head after work

Typical pub right near London Bridge. Enjoyable experience with Sunday Roast and beers all around.

We were made very welcome and the meal was very good. Good quality and good price We will come back

Alistair was a wonderful host He made us feel so welcomed Big up alistair

Had drinks, great service and good cider.

Great bar. Love it here. Great beer. Good times. Good vibes.

I walked in for a Sunday Roast with my wife and was greeted at the bar by Jack who recommended us a great pairing of drinks to go with our roast dinner. The food was amazing and was as good as I was told from the barman. 10/10 would go again!!

Great vibe, not had the food and could do with 1 extra person on the bar but the atmosphere is exceptional this close to London Bridge

Perfectly quintessential English pub. Never disappoints when i come.

I loved the pints, they were very good 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋🖤 💋

Lovely place with a great atmosphere, amazing that it’s an old prison! Downstairs you can see the original prison architecture, highly recommend a visit

Always love a pint here with a view of Shard and next to Borough Market!

Amazing place…. Love I Food is amazing

Great place. Loved the cheese bread and the beer.

Great pub! Perfect for a date, or to come here with friends. And they have an amazing pub quiz

Eddie and cluster was brilliant

Very nice place to stop by for a quick pint

Great place. Great welcome! Excellent hamburger Special kindness Very attentive to food allergies! An allergen-free salad was prepared especially for me 👌 a big thank you to you for the commercial gesture 🙏

Massive underpour yet charge £7 a pint :(

The service was nice the stuff was great the food was delicious i raccomend very trusting of the style of the pub very Characteristics...

Alastair had been wonderful this evening. Jack makes great cocktails. Always a great vibe here

Proper English traditional pub. The drinks are great and the service is super friendly! The cellar area feels like travelling back in time. Alistair Jack were in the bar and they were so nice and friendly! I definitely recommend if you're in Borough area.

Alistar was a star, best pub in London, would be here everyday if we could, make a trip and enjoy your visit, pint of Guinness on me.

Really nice pub in a great location. Buzzy atmosphere and staff were really nice too.

Nic place. Shame about the beer. If you want Lager, Cider, Spirits or wine it's ok. Real ale disaster. Very poor quality ales.

The food was tasty, but not very hot. However, we were given another drink each after making the comments. The staff were very courteous.

Thanks Troy—Great food great drinks—Josh

Nice food and good atmosphere, highly recommended

Ambience is so good. The food tastes better. One of the great pub I have been. Large space can go with groups. Have space for parties and celebrations

I recently visited Southwark Tavern and had a fantastic experience. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot to unwind. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring we felt well taken care of throughout our meal. The menu offered a great variety of options, and everything we ordered was delicious. The highlight for me was the beautifully cooked fish and chips—crispy batter and perfectly flaky fish. The selection of craft beers was also impressive, complementing our meal perfectly. The pub's charming decor adds to its character, and it’s a great place for both casual dining and special occasions. Overall, Southwark Tavern exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait to return. Highly recommended!

Good atmosphere, good team, bartender Ady is generally cool, he suggested what to choose for beer. Respect to the establishment and a cool place with a special vibe for spending time in a warm comfortable atmosphere with a pint of Peronni

Had a later meal on a Saturday evening, food was good. Service was good. Very busy but good all the same. Would recommend.

Troy pours the best pints in south london

Was served by Eddy, an absolute gentleman, quick service and efficient, very friendly !!

Really poor service. Our food (and cutlery and sauces) took ages, and at one point in the meal the waiter stood at the head of the table and asked if anyone wanted a random roast chicken that another table didn't want. We took it, but were so underwhelmed by the quality of the food that we didn't actually eat it. Drinks upstairs were fine, so if you must go here then stay for drinks and avoid the rest.

Classic London pub with a native decoration, all tables busy, fort found first taken but no one came to clean it, even we asked for it. Pint of Pale Ale smooth the cleaning affair issue but trying to get the second was just a titanic task, difficult to catch the bar wait attention after the crowd being wild for buzz !

Really sad to share that we had a very poor experience at Southwark Tavern on Sunday. We arrived for our reservation at 2.45pm. It wasn’t clear whether it was table service or not, so some of us headed to the bar to order drinks for everyone. We sat down and once we decided what to order, we flagged down a waiter who was clearly mega busy and asked him if we could order. Busy we understood but he clearly was not happy at all and took his time coming back to us barely acknowledging us when he did. We eventually were able to order but he seemed confused on what we wanted and our food took an absolute age to come. We witnessed other tables send food back and other tables leave plenty of food unfinished on their plates which worried us about the quality. The food eventually arrived in stages via a dumb waiter as we were sat downstairs. Several of us had roasts, others had dishes with chips and salad. The chips were cold and the veg and salad with the food was flat and withered. We had to ask twice for cutlery whilst our food got even colder and the grumpy waiter snapped that he had to bring it down from upstairs. You could set up a cutlery station as they do in other places to get round this as clearly the waiter had a lot on. By this stage we were so hungry we would have eaten the table, so we didn’t complain and just ate our meals. We also had children with us who were completely overwhelmed and hungry so we didn’t say anything. However the roasts were soggy and the rest of the dishes were pretty poor. The grumpy waiter could not have appeared less interested in people if he tried. I almost wanted to go to him and say - please quit, you seem very unhappy. The place was clearly understaffed. Eventually someone came to help the waiter who seemed much more enthusiastic and on the ball. Sadly this was too late to benefit us. Also during our time there we visited the toilets and both the men’s and women’s were disgusting. They were messy and smelly. All in all, a disappointing experience and definitely would not recommend.

A very bizarre Sunday roast experience. I think from the off it was all very interesting. Having to repeat a simple roast order 4 times before it has been attempted to put through the system to then looking baffled as to what a lager shandy is…. Which later had to be taken back and changed, as we had been poured an ale shandy :( I’d asked for no Yorkshire pudding and if it could be swapped for an extra roast potato instead to then find we had been charged for an entire portion of extra potatoes (not what I had asked) and the Yorkshire pudding was still brought with the order anyways. When asked about what this issue was with the food I can only describe what looked to be a pure baffled expression of blankness. To be simply put if I wanted a portion of extra potatoes I would ask for a portion of extra potatoes. To request if I can swap a Yorkshire should be a fairly simple yes or no response. To then be asked what would you like me to do about the situation the flummoxed staff member asked me if I would like him to take the Yorkshire pudding off my plate. (See below photo… he did not take said Yorkshire off my plate ;) haha). The potatoes that did come I believe were aunt Bessie’s frozen potatoes sold may I add at £5 per portion. These could only be described as paper mache cardboard esque and wouldn’t wish upon my worst enemies. Throw this in with a nice plate of under cooked raw and cold parsnips which after mentioning to the staff, to which response I was asked if I’d like more to be sent which I politely accepted did not come in the end and I’m only wondering still if the arrived upon our departure. We had also requested mustard and horseradish only for the baffled bar staff to return with an empty mustard pot and no means of getting anything out even if we could by way of spoon/knife. No horseradish was delivered :( All in all maybe the most bizarre customer service and in all honesty worst food I’ve had in quite some time. We were told upon arrival table service was done downstairs I just wonder if they served the same food down below.

Went here with a few friends and loved the downstairs area! Cool isolated cellars to have a chat in.

Love the draught beer range in this pub.Always something new to try.

Great beer range. Some nice bar snacks too, especially the nduja croquettes!

Lovely afternoon, great service and great choice of drinks. Will be back. Returned and was well looked after by Darren and his team. Highly recommend. Love this pub!

One of the best spots in London for late night drinks 🍸 the staff are lovely and helpful. I would definitely recommend this pub to friends

Fantastic location by borough market. Great range of craft beer which has changed every time I’ve visited. Often have something from Deya which is a bonus! Tasty bar snacks too if you’re not stuffed from borough market!

Cant wait to visit again. Exclusive place indeed

We had a great time in this Pub. Our drinks served by Troy :)

Wow hoooo, what a great place to be in. I love it

Came here today! Food and service was top notch!!! Great atmosphere and quick service! Will definitely be back!!

Such an awesome place to hangout with friends. Be it drinks, food , stuff or ambiance, everything just right on spot.

Excellent location to cheer up with amazing drinks & food. Stuffs were friendly and happy to serve guests. Must visit place.

Had a great time here at the southwark tavern, great spot to grab a drink

Great team member. Thank you for showing me a great time at your venue

Love this pub! Amazing beer selection, great traditional food and friendly staff!! :)

Lovey food, didn't have to wait too lo for the food to arrive Waitress got us some water so we didn't have to que at the bar again Would definitely return!!

I always pop in here when I’m in the area, always guaranteed a warm welcome from Darren and the team. Drinks selection is the best around with something for all palettes. Fish and chips was outstanding once again!

Good gluten free beer, not many options to eat.

I had a wonderful fish and chips.

A typical British pub. There are various types of alcohol. It's quite noisy and crowded during peak hours (around 8am to 11pm). But it's good to go once.

This pub is absolutely amazing. You should pop by if you are around town. Connor is a rock star at the bar. Love it

This is a great pub to stop by and have a beer while passing by.

Over priced rose but worth it as the bar crew are great

Pretty nice Pub in the center of Borough! love it, nice interior, great beer selection and good food. nice place for a pint or two lovely staff!

Um verdadeiro pub ingles, proximo ao borough market, com comida muito boa, preco justo e atendimento excelente!!!!!!

Fantastic food and the craft beers range is excellent. There's seating downstairs which is really cosy to get away from the hustle of London Bridge!

Great pub close to London Bridge. Craft beer range was interesting and the service was excellent considering how busy it was

Great spot for lunch in a great location, people were so nice. Would highly recommend it for people wanting a drink after checking out the markets near by

We eat very well, we spend the right amount, we are back. The guys are very kind.

Abi was especially outstanding as well as all staff. Highly recommend

Lovely pub very close to Borough Market, great choice of beers, wines and cocktails. Great decor and atmosphere, with indoor and some outdoor areas. Didn't get food, but what I saw looked nice. It was a great pit stop before venturing into the market 😁

Good ambiance, Many choice of beers

Absolutely amazing people, thanks for the A!

Really loved the food here, classic pub food, can't go wrong really. Lots and lots of selections for the beers, cool atmosphere, perfect location. No garden but the barrels out the front are a lovely place to drink. Will be returning thank you Southwark Tavern team!

love this place, very cosy, but also lively; lovely guy think his name was troy, served me a drink, very respectful and welcoming. no complaints!

Nice pub at the entrance of Borough Market.

Salt, earth, brine, these are the key notes dancing on my taste buds after eating a disgustingly large oyster across the street (my lawyer has requested that i note this was not related to the pub). However, after a solid kickback at the southwark tavern with my friends I was able to face the dark passenger that rides with me through this lonesome trail we call life. The egg was good.

Nice, traditional pub. Good selection of drinks. Lovely to stand out the front on a nice day and watch the world go by.

I had a recently expired voucher and the manager honoured it. Great service and cool, cave-style atmosphere downstairs!

Very nice pub. Nice friendly staff. Although seems expensive.
