Southwark Tavern in Southwark

Great place for a variety of beers in the heart of London close to the Shard. Super friendly staff and great atmosphere! Got one of the best service I have recieved in London from the guy named Ollie. He is a keeper and company should acknowledge that. True bar tender! Highly recommended.

Spacious and well-kept place, tables also on the -1 floor. Good scotch egg and chicken roast. Scotch egg + chicken roast + a beer = £34, large portions. In hindsight I would have satisfied myself with just the roast chicken

Lovely staff food and was amazing.

Good experience. We will repeat

Fantastic traditional British pub, greatly located next to Borough market and London Bridge station. Good selection of both tap and draught beers, easy to book, reccomend the cellars downstairs, wife and kids loved it.

Troy made our trip great. Right nice pub!

Friendly staff! Great atmosphere! That’s right nice

Perfect location for a pint or two after lunch in Borough Market. Great selection of beer in proper pub atmosphere. Say hi Troy when you’re here!

Great pub in the heart of Southwark St. If you’re overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of Borough market and want a comfy place to sit and have a beer, this is the spot. Clean, tidy & friendly with good prices for the area.

My experience was very pleasant, the service was very good, the atmosphere with the music is super good, I really recommend going to the place

Couldn’t recommend this place more, great staff, selection and right next to borough market!!!

Perfect service from Troy, the best!

Troy was the highlight of my day. He served us with a smile and was genuine and kind.

Very good pub. The lovely troy gave me and my group 50% off and he was very lovely

Great pub with a great atmosphere

Troy was really helpful, professional and friendly. Made the visit a better experience. Thanks.

Roy was absolutely amazing. Chatting and being overall friendly and he gave me a free beer! The food is absolutely delicious and the overall ambiance is lovely

Best tavern around Borough Market. Cheers to Oana who helped us with the table.

Nice place to eat, kind staff and good price

Bar staff amazing Kara was fabulous 😍

Troy was a great server. Kind and friendly service.

Nice traditional pub. Friendly staff and warm!

Lovely staff super quick service!! Overall lovelyyyyyy place for a lil catch up

Every time we go on a trip we pass by there, we love everything, highly recommended

Great experience ! Love the drinks food and the vibes ! Cant wait to come back our server was top notch !!

Good and tasty food 100% recomendable.

Great experience and good hospitality

Cozy and pleasant place. A very nice and friendly pub with delicious beers and tasty food. The three of us ordered the Slow-Cooked Steak & Pale Ale Pie, served with buttery mash, buttered leeks, savoy cabbage, and red wine sauce. The food was delicious, but unfortunately, the inside of my portion was cold, which slightly spoiled the experience. Because of this, I'm giving one star less. Nonetheless, thank you for the experience—definitely worth a visit!

Good customer service and brutal beer

The attention and the food were amazing!

Everything is very delicious and very good atmosphere!!! Totally recommended.

A great place for dinner and drinks. Advisable. We will definitely return when we go to London.

Amazing stuff, amazing services, amazing atmosphere!!!❤️

Decent cuisine, waitress's mistake when taking the order so very long wait to get the dish. Very noisy place

We were on vacation and we went to this tavern. The truth is that we really liked it, the food is very good and the place is very original. To repeat!

Cheap evening guaranteed as you will be waiting all evening as the woefully inadequate number of staff process the bar queue

Good pub. Good selection of beers. You can eat here as well.

Local located in a good location, I went with the family and we ate very well, pleasant treatment from the staff and the dishes had a good appearance and a very successful combination of flavors

The staff are very friendly and a very nice selection of ales 🍺

I had a wonderful time at Southwark Tavern! The ambiance strikes a delightful balance between classic charm and contemporary coziness, creating a welcoming and pleasant vibe. The staff were exceptionally kind and attentive, ensuring that everything was just right. The food was not only incredibly tasty but also beautifully plated. Whether you're popping in for a quick drink or sitting down for a full meal, Southwark Tavern is an excellent option.

Warm friendly establishment . Good vibes for a Wednesday QDAW

Was a good pint, not too busy. To the owners reply, I didn't have a negative experience, I only gave 3 stars as it's a basic pub, however I will be back.

A very nice place. I Will be back!!!

Great place to have fun and food

Amazing so good. Everything spectacular, highly recommended.

Lovely pub for a fees and drink, close to the city

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

Lovely pub great location. What more do you want.

Loving the variety in the menu, their Sunday roast is a must! Great value for money too..

I had an amazing experience at Southwark Tavern! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a perfect blend of traditional charm and modern comfort. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure every detail was taken care of. The food was absolutely delicious—packed with flavor and beautifully presented. Whether you're stopping in for a casual drink or a full meal, Southwark Tavern is a fantastic choice. I’ll definitely be back!

Nice food and good atmosphere, highly recommended

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!

Eight of us met up for a late lunch / early evening meal - our table was on the lower ground floor - excellent location, close to London Bridge underground and the market. We ordered our food at the bar, well presented dishes - nothing fancy - which is fine. Would certainly come again and would recommend - even better if - a bar with no tomato ketchup was indeed odd - a quick dash to Tesco Express was called for and perhaps if those taking the orders knew what was not available would have been helpful. Friendly team and that goes a long way - thank you.

Jack and Troy were amazing- food and vibes were 10/10

Good beers in friendly atmosphere.

I'm surprised this isn't better rated. I certainly rate this pub.

Very cute bub near borough market. Ate two well-made and good sandwiches. Almost self-service. Characteristic environment, originating from the 1800s and a former debtors' prison. I recommend it for a quick lunch.

I've been in London for a week now and had breakfast, lunch, and dinner in many diffrent places but this place had the best dinner by far! The choricho sausage was amazing so was the bass!

I buy a tgtg here, The attitude of the store employee made this a disappointing experience. I am out both my time and transit fare for arriving at this store within the pickup window only to be rudely told they are out

Lovely pub, Joseph was particularly great at service!

Joseph has been a lovely server, thank you for your help.

We visited as a group of 6 for lunch and were highly disappointed with our visit. We ordered our meal with a starter and drinks, the starter and drinks took forever to come out. When I spoke to the waiter, our main meal was on its way before the starter! I cancelled the starter and I'm still waiting on my refund. When our meals arrived, they were cold and of poor quality. My son has commented that the only thing great about his meal was the pineapple juice, which at £4 I should think it should be !!

Drinks ok. Crowd pretty annoying but the real star is the magician don neville. Was so attentive in helping us find seats and his tricks are actually the best I’ve seen.

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.

Even though it was a busy Christmas evening, we booked a table and we were very well taken care of. We had a mixture of drinks and snacks to the table and the service was amazing, even though it was very busy

Shockingly bad service, laughable food portions and extortionate prices. On arrival the booked table was not ready so we had to hang around for them to rearrange tables. We were asked to pre order to ensure that they didn’t run out. Well that didn’t work, because the first time we saw a member of staff, it was for them to tell us that several items were unavailable. Drinks service was non existent and don’t even start me on the food. A colleague had the spicy prawn starter which consisted of four prawns and a slice of tomato, all for the bargain price of £8.50. When the mains arrived my fish and chips consisted of a small piece of fish, half a dozen chips and a thimble full of peas. Quite frankly for what they charge it was insulting. To top it off, they completely forgot to serve one of our party. His food eventually turned up once we had all finished. My advice, steer well clear.

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!

Christmas work lunch with clients, Darren and team couldn’t have looked after us better. Great location, table and food. We weren’t rushed, we were waited on for drinks hand and foot. Three course menu appealed to everyone and we are already planning our visit back in 2025. Thanks again!

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

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

Nice cellar area for drinks or food, we sat in a cellar bar for a few post work drinks. Festive atmosphere and friendly staff - highly recommend!

I had a very nice time. The service was great and it is a lovely venue. Lots of space and a nice atmosphere. Would recommend a visit.

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

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.

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.

Very good food and good service. Good quality price

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

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

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

Joeseph was really welcoming and very quick service

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

Jack saddler is the best barman

Fantastic pub. Jack sadler is the top bar man!

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

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

Had drinks, great service and good cider.

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 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋🖤 💋
