The Bishop in Southwark

This is a great local pub! The service is always great and Gabriel was particularly attentive and friendly, he served us quickly and made our stay very pleasant.

Best atmosphere and best service from the lovely Imarn 🤩 I also enjoyed the yummy food!

The highlight of my bank holiday weekend!

Great food, great atmosphere and friendly staff particularly Imarn.

The Korean oyster crumpet was moreish. The refreshing, attentive, friendly and genuine service from Imarn was unforgettable.

Had a great Sunday afternoon watching football here with a friend. Despite it being full of Mother's Day diners (yes I'm a bad son watching football instead of seeing my mum, I know) and it being very busy, the guys at the pub were very accommodating in getting my friend and I set-up with good seats to watch the game. Huge props to Dean in particular for making this happen. Cracking roast too.

A proper pub with atmosphere. Food was really tasty. A few things were unavailable due to a new chef and we arrived late Sunday afternoon for a roast. Great service, great food, generous kids portion sizes and colouring/pens to keep the tiny one busy. Just ticked all the boxes and would happily go again.

Great selection of beers Shout out to Rodrigo for his great customer service

Amazing place, thank you Rodrigo for the best service ever.

Great history pub, my favorite in London. Rodrigo was amazing, will return for sure.

Great experience and beers! Thank you Rodrigo for the attention, you’re the best.

Absolutely extraordinary environment. Delicious food & drink. Lovely decor. Very efficient staff. Well done guys, I’d be pleased to have this pub as my local!

Nice place to go meet with friends after futebol game

Everytime i pop in for food and drink i am welcome by warmth staff, Rodrigo is always friendly and helpful. The food is spot on and the drink selection great. Bravo

This place in Dulwich is just GREAT ! Staff friendly Friday eve djs Saturday eve live music and the place close at 2 am weekends ! The latest around the area ! Just great ! Recommend

One of the best in London. Nice and friendly staff and place. Cold beer and variety of drinks.

Very good pub on the lane, good events good sports and good food

The Food Was Really Good .. Amd Really Liked The Sunday Roast .. I’va never ate such a well cooled Porchetta In My Whole Life as It Was Served Here .. Great Work Guyss ..

On my first trip to London, I was at the Bishop, a very pleasant and cozy place in addition to the food being very good.. and of course the beer 🍺.. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Rodrigo for the great service..👏👏👏

Food was lovely and the drink is te best! Rodrigo is very nice guy. One of the reasons i chose to eat there he’s always so helpful and kind... great service.

Great pub great music too! Stan was a gem as usual always a laugh

Nice pub with a diverse beer selection and friendly staff. Wing Wednesday is good value and the wings were nice, especially buffalo but hot honey was good too. One criticism holds this back from 5 stars: the poutine fries were not poutine. They had what tasted like BBQ sauce on them and melted cheese, poutine done correctly is chips with gravy & cheese curds - these are two completely different things and as I hate BBQ sauce I was a bit sad about that. I can understand not doing cheese curds as not everyone in the UK is familiar with it, but guys, you really can't replace gravy with BBQ sauce (kmt)! Rant over, apart from that it was all a good experience.

Had a great evening here with a young and fun crowd. TV screens show the sport. A musician was performing for an hour or so…pretty average but hot people dancing. The music kept playing until late into the night and the atmosphere remained good. Pint of lager was £6.45, so pretty reasonable.

One of East Dulwich's solid pubs - good bar, decent array of drinks. Big screen for the sport out back.

This is our favourite pub in the area - the music, vibes and most of all the bartenders (Gabriel in particular makes us feel so at home) are all impeccable <3 every time we come here we have an incredible time - we come for a couple and end up staying until close ;)

Very friendly, nice atmosphere, really nice food.

Always makes my feel like a celeb! Gabriel is the best x

Good atmosphere ! Service was great! Brazilian guy Roddy really friendly ! Was first time and ill return for sure ! RECOMMENDED

Gabriel made us feel so welcome at Bishop,a great night

Gabriel was great and served us well.

I recently got horrendous food poisoning from The Bishop. Just before Christmas, 8 out of 18 of a large group of friends that ate here got severe food poisoning here. My friend emailed the pub and after a long period of time (and after I rang them) got a generic non-apologetic email, saying they'd get back to him (they haven't). When I rang the pub and spoke to the manager to inform them, and check whether had done a check of the food. They were extremely standoffish and avoidant, offering no assurance that they had done a thorough investigation or clean, let alone an apology. I would expect at least the pub to offer to refund the meal. I was bed bound for a week with severe stomach cramps, sadly this being the week in the run up to christmas, I had to cancel several festive social occasions. Additionally, the food was disgusting - warm, soggy, chewy prawn cocktail for starter and lukewarm roast for a main (with half-cooked carrots). It was also pretty expensive which adds insult to injury. Avoid this pub.

This is a great place with friendly stuff that really take care of you. The food is excellent. The prices are decent and the beer is great you should come on over and check it out. I’m not working for them but it is one of my locals

Great Sunday Roast. The guys and girls at a the Bishop are very kind and attentive. It was the first Sunday Roast for us (beef and vegan) and we were a bit skeptical but the whole experience was very satisfying.

Ótimo atendimento!boa comida e cerveja gelada! ambiente amigável !obs : Rodrigo gerente nota mil!

We’ve just moved to the area and visited The Bishop three times in the last couple of weeks. On two occasions, the beer we ordered tasty soapy, like the glasses still had dish soap residue on them. It was with two of different beers they had on tap, so it wasn’t just a case of the beer not being to our taste. The second time the bar tenders kindly gave us another pint, but it was still an issue. It’s a shame as I really want to love this pub as it’s our local, but we’ve been put off because of this.

A decent pub but looks and feels a bit tired. So is the service.

I like the service and the food, Rodrigo is a great person we like coming all the time and see Rodrigo, thanks Bishop

Lugar muito agradável, comida e bebida boa,atendimento excelente, recomendo.

Gabriel the barman was great - very attentive and friendly…made our night! Great quiz night, recommend!

Gabriel was a great server! great food and great service !!

The best pub in East Dulwich (Rodrigo the best)

Have returned here after many years to find it has the same homely atmosphere but with a more polished finish. The beef burger was great! Very good range of drinks. Service by Gabriel and Dean was perfect. No complaints. Highly recommend.

Gabriel looked after my table, amazing fish and chips - fantastic service!

We had our xmas lunch there on 12/12/23, party of 12 (Dulwich branch). The staff were excellent, hands on, attentive, caring, cannot fault the hospitality. Dean, Phoebe, head chef and all the staff were absolutely wonderful. Every single member of my party enjoyed the food, ambiance and the venue. They made us feel very special. Priscilla

Best pub in East Dulwich! Great atmosphere! Banging Sunday roast as well. Manager and all staff are lovely and friendly

Had such a great night down at the Bishop!! They played great music and the vibes were immaculate. Gabriel was very friendly and ensured we had a fabulous night! Definitely would recommend the bishop to anyone.

Went here last Friday. Bit of a circus.. rude staff. Not sure really what is going on. Witnessed staff pouring themself a little something, which wouldn’t be a problem if it didn’t make them so unpleasant. If I asked to see the manager and was presented with a live chicken I would not in the slightest be surprised. Was gonna pass it off as a bad night until I met up with friends who had a similar experience.

Excellent Christmas dinner at the Bishop! Dean was very hospitable and looked after us!

What an amazing pub. The bar man Rod we had was the most polite man i have ever met. Knowledgeable about the beers and the local area. What a place and what a man. Get yourself down there!.

Sunday roast us back to what it was 20 yrs ago. Great team effort and young vibrant staff

The Bishop is King! If you live in London or planning a visit, then a visit to The Bishop should be on your list. From the moment we walked in to our final goodbye, the whole visit was an experience Par Excellence! Firstly, Rodrigo’s customer service was the bench mark others should strive to follow! Probably the best I’ve ever witnessed in London! Seriously! Secondly, The manager & Chef care! A rare commodity these days. They took pride in The Bishop as a whole and the food in particular. We waited a perfect amount of time for our freshly cooked Seasonal Fish of the Day with beef dripping chips and the Smoked Pork Frank (which is probably the best Hot Dog i’ve ever eaten, Anywhere! & that includes the USA!) The selection of ales and lagers were extensive and such an array of choice would be hard to beat. Jubel’s was an exceptional lager and a perfect partner for the food. Would we recommend it to others? Without hesitation. Will we be returning? Answer not required.

The Sunday roast was amazinggg!! And the server was really accommodating. 10/10

Just had an amazing Sunday lunch with the wife service was amazing great find for us only question I ask is why was estrella 12 quid a pint

Best pub on Lordship Lane! The staff are super friendly. The food, especially the Sunday roasts, is top notch. I can't seem to keep myself away.

The Roast was fantastic. Everything was just perfect. The Yorkies were hugeeee. The staff were so sweet and friendly. Definitely coming back again.

Nice place, with a cozy feel, friendly, and welcoming staff

Great beers. Always fun on a Friday night!

Great place to eat. Friendly, respectful, efficient staff. Great food and atmosphere. Don' t miss it.

One of the best roasts I've had in SE London. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful! Will be returning!

Just had a lovely Sunday lunch with my friend Dee at the Bishop lordship lane . The food was really good lots of it ! Dean the manager and Rodrigues were so polite and helpful . Dean gave us both an espresso martini on the house . Will definitely go back with other friends and recommend you try it xx

The Bishop was excellent, and Rodrigo's service made it even better. He greeted us warmly and was genuinely excited to have us there, which created a positive atmosphere for the evening. Rodrigo's knowledge of the menu was impressive, and he helped us choose delicious dishes that enhanced our overall experience. He paid attention to every detail and made sure we were satisfied, which made our visit unforgettable. The combination of The Bishop and Rodrigo's exceptional service ensures a wonderful time, and we will definitely be coming back for more!

Sophie is an amazing woman always makes me feel welcome and creates a friendly atmosphere glad to come here with friends for a great night.

Sophie have such fab service! She remembered the wine I liked! Fab!

Came in to watch the footie, I was served by the lovely bar made Sophie. She recommended the lamb burger with was very nice. Tha ks Sophie

The service was great, we spent a nice time with my friends in bishop and Sophie looked after us very well. Definitely will come back

Came in for a quick drink on the way home from work, was browsing through the food menu thinking if I should order or not. The lovely bar lady Sophie recommended the corn ribs and fries👏 They were to die for. Sophie brought the food to my table and before walking away said if there is anything else she could get for me or need do not hesitate to ask. Very lovey and friendly. I would definitely be stopping by more often. Next I’ll be coming with friends. Thank you Sophie for just being so Polite and welcoming

Rude staff, overpriced poorly poured beer. Wouldn’t recommend.

Great pub and atmosphere. Having the live music and pub quizzes is fun. Staff are always on hand to make sure you’re having a good time, Sophie in particular is always welcoming and provides great service.

Good place to visit, well recommended.

I had a lovely time here all the staff was lovely one stuck out the most a lady called Sophie she recommended some food and boy it was good I had the honey hot wings and the jerk burger, the chips are also really well done big shot out to the chef I can't wait to come back here again I could defo make this my local

Great pub, great grub and even better staff! Best local in East Dulwich for me!

Great pub lovely atmosphere. Amazing bar staff - Stan is always very accommodating and charismatic

amazing music and atmosphere on a saturday. The staff are incredibly fast and funny. Stan has to be my favourite of the bunch, constantly having us laughing. 10/10 great time.

The pub staff were absolutely fantastic! From the moment we walked in, sophie greeted me with warm smiles and made me feel right at home. They were attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure my dining experience was exceptional. My drinks were always filled, but my order had been messed up however, Sophie was kind enough to rectify the problem. It’s clear that they take pride in their work, and their genuine enthusiasm added a delightful charm to my evening. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to make my visit enjoyable. Kudos to the pub staff for their exceptional service! I’d definitely be back on a Friday just for her

Came on Sunday for some drinks and food with family and kids, wasn’t sure on what to order. The lovely bar lady Sophie was very friendly and welcoming. The way she was with the kids was just fab. My youngest son hates veg, somehow the bar lady got him to eat all his veg then showed him a magic trick which she pulled out a sweet from behind her ear😊 my son was so impressed so yes we will be coming back with family and definitely bring the kids they loved her. Thanks Sophie/ Mia

Lovely cup of tea by the heaters at the bishop Thankyou lovely Sophie !

Came on Friday afternoon, lovely place, absolutely delightful staff, made me and my kids feel so accommodated. Sophie in particular was excellent. She brought drinks to my table to save me from getting up and leaving the little one alone and found some bits and pieces for the older two to “help” her with. Food was great (even though most ended up knocked onto the floor 🙄) but again Sophie was quick to tidy up after us! The music was great, the football was on, pints were pouring… just a proper pub atmosphere. Me and my wife moved from Dublin to East Dulwich in 2018 and seen a ton of changes in the local area but I think the new management at the bishop has finally given us what East Dulwich needed! Great staff like Sophie, quality food and drinks and a real pub buzz! Thank-you Sophie and the Bishop, see you next weekend!

Went for some dinner at the bishop with my friend. Food was ok but a bit a slow wouldn’t recommend but the atmosphere and the incredible bar staff, especially Sophie, made us feel very welcome and we had a blast!

Came on a friday night, dj was great, whole night was MADE by the bar staff, especially stan and sophie, love them!

Iam always happy to come over to this pub that i think is one of the best pub in Dulwich ! the beer range are THE BEST besides not cheap, but worth it ! The atmosphere for sports is just getting better and better and the service is just great with a Brazilian vibe with Rodrigues, who even when busy still make time to say hello and check on us! Well done The Bishop Team we will be back !

Great place and amazing food!! Rodrigo is the best and treated us like a family. Thank you

It is the best place ever, and all the staff is friendly . Rodrigo, thank you so much for everything I will come back soon

Great pub and great staff. Phoebe was great and made our drinks very swiftly :) can’t wait to come back

Me and my family had a great Sunday lunch and very special and attentive service by a staff member called Rodrigo. He seems to have lots of experience in how to make sure a customer experience is done with great standard. The food and drinks were great, definitely coming back. Well done

Had a lovely evening at The Bishop, great and speedy service from the wonderful bartender Phoebe! Thanks!

We had a lovely drink in the Bishop. The bar staff are so friendly- particularly Phoebe. It is one of the few places that gets evening sunshine, and is great for an early evening drink.

Loved it here! The pub had great vibes good drinks and friendly staff! Bar tender Phoebe was lovely to be served by!

A lovely pub and the staff were brilliant. Phoebe especially was great and speedily made our drinks. Thanks a lot! Lovely spot to watch the world go by

Great place, great atmosphere, friendly staff
