The Dolphin in Lewisham

Been a few times since moving to Sydenham. Been a good time each time. Nice choice of drinks. Good has been great and the service from millie and Devon last night was second to none. Found my new local! They won't be getting rid of me any time soon

Este lugar está en un gran lugar con. Animado gran verde y tiene un gran potencial para ser un pub comunitario conmovedor, pero sus reglas arbitrarias alrededor de los niños y perros han significado que este largo tiempo Sydenham local no volverá. Tienen muy claro que los niños no son bienvenidos, vine por separado con mi perro en un día caluroso de verano para reunirme con un gran grupo de adultos y niños (algunos de los cuales eran míos) y al instante me dijeron que no se permitían perros en el jardín, cuando bromeé ligeramente con el barman diciendo que esa era una regla tonta miró a los niños con los que estaba y dijo: ‘y a los niños tampoco se les permite caminar, pero esa es nuestra regla’. Los niños en cuestión caminaban hacia el baño... Nos hicieron sentir muy desagradables por tener hijos, todos ellos son bien educados y gastamos mucho en sus pizzas sobrepreciosas y agobiantes. En una zona muy amiga de la familia, este es un comportamiento extraño, especialmente para un grupo más grande que estaba pidiendo mucha comida y bebidas. El Dolphin debe tomar nota de maravillosos pubs como el Perry Hill a la vuelta de la esquina, que tiene comida increíble, un parque infantil, personal amable y que son genuinamente acogedores a los perros.

So surprised by some of the reviews here. I am very fussy and we love The Dolphin! Come here very often. Really great pizza, reasonably priced and have always found the manager and staff for be super friendly and accommodating. As an example, I came with my baby the other day who was asleep - the manager specifically opened a side gate for me so I didn't have to wake her up walking through the main resto. It's quieter midweek but I'd say most places are and still busy. Lovely beer garden and you don't get rushed out. Greyhound is full of old blokes and smells of frying and old carpets. Just saying...

The dolphin used to be grt on a Friday evening busy and lively to see on the weekend Needs to liven up a bit Went last night and was more like a Sunday eve, quiet, really quiet bad music as well moved on after one

I am local to the dolphin and visit frequently, weekly for food, there’s not any other place local that you can sit down with kids to eat pizza, today I have told the staff there that I will not be returning. I find the service very slow, once ordered the food comes out fast enough but if you would like another drink or pay the bill you will be waiting. You are then bill’ed for the terrible service, pricy and non attentive. I am frustrated because as I said I don’t have anywhere else local to go with my kid, but I have had enough, moving in the wrong direction

I went there today and spent 40 quid on drinks. I ordered a pizza next door and literally had one bite of pizza in the garden as it was such a long wait for food,and the guy with curly ginger hair took my drinks away without any warning and told me and and my friend to go. My friend asked why and he was very rude not professional at all. I came out the toilet and asked where my drink was,I was told to leave and go up to the greyhound where the staff are polite. In my opinion this guy was totally unprofessional and rude!!!!!! I was told not to come back and I certainly won't. This is my second visit to this pub and staff were very rude and didn't care about the customers!!! I would recommend the greyhound or the pavilion were the staff go out of their way to welcome their customers

Me and my partner visited this pub at 12 am midway,after a nice morning/afternoon drinking we decided to order food..::after waiting over a hour for food my partner cancelled the order and decided to get a pizza from pizza go go (next door to the pub) After spending over £40 (4 drinks each) our pizza arrived,I had one bite out of my pizza while I finished my pint and was ready to leave.....the manager (ginger hair man) very obnoxious and with no people skills,picked up my and my partners drinks and asked us to leave.....I had one bite out of my pizza! I asked him why we had to leave and he said because your eating food that wasn’t brought here....I put the slice back in the box I told him he was rude and basically told us to use another pub !!!! This is my 2nd visit to this pub and the staff are very unprofessional and rude
