This is a step up in quality and portion size in comparison to my roast dinner at the oak the previous week. The atmosphere is nice and chilled and bar staff friendly. Would definitely come back. Only down side was they only had roast dinner on the menu but then again it was a Sunday.

Nice friendly pub with great bar staff and great beer garden! Easily missed being on the edge of the main centre but shouldn’t be avoided! Good food, good selection of drinks, quiz nights and clean and tidy!

It was my first visit to this pub, we popped in initially prior to going for a meal at a nearby restaurant. Service was friendly and there was a nice atmosphere in the pub. I loved the decor in the rooms too. What made this place special wS when we returned a couple of hours later, the young lad that had served us earlier remembered our previous order and asked if we wanted the same again, ( he repeated our earlier order ) We didn't but that level or service is a rare thing. We sat and listened to a chap on the decks and the atmosphere was so friendly , people, happy and dancing around the tables. People of a wide range of ages, even the chap on the door was joining the friendly chat. The whole vibe in the place was so relaxed, happy and welcoming. You don't see that much in pubs these days.

My wife and I and a friend had a drink at the Railway Tavern recently. Busy night in the Pub owing to the Live Music. Very good array of drink choices and efficient service. I used to visit here regularly when living in Bromley and it is good to see that standards and popularity have not slipped. Worth a visit for sure.

I received a confirmation in my email about my reservation, and by the time I went to the pub, I discovered that my name wasn't in the list? how ? I showed the email confirmation to the men who was controling the list, and simple as that, they do nothing to help !!!! Me and my family discovered that on the mother's day 19/03/2023 we won't have a lunch because our name wasnt on the list.So I wasnt able to go anywhere else , of course, no available tables regarding mothers day, and guess what? Finished in my home very stressfull Sunday. Reallly disappointed , I don't not recomend at all. It's not about the money, it's about how you treat your guests when you have a problem, you need to be with respect . Thanks for the gift that the PUB gave to the mothers who were with me, all of them ended in my place without a well and deserved lunch. see attached the email confirming the reservation .

Me gusta bastante este lugar, está en una parte popular de Bromley, el pub tiene muchas habitaciones pequeñas donde puedes esconderte o puedes sentarte en el área principal del bar. También cuenta con instalaciones de catering que sirven comida tradicional de pub.La pu sigue las reglas de Covid al pie de la letra, primero, debe reservar una mesa con anticipación, también debe dar su nombre y número de teléfono al personal. El personal le recuerda que debe cubrirse la cara cada vez que se ponga de pie o se mueva por el pub. El servicio de mesa fue excelente y la limpieza de primera clase, tan pronto como se desocupaba una mesa, se limpiaba de inmediato y estaba lista para la próxima reserva de clientes. el ambiente general era muy bueno con gente charlando y riendo, también es un buen lugar para disfrutar de todas las edades. La única crítica que tuve fue que los vasos no eran adecuados para la cerveza que estaba bebiendo. Ninguno de los vasos de cerveza tenía "widgets" en la parte inferior, por lo que la cerveza parecía plana, aparte de eso, un gran pub.

Roast Pork is excellent. Helpful, friendly and efficient team -- definitely worth a revisit. Our visit was on the same Sunday as Storm Dennis at 4pm. Advise booking both a table and if you are going for a roast make sure you book it in advance so they do not run out.

I had the sweet potato Dahl with black rice. The rice was a big lump and the Dahl was more like sweet potato cubed up in mash. No sign of a lentil or coconut. It came with lemon which tasted odd with the other elements. Under seasoned but edible. My friends had a vegan burger and beef cheeseburger but both said it lacked flavour and the chips were over salted. I had the vegan peanut butter brownie with ice cream. It was not a brownie. It was a very nice chocolate cake with a thin peanut butter sauce. No idea what the three drops of green garlick liquid were supposed to be. I think it was the dressing for my friends humus dripped on my plate by mistake when serving. Apparently the beetroot humus was quite nice.Service was good.

Llegué para el almuerzo del domingo por mi cuenta justo después de que sus puertas se abrieron al mediodía. Pedimos el calamar de chile salado y el vientre de cerdo. El calamar era mejor que la media y el Pork Belly fue muy bueno. Las patatas asadas con él fueron un poco decepcionantes, mi preferencia sería que sean más crujientes. Excelente Yorkie Pud y el tamaño de la porción fue muy generoso. El cambio de 20 para ambos representa un valor razonable para mí.

I like this pub because of the colourful glazed green and mustard coloured tiling and its location. They have preserved the pub's outside appearance outside and I like the way it has been decorated inside, with big wooden tables and comfy leather chairs. It feels authentic. The pub's very handy for Bromley North station. I haven't tried the food. The range of beers is good, and changes. When I visited they had Marstons and other quality beers on offer. On a warm day the beer garden at the back is a great place to sit and talk, although it's a bit small, and the low wall lets you watch people as they walk along North Street.

I moved to Bromley a few months ago and wanted a pub I could call my local and this one pretty much covers all areas I'd want from such a place. The drink selections good, the staff are knowledgeable around it and willing to offer advice. The food is excellent and very well priced, it really is restaurant quality with a changing menu to ensure it never gets staid or boring. Music playing is eclectic and never overbearing, bands play from time to time and are of a good standard. The pub also has game consoles and quiz nights, overall the place is clean, friendly, and welcoming. By far the best pub in Bromley.

A group of 10 of us visited this pub on 21st April for my wife's birthday drinks but we won't be returning again as the bar staff were rude and quite frankly very disrespectful. I began my order but as some of the party hadn't made their minds up quick enough the female bar tender lost patience and very loudly (and sarcastically) said 'WOW' by way of complaint. I was surprised and apologised for any slight delay but her attitude simply stank, I then suggested that she might be in the wrong job, after which she just stared at me with a blank expression - very weird.

My daughter, whom my wife and I were visiting, booked this pub for 4pm on the following day (Mothering Sunday). We arrived 5 minutes early and had some drinks and ordered the 3 same roasts. We were shown a table, if you could call it that as it was no more than 16” wide x 36” long, located in the Snug area adjacent to the doors leading to the first toilets. Above our seating area the paper was hanging from the ceiling and the general décor looked as if it had not been touched for a decade. As it was busy we could have understood if there had been a 30 minute wait for the 3 bog standard roasts to turn up but in the event it turned out to be almost a full hour without any apologies from the staff. But what was really bad was the lingering smell of what resembled that of a dead rat tucked away somewhere in the fabric of the building. I’m not normally a fussy person but going up the stairs to the toilets was a shock as it reminded me of some of the derelict buildings I used to inspect before major refurbishment or demolition. The smell was even stronger in the landing areas leading to several rooms before you arrived at the toilets. I did wonder if there was a dead body in one of the rooms as the smell did not seem to emanate from the toilets themselves.

The staff all helped decorate the room before the event and put fresh flowers and candles on the tables. After the meal some of the tables were taken out so that we could dance. Music from my friends iPod was played through the speakers. The service was really great and I would thoroughly recommend the venue.

Celebrated my birthday here on Sunday. We were a group of 26 adults and children, so we had reserved "The Living Room" space which was perfect for our requirements and sat everyone comfortably for a Sunday roast, however it was a nice day so when not eating we made good use of the lovely pub garden. The roast itself was delicious, maybe a little on the small side but this allowed space for dessert which was also very nice. The manager was so accommodating for our large group, especially with a few people running late so having to push back the time for the food to be served and a few people who had not provided pre-orders and ordering at the last minute. The cost was also great, our group were impressed. Both adults and children had a great time, children were entertained by having space to play in the garden and also by the supply of colouring pencils and colouring in books in the pub - great touch.

I really like this pub. I usually walk 5 miles over from Blackheath to get a beer here. I like a nice Moretti. And they have it on tap. Problem is the last 3 times I've walked over here there is no Moretti. And that's a big problem when you walk 5 miles for a Moretti. Today it was a choice between Heineken, which is for 14 year olds who have no idea about lager, and Sagres, which tastes like a nasty cider with lager flavouring. How hard is it to manage lager supply and demand so that there is always a Moretti available? It's not hard. My 101 year old grandma could do that. But the Railway can't. If they sorted out this criminal Moretti issue the world would be a lot better

I had the beef whilst my boyfriend had the lamb and both dinners were perfect and made us feel miles better : ) I've eaten in here a couple of times before and don't know why I haven't reviewed it until now.

Used to serve the best burger in Bromley. Food menu has been reduced just as food quality has decreased - nice touches are still to be found (great tomato salsa), but their signature burger has gone from amazing to underseasoned and tough; mediocre at best. And I say that after several which confirmed the trend. What a pity as the food was great when the pub reopened last year.

I had a lovely chilled afternoon at the Railway Tavern. I was having a catch up with friends so we had the Sunday roast. I had the beef which was perfectly cooked. The roast potatoes were again delicious and the Yorkshire pudding was a home-cooked delight. I would have liked more veg and more gravy, but these were also delicious. My only critique was the plate was small and I felt like my dinner was going to slide off. We also had desserts and these were AMAZING. Beautifully prepared and a complete sugary food-gasm. I implore you to save a pudding gap.

I love the general feel of pubs in the Antic group - they tend to favour the original shabby without much chic, but it works. Have lunched in The Railway Tavern a few times and although not the best of the Antic pubs it has still been decent. Sunday lunch recently, however, did not hit the spot. Possibly my own fault for not checking the menu more carefully before ordering. Organic roast chicken and the trimmings. I expected chicken breast or sliced chicken - maybe my expectation set this up to be a wrong 'un as the menu didn't actually say that when I later double checked it. The chicken turned out to be a drumstick and the bony end of the breast joint with a wing. The most meat to be found was on the drumstick. Two small roast potatoes, a Yorkshire pudding, a few carrots and some broccoli, very thin gravy. And very tepid. Not hot, definitely off cold. Back it went to be replaced with the same but hotter. A real disappointment. Certainly not the best Antic food I've experienced.

A group of 14 friends went for an Xmas dinner and had really good food at a reasonable price and cheerfully and efficiently served - quite an achievement with a large party. The Railway Tavern has been taken over by a chain that specialises in bringing back to life old pubs that have character but had verged on dereliction. The policy seems to be to add facilities, redecorate and expand opening hours when trade warrants it - hence, the Railway (opposite Bromley North Station) is a work-in-progress that has got the important things right. It is well worth a visit.

Went to this reinvented pub for the first time an first impressions are it is a vast improvement. Good selection of beers. When I arrived there were 2 staff behind the bar, one texting on her mobile, the other serving a customer. When the 'working' member of staff finished, she served me and was extremely friendly and helpful. Ordered food too and that was fine. As we were finishing the food though a 'pack' of large dogs entered the pub and ran loose. The pub did not seem to mind, albeit people were trying to eat. Not healthy or desirable to eat in a replica of Battersea Dogs Home. Clearly had to leave and can see no reason to come back, unless the pub management act in a more professional way.

My faith in trip advisor is ruined. The burger here is unbelievable, how is this place not higher on here? i consider myself a burger expert and have eaten burgers all across london from daniel buloud and gordon ramsey to Brixton market, this burger is up there with honest burger and patty and bun. The best burger outside london hands down and possibly the best ive had overall.

Food and atmosphere is really like being in London. love the fact it's a bit ram shackled and think that's the idea. I understand they spend the money in a good chef. Been there quite a lot and would say that it's excellent when the head chefs is there. Great joint for Bromley. Also they've got their hands in the Royal Bell due to open next year. That's a best from the past

Great craft beer selections. The most amazing roast beef and trimmings. Hubby was impressed. Had the sausage and mash and could not fault it. The onion gravy was delicious!!! Aiming to go back with my 6 year olds asap. There were several families and lots of board games!!

Popped in here for a few drinks prior to eating elsewhere on Sunday lunchtime. Service was good and the outside seating area was fine. There seemed to be a lot of people eating Sunday Roasts so may take that option next time. Décor was quirky. Shabby chic is the technical term I believe. My father said he expected Steptoe and Hercules to appear around the corner which I thought was a little harsh. As someone who remembers what this establishment was like 20+ years ago – today’s version is a definite improvement. Mens toilets could do with updating.

This roast just keeps getting better. We popped in last minute to find they serve a roast till much later than most on a sunday. This was great as we have had a couple of roast before and they have exceeded expectations. This time the beefs seemed even more tasty and tender and there was a welcomed addition of cauliflower cheese on my plate. The staff here come across extremely well and it is one of my favourite places to eat.Good beers too.

This a place that we have been meaning to try for a Sunday Roast for a while and we were not to be disappointed... looks like a regular boozer from the outside but it had a great atmosphere. The food was obviously made to order, it was pipping hot, everything was freshly cooked and thankfully there was not a cooked from frozen vegetable in sight... Only tiny thing was the Horseradish (homemade) but needed bit of extra zing.Can't wait to return!!

Enjoyed a very pleasant meal on a Thursday. Had a meal and a drink deal. The place was packed even before 7pm, we had to hunt for a seat.

Had a few beers and snacks last night whilst there for the quiz, was a last minute decision and we were lucky to get a table, best quiz I've been too and the sausage rolls and buttermilk chicken were amazing. We are planning to make their quiz night a regular thing. As a pub, the staff are very friendly and the choices of beers and snacks is excellent

We did not eat here, however we did book space for after drinks with our team. They gave us a very nice area which everyone loved. Friendly people, we will be coming back to try the food.

This is a lovely pub to have a drink in, there is a beer garden, good range of wines available and lots going on but...The food is really bad, I tried the "signature" railway burger and couldn't finish it. The meet was bad quality and the chips tasted disgusting (not sure how you can mess up chips?!). We are frequent visitors here and will be returning, just not for food.

Visiting family for Christmas, (I'm from Lincolnshire), was shocked how rediculously expensive everything was in Bromley including even basic food, l could have a 3 course meal in Lincoln for price of a starter is some of the places here!! The Terrace Cafe was a breath of fresh air, really acceptable prices, big menu and good quality food, surprised also on the decent portion sizes. Not surprised they were busy! (I'm writing this review while still in the cafe). Well done guys.

Warm friendly atmosphere with great coffee and food. Portion sizes are very good so don’t agree with some of the negative comments

Used to be such a good coffee, but the last few times were horrible. The baristas don't know how to heat oat milk and just burn it. Water glasses were filthy, probably from washing in same water as stuff covered in batter mix. Great crepes, but elsewhere for coffee!

Service with a smile on a Sunday morning. Went there for coffee and granola - relaxing and god atmosphere. We walked out of Starbucks as there was no smiles there.
