The Windmill in Lambeth

Gorgeous aperol spritz made by Sachon 👍

Outstanding friendly service from Sachon and a great atmosphere! Highly recommended.

Sachin was amazing in getting the group seated and situated amazing personality

Man I used to really love this place but went to leave a review to say that I came this last week and the food was really bad. Like really not so great. Hopefully a one off since it used to be a great pub!

Sachon was amazing really friendly great bar man.

Lovely pub with friendly staff & good beers. Also, the Tater Tots are yummy!

Nice pub, fine service, good beer

Sachon’s the best worker! Always so friendly and polite! My favourite pub

Sachon was the best person ❤️❤️❤️

I’ve been drinking in London pubs for 40 years. I remember having my first pint down in Stockwell with my father and never have a come across a pub with such atmosphere and care as the Windmill. From the bar staff, to the food to the regulars. It feels like coming home. Almost like a country pub in a city setting. There is a charm and cadence which is incredibly difficult to conjure. I was served by a gentleman called Elias. As a person with a gluten intolerance, he was incredibly knowledgeable on what drinks I could and couldn’t have. I was recommended the Jubel. A peach beer, curious. It was delicious. Poured to perfection and delivered in a clean, cold and most importantly, branded glass. After a while I asked Elias for a food recommendation, he suggested the Fish and Chips, as it was infused with the companies own Frontier lager in the batter. The fish was cooked to perfection, batter crisp and fish just right. The triple cooked chips that accompanied my fish were perfect. After eating I left the establishment, well fed, watered and with a smile on my face. I’d 100% recommend The Windmill. A hidden gem, which hopefully doesn’t remain hidden for long.

Sachon such a perfect bar tender xx

Best night ever in this pub, and Sachon was the most helpful and friendly member of staff we could have asked for, he is a true asset - thank you. Can’t wait to return.

Brilliant service by Sachon - so helpful and attentive. Thank you for an enjoyable evening. Absolute asset to the team

Great pub. Not too busy and nice atmosphere.

Friendly welcoming pub Good beers

Just had a beer. Nice local pub

Fuimos aquí un viernes a mediados de enero. El lugar estaba ocupado y tuvimos una mala experiencia. Tardó una eternidad en pedir bebidas, ya que 3 camareros se reían y charlaban e ignoraban a la gente que esperaba para pedir en el bar. Cogí nuestras bebidas y tenía el dinero exacto para dárselo pero empujó la máquina de tarjetas delante de nosotros. Le dije que queríamos pagar con efectivo, luego corrió por el bar y trajo una pequeña pizarra diciendo tarjeta solamente. Dijimos que no había nada en la puerta ni nadie podía ver una señal tan tonta en un bar lleno de gente. Dijimos: no gracias, si no quieres nuestro dinero en efectivo nos vamos; lo cual hicimos. Al salir, salió corriendo por el bar y me agarró del brazo y me dijo que comprobaría si la caja estaba abierta (lo que significa que toma dinero en efectivo y debe recuperarlo sobre la marcha). Le dije que no debería haberme agarrado del brazo y le dije que era algo asqueroso para hacerle a un cliente; entonces procedió a llamarnos asquerosos y otras palabras, ¡muy lamentable! Vive no tan lejos y NUNCA volverás. No puedo recomendar y evitaría este lugar.

Nice Pub in The Cut not far from The Old Vic👍

Literalmente a las 23: 05 el camarero estaba en la cara de todos diciéndonos que nos fuéramos. Te venderán cerveza muy cara pero no te darán tiempo a beberla.

Great, warm pub and good veggie burger. Great fries/chips.

Nice pub, quite a good choice of beer. Would go again

I've visited here and used my card 5 months ago,. on 9th June. Today, the same amount taken from my credit card at 10:30am when the pub was closed. I was at work and I've had my card with me. So be careful using your card here!

Great food made with love and care, very kind and honest staff, kilo of chicken wings was decent. Prices not bad too.

Very busy but (fortunately) I still found a picture. Very tasty fish and chips.

Possibly THE WORST food in London. 12 of us ate here. Tiny portions on burgers and £18 is beyond a joke. Nut Roast was sent back twice so we asked to be refunded. I question whether the food here is my by a child or someone who has no business being a kitchen. When the complained about the lack of food on the roast the waitress had the cheek to say "the plate makes it look small". Won't be going to back to this pub again which is disappointing.

Been past this pub plenty of times but usually on my way elsewhere. Bar was fairly empty when I got to it, filled up with pre theatre drinkers, then calmer afterwards to the point we managed to grab a table outside. A pint of Amstel is £6 which is good for the area. Service is fast and friendly. I liked The Windmill and look forward to going again.

Popular pub, nice atmosphere. Good selection of lagers but only Fuller's Pride bitter available and poorly drawn. As a brewery owned (although they have sold brewery I think?) pub it should have more bitters.

Nice old fashioned pub in Southwark.

Nice little pub in Waterloo - good place to wait for the flat iron!

If I could give a 0 out of 5 I would. What a waste of time. We waited 45 minutes to get our food. They served us a caesar salad that was not completed (missing ingredients)…. Twice. We were 5 people and were not served at the same time. Some of us were already done while others were still waiting for their plates. As a tourist it was a complete shame. We missed one our visits because it took us 2 hours just to eat in this restaurant. We will never be back.

Popped in on a Saturday evening for a drink. Busy traditional pub with a nice atmosphere. Outside a selection of tables and lots of small cute tables inside. Efficient bar staff. Our table had a handbag / jacket hook, very handy. Clean toilets.

First time visiting this little gem of a pub in Waterloo 🩷 big shout out to Sachon who made the evening. We’ll be back!!

Called in for a late lunch after a morning at the Oval Test. We found out later that the chef was about to go off duty when we called in but stayed on to prepare what I can honestly state was the best fish and chips I've ever had. Piping hot, freshly cooked haddock, perfect crispy chips. Really good service from bar staff too. I need to find a reason to go back. Not many in when we arrived but place was buzzing when we left.

Very pleasant atmosphere, well served and tasty food. For a Brazilian, beer is still warm, but very good.

Food and drinks were great, and service was even better

Habíamos estado en este pub bastantes veces antes y siempre estábamos contentos con la comida (comida básica del pub) y el servicio. Habíamos reservado una mesa y como uno de los miembros del grupo tenía intolerancia al gluten, habíamos comprobado en su página web que esto podía ser atendido. Cuando preguntamos sobre esto nos dijeron groseramente que no importaba lo que dijera en el sitio web, ¡no tenían rollos sin gluten ni nada más! No hay sugerencias no hay disculpas solo una respuesta cortante. Pedimos unos nachos y unos de gasolina. Dado que el menú indicaba claramente los principales asumimos que los nachos llegarían primero. No fue así y los nachos llegaron con la red. Cuando preguntamos sobre esto, el mismo miembro del personal nos dijo muy groseramente que no hacen entrantes. Una vez más no hay disculpas ni explicaciones. Algunas de las comidas estaban bien, sin embargo, algunas eran simplemente comestibles y ninguna estaba caliente. Decidimos no seguir interactuando con el miembro del personal, ya que sentimos que no podía ser molestado. Esto es una pena, ya que en ocasiones anteriores tuvimos buenas experiencias y un servicio amable, sin embargo, como hay un montón de lugares alternativos para comer y beber no volveremos aquí.

Great local pub. Staff is very efficient and friendly.

Fullers pub. Food and real ale available. Handy for theatre and public transport, Southwark station on the Jubilee Line, or Waterloo East.

Really good pub with good outdoor seating..we didn't eat but really enjoyed our pints.would recommend coming here for a drink

Very pleasant pub, conveniently located close to Waterloo and Southwark Stations. Service is friendly. The food was good.

Nice pub with a pleasant atmosphere. Not overly expensive for a London pub but the staff seemed to be somewhat shocked by the fact that I wanted to pay cash for my drinks. I'm pretty sure that cash is still a recognised and legal method of payment in the UK.

Loooooovely little boozer, bartender (also weirdly called Rory, never met another one before) was knowledgeable and quite dashing. Would come here again.

Nice pub and the staff were really friendly, but the food was bland and tasteless. Would recommend going for drinks, but eat elsewhere.

Great beer, friendly staff, excellent location, time passed fast too quickly. Would happily return.

Absolute amazing experience, and the best service! Wonderful staff that created such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Great selection of beer, and the food was top notch! Dearly recommend!

Was a very nice visit the bar man was nice

Horrible almuerzo dominical: bebidas finas y precio medio de Londres; personal bueno y amable, almuerzo dominical pobre y gran parte de él no comestible (y somos poco quisquillosos y teníamos hambre! ): comida entera tibia; carne grasa, gelatinosa, no sólo rosada sino efectivamente mal cocida (y nos gusta nuestra carne sangrienta! ) , y difícil de cortar; patatas asadas grandes y como patatas hervidas; pudín Yorkshire como cartón; queso de coliflor tierno, pero sin dorar, acuoso e insípido; zanahorias ok; salsa acuosa y sin sabor. Somos lo que pudimos y no nos preguntaron cómo era nuestra comida, tomamos nuestros platos (habíamos estado afuera) informando al personal que habíamos comido lo que pudimos pero habíamos dejado lo que teníamos porque la comida era terrible y algo no comestible. Lamentaron oír eso y lo dejaron allí. De ahí esta reseña.

Good selection of draught beers. Bad selection of draught ciders

A great place to eat. Typical English place to dine. The fish & chips were delicious, and so were the rest of the dishes we ordered. I highly recommend stopping by, excellent!

A lovely place! I would return without hesitation.

A group gathering for a retirement. Nice cosy seating area to the front with sun & a little shade to the front. Plenty of seating inside which was cool on a hit summers day if you wanted. Quick polite service, clean tidy lavatory avaliable.

This is by far the best pub around the Waterloo area. You can book a table, food is great and the service is fantastic! Seriously no waiting around! You have an outside bit too. Saturdays they sometimes have live music - Declan is a great singer. Highly recommend a visit!

Keep up the great work 👍 great service

Atmosphere was great, staff were friendly, amazing selection of beer

Fab pub, lively crowd, bar staff are lovely

Absolutely the best pub in the CUT. The staff are the friendliest i have come across in a very long time. Could be the best hidden gem in London👍🍺

Just had a couple of pints.The staff were friendly as were a wedding party having some after drinks.A pleasant place .

Had lunch on the bank holiday and food was good, staff were really friendly and there was a good atmosphere… certainly recommended

Long wait Excellent beer and wine Food without praise and without infamy Prices in line with the city

Booked a table online, which was easy to do. Staff very nice. We ordered food, which was very average. The Caesar salad was missing its anchovies and the chicken was really not good. I would recommend the pub, but not the food.

Guiness was average but nice outdoors

Great location to meet up at before moving on and it has great beers but gets way too busy. You can book tables but then have to turf others off when you arrive. Revisited again for a leaving do on a Tuesday night, much quieter and easier to get tables. Service and atmosphere were great.

Nice pub, lots of photos of actors on the wall to admire and guess the names.

One of the best quirky little establishments that central London has to offer, great selection of drinks, service, live music and a great vibe.

Fantastic Roast sirloin beef roast and a great IPA called Santiago. Service really friendly. All round a good hidden little pub.

Decent beer and pub food - nice burger and amazing onion rings the size of donuts!! Good atmosphere - definitely need to book a table!

A great place to wstch Six Nations Rugby.

Decent boozer. Great beers. Very cool venue for this area. Was pleasantly surprised

Friendly pub with a decent range of beers and ciders

Lovely atmosphere. Super friendly staff and lots of drinks options. Didn't eat so can't comment on that.

Been here a couple times after work. Good pints and a good atmosphere

Good beer range and friendly service. Have TVs but don't show football.

Worst place to work. Unorganised, and very clicky lazy staff.

Busy, plenty of friendly staff, spacious enough as well.

Good local pub with great ambience.

Nice staff and vibe, though £7+ a pint is pretty steep

Nice classic pub, good drinks selection, friendly staff, but smells overwhelmingly of wee, which tainted the taste of the drinks and ruined the atmosphere. Fairly expensive too.

Excellent staff and good food will pay a visit when we return to London

Nice Pub with a great atmosphere

We stopped by for lunch. service is ok, friendly staff, nothing major. it looks like a nice Pub, but the food was not good. not need to get too much in to details, but I will not return.

Quick meal and drink before the Festival Hall

Good place to eat after visiting the Old Vic. Good service and food. Interesting old pub.

Lovely friendly pub great service

Only drank in here ,but a decent pint of guinness.

The food is terrible. The only vegan option is chips, which are advertised as triple cooked - they are frozen. Shepards pie came without gravy and was dry. Haddock goujons were dripping in oil and virtually inedible. However as far as drinking goes, fairly reasonable price for the area. Staff are also lovely.

I've never had the food but the staff are really friendly and drinks are served fast. It does get really busy but has a nice atmosphere.

Great pub, plenty of seating with a huge drinks range

Great atmosphere and staff. Good place for an afternoon drink with plenty of seating outside if the weather's good! Food is good pub grub, and convenient location too. Highly recommended

Good selection of drinks and friendly bar staff but I don't reccomend the food. The burger was bad. Meat was overcooked, very dry and simply had no flavour. The fish and chips were ok but again no salt or flavour.

It is important that your staff receive proper training in delivering exceptional customer service and are reminded not to exploit tourists or individuals from different countries. Additionally, I kindly request that you ensure fair and transparent pricing for all your valued customers. Thank you for your attention to these matters.

Rip-off Pub avoid. £21.50 for a G&T and a Guinness. My haddock tasted off and smelt like the sewer.

Bacana, tomamos uma Guiness cada um, e pedimos Nachos que vem com vinagrete, queijo, guacamole; e outro prato peixe com batatas. Muito bom. Banheiro feminino limpo.

Really like this pub, always has a very nice atmosphere

Fabulous little bar with a lively vibe.

I received a warm welcome and sat outside in the sunshine with my pint. It was a nice afternoon and great for people watching. Next time I’ll try the food.

Just popped in for a drink when passing to get out the rain

Lovely place. Tasty food. A pub with great character and popular with locals and tourists. Very friendly staff.

Lovely place. Very busy. Booking recommended. Good selection of food and beverages and good hospitality.
