Fabulous pub getting back on its feet thanks to new manager Simon (who's genuinely a great guy). Excellent and highly valued local pub that's dog friendly with a great selection of beers which you can ask to taste before buying. Cannot wait for when they reopen the kitchen in a few months for food! It's away from the hustle of Battersea Park Road and is very family and community-centric. Great find and highly recommended. Update: 2024 food now available.

We popped in but had missed the kitchens food window ( we will be back for food!) but, the lady behind the bar was one of the best bar people I’ve come across in a while. She heard my friend telling me what the other 3 friends wanted to order while serving someone else, and confirmed it with me when she’d finished serving the other customer. Very switched on and very friendly- if only all bar staff were this good. The manager was also very helpful and friendly.

It pains me to put only 3 out of 5 stars on this because we (my partner and i) went here previously and it was absolutely amaizng and brilliant...however this was our second visit as a couple (it's actually my partners local tho) and I must stress..this place is amazing, whixh is 2hy I scored it 5 stars still. The big let down is we chose this place specifically because, besides how great the venue is, the service and atmosphere.. I'm a type 2 diabetic so I have to eat only low carb foods ideally. So the sausage bites, baked camnbert (however you spell it) and even the burgers (without bins) is all I can eat.. however they had none of these and intact the only thing left was vegan burgers, fish and chips ..whixh then after paying we were told isn't avaliable.. the waitress/bar girl was aweosme tho and offered to change it out to fish bites and refunded the difference in cash but it was reslly disappointing and took the edge off the relaxed dinner for 2 we had planned as I couldn't eat anything they had left. So basically I watched my partner have dinner then I went home. Bit of a let down... however...... ..I'm still marking thia place 5 out of 5 for overall because I know how good they are normally when it's not as busy (it was packed this eve we went) and the food quality is absolutely lovely.. so I will be taking her back there for a third go.. hopefully they have enough of everything available. Management please keep the sausage bites and cheese in stock? Also in their defence, it was the weekend of Bank Holiday so maybe they were trying to not order too much? I'm not sure. Atmosphere there is AMAZING staff are all lovely.. every one. We will come back again soon.

Yep, a great pint of Guinness. Although it was tolerated with every child and there parent at a weekend treating a public house like there personal playground which I found slightly tiresome. Thanks for being out of the way and most appreciative of showing some sport however if the prams and cockapoos could be limited I think a much better experience could be had.

Visited the newly opened Woodman for a friends birthday last night and it was genuinely one of the best experiences I’ve had at a pub. They accommodated us by the fire and gave free drinks and some chocolates for the birthday girl and did some shots with us. The kitchen isn’t quite up and running so they let us order pizza in but we will definitely be back for food when the kitchen is ready.

This used to be the best pub in Battersea, I used to come in here all the time, sadly since it's changed hands the service is awful, the beer is average and they play the most ghastly rap music. The only saving grace is the price of the pints! When compared to the quiz nights, fresh oysters and sterling single malts of the previous publicans it doesn't quite come up to scratch.... could try harder....

The menu is mostly Greek with a few English dishes. Dietary requirements were not listened to fully! Chips were frozen, the meals weren’t hot, the plant burger was a distant relative of what a plant burger should look and taste like, many dishes were “off” the menu, and there were only two other diners there, whereas The Woodman used to be packed by 8.30- the time we had had enough of the lacklustre food and disinterested staff, apart from the embarrassed waiter, who had the good grace to apologise. They don’t answer their phone or emails and their website is from the previous owners.

We took a friend with a dietary requirement for her Birthday to the Woodman. We paid 2 visits in person to make sure they can provide her with a simple Jacket potato with butter and cheese on the side . I even followed it by an email which went unanswered. We turned up yesterday evening for this Birthday dinner. Not only the potato was served with cheese and butter on top , which was returned by this Lady , there was no cheese , biscuits or bread for this lady to eat. In fact half the menu was not available due to Bank holiday. In fact this lady ended up eating a sorbet for her Birthday dinner . In spite of my protest of my protest , they charged me for both the Jacket potato which was sent back and the sorbet. The manager was not there for us to complain too. My burger was also a disaster. The bacon was uncooked.. They are complacent , grandiose , amateurs with no idea how to entice customers or serve decent food. Never Again.

Can’t recommend this enough! Sunday roast (meet and vegetables) was perfectly cooked, the fish and chips was excellent, the service was great and friendly, and the manager (Komninos) was happy to chat with us and tell us about his new venture. Woodman is a new gem in the Battersea area. Located in a quite area, easily reachable by Santander bike, it preserves its traditional character and has the vibes of a non-mainstream freehouse. Great selection of desserts (with some really good ones from Turkey and Greece) and a carefully crafted wine list! Can’t wait to go back!

Since changing owners the food menu has increased but not with quality. what used to be a small but good menu is now huge. Ordered chicken wings for almost £8 and 6 tiny wings arrived- the side salad was bigger than the portion of wings. New owners should have a re-look at their menu and prices, shocking.

I used to be so proud to have this great gastropub as my local, but in line with all the other reviews since the change of ownership a few months ago, it’s not what it used to be. The food quality is well below the previous standards, and yet more expensive, and the atmosphere is non-existent, presumably because all the other regulars have had the same experience I had. And yes, they can’t even deep fry fish batter properly, we were also served some soggy coated fish.

Fish and chips soggy, fish oozed grease and the batter was wet, bright yellow and tasted of katsu curry. Sent back to the kitchen, the plate was returned and I was told I could have another but it would just be the same. Katsu curry itself not crispy and again, the batter was 'soggy'. Very expensive for what you are served. It's a shame because the pub is nice and the bar staff friendly. I would go for drinks but not to eat again.

Drinks good and bar staff friendly (the only reason for the 3 star)! We ate in the bar because we had a dog with us which was no problem, but the food was TERRIBLE. I sent back the fish and chips because the fish was soggy, oozing with 'liquid' and the batter bright yellow and tasted of katsu curry (another item on the menu). I was told I could have another but that it would be the same. Really, really disappointing. Hopefully the restaurant end is better, because what I was served looks nothing like photos from other reviews of this pub.

I have to say unfortunately I agree with the last review from Reuben. The Woodman was one of my favourite pubs in the area for drink and good quality pub food. Hadn't been for a year or so, and I understand it has changed hands in the last month or so. The menu is pre dominantly Greek, over priced I think (even with price increases) as is the red wine, 2 bottles at £25 and then jumps up to £40 odd quid! We were the only people eating on a Saturday night. Few people in the pub but also very quiet. One positive was our waiter (who used to work with the old owners) - he was very good. But that being said I wouldn't rush back, which is a real shame.

Fantastic food, shocking service. Sat in our reserved table for 15 minutes before anyone asked if we'd like a drink. When the food (Sunday roast) did arrive it was excellent. But they didn't ask us how it was, if we'd like condiments, and they got our drinks order wrong. I can let it slip when they're extremely busy, but we sat there watching the staff chat amongst themselves whilst we waited for someone to take our order. The waitress took my plate away whilst my partner was still eating, then left her empty plate on the table for 20 minutes before asking if we'd like dessert. Such a shame that great food is let down by amateur service.

We booked for a table of 17, the day before they cancelled with this pitiful excuse! After we booked we were told that we have to order the same within our group, although we were never told this we excepted it as it would be unlikely to find somewhere with such short notice with our size! To then be told less then 24hr before with this email is a joke, so beware anyone booking their Xmas party with them! I called and the bar staff answered the phone he said he could not help and it wasn’t his problem, he asked me who my email was from and I replied the woodman he replied what no name and I said no just signed from the woodman, he said I suggest you find out who emailed you and put the phone down, I tried to call back no answer!

We were seated and drinks order taken quite quickly.The food took slightly longer than we expected which meant that we were not able to order dessert due to closing at 10 also was not ableto make changes to the dishes...

El pub es obviamente un lugar popular entre los lugareños y los visitantes por igual. Tuvimos una larga charla con la encantadora casera que nos hizo sentir muy cómodos durante estos tiempos difíciles debido a COVID - 19.

The Woodman me pidió que escribiera un informe y, aunque no lo había hecho durante algún tiempo, pensé que lo haría. . . . . . .La comida era buena, el servicio en la mesa era bueno y nos recordaron que nos fuéramos antes de las 10 de una manera profesional y amigable. 20 minutos antes de que nos fuéramos, el personal decidió pasar la aspiradora muy cerca de la mesa.Sin embargo, la bienvenida al frente de la casa fue una experiencia muy diferente. Obviamente, en estos tiempos difíciles, puedo comprender el comportamiento ansioso tanto del cliente como del personal, pero casi nos alejamos. Nos dijeron que nos pusiéramos las máscaras antes de entrar al restaurante y esto es completamente comprensible. Lo que no es aceptable es que me digan, mientras trato de localizar el mío, que podría venderme uno por 2. No nos dieron tiempo para encontrarlo, error mío. Una vez que localicé el mío (los otros ya estaban enmascarados al llegar) nos hicieron esperar una cantidad innecesaria de tiempo mientras él jugueteaba, podía vernos claramente esperando afuera. ¡Una experiencia completa y desagradable!

I wrote last year that this is our favourite pub. A lot has changed, globally, since then but not at The Woodman! I’m here tonight for my first trip to a pub since March (because of lockdown and quarantine; our last pub was also here ). Unsurprisingly, the food, drinks and service are all still great. The atmosphere is, as always, welcoming and cosy while respecting all current guidelines. Whether you’re local or just passing through Battersea, stop by and treat yourself!

Four of us came here for the first time for Sunday lunch. From start to finish the afternoon was exceptional. We all had starters which were delicious then all chose the roast pork. Without a doubt, it was one of the best pub roasts I’ve ever had. For £16 the portion size was extremely generous and the food was outstanding.The accompanying wine list was very good and reasonable too. And not that we needed it but the desserts topped the afternoon all.Thank you for a lovely afternoon and the staff were fab too!

I love the woodman. The food is really great and the service amazing. House wine is very good value and if you go on Steak Night you’ll get a great value steak cooked how you like it.

I will declare an interest upfront this is my local and whilst I drink here, I don't eat here as much as I should. This is not the fault of the pub, more the fact there is so much choice in SW London that you want to try and eat everywhere else. The food has always been good here under the excellent stewardship of the pub by Ruben and his family but with the recruitment of Rupert from the Cross Keys over in Chelsea, the food has taken a noticeable uptick.We had a late Sunday lunch with the four of us arriving at about 5.30pm, two of us had the roast chicken, which was in fact half a chicken. I had the roast beef which was lovely and pink and again a substantial amount. Roast potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. It was an excellent roast dinner. If you did a goggle image search of a roast dinner then The Woodman Roast dinner would be the first image you would find. I would also like to mention the fact the staff here are consistently phenomenal, I often find that good restaurants in London are let down by poor service with disinterested staff. That is not the case here. Staff are friendly, helpful and always keen to ask if there is anything else you need. It really is a joy to eat here, thoroughly recommend it.

I stopped going here when the place changed hands and went down hill, but for some time the owners have been back and doing sterling work. Food and service are excellent. Well done The Woodman for turning it around. I will be coming back again

Read reviews and planned visit on trip to London, were fully booked but fitted us in, food was better than some high end restaurants, quality was exceptional and the chef is a hidden gem, the whole meal was a delight. The customer service was fantastic , there's many a business that could learn from this little hidden gem. The atmosphere was friendly, welcoming and I would recommend to anyone and everyone. 5 stars

Tuve mi almuerzo de cumpleaños aquí el domingo pasado y pasé un tiempo fabuloso. El pub es realmente tranquilo y amable. Los asados de los domingos son increíbles, ¡nunca había visto Yorkshire Puddings más grande! Teníamos un grupo grande que incluía varios niños y el personal fue muy atento y la comida llegó bastante rápido. Definitivamente, recomendaría este pub para reuniones familiares. ¡Espero volver pronto sin los niños también!

Acabo de tener una comida para 22 personas y debo decir que el personal fue fantástico y también la variedad de comida era excelente. El asado del domingo que tuve fue fantástico y la forma en que el personal manejó a un gran número de personas mostró la experiencia que tienen para dirigir un pub tan agradable.

Great experience at The Woodman. We went for a Sunday lunch and the food was brilliant. Roast beef was amazing. The staff were very attentive, we didn’t have to ask for anything like water etc. The wines were great too. We felt looked after and would highly recommend.

Called in on the spur of the moment late Saturday afternoon. Lovely atmosphere. Sat by the window. Staff very attentive. Menu looked amazing. Chose the 8oz Fillet steak. Steak was cooked to perfection. Thoroughly recommend eating here and will definitely return again in the near future.

This is one of my favourite pubs, if we lived a little closer we would be here every weekend. I love the roast lamb and the cheeseboard is to die for. We have been coming here for over a year now and have always had excellent food and very good service. It is a family run pub which makes all the difference. You receive a warm welcome as soon as you step inside especially when Joe and Helen are there. I find the review below a complete fabrication, at best its mistaken the pub or at worst by someone who has a gripe, always a bit suspicious when lies are clearly written and another pub is recommended. I have never heard any staff in there swear or behave in the manner that has been written! Joe is one of the most polite young men you could meet. All I can say is if you have not been, try for yourself and you will not be disappointed. Highly recommend the Fish Friday menu and if you go for a Sunday lunch the lamb is delicious.

Went to the woodman for a few drinks with friends, as you do in a pub. Sat outside as were larger group and to avoid disturbing any other customers. Manager of the bar, who is son of owner/chef, thought he was Tommy Shelby. Became verbally abusive and aggressive challenging customers to fights for no apparent reason. Eventually his own dad had to come and calm the situation down. I highly recommend that you avoid this pub and head to the Latchmere round the corner

I found this pub whilst cycling home from work one evening and popped in for a glass of wine and have been back a few times with friends since. The pub is very cozy and welcoming, the staff are super friendly and the food is delicious. It's quickly becoming my new local!

Do not pick this venue if you wish to have a good time with friends. They are extremely unwelcoming to non locals. The bar staff and manager are rude and aggressive using explicit language totally unnecessarily.
