The Woolpack in Southwark

We hired the room upstairs for a Christmas work event. service was perfect. Great vibes. well done to the Woolpack for making our event so special and cozy!

Nice pub but very busy and a bit noisy. Good service - a lot of bar staff serving. Good selection of beers.

Did the Woolpack on Friday night, Great Beers and what a bar and outside area. We were def the oldest ones there, great vibe and friendly.

We used The Woolpack for our work Christmas party last Thursday, hiring the function room upstairs. It was excellent, a decent sized room, which created a great atmosphere for around 40 people. The food was great and we had Alex looking after us and providing bespoke drinks, he was superb - friendly, attentive and professional. A wonderful evening and we would definitely recommend.

Bermondsey’s Best-Kept Secret The Wool Pack in Bermondsey is everything you want in a great pub. From the warm, friendly vibe to the perfectly poured pints, it’s a place that feels like home the moment you walk in. Their drinks menu is spot-on, with a great mix of craft beers, wines, and cocktails, while the food is nothing short of delicious. Whether it’s a classic pub dish or their unbeatable Sunday roast, every bite hits the mark. Also Alex was just awesome! Made us all (including our dogs) feel welcome! Don’t miss the gorgeous beer garden—it’s perfect for sunny afternoons or cozy evenings with friends. Add to that the lovely staff and buzzing atmosphere, and you’ve got a spot you’ll want to visit again and again. Simply put, The Wool Pack is Bermondsey at its best!

The staff are fun and so accommodating! We love Mia! Food was delicious!

Great food and Guinness! Thank you Mia!

Excellent pub. Food was amazing, had the roast pork belly and the apple crumble. Service top notch.

Lovely food. Great selection of drinks. Our waiter Alex was very super friendly and helpful

Fabulous place, great food, good ambience, love the decor. Love Mia!!!

Love coming to the woolpack, their food is always great, staff and service so good and also very dog friendly! Alex was super friendly and great with the dogs! Mulled wine is also amazing!!

One of the best pubs in London, warm and cozy vibes with great service, delicious food and Alex our waiter was an absolute legend. Will be back next time I’m in London.

Visited here with friends and it was so fun and Christmassy! Alex made sure we had a super lovely time. Sunday roast was a winner

Good food, good atmosphere, a proper pub, Alex our server was excellent

Proper pub, great food, Alex was very lovely

Great pub, food was amazing and service from alex was great as well!

Really cool place but sometimes at lunch the wait for food is over 45 minutes… it’s also not your average pub prices for everyday lunch if you work or live nearby. The beer garden is decent sized and lots of people come to this place at all times. Would recommend for catching up with friends and colleagues.

Really lovely for a festive drink or cosy meal. Thé fairy lights, warm toned lighting and Christmas decorations made for a lovely setting no to catch up with an old friend. The service overall was friendly and attentive. Dan in particular gave a warm welcome that was really appreciated.

Private event for work, as always it was great service and food was very good. Alex was great.

Always buzzy but never a queue at the bar. Our default stop in the area. Tardis like back garden with covers and heaters out back. Not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for. Grab a Scotch Egg if you're lucky enough to be in before they're all gone!

Great food and cosy place to meet for after work drinks or dinner with friends.

Booked last minute and had a lovely time, gorgeous food, cosy atmosphere and great drinks, would recommend!

Nice cosy pub, hadn’t been before but lots of staff so the bar queue goes quickly. Had some small plates which were generous in size. Would recommend!

Very good vibe in a great location.

Chose The Woolpack for a small team reunion. Reserved a table in the bar area which a helpful member of the team made available at the time reserved. Excellent service from the bar staff and a great atmosphere. Didn't eat (hence no rating).

A well sized pub with plenty of outdoor seating. The drinks range is wide so caters for a lot of people.

Very good place to relax and have a good time

Best pub in the area by miles and the service is lovely. great service from Margaret, we had a lovely dinner upstairs!

Always an amazing time at the Woolpack! The handsome Tai and Dan were top notch with their services. The steak chimichurri is my favourite!

Great, proper, London pub! Came for lunch last week, with an old friend that has just moved to London from his native Hungary! The staff were so friendly, so accommodating, and especially patient with my companion, for whom English is not his first language! Great food, Guiness was perfect, and a wholly enjoyable experience. I will certainly be back and recommending to others.

Celebrated my friends leaving drinks here and it was perfect. Thank you for being so accommodating! Enjoy the pic of us with our finished plates ahaha!

Great service, GREAT music, great vibes all around!!

Great vibes! Would highly recommend!

Fantastic pub! Service is brilliant, the food is delicious. Shoutout to the wonderful staff!!! They really made the experience even better :)

Lovely pub and atmosphere. Thanks for a great evening!

Booking was easy and staff were so kind and helpful. I loved the vibe and music was great!

Amazing place with great service! Definitely recommend!!!🫶

Amazing atmosphere and great food.

Really great food and the service is amazing.

Terrible!!!! We visited this pub due its high ratings and the fact that it’s dog friendly. Be warned that if you book with a dog you will be sat in the pub area for dining, there is no table service, it is very loud and busy and the service is very bad. We ordered starters and main each, when the food came out they brought our main with our starter. When we asked why the main was with the starter they said “the kitchen is very busy” and “we just had to have the food in whatever order it came out”. We said we are not doing that, so they took the main away whilst we ate starters. When the mains came out they were cold, dry and had been sitting being warmed whilst we ate starters. We had to send back some of the mains as they were inedible. If you are looking for a nice, cosy dog friendly pub with good food and service- this is not it and I would recommend you go somewhere else.

Wow! Loved the atmosphere here, we will definitely return soon!!!

This is one of my favourite places to go spend my nights out ,the service is amazing,the team is really friendly and helpful and the food is amazing especially the Camembert and Chicken burger 🥰

An absolute formidable Pub where to spend time with family and friends. GREAT FOOD AND SERVICE!!

Margo was an amazing waitress and was very attentive and pleasant, had the pork roast and would recommend. The ambience and decor are top notch

The ceiling is on par with the Sistine Chapel, you have to see it to believe it... Good guiness too

Great pub with a cosy upstairs room, recommend the pear crumble

Margo is the best waitress ever!

Wonderful pub for any day. Great Sunday roast. Lively atmosphere. Delicious food. Service 10/10 especially Margot who was really sweet and attentive. Highly recommend it.

Nice and lively pub even during the weekday afternoons

Short walk from London Bridge. Fun atmosphere (cosy inside and lots of garden space) and delicious food. The service was very attentive and friendly, the bar staff gave our dog a sausage roll and a bowl of water.

Alex was excellent !! Superb service

I great friendly pub with amazing food. Came on a Saturday lunch time had some great food. Great choice of beers and the really great friendly staff. Will definitely be coming again.

I’ve actually had a great time with my friends and my dog who got a free sausage roll cause he was hungry. It’s busy but not mad like borough market where you can’t get a seat. I like it and it’s friendly

Lovely pub, really convenient location and super easy to order. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing service from Alex and good vibes all around!

Alex was such a lovely server. Great place, great vibes. Loved it

Alex was amazing, great night and lovely people

Had a great time at the Woolpack! The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, and the staff, especially Alex, were fantastic—super friendly and attentive. Highly recommend for a relaxing pint or a fun night out!

Great little pub and a proper high-street one with real ales. Avoid the £5 sausage roll though - gave me the runs!

Great atmosphere and staff were very friendly and helpful

Great Pub with a Cozy Vibe! I had a fantastic time at the Woolpack. The atmosphere is relaxed, the staff is friendly, and the food and drinks are top-notch. The schnitzel was a highlight. Whether you’re looking for a casual drink or a great meal, this pub delivers. Highly recommend!

Not a great place. Miserable bar staff. Need a few lessons on hospitality.

The woolpack in Bermondsey is a lovely classic pub in Bermondsey, with gorgeous tiled walls and exterior and a classic pub menu with some really delicious choices. Alex was a friendly and well mannered lad. The food was good and everyone enjoyed. a wicked place I would definitely come back to

Visited this pub last night with a group of 10 of my best friends all in their 50's (Male and Female) . We were greeted by a miserable member of the bar staff who obviously didn't want to serve anybody. Half way through our drink a bouncer came over and tapped one of our group on the shoulder and told him to leave as he apparently had upset a member of the bar staff by supposedly making a rude hand gesture to her. In fact all he was doing was ordering 2 sausage rolls! The attitude of the bouncer was all wrong. The manager was called who agreed that maybe the bar staff had got the wrong end of the stick but made no attempt to resolve the situation. I suggest that you train your staff in customer service as I expect you will receive many more reviews like this.

I recently visited The Woolpack to meet family for lunch and brought my dog along, as their website mentioned they’re a dog-friendly pub. However, upon arrival, I was initially refused access upstairs because of my dog, which was a bit disappointing. After some back and forth, I was allowed to bring my dog upstairs. While it’s not exactly my kind of pub, I can see why it’s popular—there’s a nice atmosphere, and it’s well-suited for gatherings. If you’re planning to bring a dog, though, it might be worth double-checking their seating policies in advance.

Fabulous pub with attentive friendly and helpful staff. Had a lovely meal too which was great value for the location and standard. Highly recommend.

Lovely traditional pub. Great outdoor space, with nice atmosphere and heaters. Good food and drink options. Recommend!!! 👌🏼

A fish finger bap and a chicken sandwich with shared fries and 2 medium glasses of wine =£55.81? I need to retire somewhere else.

My friends and I used to come here for about a year for our after-work-drinks. We absolutely loved this pub and looked forward to coming every week. Unfortunately we came here this evening and the service we received was absolutely horrendous. We arrived as a group of 6, where a pair of us had ordered our two drinks. When the couple behind us ordered their drinks, the ‘light’ suddenly came on. Despite the pair asking for 4 pints on their order; they were only given 2 pints as the light came on halfway through ordering. The bar staff claimed that the pair ‘refused’ to pay for their drinks and poured them out in front of their eyes. I asked for a refund on my 2 drinks, as we came as a group and therefore as we were leaving due to our friends being ‘refused’ their drinks, the bar staff told us that we ‘cared too much’ and said that we should just go home. Ultimately I must admit that we did get our refund, however this was fought hard for and made our evening extremely unpleasant and was, in-fact, quite embarrassing to have to justify our situation, especially in front of customers, who were shaking their head at how the bar staff were communicating with us. The bar staff were ultimately rude to all of us and I could not believe their attitude and customer service despite getting to know them so well after the years.

Great quick and friendly service

Great little pub with large beer garden (heaters).

A delightful place, with a great selection of wines. A cosy outdoor area with lots of space

Always a lovely vibe in this pub - very friendly staff and a massive beer garden! Food is also decent, lots of options

I didnt have any food but the service was beyond superb. My friends and I sat in the back garden and the team was very attentive in removing glasses and bringing us drinks 10/10 very kind very polite!

Big outside beer garden in the back. A few tables out front for people watching. Service was pretty fast. Mid to high price for pints.

Great pub, nice atmosphere for a chill one after work.

The pub is very aesthetically pleasing, and it has a great atmosphere, but for the second time in a row, the service was unfriendly and unhelpful. 3/5.

Excellent service and great atmosphere!

A busy pub. Cool decor. The beer garden is unusually large but not as well decked out as the interior. The staff are pretty aware and good working under pressure. The prices of beer are London prices so not cheap. A good atmosphere though and in a great central location. Make sure you check upstairs too!

Love this pub! Good beers, great vibe!

What a place. Simply heaven. The pub of all pubs. I reckon I’ll come back 5 times a week. Ps, the Sunday roasts are a must have.

Alex was so good to us. Cannot recommend this place enough. Alex is the best, he’s the best.

Stepped into this pub after a huge rain fall. It was a nice discovery. Very warming ambiance, cosy, and friendly. Really enjoyed the warm Mac & Cheese with beer! Their fish and ship looked good too.

Came here for the first time yesterday!! Alfie our server was so polite and charming. Woolpack is one of the best pubs in London.

Great pub, warm friendly service with great atmosphere. Still one of the best in town.

It's a great pub to go to after work for drinks. The ground floor near the bar is buzzing with young adults chatting and laughing, and there is a lot of noise, so one can't hear and talk if you are a large group or with family. The upper floor is quiet, with middle-aged people sitting and enjoying their drinks.

Service and place very good. But I had the chicken roast it was the smallish piece if chicken I've ever had and over cooked and gents toilets very smelky

Great vibes, good beers, and crowdy, amazing place

Sensational Sunday roast - perfect portion size and swift service. I give it 9 roast potatoes out of 10! My ex-wife clumsily spilt her vodka and orange over her plate and they swiftly replaced it with no additional charge or fuss. If only the staff could have helped mediate my divorce then maybe I wouldn’t be living out of my car!

Popped in here meeting some of my wife's family. The large beer garden was a welcome surprise & the bar staff were friendly and efficient.

Great British pub. Took some important clients from Italy and they were not disappointed. Very trendy and the place to be. Staff were very pleasant.

Great vibes and great service - Alfie in particular was a gem

Favourite local pub! Great for a Sunday roast.

Lovely food and atmosphere ! Perfect for a Saturday lunch.

Food was delish!!! Great service and fab atmosphere!

Best pub in South London - beer garden gets sun all day and immaculate vibes!

Great food! Amazing vegan options will definitely be back

Lovely chicken burger and atmosphere.

Delicious food and great atmosphere! Would recommend

Great London pub with fab food and drinks options and buzzy atmosphere! 🍔🍷🍺
