Woodins Shades in City of London, Westminster

One of many pubs around Liverpool street. Normally pretty reliable for sport, beers are always reasonable, staff were a bit off when I was asking if rugby was going to be played....but hey busy I suppose

Really great pub, I love the function room upstairs.

Great place to visit for a beer and the food we had was beautiful!

Nice friendly bar, with a great selection of beers. Plenty of staff on duty so service is prompt.

We just went to the bar for a beer There was loud music in the bar so we got a beer and then stood outside The bear is raging here and you can't help but be amazed Conclusion: you have to see it

Went on a night out with friends, good atmosphere, good people,.but as someone who lives outside of London everything is expensive.

Ten minute wait at the bar. Rude and sullen staff, and despite being asked to pay first, not one but two (ale) beers then discovered to be off, leaving me with no choice of drink. Nowhere to sit. Go somewhere else.

Service not so bad but clearing not so good very few customers at the time but plenty of empty glasses on the tables

Good atmosphere but slow service

A great alternative to Hamilton Halls or Dirty Dicks

Pub nothing more. The waitress didn't know her menu and everything we asked for wasn't there!

Had a lovely pint at this pub the staff are very lovely and Matt runs a good pub! We drank outside in the sun and watched the world go by!

A very good place for a few beers in central London. Friendly staff, good atmosphere and also quite good selection of various draftbeers.

Great pub always good for a few pints, great service and atmosphere.

Absolutely terrible food! We had a roast chicken dinner (far from cheap) - the roast potatoes were frozen, the stuffing balls were frozen, the veg consisted of frozen parsnips, 2 stems of ‘very wilted’ overcooked broccoli, and undercooked carrots. The best thing on the plate was the Yorkshire pudding! Would never go there again and if I could have given ‘no stars’ I would have!!

What a bad pint of Amstel Never go in there again Had one give them benefit of trying another Same dead beer Rough 🍺 would never recommend this place

It was a good experience in woodins. I went there at 7.30 pm. It is two storeys building, I went to the dining . Dining is very nicely decorated and plenty of space. I ordered beef shin pie. It served with gravy, carrots, mash potato. It was so delicious, shin pie is topped with crispy pastry. The service was so good. I got my food on time. Hope I will visit woodins again to enjoy the delicious pub food

Amazing staff and amazing service, amazing songs, also Vatsal Jariwala was super sweet and helpful. Thank you for bringing such amazing pub to the country!!:D

Amazing service and amazing staff! Vatsal was very helpful! Thank you for giving us brilliant music and wonderful staff!

Very fun pub and would recommend 100% loved the service from Vatsal and his team members

It is always a good time here. would never want to stop coming here.

Very good service thank you Ally

Cool night in Liverpool Street. Best service from Ali. Definitely will come again

Amazing place. Very friendly staff. Definitely will recommend to my friends

the drinks were great and decently priced

Popped in here for a drink after a long day visiting London. Perfect location for a nice cold Cider or two before getting on the train to head home. Nice pub, good Cider.

The Woodins is a great pub and Ali the bar maid pours a banging pint of Guinness

Dawn is very polite and he has really good service

I was here at 8pm on a Sunday evening and it was quiet. Despite that it took time to get served which was disappointing. This pub has a nice decor and is spread out on two floors. I opted for a 12yo double Balvenie scotch at £10.60. They did have four casl ales. The downstairs toilet was closed so I had to use the unpleasant upstairs toilet with it's wet floor. They do offer food although I did not eat. This is a nice pub, I will give it another go and hope for better service.

Ali served me today. She was so friendly and welcoming that in made the whole experience better. We had fish and chips and it was amazing. Would definitely recommend to friend.

Visited late lunchtime so the crush had dispersed. Popular pub so expect a crowd at busy times. Sandwiches come with fries chips or salad so be sure you're hungry.

Lovely venue!!! I never leave reviews but this one deserved it :)

Great pub ,great food .many thanks for Ali ,pro service 👍

Great food and service from Ali. Nice place for weekday drinks and kick off for the weekend!

Food (from what we got) was excellent. Such a great traditional London experience. The service was the worst I’ve ever had a restaurant. We waiting over 45 mins for our dessert. With barely and communication from the 2 female servers. When we told them we were going to leave, and we would like to pay for our meal and just not the dessert(which we never ended up receiving) they were somewhat rude and didn’t understand. There we others in there that were having the same problem. They weren’t super busy, but seemed to not have things organized or ready. I would suggest going somehwhere else if you need a traditional London meal

Busy city pub with a good atmosphere. Go early if you want a seat.

Was perfect! - they gave me a free pint to say this

They bribed me for 5 stars. Now changing back

Amazing service! Would come back anytime!

Had a blast Ali's service was amazing and would definitely come back again

had a lovely time enjoyed myself there while watching a football game and the security are very friendly, one guy called zak was helpful with directions when i was leaving

Lovely place to eat and cheap and staff were very helpful and friendly

Husband ordered steak on Friday night and got food poisoning. The steak was overly seasoned and I’m wondering whether the chef was masking it being off.

We had a great time here; the staff were friendly and it's a nice outdoor seating area.

BEST PLACE EVER FOR AN HONOURABLE MAN SUCH AS MYSELF - Mark Corrigan

Ali was the best, great customer service

Amazing, such a good pub. Staff are friendly and fun. The neck oil is outstanding.

First time down there had a great time the atmosphere is very warm it’s also a very welcoming vibe and the staff are excellent especially this one worker Zak really upped my experience with how friendly he is

great place to go especially to watch football. security are friendly too and make me feel secure, notably one guy named Zak

A beautiful pub with a great atmosphere. Nice staff and very clean and well maintained despite the store being full. Huge selection of drinks and typical dishes. Lots of tourists from all over the world. Highly recommended...... 👍🍺

WE LOVE ELLEN. SHE MADE OUR TRIP. She took the time to give us all the knowledge we needed to make our trip to London amazing and we are so grateful. We love you Ellen!! Matt & Emma the Aussies xxx

Great pub, excellent service. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!

First time in London and a pub it had aLovely atomsphere, staff were super friendly especially Zak who gave us recommendations in London to enjoy our stay more! 10/10!

Had an amazing time felt self and secure especially the lad Zak

Woodin shads was very nice, especially the security made me feel reallly safe and are really friendly especially the Latin one - Joe

Very nice pud Security made me feel very safe especially the Latin one - Joe.

Best English breakfast I’ve had in a while. Pairs well with a Spanish lager

Prices are too high for the portions, 9 for a small slice of bread with an egg on top and 4 for a small Coke, really not worth it, still hungry lol

Fish & chips are good, but the fish is thoroughly saturated with fat. Decent beer. Bathrooms to be renovated.

We went to the front of the place at 11 in the evening, even though we did not drink any alcohol, they said you are too drunk, you cannot enter. We thought about whether it was full, but 5 people entered after us, we need to ask them how they can decide this. It was a little rude and disrespectful.

Great service and delicious food.

Excellent pub with some outdoor seating.just had drinks but a good selection and the staff were very helpful when we needed some help.

Traditional English pub with an excellent breakfast, huge selection of drinks and a cozy atmosphere

Very nice atmosphere, the service is kind and helpful and the dishes taste very good

went for dinner 10.8.2024 went upstairs and sat and read the menus - nothing happened - after 20 minutes asked the bar staff who then said you have to order at the bar and they are too busy for table service. and if you order food it is a 30 minute wait. forget it there are plenty of other places locally. have been before and it was good. they need staff who know their job and can understand you. downstairs was not busy and staff should have been directed to help out upstairs with the food.

Solid no frills pub . Good after work crowd and good atmosphere from 5 -8pm almost every day. no complaints

Lovely pub with, really enjoyed my night ☺️ staff is very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend and will be back shortly!

Enjoyed a lovely pint of neck oil in here before catching my train home. Decent pub, good choice of beers and tv plus music.

Popped in after I finished work for a bite to eat. The burger was delicious and the service was quick and Tracey was fab. Will be back again.

Had a great time at this cozy pub in the heart of london

What a lovely pub. My friend and I popped in there yesterday. We had drinks and food. The food was delicious. The staff were very friendly and the service was top notch. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic venue just to meet up with friends for drinks at lunch or evening drinks and to have lunch/dinner all so with family in the upstairs restaurant. All the staff are welcoming and you also get served quickly, the management team are an always there to help. Great on a Saturday night when they have a live DJ at the venue. Also they are taking bookings for parties and for Christmas lunch.

great atmosphere. amazing food. friendly staff. sexy security might i add, my new weekly spot for sure.

Ordered food as part of a large group. Rest of my table were served their food and I waited patiently for my food. After about half an hour nothing. I asked at the bar and after speaking to two servers they finally admitted they hadn't ordered the food. No apology, they even tried to suggest a communication error on my part! Wouldn't recommend their chaotic service.

Tracey was a very lovely lady had a great smile and made me very comfortable which will make me come back and bring my friends and family here

Excellent food and very nice people working behind the bar. I was served very quickly and breakfast was proper traditional and super tasty.

Dominic, you rock mate! 🍹 Thank you for my cocktails! 🤘

This is a popular pub in the area. We sat upstairs which is much nicer than downstairs. Service was friendly and helpful (got table service). Ordered the sharing board which was good for two people (the others had already eaten and recommended the pies). Each of the components was tasty. Especially the duck croquettes. The padron peppers weren’t too big and had a good coating of salt. The chorizo was decent. Overall I liked it and would go back for a pie.

Good atmosphere helpful staff especially Maiya.

Went here for England Vs Switzerland and had a great time. The time for drinks and food to arrive was swift. One employee, Maiya worked well and efficiently to bring our drinks and food over and was so kind. We had a lovely time and the atmosphere was top tier.

Meet up with my 'old' district nurse colleagues for lunch 2-3 times a year and we always come here. There are other places but nice and quiet upstairs so we can hear each other, nice selection of food, and staff always great. This visit was no different. Luis was so lovely. Coped with our staggered arrivals, and checked out gluten free options with the chef for one of our party. Thanks Luis. We'll be back!

I went there today with my friend's to watch the England game and a nice lady named Maiya served us quickly and efficiently whilst always having a smile on her face.

Went there for the England v Switzerland game and it is one of the best pub experiences I’ve ever had. The atmosphere was amazing, the food was great and service was very quick, specifically a worker, Maiya. She was very quick with serving me and my friends our drink, despite the crowded area she would manage to collect glasses without trouble and overall she was very polite

The food was delicious, and the pub had incredibly fast service. One of the bartenders, Maya, was friendly and chatty. Definitely recommend!

Don’t visit pubs too often however this one had a cool atmosphere. I was a bit indecisive on what to order but maiya was really patient with me which I greatly appreciate 😭 She made the experience really nice, I think I found my go to spot!

Great customer service from Ellen,highly recommended.

Ellen is just an awesome manager. 3 of my friends and I were there last week Ellen helped us a lot.

Had such a great night, ellen served us really quickly

Love the pub. Great quality beer. Excellent good. Fantastic staff, especially Ellen. She was great, extremely patient, kind and professional. 10/10 will return.

George and Ellen made our experience so amazing. SUCH GOOD customer service.

Such a lovely pub, child friendly too. Had the pleasure of meeting Ellen (manager) and she goes above and beyond. The food is so tasty and always a lovely atmosphere. Would highly recommend popping in. See you again soon.

CJ is really nice!! Good service!!

CJ behind the bar was very friendly and professional.

Best pub in London compliments to CJ what a bar tender 👍👍👍👍👍

Gem of Liverpool St, lovely staff, stunning food, great feel to the place and a cracking selection beers on tap! Ellen was absolutely lovely and accomdating, got my dog a bowl of water as well!

Went down here on a Saturday a couple weeks back couldn’t fault the food it was very good the team are friendly and fun which creates a nice atmosphere especially when the dj is playing

Ellie is a lovely person helped us to get served at the bar very quickly and music was nice great place

Nice place, but the prices of drinks seem completely random, bought a couple rounds of the same (3) drinks, not far apart and prices were nearly 3 pounds different for the same thing . No itemised receipt either. Doubt I will be going back any time soon. Music too loud , but some might like that kind of thing.

Good selection of beers and lagers and food
