Food is great, had the steak & ale pie and it was delicious. Waiter wasn't friendly but service was okay and food was served quite quickly!
We tried the Wednesday night pie and pint special and we're not disappointed. The food was tasty and the staff friendly. Would highly recommend this restaurant.
Good comfort food in cosy upstairs room. Great stop off on historical tour of the area.
Great vibe and food, very good service! I would definitely go there again.
Amazing pub but the staff are a bit grumpy and not very accommodating. There is a venue across the street which hosts events until 9:30. Would be a perfect match except the pub refuses to keep the kitchen open past 9:30 so food had to be pre paid and was laid out cold before we got there. Not very imaginative....
Fantastic looking pub in a great location. Sunday lunch was tasty with a generous portion. Particularly good service.
Great food and service on Fathers' Day. Terrific views from the terrace pre-lunch, cosy period dining room, real period not fake. Well worth re-visiting. 10/10
Great place, easy to access, right at the Thames with a terrace over the riverside. The food is one of the best one can get in a London pub. The atmosphere is divine, service is attentive, efficient, professional and just lovely. You want to feel London? Go there. We'll be back!
Great local riverside pub with bags of atmosphere and history. amazing selection of food being cooked and served better than most "pub grub" establishments. a good selection of wines and beers all well cared for. above all the staff are very friendly and keen to offer a great experience to the customer.
Very good food and a nice atmosphere. We will come back!
Great beer, Good food and service. Relaxed atmosphere despite being very busy. Amazing view across the Thames. Good and frequent public transport from nearby Rotherhithe London Overground station. Right next to the Brunel museum.
Loved it! We took my 91 year old Mum to The Mayflower for Sunday lunch and although the place was buzzing the staff were so lovely and attentive. Maybe we got extra special attention because of my elderly mum but we felt really looked after and my mum felt she was enjoying a real treat. My husband chose the burger and chips and said it was the best burger he has had in recent memory. Mum and I both chose roast lamb. It was delicious. My Mum could not eat all her lunch and they offered to box it up for her to finish at home. Can't wait to return.
Very good food and service. Especially good for history buffs too. I highly recommend The Mayflower. The menus contained something for everyone from steak and venison to veggie and even one or more vegan dish.
I have been to the Mayflower before and I already knew that the place would be beautiful and welcoming, and the food amazing. My parents and I had the Sunday roast (the veggie option was exceptionally good) and finished it off with a dessert that was delicious (and caused us to have to roll all the way home). The waitress who served us was lovely tooand very helpful. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.
The day may not have been sunny, but the service certainly was. Delicious pies with all the trimmings & tasty beers.
Everything was fantastic my Dutch friends enjoyed themselves, the ambiance, fab food, wonderful service and friendly staff All want to visit the Mayflower again Thank You for making it such a good experience
casual pub dining with good wholesome food.. great selection of beers and wines, and friendly attentive staff. Have eaten here several times and never disappointed.
Great local pub on the river, serving a serious choice of food and nice ales and wine selection, the staff are friendly and accommodating. A place to visit and chill with friends and family.
I love the Mayflower pub! It has such a great cosy atmosphere and fantastic location sitting over the Thames. I've been quite a few times as it is local to me and they've never failed to serve up delicious food and a great drink! Highly recommend.
A wonderful pub, with delicious food and friendly, helpful staff.
Sunday Roast was excellent. They ran out of some desserts. Love candelight dinners.
Loved this place ....away from all the tourists just perfect ! The service was excellent and the " pub" food was delicious ...would go back
Wonderful riverside location, with the restaurant on the first floor overlooking the river through big windows. Even though the restaurant was full, the service was very attentive. The food is beyond compare, complemented by a tasty, good value Sauvignon Blanc. Highly recommended.
This is the best place on the river Thames, of you haven't been there yet then you best change that. The food, drink and service...
Loved the quiz! But too hard! Will definitely come back!
A traditional and historic pub with friendly staff and excellent food and drink. Memorable cheese board. It was my first visit for around 40 years, so I was introducing it to my family. A perfect venue for a meal after my son's 21st birthday trip up the Shard.
It was a lot smaller inside than I expected, but the service was good. The servers were friendly and the food arrived fast. I did expect the view from the inside (upstairs room) to be a lot better than what it was. Also it was totally grilled up. Felt a bit like jail :) The beer garden was a lot better but of course, it was very crowded and so hard to find any space. All in all, it was a good experience.
Definitely one of my favourite pubs in London. Beautiful venue on the river side. Relaxed and cheerful atmosphere and great beers at decent price. The food is lovely, too.
Reasonable pub food with some reservations: Service was very good, and the pub itself is atmospheric, but the food, while not bad, is uninspiring. I've been a couple of times now and on both occasions food has been delivered lukewarm and not of the highest quality. I would go back, but with limited enthusiasm.
Great food and atmosphere, lovely old pub right next to the Thames
Great, historic location and atmosphere. The menu choice was good. good service. Perhaps the drinks were a little expensive. Will take the family there again
I absolutely love this pub and have not had a bad meal yet (and I've been lots)!
Excellent food and friendly service. Chose haddock and chips which were very good. My guest had the salad with feta cheese and Welsh lamb which was delicious
The Mayflower is the best. Pub/restaurant with Incredible food, excellent Service and stunning views of the River
We were acommodated despite a confusion arising out of the booking process, and had a great time and also a pleasant meal by the river.
Very interesting old pub. Excellent food. We had the Sunday lunch and enjoyed the views of the Thames and the good service from all the staff. A good selection of real ales for those who enjoy them.
Great food, drink and atmosphere, would definitely go there again!
Absolutely excellent, lovely food, friendly staff and a lovely atmospheric place. Would highly reccommend the dining room or the more informal pub style downstairs. Also, great views and atmosphere from the jetty.
One of the best old pubs on the river , good food real nice ales and good selection of wines etc. With the added bonus of great friendly staff keen to make your experience well worth it.
A great old British pub on the river, good food, great wines, and stunning beers inc real ales what's not to like? It also helps that all the staff are lovely and friendly in serving you with pleasant smiles.
The staff were really lovely and the space we had was fantastic! Thanks! Everyone had a great time - will be back!
A new selection of guest beers and a tasty election of specials made for a pleasant evening
One of the best traditional British food place. Please, mind the kitchen timing. They will allow you to book a table at 8.30pm on a Sunday and then tell you that the kitchen closed 30 min ago.
Always a pleasure to go here for dinner, as usual the food was perfect, the staff are so attentive and lovely and a great atmosphere!
Recently my wife and I spent six delightful days in London. The light crew on American Airlines recommended and raved about “The Mayflower” pub way out on Rotherhite Street. They assured us it was worth the trip out to the historical docks areas of south east London. We did and it was! BE SURE to call ahead and make a reservation for the upstairs dining room. The whole menu looked yummy. We settled for two savory pies and were not disappointed at all. The young lady who served us (Fatima we think) was just simply charming. What a pleasant evening this was.
Excellent food and very friendly service! The pub dates back to the 1600s and has great charm. Very convenient to public transportation. Strong recommend a visit!!
My favourite pub in London and their Sunday Roast certainly didn't dissappoint.
We had an amazing Sunday lunch! They cater perfectly for veggies too & we had a blast :) Thank you so much Mayflower, we will most definately be back again!! Cheers,
The specials were, as always, top notch. We went for the quiz but ate at the same time and enjoyed both. The lamb was really tasty as was beef pie
Nice pub, lovely service and staff but let down by the food. We both had the roast dinner; the beef was chewy, the yorkshire pudding was a little burnt and the vegetables weren't very fresh. It's a shame as I really like the venue.
