The Trafalgar Tavern

There were 4 in our party and we all enjoyed the experience. We arrived earlier than the time we booked so sat outside and enjoyed the view and atmosphere, with a couple of drinks. The restaurant was busy and we had a little wait for our meals. The food was very good and the staff very pleasant. Overall we had a very enjoyable time.

Great afternoon , my mums 89 th birthday , thanks . Great caring service with a smile was really appreciated . Great table with views to the Thames and food very good.

The food was great and the view in the river really makes it a great spot!

Lovely evening with friends at the Trafalgar. Good location right next to the river. Beer, food, and service were very good. A bit pricey but didn't detract from the overall experience.

The food was delicious the service was good and the pub was very clean and beautiful window view. The only improvement that could be made would be more vegetables with the Sunday Roast.

We sat in the window overlooking the Thames on a Saturday evening, not too busy and the food was extremely good. I highly recommend this lovely, historic pub / restaurant.

First they brought the wrong drinks then, 30 minutes after ordering food, they came back to say they’d given us the wrong menu. After a further 30 minutes, and two complaints, the starters arrived together with the main for one of my grandchildren. The food for my other grandchild wasn’t served despite repeated requests. The starters had way too much salt in them. Then we went through the same process with the mains. Eventually the waiter came back to say that one of the dishes we had ordered had run out. The manager then turned up and tried to placate us with free wine. We politely explained we wanted food not wine. When the mains turned up they were laced with salt to the point of being unpleasant. Vegetables were almost raw and belly of pork couldn’t be cut with a knife. We asked for the bill, twice, and they had removed the charge for the bottle of wine we had. After spending £130 and 2 hours on a simple two-course meal we left. I wouldn’t recommend the restaurant to anybody but felt they deserved the Basil Fawlty restaurant of the year award.

Great location by the river and interesting memorabilia on display .We enjoyed the meal and sampled some of the vast collection of gins that were available. Bit quiet on a Tuesday but the staff were helpful and agreeable.

Very dissapointing experience. The pub has been renovated recently and entirely lost it’s character. The service was poor, and rushed at every stage. The food was average. What happened to this place? It was one of our favourite pubs in Greenwich and now, quite frankly, it has been ruined.

I always chose the Trafalgar when I have to take for dinner friends from abroad. this time I was disappointed. I was never old that the place in under refurbishment and I got given a table for 5 in the bar area not even wide enough to have plates next to each other. If I had known I would have picked somewhere else, the food was average pub food and not the usual good, classy dishes. I will go again once the refurbishment is finished, and I hope that they will prove me wrong!

Saturday night visit - Great food, quite loud and busy atmosphere, service a little slow but overall a good experience. Would definitely return for another visit.

Cannot really fault the food, it was okay. service however was not so good. I Our waitress was hopeless. She toppled a drink all over the place. Couldn't under stand our drinks order. Didn't explain what the specials were, until asked. We had to wave at her to get another drink. To make matters worse my cousin found a random metal screw in her Linguine and after investigation they couldn't understand how it got there and didn't even offer her a free dessert!!

Lovely view of the river. Good food and service - although the wine is expensive for a pub! More so when 12.5; service charge added.

A great place to be, local historical London ambience at its best. What more could you want ...make sure you book a table over looking the Thames but of course other tables and outside good too, good food and great service!

Reception was excellent. Our guests had arrived from Sarrasota, Florida. Having been born and raised in Greenwich and visited the Trafalgar over many years, we thought an ideal location for our first time visitors. Our meal order was partly seafood linguine, unfortunately mussels were off the menu and very little seafood conten twas apparent. Most dissapointing. Fish ,chips and bangers O.K. They enjoyed the sweets and the Tavern itself. We found the service good but very slow.

Great location, good menu but food quality was poor. My family and I had a Sunday roast. Unfortunately the meat was bland and the roasts&yorkshires had quite obviously been cooked hours before our arrival and had been warmed up for our (full priced) meal. Very disappointed. Perhaps a better experience for a sunday roast would be to arrive around 12/1...? We arrived at 4ish. Lovely wine menu and the best view, real shame about the food.

We had a lovely meal overlooking the river at a window table. The food was good, as was the service, and all at a reasonable price.

Fantastic place location and setting. By the river at one of my favourite spots in London Greenwich. British tradition for more intellectual tourists and visitors

Perfect location for a long boozey lunch with an old friend - table for 2 in the bay window overlooking the river and in the shade, with refreshing "sea" breezes much welcomed during this hot spell! Food was good, if not the best ever, and the service charming.

Great food and good service waitress very helpful would recommend to friends and family. Not the biggest of menus but what they do they do well.

Service was terrible, actually worse than that even. Waited for our food over an hour and drinks for a good half hour. The whole place was a shambles and despite having ended up not paying for the food I would never return there. Their food is average and you can get the same quality anywhere with far better service.

Waited over an hour for food. Nobody came to see us after the order. I asked one manager to check on our food and he never came back. Food was ok but service terrible

It was very noisy and there was an hour wait for food. The food was OK but not worth the money or the wait

It was really nice and the view is spectacular :) I will definitely recommend and return over and over again Thank you and all the best :)

The food was very good, unfortunately the starter and main were served at the same time which was bizarre. The process of having to order everything at the bar was slow , cumbersome and bordered on being rude. One main course and one wine was not avaiable - not a good look. Having made a booking no one seemed the least bit interested when we arrived except a very helpful waitress who did her best for us on being told it was our 50th wedding anniversary this tear and our Reception 50 years ago was at the Trafalgar Tavern. It is ridiculous to have to queue for 10-12 minutes to place an order and to have to do that several times for each order. If you continue to treat the paying public like this you do not deserve to be in business.

We were unimpressed with the food, the service, the tidiness, and the quality. I feel like this place could be more professional and organized. It feel more like a college bar watering hole.

I had the most lovely Sunday lunch with an amazing window seat , perfect food and perfect setting . I'll definitely be going back soon

Beautiful pub for the summer. Great on hot days as you can sit by the river

Booked a table and there were no tables! We came to the grandparents and found there was no place we could sit. We then had to find somewhere else.

Food was OK; servers were pleasant and friendly. The guy behind the bar should be asked to stop dropping bottles into the waste bin; and the coffee machine should be moved out of the dining area - they both add to the already high level of noise.

Food was overpriced for what it was - we have have had better in other pubs around London. We sat in the bar area at a nice window table as it was a hot Saturday lunch but the bar staff allowed 3 mothers with 4 children and 1 screaming baby into the bar area - not sure what the law is on this but I will find out and look to contact Trafalgar Tavern - much to the annoyance and upset of all the patrons in the bar at that time. One patron went to the particular person and asked them to keep their child quiet - but a bar area with young children is not acceptable. We did not stay for drinks or coffee or desserts and others also left when we did - very poor management on this occasion - I will never visit again and have enjoyed some nice meals in the past here.

The trafalger is having renovations nothing about this online...we had to move tables as drilling so loud. However we managed to get a great table outside...food was good however service is very slow...hope this is just a transitional period as love this place!

I booked on strength of two previous visits which were great. This time I booked a table for 8 at 6pm, had two 40” tv screens blaring out the polish World Cup match at maximum volume and indifferent staff. I had to stand queue several times at the bar for service while dinner went cold..... words fail me to describe the overall experience.

We dined there on last Friday night and the entree's and mains all were served together, the mains were taken back and re-heated on serving. The pasta was dry and the chicken kebabs dry. The bar staff were less than helpful and the whole atmosphere of the dining experience was awful. We felt as if we were a nuisance rather than being relaxed with good food and service. Probably won't go back.

Booked a table for 2pm, sat down at 2:30. We were not in the restaurant as it was being redecorated and the main bar area was very noisy. Food was mediocre and took a long time; we had our main course at 3:40 which was disappointing as we had made a booking for 2pm.

We love it there. Great food, great service and a superlative position by the river. Always our first choice in Greenwich. Great with children too.

Excellent food. However, when we arrived they didn't have any table for us (even if we were in time). We ended up in a tiny table!

The food was good (we sampled two of the Sunday roasts, lamb and pork) and the views were great. Apparently a new restaurant will be opening at The Trafalgar soon but we eat im the main bar which was certainly lively - if a little noisy! We'd be happy to eat there again, it's a lovely location.

Good starters and mains but slow service and dessert order was completely wrong. Good drink selection but expecting more of a restaurant feel for the prices on the menu

We arrived for our booked table at 12.30 - we were then told they couldn't serve lunch for two hours because decorators were there. Apparently the Manager was supposed to call us!
