  With over 800 years of history, fantastic meals, a wonderfully welcoming team, and an incredibly spacious interior, Anchor Bankside is one of our favorite pubs in London. We’ve had many amazing memories here - enjoying a pint outside and the delicious Sunday Roast! The Sirloin of Beef Sunday Roast is outstanding. The cheesy cauliflower is delicious. The gravy is legendary. It’s practically its own food group. We highly recommend visiting when they open on Sundays (at 11am) since there is a ton of space and 0 crowds. Thank you to the amazing team at Anchor Bankside! The pub is beautiful and…

  Checked out the Anchor Bankside today while exploring South Bank and Borough Market! It was definitely a nice pit stop! The service here was good and the staff was really nice! The food was good, we tried the Cheese Toastie and the Chicken-Bacon Sandwich, and enjoyed both!

  Nice pub with friendly staff. Located near to the Tate modern and Shakespeare's globe. They have a good selection of beers, wine and spirits.

The awful smell before you enter them is not great and the toilet I had to use the lock was broken

  Woefully understaffed. Food was AMAZING! But was a real hassle to get it. Ordered at the bar, and was told the table we were on was reserved (no sign) and they couldn’t process the order until we found one that wasn’t (no sign…) so after going up two floors we found a staff member who was like “yeah, just anywhere without a reserved sign” 🤦‍♀️ Anyway, finally found another table and tried to order but there was no table number. Wandered around the very busy place just trying to find one with a number and hoping that no reserved sign actually meant it wasn’t reserved. Finally found one and…

  We had dinner at the Anchor Bankside Pub during our visit to London this summer. The food was typical English pub fair, and I was surprised that there was no waiter / waitress to serve our table, rather after being seated and deciding what we wanted we had to leave our table and go downstairs to place our order with the bar. That said the staff were friendly and our meals were brought to us at our table a short while later. We were fortunate enough to be able to watch England win the semi-final match, so the pub had an exciting energy! All in all it was a memorable experience.
