About King's Arms

Traditional Victorian pub offering British cuisine and a changing selection of beers.

A popular, Grade II listed, single-room pub with a traditional and comfortable interior, situated just off the busy Borough High Street, an easily missed side turning so you will need to be vigilant. The striking external plaque above the entrance originally stood at the southern end of Old London Bridge and was rescued when all the buildings on the bridge were demolished in the mid-18th century. Five cask beers are usually available and traditional, mainly British, meals are served lunchtimes daily and evenings Monday-Saturday. A first floor function room is available for hire.

There is a minimum card payment value of £5 here.

    Food was good, and drinks as well. Nice and friendly staff. We ordered chicken burger 🍔 and sausage mashed potatoes 🥔 😋 with wings and pork belly. Everything was tasty and delicious 😋

    A great place, The Kings Arms, just off Borough High Street is a pub serving a variety of cask and keg beers, all perfectly kept. Wonderful people behind the bar offering excellent service. A lovely place for a beer on a great day!

    Dane and his staff were excellent. The Sunday Roast and other food and drinks were fantastic. This was a very memorable experience for me and my family. I highly recommend visiting the Kings Arms pub if you are in London.

    Great pub, has changed a lot since my last visit. Good cask ales.

    A quaint local pub, the service and atmosphere were great. We went 1 hour before the kitchen closed and the food was a bit slow to come out. My bf didn't like his white wine spritzer or my fish cake, though the salad was nice, and he did like his beer-battered fish and the chips were nice and crispy. I was expecting the stick toffee pudding to be sticky but it wasn't, so that was a bit disappointing, but the custard sauce it came with was fantastic and cut the sweetness beautifully.
