About Three Stags
A thoughtful modern gastropub with a seasonal menu that uses carefully sourced, sustainable produce.
Situated directly opposite the Imperial War Museum, this pub was well known to Charlie Chaplin and his family. Indeed it was in this pub that Chaplin saw his father suffering from the advanced stages of dropsy, brought on by alcohol excess, which killed him at the age of 37. There is a small snug area called Chaplin’s Bar. This is something of a gastropub, with the emphasis on free range and ethically sourced products. Original cast iron pillars still survive in here, and there is a nice tiled splash around the bar counter. Became a freehouse in June 2023, offering three cask ales and up to 10 beers on tap, mainly from London breweries.

I enjoyed a fabulous lunch here. The staff were friendly, the meat pie delicious, and the regional ales, of course, magnificent!

Staff are attentive but relaxed. Atmosphere is the best part. It's a lovely building with good lighting and music in a nice location. Chips were a bit overdone but a nice place nonetheless.

Came here for a family lunch on a Saturday after war museum visit. Great selection of beers and craft ales which my husband loved. Really nice menu - we had selection of starters and fish & chips, burger and pie for mains which were delicious. Staff friendly and attentive even though it was very busy, and short wait for food. Would definitely come back!

This was a lovely find whilst waiting for a lecture at the IWM nearby. Great selection of beers, very friendly atmosphere with engaging and attentive staff. It was really nice having bar staff with a fantastic sense of humour. I didn't have food but what I could see on people's plates looked appetising. I will try to get back for another visit and next time stay longer.
