The Bishop in Southwark

Great pub, lively and fun. We also managed to get good seats to watch the rugby on their large projector screen!

I just want to preface this by saying most of the staff here are absolutely lovely and a credit to The Bishop.Being the closest pub to my house, me and my partner came here regularly, at least once a week. However, Now we won’t be coming back at all.I came in a week or so ago to be greeted with the rudest staff member I have ever encountered, an oldish gentleman with long hair tied up in a bun. I asked him for a Bloody Mary, he looked at me blankly and just said “no”. I chuckled as I thought he was having a laugh, then he proceeds to tell me that he simply “can’t be arsed” to make that and that I should just order a beer. Puzzled, I shake it off and ask for a Guinness instead. He pours the drink, and decides, while he slides it over to me, to ID me- which as any bartender worth their salt knows is a question you’d ask before taking a drink request and pouring it. I produce my ID and he hands me my drink. The vibe was completely unprofessional, as if he was letting some personal prejudice get in the way of him doing his job.I go up to the bar about 15 minutes later and a youngish lad takes my request for a Bloody Mary with a smile, no questions asked.Fast forward to today, I thought I’d go in for Sunday lunch. Now, the opening hour listed for Sunday is midday, however I arrived at 12:20 with the front entrance locked. I peer in and see this same long haired man, who simply glares at me through the glass and walks off.A truly remarkable combination of unprofessional service, failing to open on time, and refusing to make a drink because he “can’t be arsed”.

Moved next door to the Bishop 6 months ago and now the Bishop feels like a second living room. Staff are amazing and have now become good friends. Big thank you to Tarek and team for making us feel so welcome.

We're regulars here as we love that we can bring our doggo and not worry about him at home, we've been served by charley a few times and she always makes sure he is well watered as well as us! Decent food and my favourite mango cider occasuonally in the summer as well.

10/10. The vegan burger was the best I have ever had. My partner demolished his wings. The barman was incredibly friendly and accomodating. Will be returning soon & often!

Lovely atmosphere. Amazing vegan option for Sunday roast. Service was great even though it was very crowded. Would definitely come back again!

Great pub with wholesome food including a good kids menu. Service really fantastic with exceptionally friendly staff.

Absolutely marvelous :) had wonderful time on the terrace! Staff was very nice. Enjoyed lovely vegan burger and chips. While my friend struggled to finish a massive fish and chips dish :) Dog friendly too which is big plus :)

Service amazing! The manager is incredible, his hair is electric!!! They are dog friendly - just look at these beautiful boys 😍 well priced, great quality - definitely will be coming back every Monday 🤙🏻

Great pub for a meal and drink with friends. They have a heated beer garden at the back to allow for household mixing (although even with the heaters it is still cold, so wear layers!).I had the festive turkey burger which was delicious. The bombolone filled doughnuts were decent but not sure i would order again as they are a bit plain.Service was great considering we were hidden out back; a waiter regularly came to check if we needed to order more drinks.
