The Boot and Flogger in Southwark

Beautiful bar and fantastic wine. Highly recommend!

Nice little old, historic pub! More suited to diners nowadays though! Bottle beer only! Those that like a pint should probably avoid!

Enjoyed good food and had excellent service. Pity they don't serve Davey's Old Wallop draught beer though

I absolutely love this place. The food is fantastic and the service so warm. Great selection of wines.

The Boot & Flogger had the best food, best service (Francesco is AWESOME!!) best ambiance, and amazing wines. Can't say enough great things about the place or staff. We found ourselves there again and again. Would've given 10 stars if possible!

Great staff and a wonderful historic pub. But the quality of the food doesn’t quite live up to the price. I would recommend you go, but it’s quite pricey.

We went here last night and had a wonderful time!It's historic; even though this Davy's has been here just over 50 years there's been a food/tavern/inn type of establishment on the sight for almost a thousand years.The interior is really special; looks like it's not been updated since it began, so very authentic, and is extremely clean and cheerful throughout. There are lots of nooks and crannies and private rooms too. Very atmospheric, I was almost expecting Dickens or Dr Johnson and Boswell to arrive.Our waiter for the evening was perfect! Charming, knowledgeable, helpful and fast - he's worth the visit alone.The wines, as you'd expect at Davy's, were delicious and came in a wide price range, so nothing too scary.While the food was standard fish and chips, bangers and mash etc, it was all delicious and fairly priced.Well done Davy's - we can't wait to go back.

TLDR: Sexy, London-old-skool, upper cut establishment where those in the know meet to talk at length over excellently selected wines and quail eggs 🍷🥀I don't often give five stars... but this place is incredible. Excellent and attentive service... incredible wine selection... quiet, unknown, beautiful, class, quality, clean, comfortable and romantic... I just love this place. It's everything you want an old school London wine den to be without any pretentiousness. I'm a fan. The seafood was incredible. Everything I've ever eaten from here has been top class and quality. It's a date place. Huge outdoor/smoking area also. It looks like it's closed... its open. It's awesome.

Davy's wine bars are such an overlooked option for cool little places to go in London, any day or night of the week. The more I discover about them and the more of them I visit, the more I want to see the rest. This was number four (I think), so I'm please I've got a long way to go yet!This visit to the Boot & Flogger a couple of weeks ago was just another great example of why more people need to go to their nearest Davy's bar. The "Boot & Flogger", which I believe is their oldest and first in the collection, is a fantastic place near London Bridge. I'd say "little place", as it seems rather small and cosy at first glance. After I was given a tour however, I learned that it's not very little at all! With its myriad of hidden corridors, doors and staircases leading to different rooms and private spaces, this place almost feels like you could go back in time to before London was overcome with coffee shops and craft beer!! (Not that I dislike these things...!)Being a wine bar, these places naturally have fantastic wine lists. On this occasion though, we took our own wines, and enjoyed some very special and cracking wines. I did taste a rather unusual beer though, the "Curious Session IPA".For food, we had the salmon and mac and cheese to start. Both were superb, and just what was needed to kick off the weekend. The mains were fantastic too - we had a steak and the special, which just happened to be one of my favourite meals: good old fish and chips!The staff in every Davy's bar are fun, friendly and incredibly helpful, not to mention how clued up they are on their wine knowledge. Getting one of your bottles decanted here is never any problem at all, which makes a welcome change from a lot of places.Fantastic evening all told, and I'm just looking forward to the next evening of discovering a new Davy's bar!

ok. not the best place to eat. The steak was average, choco dessert awesome. But the starter, OMG, keep away.
