The Royal Oak in Southwark

Probably the best pub in London. Relatively unspoilt serving some of the best kept Harvey's ales you're likely to find. Great pub grub too!

The Royal Oak is a must visit pub. A real gem in the heart of Borough. Very well preserved victorian style pub with a good selection of Harvey's beers and delicious traditional English pub food.

Traditional two-bar atmospheric pub with friendly staff and a great range of beers mostly from Harvey's Brewery in Sussex. Limited menu but the food served is good including excellent Sunday roasts. Visited here numerous times - it is consistently good. Located in Tabard Street a quiet side road near Borough tube. Love it!

Excellent London pub a short walk off the main road. Central bar serving excellent Harvey's beer to the front and back seating areas. I learnt to drink on Harvey's so great find for me.

A very nice pub with great real ale on tap .. If I’d known before I visitedI would have have the Sunday roast , it looked& smelt divine ..

Visited today for the first time and will certainly be back. It's a no nonsense pub that serves great beer and excellent food. I absolutely detest the endless array of revolting IPA's and craft lagers that have taken over so many pubs in the last few years. None of that rubbish here - I tried the dark Mild and black stout and both were excellent. I can also recommend the steak and ale pie which was full of tender meat in a rich gravy.

Food from fresh produce. Well presented and really tasty. Local brew of beer also very tasty. Friendly staff and customers. Great experience for a proper traditional British Sunday roast. We'll worth a visit.

There are two things that really stood out to me: the staff know how to look after their beer and they know how to look after their customers.Good selection of ales, and all of the staff were more than happy to help.Nice mix of customers and a very relaxed vibe. Thoroughly recommend.

Came in here last in Jan 2020 when I was walking around trying to find a reasonably priced real ale pub that was not showing the football match that was on at the time. Ended up having an amazing meal and trying some decent beers.Fast forward to July 2021, just got a new job at guys hospital and so decided to make bypass all the pubs in London Bridge and make a beeline here.I did not eat here tonight but the food looked just good as my last visit, the beers are kept extremely well, the bar staff are very knowledgeable and friendly and the price is the same as I paid previously. Not to mention the beers are very local heading up from Hove.Tables are socially distanced and there is hand sanitiser on the table. When a customer leaves their table the staff come and sanitise the table and I found the toilets very clean. I would definitely recommend even though a change of staff. The standards of this brewary company are very high

Another excellent pub you wished you found years ago! Small, late Victorian pub on a corner spot , 3 mins from Borough tube station. Two separate rooms with the bar in the middle. On my visit on. Thursday evening around 8 o’clock, a nice , quiet crowd sitting with their drinks, some eating, one at the bar. Beers on draft are mostly from the Harvey brewery of Lewes. My dark ale was a winner! I didn’t have any food, but the people who were eating seemed to be well catered for.
