Nice looking pub. The food is nice and quick. The prices…read moreare good, just like pretty much every other Wetherspoon's Bad points - Short staffed! The girl who was serving had to manage the whole pub on her own. You could tell she was flustered and didn't have time for anyone. I don't blame her as it was a busy afternoon. Dirty glasses, we had a cocktail pitcher and both glasses had lipstick on them. The replacements weren't much better and we had to clean them with a napkin. Good points - The food and drinks came out fast! The pub itself has that old school Wetherspoons look which is nice and has plenty of history about the building and surrounding area dotted around the pub which is a nice touch. *Bonus* Can you spot the clip i attached to my girlfriends cardigan, she had that on for hours without noticing.

The Surrey Docks is part of the Wetherspoons group and definitely has that typical Wetherspoon…read morevibe. It is a large pub and a little rough around the edges. There is an outside seating area which is usually occupied by groups of younger people who have usually drank one too many cheap pints! The inside isn't too much better but it is insanely cheap to drink and eat here. I have to admit, I'm actually quite a fan of Wetherspoons pub grub as the portions are decent and very good value. The same applies here and I sampled the burger and chips which was very tasty and for around £5, I couldn't have asked for better. The bar staff are also friendly and definitely have their work cut out! I wouldn't really come here for a nice evening drink but it is fine as a stop point or if you are strapped for cash and need a good meal!

The Mayflower is another one of the pubs we booked dinner reservations for in advance while on our…read morevacation in London. While you can hang out in the crowd and grab a pint easily without that, if you want to dine in the quieter dining area with views of the water you may want to do so as well. Especially if you want the elbow room to enjoy such great food. The Mayflower is named after the famous ship carrying the early American settlers, and the church tied to this voyage is steps away where apparently an unmarked grave hosts the resting spot of the captain of that ship. It's candlelit and kind of romantic on the top floor with great views. For food, my wife had the chicken pie and I had the special of the day, lamb stew with housemade potato salad. It was warm, flavorful and delicious, sentiments my wife shared on the pot pie. We split an order of mac and cheese, and it was also delicious. Such great comfort food. I had a small scotch pour and an ale, my wife a glass of wine. I had a small port to pair with the sticky toffee pudding at the end which was terrific. My wife swears by Gordon Ramsey's recipe of the same but this one was hard to beat IMO.

I am not going to lie - The Farriers Arms is a pretty awful pub. Small, dingy, run down and a…read morelittle unhygienic looking for my liking. Don't get me wrong, I'm not snobby and I really like little undiscovered pubs which honestly represent London, but this one just simply isn't very nice. There are probably a handful of locals who spend most of their time here and so when someone new walks in, you immediately feel all beady eyes upon you. The staff didn't do a great job of making my friend and I feel particularly welcome and I was tempted to just walk out but didn't want to appear rude which is quite ironic considering they probably would have preferred us to leave. The toilets aren't very clean and I found the bar staff (or the one member of staff) to be quite unfriendly. I'm sure those six locals like it here, but I wouldn't brave it if I were you.

That's usually not a problem in London at most places, but I was wrong. Before getting a drink I decided to go to the toilet. As I was looking for it, an old waitress started yelling at me loudly. She was asking me what I wanted. When I told her I wanted to go to the loo she said, "Have you asked me?" I asked her politely if there was a problem, "NO, I just like to be asked by you folks" was her reply! I left the pub without using the toilet or getting a drink, feeling unwelcome and humiliated for the first time since I have been here. Terrible people and horrible pub. Avoid at all costs.

There is plenty of seating, prices are good, and it's got a really great atmosphere. Clearly family-friendly for meals, it was nice to be in a place that was welcoming and warm enough for parents with kids to want to have their weekend dinner there. Additionally, the ladies toilets were pristine - and any pub that can boast that qualification rates highly in my book!

Actually, this pub is probably not the best pub to visit for a Monopoly Board pub crawl since it is…read morequite a way down Old Kent Road (and even though, like most of South London, it is really only accessible by bus). It is one of those pubs that are really only frequented by the locals, but the bar staff are pretty cool, and it is reasonably large. They even have a beer garden out the back, but like many of the beer gardens that you see in London this one is mainly for the smokers as opposed to being an outdoor experience. Still the pub does have a lot of charm about it, even if there isn't a huge selection of beers on tap (though I usually only drink Stella when I'm in England, though I had been drinking a few of the ales this time). As I mentioned, it is a bit of a hike to get to, but it was a decent pub nonetheless.

The sourdough bread was really tasty. The 3 of us finished up two pizzas rather quickly. My daughter and husband enjoyed one of their dipping sauces which they used on the particularly tasty crusts. We have a lot of sourdough pizza places back home in Los Angeles but this one is quite tasty. We would return if we lived here but be warned this location is located on the outskirts of Borough Market and it is really busy. We were seated quickly, service is a tad slow but I find that all over London (busy holiday season me thinks) so I ordered my two drinks upfront as I wasn't sure I'd be able to get another after the food arrived which has been my experience at other places.
