Mayflower, Rotherhithe
The Mayflower is one of the oldest pubs on the river Thames and is located in Rotherhithe Village just two minutes from Rotherhithe Station. The bar is classically warm and cozy with French doors opening out onto a deck over the Thames.
The Mayflower pub is a hidden gem in the heart of Rotherhithe, London. Dating back to 1620, the Mayflower appeared suddenly along the Thames path, its white and black-timbered frontage set with diamond-leaded windows positively oozes tradition. Inside, beyond the counter, the small main bar area with cozy alcoves, open fire leads to a deck outside at the rear.
There's no arguing with its charms. Dark timber beams, dangling mugs, low ceilings and a forest of plants make it hard to describe without slipping in the word 'cosy'. The first floor dining room is well known for good food at good value, and you're unlikely to get a table unless you've booked. The food menu offers delicious, classic British dishes using local and fresh ingredients and is complemented by a great range of well-kept traditional ales, craft beers, local gins and fine wines. The plum seats are out on the riverside decking beneath the star-spangled banner. But beware. At high tide, people in the front row will get wet. Be sure to catch the sunset and try the best fish and chips in London!
