    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.

    There's something about this place that just feels so cozy and historic. This place was recommended…read moreby our tour guide after our tour finished so we all piled in here. The beer was good and so were our dishes- my wife got the roast and I got the fish and chips which were both exceptional! Service was quick and to the point.
