We say…

Sleek and contemporary, Borough Bar is just a minute from London Bridge Station making it one of SE1’s most convenient stop offs, perfect for after work drinks, pre-theatre dinners or post sight-seeing rests. Bang up to date design combines gleaming bare wood and comfortable leather with chrome bar fittings and light streaming through large windows. The main dining area is on a raised platform adjoining the main bar making it perfect for people watching. Simple modern dishes including sandwiches and salads for a light lunchtime treat or heartier fayre, including burgers and steaks plus delicious sharing platters.

Reviewer RG  -  gastronaut

A little too noisy for decent conversation and the menu is limited. I would suggest this place is better suited for a drinking rather than eating venue. Also there was an offer 2 glasses of wine and you get the entire bottle. Although we weren't made aware of this and had 5 glasses of wine and had to pay for them separately. Quite disappointing. The staff were friendly.

The staff in Borough Bar were very (but not too) attentive, and although the menu wasn't big, the food was very cheap but good. I would go back.

Un-fussy home cooking, great sausages & burgers! 2FOR1 on desserts is a bonus!
