It was delicious. My friend had the full English which looked absolutely awesome. Lovely coffee, friendly staff delightful interior. I would go back in a heartbeat Thankyou! Xxx”

“First time visiting The Rabbit Hole and it was a great experience. The pub is huge with a lovely big garden. The decor and furniture inside and out is great! The food was presented well and tasted good. I will definitely be visiting again.”

“Titanic Plum porter. Superb. Great staff and fog friendly. Didn't want to leave !!!”

“Lovely pub on the west end lane. Food is always great and they have their own selection of draft beers. The lady who took our reservation last time was amazing and the atmosphere is always cosy and relaxed. Big pro: dogs are allowed inside. Definitely recommend”

“Great little pub, went for Monday night quizz, very well organised.Brilliant halloween decorations.”

“The perfect pub. It’s hidden on an empty street. The facade is charming and inviting. Inside, the noise is bustling, spaces are cramped yet you can find your own place into which to nestle. The drink menu is extensive although when in traditional pubs I lean heavy towards draft beer. The food menu is interesting - I ordered the steak & ale pie. It was very good. I loved the au jus. This place has loads of personality.”

“Wow 1st visit to this gorgeous tucked away little pub, warmest welcome, great friendly customers, deffo be back. One of the mist delicious sauvignon blanc / Patterson. THANK YOU”

“This is my favourite pub in london. Best mix of great quality beer and traditional london pub.”

“Went there to celebrate my birthday with my family. What a lovely evening. Food was great, lovely wine(Viognier) and the service was excellent. The manager there is fantastic, he really looked after us and I must say I cannot praise him enough. That is what service should be like in a world where a lot of businesses have taken their eye off the ball regarding looking after the customer. Thank you again for a lovely evening.”

“Had lunch in the Albion today great food lovely pub Trish was so personable new pub on my map”

“Went to this pub on a rugby day it was very busy, but it had great atmosphere. The bar staff were very quick and efficient and used to deal with all this well. We stayed in the little court yard garden at the back as we had someone who likes to vape. The garden can be accessed directly via a side alley very useful for disabled customers. A good pub, busy but lots of fun.”

“Came here for Sunday roast. We came a bit late in the day so the beef roast ran out. The pork roast was amazing. Booked in advance and got a good table inside.”

“Fabulous service and food . Great for a Sunday Roast. The Two Ladies serving were top class.”

“I used to live here back in the 70s /80s my grandfather was the landlord so my review was always going to be biased . First time back in nearly 40 years with my kids. The pub hasn't changed that much. Great trip down memory lane.”

“We have been regular customers 4 years ago, but because of bad management and rude attitude, we stop visiting The old Sergeant. This Sunday we accidentally pop up for a beer and we had a chance to try one of the best Sunday roast. I'm quite picky regarding the food and I have been nicely surprised but the new owners, friendly staff and delicious food. I would recommend it again.”

“Brilliant pub. The atmosphere is great and the location is perfect. The interior design and unique features to the pub is what stands out most to me, and it is all topped off by friendly, welcoming staff. Definitely worth a visit!”

“Lovely pub, great value drinks and friendly staff, great for watching thw footy as well”

“Fantastic food, really friendly and efficient service and a really great atmosphere in the pub. Definitely the best pub food I've had in Blackheath so far, every dish was delicious and the menu had a really nice variety and more on trend dishes not just the standard pub classics. Prices were a bit higher than what I've paid for this type of food at other pubs in London, but the quality of cooking is a lot better here as well as better quality ingredients.”

“Solid pub with an eclectic music scene. Staff are outstanding.”

“Best pint of Guinness for miles £4.50 cheaper than cheap nice pleasant bar lady shiela friendly pub & people not been here for years as I'm a travelling publican reopening pubs across the county glad the Alma hasn't changed keep it up!!.. Pete..”

“Great food and atmosphere. The garden is beautiful in summer. Staff are fantastic. I've been here many times and am a big fan!”

“Enjoyed our first Sunday roast here since arriving in England from the US. I thought it was great. Veggies were great. Meat was tender. Gravy had great flavor. The staff is very nice and we loved the atmosphere”

“Genuine real pub. Nothing fancy, but good beers and friendly atmosphere.”

“Always have a good time here. Live acts are usually good. I haven't seen a bad one yet. The Iron Horse is a very friendly, welcoming pub.”

“What a great find during lockdown...perfect coffee, delivered to you door. Will use these guys again!”

“Amazing place with great staff and service. Been coming here every week for a year and have always been satisfied. It's warm and cozy inside at winter and have big backyards for summer dinners with view to clean and fresh water. Menu here is big with a reasonable prices. we do not drink alcohol, but there is a wide range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks to order. Only one thing you need to be aware that at evening/night after dusk you may see some animals walking around, they are not harmful, but may scare someone. recommend to visit!”

“Fantastic food, panuzzo is always spot on and the new risotto is a refreshing change to normal takeaway food. Very fast delivery”

“Another great Wetherspoon's pub. Went in there for Fish and Chips on Friday, ordered the food and drinks from their Mobile app, saves queuing at the bar. Both the drinks and food came very quickly, and I must say the food and drinks are exceptional value for money, with the prices they charge you'd expect the food to be rubbish, it's not. The service was great as were the staff. Also the toilets were very clean and modern, I think that is always nice to know. I highly recommed this pub.
