Mixed feelings about this place. Food was really good – delicious vegetarian nut roast with potato, carrot, celeriac, gravy and Yorkshire pud. Friend had two grazing dishes – mac n cheese and chip butty. Sry happy with food, however in 6 weeks in U.K. this was by far the most expensive drinks by far. For a basic large glass of house Pinot Grigio and a double JD and coke we paid 19.60. This was 4 more than the dearest we paid anywhere else (and we’ve tried a lot!). Not impressed. So thumbs up for the food but not for the booze
Met two Scottish friends, who were visiting Tate London, for lunch, at The Morpeth Arms, nearby. Ate in the Spy Room, overlooking The Thames. Excellent food…AND LOTS OF IT…MASSIVE AMMOUNTS and priced very fairly. Good ambience, not over crowded…I sensed some locals were there…ALWAYS a good sign. Excellent friendly and personable service by Andrew and his people. A great treat for my friends. Job done. Thank you!
On the way to the Tate Britain, my family and I realised that we would need some lunch, luckily right round the corner is the Morpeth Arms and were drawn in by their witty chalk board invitations. Located across the river from the headquarter of the SIS building, the Morpeth Arms really cashes in on the tourist’s and public’s hype and fascination with everything Bond and 00. The clear spy theme through out the pub isn’t particularly subtle but it is fun, for example we ate our lunch in ‘The Spy Room’, where there were binoculars next to the window and pictures of Sean Connery on the walls (not complaining). The atmosphere and deco was really the pub’s winning feature. The lunch itself really wasn’t that great. I had hoped for a proper pub sandwich, you know the ones I mean, sandwiches that are full to burst, delicious fillings crammed into chunky slices of crunchy bread that you can really sink your teeth into. The Morpeth Arms was a bit of a sadder story. My blt reminded me of a bacon sandwich that I would make to cure a hangover, the fillings clumsily put together, which then proceed to fall out. Also the bread seemed to be straight out of Hovis’s extra thick, nothing interesting, and I left my crusts. Also our chips on the side were a bit on the hard side. Overall, a nice pub, a pub with character and individualistic flair. But if you’re planning on visiting maybe just pop in for a drink, as the lunch sandwiches really weren’t anything to rave about, however I like to think the dinner would be a lot better, and maybe more their forte. Also, only pub I’ve ever been in with a live ghost camera.
Very nice pub. I have been to a few pubs in London and I think this is one of nicer pubs. Old fashioned and very well maintained. It is a block away from Tate Britain near the Vauxhall Bridge. I had some wine and sticky toffee pudding, which was perfect for a cold misty winter day in London.
