The Woolpack (Bermondsey)

• It doesn't surprise you that all the bars and restaurants are packed to the brim with patrons spilling out the doors
• The Woolpack stands out as the one and only place that is jammed with folks yearning for a table on the quietest of days
• The restaurant (looks more like a tavern) is nothing fancy
• They do have a pretty outdoor garden are that you can sit at when the weather Gods are being kind
• The daily specials are displayed on a chalkboard above the bar that catch your fancy
• Almost immediately you are distracted by the big cauldron that certainly has to contain either soup or mulled wine
• I ordered that day's special salmon in lemon butter sauce on a bed of mash with grilled carrots that are the BEST I've had in a while
• Everything was so perfectly cooked and made for a hearty
• Complemented with the mulled wine that was just the right amount of spice
• I was more than content with the salmon
• The real selling point here is the room upstairs for private parties that doesn't charge you a fortune to hire
• I thought it was a bit too pricey for a student
• All round good pub with beer garden
• The food was nice but generic pub food there are definitely better options around but the Woolpack does the job and is one of the only local places
• Just met a friend here who was working local
• The Woolpack on Bermondsey Street is around a ten fifteen minute walk from London Bridge tube and railway stations as well as Borough High Street
• Whitewashed garden is minimal and spacious
• Cosy pub which was really full when we got there
• We both had the fish and chips which was enormous and really good
• Also the Ginger Beer which is not to sweet
• Pints of neck oil are always perfect
• Great outdoor space at the back with covered areas too and fantastic dog friendly facilities such as treat dispenser and water bowls and fountains
• Usually come here for a Sunday roast They do an Ultimate roast which is a little bit of everything
• It's got a great beer garden with an outside bar which is a major sun trap
• Breakfasts are made with fresh ingredients
• Saturday mornings are extremely busy
