  “If you are melting away in the sun, right opposite the iconic Borough Market, Dine with Aircon @ level 2 in this heatwave feels like paradise, The Chicken Kyiv and a pint of Seventh Step Lager is a must-have pairing ! Savory and hits the spot ! Chorizo Scotch Egg and Sticky Toffee Pudding is great too ! Highly recommend !!”

  “One of the few traditional 'Early Houses' in London, a great spot to drink in the morning or early afternoon after an early slot at work. Magdi behind the ramp has been A-class and knows his clientele well, absolutely a spot well worth visiting!”

  “Great pub in the heart of Brough Market at London Bridge, it has a great vibe on market days and in the summer where you can enjoy the outdoor space directly on the market square. On this occasion i was served by Rayvin a wonderful polite young man and dispite how busy the bar was he still took the time to say hi and did not make me feel rushed. Look out for the pie of the day, they are delicious.”

  “Came in for a pint of Harvey's as,I learnt that this pub is one of the few that serves this excellent ale. Unfortunately it tasted of dish water. Maybe it doesn't travel well or the pipe needs cleaning. Not going back in afraid”

  “Sunday roast at The Market Porter in Borough Market. Proper pub style roast, generous portions and everything tasted really well balanced. Beef was nicely pink and tender, pork belly was super juicy with good flavour. Roast potatoes were crispy, Yorkshire pudding was huge and the gravy was rich. Nothing fancy just a really solid classic Sunday roast in a lively pub atmosphere. Great spot if you’re around Borough Market and craving a traditional roast.”

  “With my son before we head over to the O2 for a gig…thought we’d check this pub out for a bite to eat and glad we did. Really friendly, relaxed pub, food was well cooked & well presented, a great selection of ales, beer, wine & gin, and attentive but not overly so service. I had the fish & chips & my son had the burger. Both were tasty & filling. Very reasonably priced and a nice feeling in our hearts. Great job 🤓”
