Splendid 400 yr old pub with a jetty over the Thames, great atmosphere, real ales, cheeses & a lovely menu. Oh and the Mayflower set sail from here, no biggie.
400 years later and we're still pretending to be a boat😅 Or at least 3 times a month when the tide is high 🌊 Pssst you can a even get pirate if you ask nicely🏴☠️

We can now say it out loud: WE HAVE REOPENED! It felt good to be back on our feet and see familiar and new faces around💛
Please do book a table if you want to come over as we have limited space & sittings, and we are now a 'table service only' pub.
2020 will mark the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower sailing from Plymouth, England, to Plymouth, America⛵ We're part of the

Anne, Mayflower matriarch & international woman has made homes for her family in many countries. Two places mean the most to her, Liverpool & Rotherhithe. Now in her mid-80s, Anne is still working, taking bookings and keeping our pub shipshape

Monday Mayflower mood is Mighty. In 1944, the people of Bermondsey raised £800,000 during Wings for Victory Week and christened a U.S. bomber 'Rotherhithe's Revenge'. Southwark lost nearly 2,000 residents in WW2, and 1000s of homes. Thanks to

Rotherhithe as a pilgrim father smoking a clay pipe with his master's face on it & he's made it into a beer badge for Salty Dog Pale Ale. Very good it is too.
Monday morning Mayflower mood is Meditative. For generations our Snug has been a place of celebration, somewhere to put the world to rights, a secret place to whisper sweet nothings, the scene of many a long lunch, or just somewhere to sip an ale in solitude
AN UPDATE✨
We are incredibly mindful of keeping up our usual excellent hygiene practices whilst supporting our local community.
Feel free to call and collect for most of our menu items. We will hopefully be on Deliveroo soon too!
Look after yourselves and each other💛
Something to fill your sails and breeze into the weekend Shipmates!
