We were a group of 9 ladies who booked for lunch, Royal London Hospital nurse mini get together. Our waiter was Joe and he looked after us very well. Food and service good and we had a lovely time. Thanks Joe for looking after us so well. sure we will be back again.

Today me and my mate came in for a quiet drink and I have to say we really enjoyed it. The service was very good the guy that served us was very nice and also very helpful. The only down side I would say is the costs for a pint but that’s what’s to be expected in London😂 would definitely come back when I get the chance!

Excellent pub, top notch food.
Decent enough visited on a Monday evening, went back again on the Wednesday to try the other thing I liked the look of on the menu.
Both were excellent.
Also, they know how to serve a decent pint of ale.

It's always thriving in here. I always feel lucky to get a table. It's very familiar though, and nothing spectacular as far as traditional London pubs go.
It's not overly expensive, and the service is okay. There's a mixture of attitudes among staff members, some pleasantly doing their best, and others who couldn't care less. The result is uneven and I'm never quite sure whether I'm gonna get a good drink, a bad drink, or something entirely different to what I asked for.

The Woodin's Shades in London is a cozy blend of traditional pub charm and modern comfort. With a wide array of beers and a hearty British menu, it's a nod to classic English hospitality. The ambiance is lively, with jovial crowds adding to the appeal. Minor waits during peak hours, but the friendly staff and warm interiors make it a worthy visit for anyone seeking a quintessential British pub experience.

Nice little pub with great service! We popped in for a drink and quick bite before more exploring on our visit. Love the option for upstairs or downstairs areas with bartenders in both sections. We chose a cozy little corner upstairs. Katarzyna was an absolute delight and couldn't ask for better service. She even explained the halloumi fries to us and we had to try. So glad we did! Great recommendation! It's my new favorite starter! I also got the Nourish bowl, a salad with grains, seeds, lettuce and a houmous vinegarette dressing.

Grand tavern well rooted in its heritage with well preserved features. Large space, large long bar with heritage and a broad selection on tap. Loved in vintage feel. A great place for friend chatting and London street drinking. Music could be better spread but I imagine this is booming with big sports events on the big screens.
