    Not very many beers on tap. It doesn't have the greatest atmosphere either. We were there so we could watch the football but the screens are small and lots of people were in the way. And they stopped doing food by half time (by about 9pm). At least it didn't take too long to be served.

    Staff harassing people outside their garden. I haven't even touched their property and waiting 50 cm away, I asked where's their property line and the guy who keep harassing people showed me an imaginary line. I will keep reviewing this place in other platforms as well.

    a nice little place hidden away from the hectic city road and traffic, most times its quiet and spacious but with company xmas parties its very packed. outside sitting area is quite large with lots of heaters. service was quick as they had quite a few people behind the bar.

    Great location and the outdoor seating was just perfect on the sunny day when we were there. Service was very pleasant and polite and along with the reasonable prices makes this a a great venue. Ideal for anyone; group's, couples etc.

    I came here recently for the first and only time so far. After a search for a place to watch the football, the ad on the website sounded great. The place is nice, well decorated, nice bar area and nice seating with an open area outside shared with other venues. There wasn't a great range of beers/lagers and there own brew, which I tried, was not one of the best. Hadn't tried the food, but didn't look like much for the price and the staff seemed quite reserved and not as well trained as some places. An OK place.

    Amazing make-over since my last visit on June 18th. Amazing decor, great modern furniture, tables, chairs, stools etc. Exterior furniture also completely changed, all new wooden tables and chairs. Pleased to say that what hasn't changed at all is the excellant service provided by the bar staff. Great venue for an after work couple of beers or a night out with the boys/girls. Great cocktail menu also available.

    The food is exquisite, dishes well served and excellent service, Chef Marco is the Top. If you pass through Borough you must go there. Recommended

    Rude and slow service. We ordered two sandwiches and waited more than 40 minutes! beyond that, the sandwiches were small with cheap bread. i think that easily you can find nicer places to watch a football match and eat something.

    Very amazing staff members. A cool place to enjoy sports and drinks.

    Ok place but they don't sell cocktails as advertised

  • 3/5 Kyrylo B. 2 years ago on Google • 20 reviews
    The place has great potential! Just a few points that could make it better. I came today to watch football with my friend but the TV quality was bad. The screen was blurry like watching a 360p football stream online. The other thing was the beef burger. I paid 15 quid for a burger with chips. I had to pay extra to add cheese and fries portion was far from average in size. The patty was thick but tasteless inside. I suspect the patty was frozen. For 15 quid they could at least make their own. Overall the space is large which is great to come with friends and just drink. However, I believe the selection of drinks could be expanded. A solid 3 star.

    Somewhere between a bar and a pub (try the George opposite for a more traditional experience!) TVs visible everywhere - usually showing whatever sport is currently on. Lovely outdoor courtyard. Decent food and no problems taking a well behaved dog in.

    Had not been to the Heeltap for some time but was pleased to see the place still efficiently run by the manager Jeff, who was extremely polite and helpful, always smiling and focusing on customers' needs. A quiet haven in the busy London Bridge area - and yes I will return as often as I can. Jeff -I salute you and your Team. Peter

    This is a cosy little bar. On entrance the door person asked us to check in on the NHS app (great covid security) then when I went to the gents I was reminded to put my mask up (great covid security). However, we ordered fries - the same person who was on the door and asking me to put my mask on to go to the gents did as follows : took my fries to the wrong table - allowed that table to nibble on MY fries, realised his mistake and then came to me with the said fries 😤 (where was the covid security)

    Had great night with friends Saturday, one of the staff called jeff was really nice and accommodating, he sorted us a nice table to watch the football and gave us great service.

  • 2/5 Jack W. 2 years ago on Google
    Bar staff are friendly enough. The big fat bloke that delivers drinks/acts as bouncer/struggles to walk is rude and un helpful...he ruins the place

  • 3/5 Jean C. 2 years ago on Google
    Love the payment method. You can pay with your PayPal account. Staff helpful and very patient

  • 2/5 janey c. 2 years ago on Google • 2 reviews
    £11.80 for a large glass of wine!!! Unpleasant odour if sitting near gents toilets. Cannot comment on food as did not eat there but would expect better surroundings for price of drinks. Staff no complaints.
