    I liked the ambiance, the under ground bar was a nice experience. The food tasted pretty good it didn't take to long to get after ordering. The one thing I didn't like was for a bar they had no non carbonated drinks. Just note if your eating inside you order at the bar. They have a confession booth which was cool to find. They have area to eat outside and little corner spots to eat and drink as well inside.

    Stumbled across this place after walking across Tower Bridge. The Minories was delightfully tucked under a railway viaduct which added to the already welcoming atmosphere. The food was very tasty and the staff we welcoming and friendly. I will definitely return for a few more pints and the mandatory fish and chips.

    Friendly staff. Burgers tasted great. Bottomless brunch is worth doing here. Really enjoyed it. They have big TV screens to watch sports as well. Cocktails were great... some of the beers tasted flat but other than that, pleasant experience

    Very nice venue in the bridge arches and good atmosphere. Interesting old church style "confession" stall! Shows sports events on multiple screens. A bit slow service, though there was a rugby game on. The "Sloppy Joe" burger was very tasty, totally recommend it, sweet potato chips also good! Garden is also nice when the weather is good as there are plenty of tables with some under cover with screens and heaters too. Have come to this pub on several occasions.

    Always a delight to be back here. Amazing interiors, great Beer garden, decently decorated for Halloween this visit and a good selection of drinks. The staff are very polite, although service tends to become a bit slow when they're close to 75% capacity. Nevertheless, would definitely recommend the place if you're on the lookout for a good pub experience.

    Sporty atmosphere, clean, and has ample seating. They have a nice place to sit in back that is outdoors, nice place to grab a pint and relax a bit.

    During the last year I have visited The Minories couple of times, each time happier than before, and each time, my expectations continued to be exceeded. On the last visit, we ordered a sharing platter, it was absolutely flavorful, well presented and more than enough for two. Apart from the tasty food, the ambience was fantastic, even though my team lost the final match that night, I never felt gloomy. Last but not least, I would love to mention the leadership team, the friendly effective good-looking manager was looking after all the individuals that evening and making sure everything run smoothly, and everyone is pleased. Already planning the next visit.

    Surprisingly lively at midnight on Saturday and very convenient if you happen to have just got off the DLR at Tower Gateway. A lot of large screens with sports that are on all the time, but they play a good mix of music.

    Fantastic food, drink and atmosphere. This place is like a tar dis, it is quite large inside, various different areas including a beer garden. Love the order / pay by app, using the MyPub app, so easy and works really well. Staff are really professional, helpful and food, drinks arrive really quickly. The fish and chips was good quality, decent sized portion. Tried the spicy cauliflower for a starter, amazing! One that I will have again for sure.

    Thanks Francesca, Shay and Abdul For the great customer service. Very accommodating for everything. It's just a stones throw away from The Tower Bridge in London. Make sure that you stop by and tell them James sent you. Grab some grub and a cold one.

    Nestled in the heart of London, The Minories is a true sports bar enthusiast's paradise. From the moment we stepped in, it was evident that they take their love for sports seriously, as the plethora of high-definition TVs surrounded us from every angle, ensuring no one in the establishment would miss a single moment of their favorite game. One of the highlights of our visit was the beer garden, which proved to be a fantastic spot for our large party of seven. The Minories' efficient staff seamlessly accommodated us, providing a comfortable and lively atmosphere to enjoy a good time with friends. Despite not being a vegan-specific restaurant, we were pleasantly surprised by the vegan mac and cheese. It had a creamy texture and a delightful blend of flavors that even non-vegans could appreciate. The Minories deserves praise for catering to different dietary preferences and delivering a dish that would make any plant-based eater content. For the traditionalists in our group, the regular mac and cheese did not disappoint either. The dish was the epitome of gooey goodness and packed with an indulgent cheesiness that delighted our taste buds. A comforting and classic choice that complements the sports bar ambiance perfectly. Of course, a sports bar wouldn't be complete without a stellar rendition of fish and chips. The Minories' take on this quintessential British dish left a lasting impression on me. The portion size surpassed my expectations, and the fish was cooked to perfection, enveloped in a crispy golden batter that was both satisfying and delicious. As if we hadn't already indulged enough, we couldn't resist trying the nachos, and we were glad we did. The nachos were piled high with generous helpings of toppings, and each bite offered a harmonious medley of flavors. It was the perfect finger food to accompany the excitement of the sports events playing on the screens. To sum up, The Minories is a fantastic spot for sports enthusiasts and food lovers alike. The abundance of TVs guarantees an unforgettable sports viewing experience, and the welcoming beer garden easily accommodates large parties. The menu surprises with its vegan options, and the regular comfort foods, like mac and cheese and fish and chips, are nothing short of delightful. If you find yourself in London and craving a lively sports bar with great food, The Minories should be at the top of your list.

    Wonderful pub with a great beer garden! Have to say special thanks to our host Nazir who was friendly and kind to us both :) the food also looked fantastic, if you want a chilled out vibe close to the tower then come here :) I like that you could hear the tube running overhead as well, thanks guys for such a great afternoon - come to this pub!!

    This was our first London food experience! It was close to our hotel and one of the first we found showing the Formula 1 race. The food was good. The service was okay. The atmosphere is nice. It is our first time in London so we had to figure things out. Order at the bar for both food and drinks. Pay at the bar when you order. They bring the food to you. They do have vegan options and some good beer!

    It has a really nice atmosphere i give them that but everything else is average. Both the food, that was unseasoned (not even salt), and the beers (they only have 6 to choose from), were both average in flavour at best...also i find weird/ annoying the whole self service thing

    This place is really cool. Locals recommended and did not fail. Grab fish and chips and enjoy a pint of the local ale. Reservations recommended, can get really busy.

    it's a great pub, with the most helpful staff we met in London so far. The bar tender called Zsolt explained every option on the menu and helped us pick the food suited our group the best. Excellent service.

    Schöner Pub in tollem Ambiente. Leckeres Essen und gutes Bier. Man kann auch live Sport schauen.

  • 5/5 Tanmay S. 5 months ago on Google • 36 reviews
    This is our all time favorite hangout place after office hours. Whether it's the middle of the week or beginning of a weekend. Very close to my office which makes it our first choice. Staffs are friendly and the food is good. We usually prefer to sit outside as that feels more spacious for a larger group. If you're new in the city of London, you should give it a try. ✌️🙂

    We order a fish and chips to share with two beers and everything was great, good food, good service and good prices. Perfect for a quick lunch if you are visiting the Tower of London

  • 3/5 Becca D. 1 year ago on Google
    The building is a hidden gem under the railway bridge. It's got a really nice atmosphere and is kept very clean. Unfortunately, after the bartender told me a pint was £5.80 and I had walked away with my drink, it came to light they were £7.30 each. When our food arrived, it turns out they'd ordered us the wrong meal as well. Mistakes happen, that's okay. £8 for the small portion of fries we received is very expensive though.

    Great place! Mark at the bar is such a great guy! Great choice of beers & alcohol. Fish and chips was spot on. Got a wrong order for my wife which they quickly realised & changed it immediately. Super service & a great spot for a good meal with a cold one.

    We visited on remembrance weekend as we were staying at a local hotel. It weren't aware of the pub until we saw it walking to our hotel and as we had to wait a while to check in, we decided to have a few drinks inside. We watched some horse racing and drank a few beers and also some local ales which were great. The pub keeps an old London look and the rear beer garden is amazing 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

    Very large and old school pub with many different cool seating areas, screens, and even a beer garden. Trains going overhead gives a nice feel. However service was a little slow, even though it wasn't busy at all

  • 5/5 Ryan B. 1 year ago on Google
    The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Sharing plates are more than enough for two and delicious! We'll definitely come back.

  • 4/5 Graham T. 1 year ago on Google
    Young lady behind the bar was doing a fabulous job of serving the massive queue of customers, she was working alone as two other staff had not turned up, and still had a sunny disposition when I got to the front of the queue (after standing in the queue for 40 minutes!) Well done! She deserved a medal!

    Great Pub, Friendly Staff, Great Beer garden with plenty of TV's to watch the Sport

  • 5/5 Richard 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic pub in a great location and with loads of space inside and out. Unobtrusive screens are plenty for sports nights and the decor and choice of drinks are great. With a small outside bar in the back beer garden they seem to have it all covered. Lovely bar!

  • 4/5 Chris H. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a great pub tucked behind the Tower of London. I've only ever been when it's been quiet, so cannot comment on how busy it gets. But you get a friendly welcome and there is always a great selection of beers on offer! Well worth a visit.

  • 3/5 Marcus Ui N. 2 years ago on Google
    Great location, Nice boozer, Staff under the current situation were great! However, can i please show you how to pull/serve a pint of Guinness? It was not good. No head on it. Please don't assume that all your customers are foreign tourists there to look at the Bridge and Tower. Thank you. M.

  • 4/5 Mike L. 2 years ago on Google
    At out Christmas lunch the food was very good, with an excellent vegan option. The staff were really helpful without being intrusive. Truly a great place for a celebration.

  • 4/5 Neil C. 2 years ago on Google
    Long bar set under the railway arches, with various rooms off the main drag. Surprisingly large outdoor space with booths and tables and many many TV screens showing sport. Friendly staff and decent Guinness. Food looked good, but didn't have any. Nice option when close to the Tower of London

  • 5/5 Janine W. 2 years ago on Google
    Clean, friendly atmosphere, good music, food reasonable although did expect chunky fish fingers and not usual supermarket type ones that was slightly disappointing but a lesson learned. Chicken wings and chorizo croquettes are too tasty

  • 5/5 Kris P. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely establishment. Always enjoy a cold beer in here. Garden is amazing, screens all around to watch sport. Friendly staff and decent prices

  • 5/5 neil p. 2 years ago on Google
    Great night. Pretty busy but not too busy! Drinks were all fine. Been coming here on and off for many years! Great outdoor space when the sun is out and it's not raining!
