Small pub with real ale near Guy's Hospital and [[London Bridge Station]]. The decor inside is heavily focused on bare wood, and the interior is broken up by wooden screens with glass panes. There's a dartboard to the right of the bar.

We've visited several times now, most recently in June 2019. On a Sunday early evening in May 2009, there were just a couple of other customers in at 5pm. Music was playing, ranging from relatively quiet sort of Portishead-like when we arrived to louder and more bizarre later on. On another visit on a Friday early evening in November 2011, tables were at a premium (not helped by a large reserved area) but there was standing room at the bar, and a little hovering eventually gained us somewhere to sit.

On a Thursday afternoon in June 2019, there were quite a few people in around 4pm, and in addition a lot of the empty tables had signs on saying they were booked from 6pm. Bland pop music was playing, not too loud, and there was a pleasant buzz of conversation, again not too loud. By 5pm it had got a lot louder and busier, and by 6pm there were no free tables either inside or outside.
They had three real ales on - Brakspears, London Pride and another. They served food until 9pm.
== Line 6 ==
The real ales available in May 2009 were Brakspears Bitter, London Pride, and Davenport Bee-Zone (£1.60/half). Blackboards outside and behind the bar advertised other ales coming soon (Golden Hare, Everards Sundance, Hopback Crop Circle). In November 2011, the ales were Jennings Cumberland (£3.25/pint), Brakspear Bitter, and Brakspear Oxford Gold. In June 2019, they had three Brakspear ales: Oxford Gold, Jericho Pale, and Gravity. A pint of lime and soda was £1.80.

They used to do Mongolian food (see [http://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki.cgi?id=Horseshoe_Inn%2C_SE1_3QP&version=14 old version of this page] for an assessment), but as of early 2014 this is no more. They now do pub food and pizzas.

There's a bookable function room upstairs; it's quite plain but includes the roof terrace, which is nice.

Accessibility: Small step (more of a ridge) to get in. Step-free to the bar, at least some of the seating area, and the ladies' toilets, but didn't check the gents'. There's a accessible toilet on the level, but it's in the least accessible corner of the pub, past several tightly-packed tables.
