Picture of Lord Nelson, SE1 0LR

Historical version 8 of Lord Nelson, SE1 0LR (view current version)

A pub very close to Southwark Station, done up in a retro trendy way. Recently changed management; the new landlord is very chatty. London Pride was on at £2.60 ish. The landlord gave me a taster first. It was certainly drinkable.

Does food lunchtimes and evenings. Possibly a constantly changing menu. Rib-eye steak was £9.95, burger was £7. They do Sunday roasts from noon to 5pm.

There is possibly free wireless. They put on a poker night on Mondays (£10 to buy in).

Comment added by Bar Hopper: This place has changed beyond all recognition - out with the beige and in with red walls, flowers, candles, great street art (so i'm told) and some seriously good food. I had the chicken, leek & mushroom pie and my significant other went for the pork fillets in a cream & peppercorn sauce. The staff were really friendly at the bar and in the restaurant & the bar crowd seemed to be a really nice mix of after work types and assorted drunk trendies... i'll be back soon.

Comment added by Bec: I visited 7th August 2007 and instantly fell in love with the kind, chatty bar staff. A half pint of lime and soda is .40p and a small glass of very tasty house red is £3.00. Also, the sandwich board had a picture of Prince, His Royal Purpleness, under the Lord Nelson sign. Hooray!

Comment added by Ewan: Last visited 24 Aug 2007 (and again 24 Sep 2007). The duty manager was very chatty, the food was excellent (I had vegetarian pie), and the ales were Black Sheep Bitter and Pride. House wine was a very quaffable Concha y Toro merlot. Pint of lime & soda was £1. Gets busy on a Friday night, so you'll need to be in early to secure an outdoor table.
