Old Brewery

Exceptional British Delights in Vibrant Atmosphere

Tucked away in the heart of Greenwich, The Old Brewery offers more than just a meal—it's an experience brimming with atmosphere and culinary delight. Nestled close to the pier and within sight of the iconic Cutty Sark, this charming spot manages to blend the quintessence of a traditional British pub with a refreshing, contemporary undertone. On sunny days, its outside terrace basks in the warm glow, while indoors, the tastefully curated decor and historic memorabilia add rich layers of character. The service had its highs and lows, with some patrons singing praises for waitstaff like Sopheena and Rohan, whose attentiveness and charm painted the visit with memorable strokes. Others weren't as fortunate, encountering those infamous grumpy staff whispers you might hear in any large city's dining scene.

But let's pause at what's staged beautifully here: food that evokes the hearty flavors of Britain, often without pretension, yet with a knack for satisfaction. The Sunday roasts arrive touted as local legends—grand in their generosity and love, echoing the spirit of English hospitality. Meanwhile, fish and chips dance the delicate line between canonical and perfected, crisp but never greasy. It's said to hold court alongside their thoughtfully curated beer and cocktail selections, splendidly handled by dedicated staff ready to recommend a perfect pint or a crafted cocktail. Yes, some felt the menu speculation of vegetarian dishes needs sprucing up—as daylight seems far less than generous here—but rest assured, regardless of your order, you'll find yourself amidst lively banter, good spirits, and an ambience that pleads for an encore. — Audrey Al Dente
