The Garrison Public House is a bustling neighbourhood restaurant at the heart of Bermondsey Streets creative community and just a short skip from the comestible delights of Borough Market. We take full advantage of being an independent restaurant; from our quirky, inimitable interior to our considered wine list and engaging staff, we make sure everything we do is done with The Garrison style. We are open everyday for lunch and dinner and our menu focuses on seasonal produce from our favourite artisan suppliers. Downstairs, our Cinema Room is available for private hire

A fabulous dinner, the food was excellent. Our server was not the friendliest and certainly didn’t make us feel ever so welcome. At £70 per head I would have thought more of an effort could have been made. Ran out of draft lager half way through the meal.

The staff were lovely and attentive, and the food tasted good. However the portions were very, very small (particularly mains and sides). Two of our party ordered the gnocchi, and had we not been there to celebrate a birthday and no one wanted to make a fuss, we would have complained. The other meals (steak and Hake) were acceptable, but only just. We came to the Garrison to celebrate, as we have done in the past, but we are not likely to return. The food was delicious, but we all left feeling hungry, ripped off and tense - because no one wanted to state the obvious. The Garrison is not cheap and on this occasion was absolutely not worth the money. It was very disappointing and marred the occasion us.
