Reviews


Located on the side of Brockwell Park in south London, this restaurant boasts a spacious interior with outdoor space as well. However, despite its nice ambiance, the food has received mixed reviews. Some diners have complained about the soured guacamole, lukewarm wine, and inedible roast beef with poorly cooked veggies. The prices have also been a point of contention for some customers, with one feeling put off after being charged for a large glass of rose wine. There have also been complaints about unfriendly staff and issues with bills. On the positive side, others have praised the good beer selection, excellent food, and the surprising dog-spotting opportunities. While the wait time for food on busy days has been a drawback for some, the friendly staff and gestures like offering a free dessert have been appreciated. Overall, while the food quality and service levels have been inconsistent, the restaurant seems to have some redeeming qualities for those looking for a nice pub in Herne Hill, The Florence usually has an average rating of 4.

One of the best Sunday Roasts Iv had in a long time! Pub is in a great location next to the park and close to the Sunday weekend Market!
