The Hercules is a traditional pub and restaurant with a modern character at 2 Kennington Road, close to Lambeth North station and the South Bank. Its name and interior draw on Lambeth’s circus history, while the location suits local lunches, sightseeing breaks and meals before or after a performance.

Fresh, seasonal ingredients underpin a menu of refined pub classics and international favourites. Burgers, gourmet sandwiches and social sharing platters provide hearty choices, while salads and lighter dishes make the selection flexible across different appetites.

Vegetarian and vegan dishes appear alongside the pub staples, and regular blackboard specials allow the kitchen to respond to the season. Breakfast is served on weekdays, with lunch and dinner continuing through the week and food available every day.

Cask ale is a particular strength, including established Fuller’s beers and rotating local or seasonal choices, alongside craft beer and a wider stocked bar. Private rooms and a garden support celebrations and group dining. Guests with allergies should consult the current menu and discuss ingredients and shared preparation areas with staff.

Address: 2 Kennington Road, Lambeth, London SE1 7BL, England
