The Mudlark is a historic Nicholson’s pub on Montague Close near London Bridge, Borough Market and the River Thames. Its name recalls the people who once searched the muddy riverbank for coal, metal and other valuable objects, connecting the pub directly with the working history of this part of London.
British pub classics shape the food, with fish and chips, sausage and mash, sandwiches and generous bar snacks suited to both quick lunches and longer meals. Handcrafted pies are a speciality, combining rich fillings, pastry or mash and traditional accompaniments such as vegetables and gravy.
Cask ale from specialist breweries is central to the bar, joined by craft beer, wine, gin and an extensive whisky selection. Desserts such as sticky toffee pudding, apple pie and chocolate brownie keep the menu firmly connected to familiar pub comfort after a hearty main course.
A large outdoor area provides useful space near the river, while the mezzanine and Wharfside Bar can accommodate private groups and events. Market visitors, local workers and travellers all give The Mudlark a lively rhythm, especially around lunch and the busy hours before an evening in central London.
Address: Montague Close, London Bridge, London SE1 9DA, United Kingdom
