The Stage Door Pub & Kitchen is a lively backstreet pub at 28 to 30 Webber Street, behind the Old Vic and a short walk from Waterloo. The main bar offers a friendly setting for food and drinks, while a roof garden catches the warmer weather. Its location makes it useful before or after a performance as well as for a casual neighbourhood visit.
Pieminister pies are served with mash and gravy, with optional minty peas, cheese and crisp shallots for a more generous plate. Fillings range from British beef and ale or chicken and ham to mushroom, quinoa and jackfruit recipes. The meat free choices allow vegetarian and vegan diners to enjoy the same comforting pub format.
Burgers include beef, crisp chicken and a plant based patty, all served in brioche style buns with seasoned fries. Fish and chips and stone baked pizzas provide familiar alternatives, while chicken wings, prawns, calamari, onion rings and cheesy chips work well as sides or bar snacks. Food is cooked to order and designed to be straightforward and satisfying.
The bar serves draught and bottled beer, cider, wine, spirits, gin, soft drinks and alcohol free beer. Televised sport creates a lively atmosphere around major matches, joined by live music and open microphone nights. Between the downstairs dining space, sociable bar and roof terrace, the Stage Door can shift easily from a quiet lunch to a busy evening gathering.
