The Charlotte is a lively pub at 204 Union Street in Southwark. Its central location and late weekend opening make it a natural meeting point for lunch, after work drinks and informal evenings close to the South Bank and Borough.
Food covers both shareable small plates and familiar pub favourites. Ribs, wings and tacos bring bold, casual flavours, while burgers provide a more complete meal and smaller snacks allow a group to order gradually alongside drinks.
The kitchen places emphasis on ingredients sourced from London suppliers and offers enough variety for anything from a quick lunch to dinner. The format is deliberately approachable, with dishes built for relaxed eating rather than a formal multi course service.
Cocktails, wine and beer give the bar broad appeal, and the combination of food and longer opening hours supports social occasions. The Charlotte is best suited to diners who want a cheerful pub atmosphere, substantial comfort food and the flexibility to stay for drinks afterwards.
