The Union Jack is a traditional neighbourhood pub at 225 Union Street in Southwark. Its informal setting makes it an easy stop for a pint, a casual meal or a gathering within walking distance of the South Bank and Borough.
Burgers anchor the food menu, with chicken and vegetarian options alongside loaded fries and bar snacks. The cooking is straightforward and generous, designed to work equally well as a quick bite or as the centre of a relaxed pub visit.
Beef, vegetarian and vegan lasagne broaden the choice, while sausage and mash and scampi provide familiar British comfort. The mix gives groups several substantial alternatives without losing the accessible character of a local pub menu.
Beer, cider, wine and spirits accompany the food, with sport and regular pub activity adding energy to the room. The Union Jack is best for diners seeking unfussy favourites, a well stocked bar and a sociable Southwark atmosphere.
Address: 225 Union Street, Southwark, London SE1 0LR, England
