picture of Cutty Sark Tavern
Confusingly, the Cutty Sark Tavern is not as near to the Cutty Sark (well, what's left of it) as you'd imagine. There are quite a few pubs a lot nearer that would probably better qualify for the name. Still, once you find it (it's a five minute walk down river) it's a jolly decent place. The Georgian building and the riverside terrace are what make it worthwhile visiting here. And there are fine beers on to be enjoyed here too - such as Summer Ale, Broadside and Tiger s well as decent cider and wine. The service is polite and prompt and copes admirably with the crowds as they flock down here on a warm summer's evening (on the rare occasions we get them). The food's decent as well. Off season, it's a very nice place for a pint or two with it's excellent views and relaxed atmosphere, but the freneticism of the summer months removes some of the shine - but such is the way with many tourist pubs. Well worth a visit though, any time of the year.
