NOTE:Given its prominent location, The Doggetts could so easily be another awful tourist trap charging foreigners over the odds for dodgy beer and "traditional British food". It isn't. Sure, plenty of tourists do use this pub as a stopping off point on the Thames Path between the South Bank and the Tate Modern, however it is also popular with local office workers. There are two outside terraces making this a good summer pub. The terrace at the front offers fine views of the river between Blackfriars and Waterloo bridges. The terrace at the rear unfortunately overlooks a gigantic hole in the ground masquerading as a building site. Sky is permanently on the many TV screens making this a haven for sports fans. I have fond memories of queueing up outside the doors to see Brazil v England in the 2002 World Cup. The beer's not bad either. At the time of review Bombadier, London Pride, Bass and Speckled Hen were all on.
