Prince of Peckham Pub

A year ago I came here, the jerk chicken plate was good. But today... A very disappointing meal/wasted time and money the food was beyond disappointment 😥 ended up in Costa after to wash it away. I came during very quite times, so I was very confused at the bad quality of food (burned chicken which was mainly made up of very burned skin and hard to chew, bland rice and beans meant to be rice and peas, and strings of raw tasteless cabbage served as coleslaw. The young waiter was not getting much help so customer service was not great (not his fault) For 20.00 (15 for the meal, 5 for side of plantains).... Was not a good experience. Won't be risking it again. I asked for a refund but the young waiter had to find the manager and I had to go. Overall.... A very disappointing meal/wasted time and money

Had a lovely time there with my friend. The staff was very attentive and the food truly out of this world. I highly recommend the jerk chicken which has a nice kick without being too spicy and the meat is moist and succulent. The toilets were well kept despite how busy it was. Really appreciated the heaters on the terrace. The atmosphere feels very trendy yet friendly. I only give it four stars as they had ran out of rosé and tequila so I couldn't have my favourite cocktail nor my next choice, which would have been rosé.

We booked a table in advance as we are aware this place can get busy, we wasn't really greeted on arrival sat down and a guy came over to confirm our booking and then walked off, no one comes to take your order and no menus given so had to go the bar to get menus etc Ordered the lamb platter, we waited a while for food eventually my food arrived my friends jerk chicken platter she still had to wait not ideal when food should be served same time. The food wasn't hot more like lukewarm lamb was nice and seasoned but the rest of it was alright. I feel the kitchen was stressed with all the orders coming through ie they have a lot of takeaway orders being prepped alongside in house food orders ie they apologised for Bringing food out late and offered a free drink. This satff member was very pleasant and I did feel for them as they seemed to be the only one trying to get orders out to customers The place is a nice atmosphere but the customer service is a bit questionable and staff looked confused at times with orders and placing orders. Nice venue food was alright but for what you get seemed quite small portions for the platter specials. Ie a group came in and sat down at a table next to us and wanted to order drinks and was told to go to the bar to order. They didn't look impressed If your serving food and drinks you should state that food and drink needs to be ordered at the bar. It was all a bit confusing. Nice venue but I can see how overwhelmed they can get with influx of customers. Ie if you don't go to the bar to order food and drinks ie don't expect anyone to come to your table to take your order.

This was my third visit to Prince of Peckham, and it did not disappoint. I arrived late on Sunday evening and was told it was pop karaoke. When passing the threshold, the energy was warm and inviting. The decor was traditional mixed with vibrant imagery. I headed to the bathroom, which unfortunately wasn't well maintained. I had to ask staff for toilet roll. Once secured, the singing was so loud and jovial that I had to rush to see what the excitement was. The karaoke was in full swing. I made friends at the bar and ordered "The Prince". It was a rum based drink, reminiscent of a punch. It was really good. I left just before close which was around 12.30am, and staff directed through the side exit for safe departure. It was a rare gem to find such a vibrant atmosphere on a sunday! I'm looking forward to heading back for more fun and trying the food menu.

Nice pub to hang out with friends. Jerk chicken and chips were good! My only concern was with the cocktails — mine came in a small glass, but another table got the same drink in a larger one. Consistency in drink sizes would be nice, especially at the same price. Otherwise, everything was spot on.

Staff are lovely ! Sweet and helpful especially Kieran. Jerk plates slapped, exceeded my expectations. Tender and flavoursome meat 🙂‍↕️

First thing first, make sure you book your table in advance if you want to sit down in this place. It seems that you can only sit for a fixed period of time as we were turfed out of our seats because our table was booked for someone else at a particular time, “so annoying” this place is not far fro Peckham Rye and is quite spacious they have a private area upstairs then the main area on the ground floor and a basement space with a tiny bar. My honest assessment of this place on a Friday night is beautiful chaos, ordering from the main bar is a nightmare, but that’s because it’s busy. Four of us decided to meet up at this place and order some food and drinks. We all ordered the Jerk Chicken and fries which came with coleslaw well at least that’s what I think it was. The food was bland and tasteless on this occasion with not even a hint of spice, if you know anything about Jerk chicken it’s meant to be spicy. By the time the food arrived it was luke warm so immediately bad brownie points. Don’t forget this was after we were all moved from our precious table. No one enjoyed the food I checked to make sure I wasn’t just being a “Jerk” excuse the pun. The portion was fair but as mentioned tasteless on this visit. I need to add that this not is just one persons opinion and it could have been an off day because I have been there in the daytime for lunch and the food definitely tasted better. The positives was that the atmosphere was fun and friendly the place felt safe because the security was on point. The security staff were polite and friendly. Some of the staff were really nice and helpful especially a young lady with dreads so was so apologetic when we had to move and helpful throughout the evening. The music was great apart from when the dj changed for a short while but overall music was fantastic. This really is a great place and with a great atmosphere as mentioned but the little things can ruin a night such as cheap cola instead of Coca Cola as a first option. This place I would say is for the 25-30ish year olds and up it’s a nice place to hang out. They also have outside seating which is a premium I forgot to mention which in the summer is going to be rammed. So food 8 out of 10, atmosphere 10 out of 10, drinks expensive. I have since been back and can no longer complain about the quality of the drinks. Staff 10-10.

The service had a touch of chaos; although the waiters were helpful, we weren't informed about ordering at the bar (no table service). The warm atmosphere with loud music may not suit everyone's taste. The food, rich in flavor, especially the oxtail, was delightful. The crispy wings, though undersold on the menu, exceeded expectations, as six were served instead of the stated three – truly wonderful. Highly recommend this Caribbean fusion pub.

The food was decent, music and ambiance was cool;' the service with a few waiters was cool and service with a couple of them was simply trash. They definitely need some professional development on how to deal with the patrons properly. Also, if they know that the bar gets busy around certain times, develop a system. We placed an order with our waitress, and she was simply missing for about 40 mins. We kept looking around like where's our drinks? I finally asked and they said she went on break. Ummmm... you want to let someone know, including the tables you're waiting on? Rude and unprofessional. Nonetheless, the DJ was pretty fun and kept things moving along. Now let's discuss the female bathroom. Just GROSS. I immediately felt the need to bathe after using the restroom here. They need a complete overhaul. It smelled like mildew and was unclean; no nice way to put it. Get that together. The worst thing ever is to use a grubby bathroom at a restaurant and have to return to your table and eat. Yuck. The restroom should be just that-- a REST ROOM. A place to go recover and feel better and more fresh. That was not the case at all. On a positive, the place had great music and flavor. They just need some professional development meetings, perhaps some wisdom or more mature oversight along with a major bathroom upgrade, immediately. Happy restaurant hopping!!

London's best 2 in 1. I was across the pond for business and was looking for a place to relax, eat and also hear some good music. That's not a small task, especially if one of those is severely lacking. Prince of Peckman delivers with some of the best wings I've ever had. The honey garlic wings were superb! I wanted to order more food, but they were whole wings so I was just fine with that. The customer service is lacking, mostly due to staffing and the amount of people this place attracts. The servers take your order and If you sit outside like I did, they just try and come find you. It's pretty chaotic, everyone was nice and professional but they need a better system. So I got the food and relaxing patio I was looking for, the last piece of the puzzle was some good music. Never fear, the Prince turns into a club after 10pm. They play a variety of genres, with smooth transitions all night. I left around 1am, but this place was still going strong at that point. Pro tip: Get there at 9pm and eat and enjoy yourself, when the place turns into a full blown night club you don't have to pay for entry. There is a re entry fee and a lonnnnng line to wait if you do decide to leave and come back after 10pm.

Prince of Peckham is such an amazing spot. It's Black Owned and that was enough for me to stop and support ! I don't know which was better the food or the vibe!? I came on a Thursday night which was such a perfect day. It was well attended but not overwhelmingly packed. This particular Thursday was R&B Thursday and TALK ABOUT A VIBE! The music was great, the drinks were flowing, and the dance floor was burning. The DJ really set us up for a great and fun night! In addition to the smooth vibe and the tasty drinks (try the daiquiri) the food was the BEST JERK! The chicken was well seasoned and literally fell off the bone. The cabbage was cooked to the perfect texture and the rice and peas tied the meal together! I highly recommend stopping by Prince of Peckham and prepare for a perfect night of vibes, friendly Black faces, and amazing amazing food!

Place closed the door and told us to leave after we already bought a ticket to get in.

My mother and I decided to support more businesses of color during our most recent visit to London. We came all the way from the US for this place. The food was ON POINT! Good chicken. All flavor and not too hot. Crazy dope atmosphere and staff. Worth the trip to Peckham. I'll definitely be back when I'm in London again.
