Where To Find Us

I saw somebody on YouTube in their vlog, and this pub was recommended as a good place where you can have not only a beer, of course, but the traditional beef pie with mash. They have like 4 or 5 different kind of pie with mash and also jellied eel .I tried the steak and kidney pie with mash and gravy. I was not disappointed cos it was delicious. The food is cheap and the service is quick. They have lots of sittings upstairs, too.

Generous, delicious portions of savoury pies and fluffy mash topped with rich gravy. What more can you ask for? This place is an institution. Order the jellied eels is you’re feeling brave (supposedly they’re an aphrodisiac!). I’d get them hot if it’s your first time with parsley sauce and chilli vinegar. Watch out for the bones in the middle. You order at the counter, where the service is friendly and efficient.

Not just a culinary institution, a real slice of London history. Choose from a variety of mouthwatering pies, from the traditional beef to vegetarian and vegan options, then either liquor (parsley sauce) or gravy from the bubbly staff, warmly welcoming locals and tourists alike. You can also go full old London Town style and try some jellied eels if you like. Our two portions of pie and mash, with soft drinks and a shared pudding of cherry pie and custard, cost just over £17- an absolute bargain in the heart of Greenwich. We went on a hot sunny day (not exactly classic pie weather) and there was a constant stream of satisfied customers!

Had hot reels alongside the usual and it was just what the doctor ordered. Been a while which made it even better.

Honestly, this was the best local experience of our 10-day London trip. As a family, we tried pie and mash and jellied eels. We chose jellied eels because it's a culturally significant London specialty, although it was a little different to our taste. But the pie and mashes were fantastic with their special sauces. They also sell vinegars made by the owner. It's definitely a must-visit place in London. If you go to Greenwich, you absolutely have to eat here. While similar flavors, coffee shops, sauces, and brands are becoming increasingly common all over the world, local businesses like this are much more valuable. Plus, the place is a family business that's been around for about 130 years... Thank you so much!

Very good food with fast service at surprisingly reasonable prices in a charming setting near many Greenwich sites. The staff are very helpful and the food is delicious and authentic. Be aware that they apparently don’t do table service — you order at the counter and carry the food to your table. That’s OK, but be aware to avoid disappointment or misunderstanding. We would definitely return!

Stepping into Goddards at Greenwich is like walking into a piece of London’s history. Open since 1890, the establishment perfectly preserves a lovely old-school feel, offering a truly traditional and quintessential Pie and Mash experience. This is not just a meal; it’s a cultural immersion into a time-honoured British classic. The main event, the handmade pie and mash, certainly lives up to the shop's legacy. The crust was excellent and the mash creamy, serving as a robust foundation for the meal. I found the filling, while generously portioned, to be a bit under-seasoned for my personal taste. Thankfully, this was easily remedied with a little salt, which brought the flavours right to the fore. Sometimes, in a traditional setting like this, a touch of personal adjustment is all it takes! In terms of dining experience, the service was fantastic. Despite the quick turnover, the staff were warm, welcoming, and attentive. They ensured the process was efficient without ever feeling rushed. If you are looking for an authentic taste of London, Goddards is the place to be. It’s a nostalgic and comforting spot that remains a vital part of the Greenwich culinary landscape, delivering tradition with quick, warm service.

Possibly the best pie and mash in London. Pies are home made and portions are generous. Best pies for me were the chicken & mushroom and the steak & ale pie, served with your choice of potato mash, mushy peas, baked beans and liquor or gravy. Prices are reasonable and service is good. Great authentic old school vibes.
