The London Tavern which has been serving the people of Poulner and those travelling through since the 1860s. We are just a couple of minutes off the A31 and well worth a detour. Food is served at lunchtimes and in the evenings and has developed a great reputation; we have dishes for all the family. Ingredients are sourced locally and we prefer to deal with producers from the forest and surrounding areas.
The selection of beers, lagers, ciders and wines is extensive and varied; and brandy, the reason why we exist, is stocked to this day along with all the other spirits. We love live music at the Tavern and we have a full and varied programme of performers. There is a large beer garden for the summer days and evenings and a huge log fire for those winter nights.
Whether you come to eat, drink, play darts, have a tea or coffee or take part in the quiz or other events you are assured of a warm welcome. Our landlord Phil took over the Tav in 2018 having been a regular since he came of age. When the lease became available he gave up his career to stand behind the bar that he had spent so many years in front of. Phil and the team welcome everyone to the Tavern.

Really lovely food, the service was brilliant. They had a live band on Saturday evening from 9 pm, which was very good, with a small area to dance. So very good if you want that. It's a little too loud to be able to talk. So, depending on what you want from your evening, it would depend on the day that's best for you to choose for your visit.
Loved how dogs and children were welcome. The hearth reminded me of Cinderella! We will be back some day.
Always good food but beware...the portion sizes are HUGE! Doggy bag always needed for my girly appetite. Lovely well cooked food and non touristy prices!
Lovely local pub with fantastic food. Service was excellent and food arrived within 15 minutes of ordering. Alcohol selection was also good. Would highly recommend.
Had a lovely meal there today with my daughter. To say the least I’ll definitely be going back again. The food was fantastic, I had the ribs and my daughter had the chicken burger the quality was fantastic, non of this thin stuff it was proper food and plenty of it. The ribs were out of this world I’ve yet to find and taste ribs like it. And the chicken burger not a thin slab of chicken but a proper wedge of chicken with chips that were awesome. Staff we’re very friendly and the whole place has a good vibe about it.
