Isnāt it fascinating to learn about our city!
1ļøā£ Historic Origins: The Mayflower Pub, located in Rotherhithe, is one of London's oldest pubs, dating back to the 16th century. Itās named after the famous ship that set sail for America in 1620, and legend has it that the captain, Christopher Jones, lived nearby.
2ļøā£ Unique Transatlantic Connection: This pub is the only one in England licensed to sell U.S. postage stamps. Why? Because of its close ties to the Mayflower voyage, it remains a symbolic link between England and America.
3ļøā£ Riverside Charm: Perched on the banks of the River Thames, the pub offers stunning waterside views, especially from its cozy outdoor terrace. Itās a popular spot for history buffs and anyone who loves a pint with a view! šŗā

If you can tell us of a London pub with more charm, charisma and age than our beautiful @mayflowerpub then we want to know.
It dates back to circa 1550 and when the tide is low you can spot the original 1620 mooring point of the Pilgrim Fatherās Mayflower Ship.
Join us this weekend for some delicious food and drink, then sit back and think who was in your seat over 400years ago.
And donāt forgetā¦ we have a jetty with superb views up, down and across the River Thames!
Oh - and all of our food is homemade but more on that another time!!
Hope to see you soon!
