Food Quality

Pros:

  • "The jerk chicken was soooo good I was dancing while eating."
  • "The jerk chicken and chips is phenomenal. So much flavour everywhere."
  • "Our food was excellent; full of flavour and nicely presented too."
  • "This time I ordered rice and peas and jerk chicken with sauce, and coleslaw and the chef put in a little surprise - sticky honey wings."
  • "The chicken and chips is jerk chicken with this sauce and fries seasoned with a garnish. It’s seasoned with perfect spices and it’s so moist it melts in your mouth."
  • "Ordered beer and jerk chicken, it was amazing."
  • "The best jerk chicken I've ever had. It has a lovely smoked taste which you don't find at many Caribbean takeaways or restaurants."
  • "The food I had here was amazing."

Cons:

  • "The jerk chicken was lukewarm... very dry...sloppy overpowering sauce slapped on and just not desirable in the slightest."
  • "The food was bland and tasteless with not even a hint of spice, if you know anything about Jerk chicken it’s meant to be spicy."
  • "The jerk chicken burger tasted great but came cold, chips too."
  • "Went to the Prince for the first time tonight, really cool atmosphere and the pints were nice. We decided to stay for dinner but all three of us were disappointed as it was quite bland."
  • "Visited on a Sunday for some Lunch and to watch the Football. The food was lovely however the service was awful."
  • "We personally tried the bottomless brunch which was enjoyable. Food is delicious here but the Jerk chicken could have had a little more flavour."
  • "My honest assessment of this place on a Friday night is chaos, ordering from the main bar is a nightmare."
  • "The jerk pork belly at almost £19 expected generous roast level portions. However, there was one skinny piece of pork belly, a little bit of rice and peas and coleslaw."

Service

Pros:

  • "The staff and service were good had nothing to complain about."
  • "The staff were very friendly and helpful the service was good."

  • "The service wasn't bad, the staff were nice and speedy."
  • "Food and drink were good and came quickly."
  • "We had a wonderful time catching up with family over Sunday dinner and a few drinks. Very reasonably priced, absolutely delicious food, and a great atmosphere."
  • "The food took 40min to come out, our jerk chicken had a lot of fat from the skin on it, but we just peeled it off. Everything tastes great and it’s such a great vibe!"
  • "The service was good."

Cons:

  • "Second time here and food great as usual but unfortunately due to a very rude staff member I had to change the service review from 5 to 1."
  • "The service wasn't bad, but there was a mix up with a table reservation which was an easy fix but the staff member dealing with was openly frustrated."
  • "Really unfortunate experience where staff tried to overcharge whilst it was happy hour and I had to inform them."
  • "We were still eating when a lady came into the area and told everyone to move. There were zero signs or reservations notices around us."
  • "We arrived to the establishment on time but had to wait 10mins before anyone came over to us."
  • "The food came quickly my chicken came half cold .. no mayo or ketchup!"
  • "Waited 25min for service even after going inside to ask twice, it was not busy, half full but not a single table outside had drinks on the tables."
  • "First time at the Prince of Peckham May I just say great venue and great music’ must I add Lee is an amazing guy he is very attentive and made us feel just at home, if you happen to be there when he is working."

Atmosphere and Ambiance

Pros:

  • "I was lucky enough to get the place, would recommend to anyone who is new to call and reserve the table before going to this place especially during lunch or peak time and festive seasons."
  • "Nice staff. Never been outside and chilled but people are always laughing or talking, with good vibes of music in the background."
  • "Good bustling venue with a great vibe!"
  • "Fantastic place! For us, Artists! The atmosphere is cool!"
  • "Prince of Pekham is my favourite dance spot in London."
  • "The Prince of Peckham is a great example of what a modern pub can provide for the community!!"
  • "Good music. During weekends it gets really busy. But during the weekdays it is less crowded."

Cons:

  • "I would also question the decor which is very tired looking and not so clean/fresh."
  • "The only drawback was the slow and, at times, haphazard service as a result of being understaffed."
  • "Girlfriend organised a birthday party for me at the Prince of Peckham (we had the yellow room) and the staff were absolutely incredible from day 1."
  • "If you're looking for a relaxed great vibe with good looking people and rnb/hip hop - this is the place for you."
  • "Good pub to go to for a chill out session on the weekend."
  • "Awful customer service!!! Had me & my friend waiting 40mins for me to ask them where our food is for them to then realise they made a mistake."
  • "The pub tunes the volume up later at night and can turn into a proper scene (I think mainly at the weekend)."
  • "The only thing I didn’t like was the table we were at, the seats are too high for the table so it was a bit uncomfortable."
