The Railway Tavern, Bromley

We had a group Xmas party on 5th December as it was our typical place to go. What a disappointment it was! No food whatsoever - kitchen is closed, of which we were not informed in advance. In fact during the booking process in November they said that they have no Xmas menus yet, but I answered that we can order on the day - so they knew we also wanted some finger buffet. If I have known there is no food, we would have gone elsewhere. Add to hat - they didn't have any snacks at all. Absolutely nothing, and as an excuse I was told that they 'sold out'. How can you sell out all of your snacks? I feel sorry for the staff, because they need to respond to a client for poor management decisions. Other Antic pubs went through the same - first the kitchen is closed, then there is less and less stock as the company stops paying their suppliers - so obviously there are no snacks. Antic is going down the hill - is Railway Tavern another pub they will loose or sell? Maybe for the best as it's a shame seeing it under such bad directorship. So don't book any Xmas parties if you need anything else than just drinks.

I have visited here a few times while I am in Bromley.The pub is a nice friendly atmosphere and the staff are friendly. The reason for the 3 stars as they are not currently serving food .But they do not even have any snacks to offer .This has been going on for a few months now which for this pub is most disappointing. December is around the corner.It would be a shame if nothing is put in place.

Excellent pub and great prices.

Lovely place, girls are doing a great job there. Thanks for the mulled wine 🍷
