It's an intriguing tale. The name, "Doggett's Coat and Badge," honors Thomas Doggett, who organized the historic London Bridge to Chelsea rowing race in the Thames. This event, dating back to 1715, is considered the oldest continuous sporting competition in the UK. The four-mile, seven-furlong race occurs annually in July. The winner was originally awarded a waterman's coat and badge, inspiring the pub's name.
Upon Doggett's death in 1721, he bequeathed in his will that The Fishmongers' Company continue the race, a tradition upheld to this day. Located along the race course in South Bank, our pub is named in homage to its founder.

September 2024We recently hired the rooftop area for the day 2 of our wedding. The space has been recently renovated and is absolutely perfect for a party, especially if the weather is nice. They provide a BBQ for the event, we chose the premium menu and the buffet included salads and potatoes and plenty of BBQ food. All the guests were impressed with the food it was really delicious! We were able to hire the space all day and when the city lights come on the view is even more spectacular from the rooftop! We hired a singer to play at the event which the pub were happy for us to do and it was a great addition to the day! Such a great day, thank you!

October 2024What a great place to spend a lazy Saturday afternoon. This was our first stop after we dropped our bags at our nearby hotel. We split the large fish and chips. Both were cooked to perfection. We had a carafe of tap water to quench our thirst. But dang, the bar menu looked incredible. Our server in the small dining room did a great job of taking care of us. Top two levels were hosting private parties, so we sat in the main floor dining hall. As we were leaving, we went down a level to where the party was happening!! It was lit. Overall, this was a great pUb to grab a bite to eat. Excellent views of the Thames river! We weren't disappointed!

October 2024We ordered the Sunday Roast (beef) and it was very good. We loved it! We also ordered a veggie salad, which was good too. The service was very nice with us, and the area is good too.

August 2024Lovely venue by the Thames for all occasions! There is plenty of indoor seating with plenty of TVs for sport, a nice beer garden to the rear, and several Thames-side tables at the front. Unfortunately, permanent QR codes to oder on the table were too worn to use. Bar service was quick, but there was confusion over bringing platter and main dishes together - even when I queried - and this ruined the meal. Food was pretty good, except the prawn sauce, which may have had too much mustard in it. The bar wasn't very clean customer-side, staff didn't seem to care which was disappointing, possibly understaffed for very nice evening sunny weather. There is a fantastic rooftop balcony available to hire privately, and a good selection of food and drink. I will be back !!!
