The Gable

Excellent pub with a wide range of spirits and beers on tap. I went for a Christmas meal and they were able to fit us in at relatively short notice. Food was excellent and staff were very friendly. Prices are expensive but it's a pub in this area of London so it's not exceptional. Pub was cold as they have front and back doors open in December, but I applaud them keeping the place ventilated in these covid times. Wasn't busy when we went but tables were well spaced.

Went there for an event - meetup. The ground floor was very nice, spacious, drinks and food delicious, lovely and helpful staff. The venue was downstairs which was more cosy and a bit dark. Only drawback - music was too loud to my taste (as to be fair is in most pubs and bars) for a meetup like this. Otherwise - 5 stars!

Good atmosphere in the bar on a Friday night. However the staff were incredibly rude to both myself and multiple people who I was with. One guy in particular was rolling his eyes at us and making us feel bad simply for ordering drinks!

Had an amazing time at the Gable. The guys in there were so nice and the service was excellent. I reserved some space for 6 and they sat me and my friends in lovely large booth. Great food, great tunes, great time 👍🏽

First time visit & the staff were lovely with a nice pub setting/decor. Going to sound really old now but the music was too loud for a Tuesday after work. I shouldn't have to shout to speak to a friend when a large pub is half empty. Otherwise a nice place.

Attended a birthday bash here and it was fab. Great venue and staff. Food was great and the bar is spacious and can accommodate a good number of people. There's a dance floor downstairs with a bar. DJ sets up in red telephone boxes! Loved the place as did many other people.

Incredibly bad service. We waited for 1h during lunchtime just to get drinks including tab water, and waited 1.5h to get food although the place wasn't even busy. We had to extend our lunch break because of that and were starving. And once it arrived, the food was cold. Some drinks were forgotten. We also could not pay since the whole system was off, taking up more of our time. Worst experience.

Came in for drinks one night with my friends and it was great. Also, very caring staff. My friend was throwing up in the bathroom and this staff member with black and green Nike shoes got him some water and gave him some chewing gum. Very well mannered

I visited this place with my friends and the bartender who served me was amazing. I don't remember his name but he was quite big and I believe he was new. The drinks are absolutely class and the atmosphere is amazing. Especially the choice of music

I had the chicken and bacon salad. I agree with the other posts, the service here is the worst. I actually asked my waitress which was better of three options and her only response was well the salad is healthier. no kidding? If you don't know what is a better/best thing on the menu why are you even in the service business? My waitress disappeared at some point to talk with her friend. After finishing my dinner,I went to the bathroom and for the first time in my life considered walking out on the bill. When I came back from the bathroom, my table was cleared already. No waitress in site.

Nice menu and comfortable space. Just expect the worst service known to man. Slow. No menu. Food took forever. When it came it had no cutlery. Waited for the check forever too. Plenty of better options in the area.

Came here for a drink and some food one lunchtime. They were closing for the afternoon for a function, but we weren't rushed at all. Had steak, which was lovely. Will definitely be coming here again!!!!

A pretty standard pub in the middle of the City. Does decent food, but they frequently offer 25% off the food bill and accept group bookings, so it's been a stalwart local venue for team/business lunches!

They have basement private rooms with a bar/dance floor, so worth looking into if you're looking for somewhere out of the way that is more private.

Otherwise, nothing particularly outstanding as it's fairly busy all the time

Staff are soooooo hungover today, really quite a laugh, come down and make fun of them, our waitress just dropped the ketchup pot, twice.
Burger are as good as ever, but no scampi today. Chef forgot to order me thinks.... LOL.
Love the Gable, real people staff and great food. What's not to love!!!!

I met in here with an old friend for a catch up. Not the best idea that I have had of late.
I met with her at 7pm, on a Wednesday night.
So, when I walked in and spotted my friend, she told me to take a seat and that the waiter would be over soon to take a drinks order. This never happened - it did for her when she ordered her drink whilst waiting for me, so it wasn't like I was incorrectly assuming - so eventually after sitting there to the point of awkwardness, I got up and went to the bar.
The lady serving me I think was more there for decoration purposes than anything else. It was totally

Nice place for after work drinks. Happy hour is awesome here, I attended a surprise birthday and had a nice big area booked in the cellar. The music was really good, better than the cocktails by far!! Danced the night away, and glad the drink prices didn't break my bank account! Great place for a Friday night. It is a suit bar but what do you expect, everywhere in the city is like that!!

This bar/ restaurant is situated just down the side of Londons Guildhall
Unassuming outside you walk of the street in to a buzzing atmosphere in. Bistro setting
We were here to have lunch, a group of 10 celebrating a colleagues birthday
Service was a little slow but it was very busy, food good (I had the haddock) but nothing to write home about

Not gonna mention anything about this being a "suit bar" being that it is in the City. D'uh.
Second time here in two weeks: one leaving and one b'day party. The Gable has been refurbished since I used to come here back in the day. Downstairs is now a disco club type venue which I liked as the service is quicker than upstairs but it's f**king loud! If you're at the second part of your night (the part when everyone is battered and wants to bust out hideous moves on the dance floor) then this is where you wanna be.
Happy Hour is good, so this place is rammo between

Came for lunch and happy hour.

2 stars for lunch food - expensive for rather boring food. Service was inattentive. Had ask for water and no one ever came by to refill glasses.

3 stars for happy hour - it's a happening place for local business people. It was busy nearly every evening.

Good looking restaurant. Would return for happy hour but not for sit down food.

Agreed that this is a suit bar but being that its right next to all the big banks, what do you expect??

Me and a couple colleagues went for drinks here and had the emazing happy hour drinks and food here. This is half off EVERYTHING, including bottles of wine and champagne etc. We ordered two bottles of Piper Heisdeck and a meat and cheese platter and were super satisfied with everything. I mean where else can you get such an awesome happy hour from 5 - 8?? Happy Hour=Happy Namita!

DJ was alright but on a weeknight you probably should limit to a normal decibel, not the crazy im goign to

It helps if you wear a suit to The Gable as it is useful for blending in with the clientele. This is a City Boy place located in the heart of the City.

At lunch it has the air of an upmarket pub with a pricey food menu and City folk having low key meetings with clients. At night the generous 50% off offer turns the venue into a loud bar/nightclub complete with DJ. As it is free to get in The Gable is a good spot for a cheaper night out in the Square Mile.

The Cellar is located as the name would suggest at the bottom of the building, here it is much quieter more of a place to relax in the evenings

A city-boy type of place, appropriately located right in the city. There were definitely far more men here than women, not that I am complaining. The atmosphere is bustling and not unpleasant. There is table service available in certain seats, but curiously not others depending upon whether an area is classed as a seating area or not. The music is generally not too loud, which is a definite plus for me. Overall I would recommend this place, for a couple of pints and a quick bite after work, but not as a destination in its own right.
