The Southwark place to be for gigs
Known locally as ‘The Glad’, this independent family-run pub is affectionately named after four-time former prime minister William Gladstone. Located a stone's throw away from Borough tube station, expect Anglo-Indian dishes including favourites such as curry pies and Indian Sunday roasts. Accompanying the spice is a strong selection of British craft beer, wine and cocktails. An array of entertainment can also be found. Gigs, comedy, quizzes and open mic nights all feature weekly.
A pub that sheds a gentle melancholy upon the soul.
Steeped in over 200 years of history, The Glad was mentioned by Charles Dickens in the Pickwick Papers as somewhere that “sheds a gentle melancholy upon the soul”. However, you’d be forgiven for mistaking melancholy for celebration now, as The Glad is now very much somewhere to have fun!
