Wibbly Wobbly, Rotherhithe, London

Surreal.
I used to live very close to this place but only visited a couple of times. The novelty of supposedly being “England’s only floating pub” is just about all it has going for it I’m afraid. Heard lots of nautical-themed tunes when I was there. In general, the place is quite dated. It has the vibe of an early 90s Butlins. Not always a bad thing but not my cup of tea either.

It's a boat! It's a pub! It's both. I love this place. The name is certainly apt as you will feel the wibble wobble of the river at this floating boozer (especially after a pint or two).

If the sun's out and twinkling on the Thames, having drinks on the deck is ideal. Staff is proper friendly - as are the folks who choose to imbibe here. And who can blame 'em for being so pleasant. Put very simply, the Wibbly Wobbly is an excellent riverside spot to while away some time.

Great price for a pint.
It has an additional Jetty/ Beer Garden.
Fantastic for the summer.
CAUTION- if you think the place is starting to rock, you are not that pissed. It is that this pub is on water!

Pub Quiz is on Thursday night
And
Karaoke is Sunday.

This pub seems to be a hidden gem, judging by how not-very-busy it was on a Saturday evening. It really is an excellent concept in an excellent location, the tranquil Greenland docks, with a great view of the buildings of canary wharf.

Everyone likes a drink on a boat don’t they? On the other side of the boat there is a small outside jetty on the water too. Walk on this and you see where the pub’s name comes from.

They have a decent variety of drinks, but the only ales on offer are on the regular lager taps. I imagine this has something to do with the complication of serving cask ale on a boat, so I am going to let them off for that. Particularly as the service is so friendly.

I’ll definitely be back as I would like to show someone else this unique pub! Incidentally the best way to get here is probably on the London clipper. It’s all about the boats!

Unique pub…lovely locals, bit of a nightmare to get to, but worth it if you like to drink on board boats.

I used to come here for the weekly Open-mic comedy events, but stopped because I felt I wasn’t funny. It had nothing to do with the host MC Lloyd being known as 'rather creepy’.

This barge was owned by Malcom Hardee of comedy legend fame. He also used to own Up the Creek club in Greenwich. The story goes that he died rowing away from here one night, so best not to mention it out loud, but do ask people stories about why the man was such a legend. The stories I heard were better than most fiction I have read and the largest than life Wibbly Wobbly lives on in Greenland dock under the spectere of Canary Wharf on the other side of the river.

England’s only floating pub (that’s what they say) and a great place to be in summer, bobbing on the pontoon at the side. Sunday lunches are good hearty food in big portions, the kind of food my gran used to cook, and delicious. A mixture of people go here, I’ve seen blokes in suits holding meetings, families, students, young professionals and all sorts. Well worth a visit even if it’s just for the novelty factor!

An excellent place to spend a summers day. The pub is a convereted tug boat with a pontoon at the side to sit out on. Sitting out on a summers day and looking out at all the docks and Canary Whalf in the distance is the perfect way to enjoy an afternoon. The drinks are very reasonably and the weekly quiz is always fun.

The place also has comedy nights and singers aswell.

If you are looking for a reqular pub and you live in the vicinity then this is the place.

This place is a nice small quiet pub, i was there last weekend and spent the day out on the deck. Was beautiful surrounded by other boats on the dock, great socialising pub, with friendly bar staff.
I will be making this a regular place for me and my family in the summer.
Food is also served, and im aware of a comedy night on there too.
