A firm favourite among Herne Hill's young professionals, the Prince Regent is an elegant Victorian boozer - etched glass panelling, dark wood stripped floors - which went gastro in 2005. A relaxed dining room offers comfort food classics (including perhaps the best vegetarian sausage and mash in London), while the main bar is an excellent place to pull up a stool and savour interesting independent real ales - on our visit, Wooden Hand Brewery's Pirates Gold. Some locals have complained about the number of precocious toddlers scampering around the place at weekends (an adults-only upstairs room offers sanctuary) but, whether for a romantic dinner, a bargain brunch or a sneaky Monday-night session under the guise of the pub quiz, this still feels like a proper pub.

I've been extremely disappointed with the food here and the prices are terrible. The locals now all seem to eat at the lido cafe which is opposite and open in the evenings now. The landlord needs to do something about the bad atmosphere at the Regent.
Twice I've eaten there and twice I've been disappointed. Variable food at Gastro prices. Pullens next to Herne Hill station is better. But better still, avoid English food altogether and sample the excellent Japanese ("New Fujiyama") or Indian ("Khans") both in the area. These two are way above mediocre.
I live 100 ft away from the Prince Regent, so I'd be happy if it were to improve.
