Former Courage street corner pub with an island bar and three handpumps. a very community focused house.

Following the retirement of long standing landlord, John Hanley, the Lord Herbert reopened under new management in December 2020 with cask beer and food now available and was rated #14 in Time Out London's Best Pubs 2023.

The pub is named after Sidney Herbert the 1st Baron of Lea, who also gave his name to the local area and the then new nearby military hospital, now luxury apartments on Shooters Hill.
