Local Hospitality
Experience the warmth of country hospitality, where historic charm meets hearty local tastes at the Mount Shadwell Hotel, or as the locals call it, The Bottom!
EST. 1928
Anchored in Community & Family
For nearly a century, the Mount Shadwell Hotel has stood as a beacon of hospitality in Mortlake. As locals, we (Uggie, Liz, Holly, Jack and Jesse) take immense pride in our role as custodians of this historic landmark.
Our vision is simple: to honor the pub's rich past while creating a vibrant, modern destination where the meals are hearty, the coffee hot, the beers cold and the welcome is genuinely warm. We are more than just a venue; we are a part of the local fabric.

Cold Brews
