Typical London’s pub, place is small but cosy and has its own history to tell! Amazing ales to taste, it is worth the stop here. Also prices are lower with respect to other pubs in the city. Recommended!

Nice London pub which is a stop on the tourist tours route. The barmaid was very patient with the group of Americans in front of me. The beer was delightful (Harvey's Best Bitter) and the wine too. Well worth checking it out but I would avoid a Thursday evening as it gets packed.

Spectacular looking from the outside, a bit rundown but charming inside. I went there last Sunday evening around 8pm. There were only a couple of other customers and it was pretty quiet, no music, no city noises, which kinda made me feel catapulted back in time, in a good way. The bartender, Aoife, was very nice and forthcoming, and, seeing that I sat at the bar on my own, engaged in an interesting conversation with me. Will definitely stop by there again on my next trip to London.

This is a tucked away pub in the back streets near to St Paul's cathedral which you most likely would not find just by walking around. It is small and old fashioned looking but just the type of pub that I was looking for. Because it is tucked away, it was not busy and I easily found a table to sit at. The staff were friendly and welcoming and they had a good range of beers and wines to choose from. I had a draught pint of Timothy Taylor's Landlord and it was in very good condition. Well worth a visit if you are nearby.

The pub was very full but the bar staff seemed to manage really well. They had gluten free beer, so it was lovely not to have to drink over-sweet fizzy cider. For those who didn't get a seat, the road outside is really quiet and the pavements were full. We had a good evening!

This really is a proper London backstreet pub stuck in the post war era. Your surrounded in the aura and feel of a proper London pub, yes it's small but well worth a visit. And the beer is great too!
