Fairly large pub in Neals Yard area of Covent Garden. Had three beers on offer. Harvey’s Young’s Ordinary and Spitfire. Young’s was in reasonable nick.
Given the size of the pub the amount of seating downstairs was quite limited, so had to go outside as the upstairs area (which looked quite nice) was locked.
Would certainly go back if I were in the area.

Finaly this place has been turned back into a PROPPER PUB. I used to frequent this place befor it lost its identaty and now I will start to frequent it again. It always used to be a great place to spend sunny afternoons so I can't wait for the summer.
On the beer side of things there were Youngs, Harveys & Spitfire(Harveys & Spitfire were of exceptional quality) & a good selection of lagers.
Good to see a traditional pub back in Covent Garden WELL DONE!!

Seemed pleasant enough, though was outside most of the time
Okay range on tap, but seemed a bit small inside...

As an Aussie visiting for the first time, i found the bar to be well looked after, the music ok-ish - jumping CD player though!
Staff were all a great laugh thou, especially the blond haired barman - what a spunk! and very charming too. Well worth a visit.

Not the worst pub in the area certainly not the best

Once stopped here for a pint of something, can't remember what but suspect it might have been a lager. Certainly can't comment on the ales. Obviously this has a fabulous location but otherwise I remember vert little about it so assume it is fairly featureless. A bit of nice ceramic work on the exterior.

Very busy modern pub, teeming with people. Was surprised that the Young's Bitter I had was in such great shape when it appeared the clientele was nearly all lager drinkers. Worth stopping by for a quick one.

I used to often stop there for a pint if I was shopping in the area. Always found the view out the large window to be good. Lots of pretty girls to observe while downing your drink.

A good bustling place on a busy intersection of three-wheeled Australians trying to run over the pedsetrians on Neal Street, and aggressive dodgy minicabs coming the other way, so good viewing overall. Cant remember what I drank, but Federer won the tennis whilst I was there, so must have been good.
