This is the greatest friendliest little homely pub i have been to in quite a while, Tom, who is the resident chef ( i say chef because this guy cooks with all fresh meats and vegetables)and a laugh a minute, makes all welcome, the atmosphere is just phenominal and the bar staff add to the overall friendliness of the evening, even the locals are there with a great helping hand, it is hard to believe in these days that there are still real friendly folks that gather together on a regular basis and serve the best darned food i have eaten out in the longest time. Hooray for the Irishman who could i think make any food absolutely great. You have not eaten until you go for his lamb shank, it just falls of the bone and has the greatest taste, i would venture to say even someone who does not like lamb, would enjoy it prapared by this guy. If i lived within a hundred miles of this place i would be there at least on a weekly basis.
All i can say is keep it up Tom.

Excellent food prepared by the resident chef, a wonderful Irishman called Tom who comes out and presents you with a speaking menu of all his home-made, toally organic and truly wonderful food. Good atmosphere, too, and a fun quiz on Thursday nights.

Has changed hands recently and this might not be good news for those looking forward to the friendly Irish welcome.
One of the great features of this place was the vibe - you really felt they weren't just after your money 'till twenty past eleven and then lights up and out the door.
The mix of different types was great too - everyone just rubbed along fine. It would be a shame if it turned into just another boozer.
It's still early days, so they deserve a chance.
The bar staff are willing and seem pretty capable, and the Guinness is OK - although the "normal" (not ice cold) option has gone.

One of the best pubs in Greenwich - if you're Irish the very best (ie. not a "theme" Irish but real) Great to watch football to - some passion there, and a good selection of real ales. Quiz night is good too.

very very nice pub. The best place to watch sport in greenwich. very friendly fast staff.

Fantastic staff, great pub beautifully run.

The best steak pie in the world!
The most eclectic mix of people I have ever seen - manual labourers teachers, students, business men and even chavs - a great "cosy" all day local for great drinking with good friends.
Great pint of Guinness!

Thai food now gone. New menu even better. Yum!
Quiz night on a Thursday is always a laugh. Quizmaster used to set questions for the Weakest Link...

Friendly competant staff. Great live music on Saturdays. You don't get many pubs like this nowadays.

Best pub in Greenwich beyond doubt. Friendly staff and punters. Great for sports watching, and for meeting your mates for a quiet pint in the week. The Guinness is good for you and so is the thai food!

Terrific Guinness (imported direct from Ireland I understand), great people both in front of and behind the bar, cheap prices and good thai food. The exterior may be a little intimidating but nobody inside is. Great for football or even a quick pint with the paper after work. A hidden gem!

Lovely friendly boozer run by a charming Irish couple - and a huge, diverse range of regulars. Has live music on Saturdays, a quiz night on Thursdays and has just started offering Thai food. Very big on football too - the owners are Charlton fans. Beats the over-rated central Greenwich boozers hands down.
