I came across this pub when i was travelling through London from Toronto, i had just got off the plane and was desperate for a beer and something to eat, i came in to find that the bar staff were not only friendly but very welcoming and helpful, i ordered the fish and chips and was suprised to see the gigantic proportion i was served, not only was it huge but extremely delicious and the hof brau extra cold which came recommended was a very good choice of beer which set me up for my day in London, would i recommend this pub? most definetely if you are looking for a pub with great food and a good vareity of beers and welcoming bar staff who are helpful and plesent then this is the pub for you

A traditional pub dating back to about the 1850's. It's a Hall and Woodhouse owned pub with 4 of the Badger Ales available on hand pump. Most of our large group ordered the seasonal beer 'Pickled Partridge'. It was a lovely dark amber colour and tasted lovely. They were presented to us in an unusual shaped branded pint glass. The barmaid serving yesterday lunch time was very friendly and welcoming. The pub offers a traditional pub grub menu at quite reasonable prices for central London. Our group mainly had either the steak burger or the all day breakfast. The food arrived pretty quickly which was appreciated as we were planning other pubs before the football yesterday at QPR. All of our group were happy with the pub, beer and food and would certainly use again if in this area.

I first discovered The Prince Edward while attending a college semester abroad program in the early 1990s (and it hasn’t changed since). While a bit off the beaten track, the beer is great, and the staff and patrons tend to be very friendly. My wife and I make it a priority to stop in during our yearly visits to London. We don’t have anything quite like it in Chicago. Is this a fancy place? No. But, it does have a relaxing, comfortable environment that must be experienced to be truly appreciated. It’s not too difficult to lose track of time drinking pints of beer at this place.

A very congenial and civilised pub off the drag with a good range of Badger beers to choose from. Surprisingly roomy too with a separate dining area, big fire and a decent sized telly for sport. Far superior to the dross round corner.

Great pub. I highly recommend the badger to drink, as I do of most lunch times, and the sausage and onion baguettes for a light snack at lunch time are spot on. The girls behind the bar are always very welcoming and make you feel like a mate. When all's said and done, a good and proper English pub with good ale.

An absoulutly brilliant pub.Stumbled across it at Notting Hill carnival.Although the staff were extremely busy,they still were extremely friendy and hospitable,unlike many we visited that day.The food was lovely,with a big selection to chose from.Its a very clean friendy pub that we have visited many times since.
|
An excellent pub. Good selection of well kept ales with a landlord who makes the effort. Food is also good value as well. I make a special effort to visit this pub when in London!

Plesant enough single bar Victorian pub, good enough for the area, but beer only OK.

A decent Local pub - and you dont find that too often. Good beer and ale and reasonable pub grub. The Karaoke on a Friday is a blast! Regulars and newcommers have an absolute ball and the talent varies from fantastic to just down right entertaining. The hosts are fab and very encouraging and supportive if youre a bit nervous. A great night out!! A very friendly crowd I would highly recomend it!

Decent Hall and Woodhouse boozer serving their beers. Big and jolly. A lot of tourists. Good pint of Tanglefoot.
A sign indicates this is the only pub serving Badger beers within a five mile radius. Unless the Mason's Arms by relatively nearby Marble Arch is five miles away, I think not.
7/10

A very comfortable, pleasant place for a few rounds and a conversation with friends. Not a place for people who need eight televisions or twenty music speakers to qualify as a night out.
The beer is generally quite good (I did have one iffy pint there, but that seems to have been an anomaly)--not a ton of selection, but enough that you won't be bored. And if you stick around the bar, you'll more than likely get drawn into conversations with the bartenders or the other patrons.
I've not yet been to Karaoke night, but I've been told that it's quite good for those who like it. I'll stick to drinking...

Nice enough place - a bit worn but comfortable enough. A bit wide open for my tastes with bar in the middle and big open room around it.

Monday night kereoke rocks! Once a month Dixie-land jazz is even better.

I have a perverse liking for this pub. It's a bit tatty round the edges but basically comfy, spacious and agreeable. Beer is usually good too. Not had any of the grub but it seems to do a good reasonably priced spread. Good for few pints before sampling the many delights of the nearby "street of a thousand resturants" - Westbourne Grove.
