The beer was alright, Pride and Landlord but the food was just sad, didnīt have any pie though, but if they canīt get roastbeef sandwich right.... While ordering beer take a look into the kitchen, it will make you think twice before ordering any food.

This was my favourite pub when living in London. Backgammon with Tony most evenings were a pleasure. So was thumping "Dale of the Yard" the local police inspector. I know that Olive has moved on and wonder how the place is now. I moved to Cheshire in 2000 with wife, Charlotte & Thomas.

Visited this pub a couple of times on my last London visit. Was just down the road from my hotel. Friendly, nice selection of wine. Looked like good food. I didn't eat, but heard remarks from others who did and they were all favorable. Was a welcome place to have a glass of wine before turning in to the hotel for the evening.

On two recent visits (2 and 4 Feb 06) I discovered this pub and was very impressed! Among other ales, Old Speckled Hen was available and is superb to my taste. A mother and daughter staff provided friendly service. Two lunches were most satisfactory, with the food fresh and hot. Either they have toned the music down (see other comments) or it just wasn't turned on in the early afternoon which is when my visits were.

This is my regular watering hole. They have an excellent rotation of real ales on tap - and properly conditioned! Bass, Tetleys, Bombardier, and unfortunately Pride. The staff is friendly and very stable. It is rare to see someone new working behind the counter. My one complaint - Please get new music. The music is awful.

I used to go to this pub 20 years ago while I lived in Bayswater. Right off Bayswater Road. It was cozy then and it's cozy now. Unreal how it hasn't changed. Spotless, nice staff and comfortable. Nice little hide away from Q'way and Bayswater.
