this pub I know very well. I used to go here every Friday night and have a great dance. The pub then was run by an Irish fella, nice bloke, I fancied his misses, but she said to me that it wouldn't work. She was right. Only had one fight in here. Never got on the tables, but a fun pub at the time. Good Fosters, good staff and good company. Recommend to a tourist.

This is an excellent pub. Its friendly atmosphere is a must once you have been in there a few times the locals are very friendly including the landlady and landlord. There is a juke box, darts board, fruit machine, cigarette machine and pool table on a saturday night there is always live entertainment by some very talented entertainers. Just remember to treat others as you like to be treated. Shame there are not more family run oubs rather than brewery pubs these days. I would recommend this pub to anyone looking for a traditional Irish pub.

This pub was a pretty random find for me. Stuck in the middle of Pimlico, I was astonished to find an irish type pub full of working class people smoking and drinking themselves silly.
This is not a bad thing - a good unpretentious boozer, don't know how they will cope when the smoking ban comes in, but served an excellent pint of guinness. Posers stay away though.

Not a bad local pub. Nothing to go crazy about.

The Pride is a good local, with great beer. The natives are friendly and definitely not smelly (see Morag below). The owners are great.

Currently closed for renovation, I suspect it'll be another bloody wine bar.

In defence of the pride of pimlico, its an "exactly what it says on the tin" type of place !
Its a PUB mot a fancy neon light ridden hell hole which unfortunately have become the norm in London.. You'll never have any trouble in the pride, the pints are absolutely fantastic !!! Trust me i know a good one from a bad one, and this place treats its "gargle" with respect ! As i mentioned before it wont win any awards for cleanliness, but if a decent pint in a pub with some tradition is what you are after, then you can do far worse in Pimlico !
Now where did i leave my stapler ?

pretty much the nastiest pub in pimlico.last time i was in there it was full of old men smelling of armpits and the odour of the loos preceded their presence by about 20 feet. beers shit too.

Full of OLD irish men supping their pints ! Its about 50 Yards from the Pimlico tram, but worlds apart really..Pool table, no food, dukebox, and drunkeness is perfectly acceptable if not encouraged ! A bit dirty, but very very friendly place.
