The only pub I ever got barred from. Certainly didn't have an upstairs then.

Nice little pub with lots of character. Well I thought It was little, until I saw upstairs. Lovely dining room, which also doubles as a meeting room. Great idea
|
Nice bar,female friendly plus a very comfortable non-smoking dining room on first floor. Great food and a good selection of wine. Give it a go.

I went in the Redan yesterday to watch the Charity Sheild match. I was served a very cloudy pint of Youngs Bitter. Which I took back and got a pint of Greene King IPA with a massive head on it. This tasted OK but I began to notice that the bar staff were serving beer with massive heads. Even lager. Probably between 75% and 80% liquid. Then the football started and I asked if they could turn the volume up and was told "we're not allowed to".
So I left and went to the Porchester. But that's another story...

The Redan has just been tarted up. It looks a lot nicer (more traditional) now. Still hard to get excited about it though.
|
This corner bar at the bottom start of Queensway is a rather quiet and relaxing place for a pint or two before entering an Indian meal at one of the near-by restaurants.
|
a pub in a prominent area, good for meeting up and going elsewhere
|
one of those pubs where you could never imagine tying on a session,...all the punters are transcient,..one or two pints at most,...still,..it serves a purpose.
|
The upstairs room with a big screen is great for live sports. It gets very busy for big matches such as Internationals and Champions League so get there early if you want a seat.
|
The Redan is maintaining a traditional pub atmosphere in a Queensway area of increasing Mid-Eastern quisine.
Large numbers of travelers mix with locals enjoying a variety of largers and ales. Wines generally the average aussie drop. Food very competitely priced at two mains for £7.
|
Very few pubs called the 'Redan' (a Crimean War name) left. Pub ok, real ale, chips also. It's had a certain level of gastropub remake but it still looks like a pub, and there are many that don't even do that.
|
Pub average, but good screen for sports upstairs.

The pub itself is neither good nor bad, positives being the location and the not too loud music for the oldies amongst us. Look out for bag snatchers though!

Gawd bless this pub - One of the last few half decent pubs in the area. Over the road you have the first ever coin operated laundrette in London to look at whilst you have a beer. Fab
