Certainly quiet place and the most expensive in the area by some way... but also has some of the least friendly staff or management...

Please please please turn off MTV. Is a pub not for having a quiet drink and a chat ? This is impossible with gansta rap or what ever the filth is called blaring out. No one apart from the bar staff likes it.
The landlord does nothing when you ask for the racket to be turned down or preferably off. Otherwise ok..

It was my first trip to Europe on business. The last placed that I visited was London. The Constitution caught my eye, walked in, had a great time. Visited there the two night that I was in London. Surrounding is great, good old timers there, great selection of drinks. Food selection and quality is exceptional. Love the two lovely bartenders. make you feel right at home. A home away from home. Visit the week of 10.28.07. Miss you all there. Send me a note. I forgot to leave my business card.

Pretty old oak panelled room with nice carpet.
6X and Spitfire were fine.
There are 2 biggish tvs and it gets quite busy with sports watchers, but you can easily sit comfily and talk as well.
Joint first with the Jugged Hare in my Pimlico.

A proper locals pub right there in the middle of Pimlico. Most old fashioned and fairly comfortable decor, except the TV screens showing MTV. Fairly friendly atmosphere and the beer was OK too.

Smashing pub. The beer's okay - don't remember it being either superb or poor. What is great about the Constitution is the wide-ranging clientele. Locals who've clearly been coming in for years, a few suits, a few passers-by, a few youngsters and few drop-outs. Just what a pub should be. It's cosy, too. Lovely mad old lady is always there collecting the glasses - she's fabulous. Best pub in a mile radius.

Well the boyz like this one. Big portions of food, limited menu though, and decent booze. If you use the tables outside check the stability and the angle. Good ambiance with a varied clientel. Can get a bit smokey sometimes. 8/10

Hidden away in Pimlico, the Constitution is just far enough away from Victoria to escape the commuting hoards, and is all the better for it. The atmosphere is relaxed, the (mainly Polish) bar-staff are efficient and friendly and it has the most eclectic mix of customers in the neighbourhood: old geezers, well-heeled young gels, family groups of cagouled tourists, young hipsters, eccentric old ladies, local office workers etc. The food is standard pub grub but is inexpensive and served in large portions. Recommended. 7/10.

one of my fave pubs in pimlico. London pride is always top quality. Nice friendly atmosphere.

Yeah, it's nice & the suits can't seem to find it as easily as they can other pubs hereabouts, which is nice. It doesn't seem as friendly as it was 4-5 years ago though. Staff turnover I suppose.

Great little pub in Pimlico. Good atmosphere for the football and full of friendly locals. Only downside is that it is a bit smokey and the pints (Guinness and Stella) were £2.95.

Very good pub with excellent Guinness and friendly staff; gets a bit smokey at times but interesting crowd from varied places compensates for it.

On odd mix of old duffers bedding in, young French chaps watching the Rugby, a couple of crusty's in loud baggy jumpers... and then me and my cohorts there for a friends birthday before going to a club around the corner. Most cosmopolitan then but you wouldn't guess from the decor. Traditional wood panneling with pictures of old sailing ships, just as a pub should be. The locals didn't seem to mind the eclectic ambience imbued upon them - maybe this was actually a typical night? Quality.
Good for: Whenever you like.
