Small Irish theme pub, split in two. Just that the smokign side (with more seating) is larger than the non....
Does have guiness (a reasonable pint) as well as their newly launched Red Guiness (do not bother. It is just cold and very bland. Stay with the real thing).
The bitter does vary both in quality and range. 2 weeks ago the Pride was on the seen better days, whereas the Landlord end of last week was ok. (We only have been in so often, as others wanted to try the Red guiness).
Other pubs less sardinied locally and less smokey.

went in yesterday first time visited this pub , bit small but apart from that not bad , good friendly service beer was excellent not bad at all

The Cannon Street branc of O'Neills is the smallest in the chain I have ever come across and also, I found it to be quite an uncomfortable experience on my visit a few months back. The pub is split into two even sections of smoking and non-smoking. The smoking area was hot, stuffy and I just found it very hard to relax. Pubs like this should be just either smoking or non-smoking. They are not big enough to have two separate areas of equal size and yes, I am aware of the smoking ban starting next year! Other than that, it’s just a standard chain pub with half reasonable prices for the area.

Nice Food, Had A Free Pint Courtousy Of The Evening Standard.Nice Friendly Service.
My Rating 8/10
|
Nice outdoor space has been added which is just as well as the inside looks a mess
|
It's an O'Neills. Exactly like all the others. Enough said.
|
Went in today and it was full of kids, not sure if this is a regular thing but it put me off this place.

If you are looking for a gay friendly pub with a gay friendly landlord this is the place

Not a bad little place, beer and food is good, just not enough tables. Since the road outside was closed off to traffic it's nice to drink outside when it's sunny. Smoking and non-smoking section, and very nice barmaids. Usually full of suits though, and very un-Irish, to be sure. 7/10

Landlords version of sky sports is called TeleText.
|
Used to be good to watch all the life-trader dickheads poncing around in their bowling jackets flashing their money and dropping "deal tickets" all over the place,.....just a bit tedious now, without the cabaret,......overpriced
|
Landlord a bit "stiff" looking and not all that welcoming when I visited...maybe he was having a bad day...then again maybe I was as well....didn't like it and I like O'Neill's.

Once frequented by the Bank of Ireland staff whose London HQ is 100 yards down the road, all elements of Irishness have now been eradicated from this pub now that they've all been barred! Not recommended.

Typical plastic Irish pub. Only the barmaids make it bearable

Good landlord but boring pub. Only suits in there after 7pm and deathly quiet. The beer's nice though.
