| Hooray for The Magdala. Popped in here a couple of Sundays ago after walking in and straight out of the hideous Garden Gate around the corner. We were a crowd of 6 very tipsy people and probably a tad loud but the staff and the clientele (even the ones with young kids) didn't bat an eyelid. Ace food, fine range of ales and alcohol in general and smashing staff. Genuinely friendly, very laid back and charming. It looks a bit rubbish from the outside, like it may be a coffee shop or something but it truly is a treasure, my congratulations to the people who make it what it is. JohnMcC - 6 Jun 2009 03:14 |
| Very nice, visited last Sunday made a mistake of turning left as I walked in but beat a hasty retreat from what looked like a cafeteria to the proper side of the pub. 3 pumps on but only Batemans (can't remember which now) available which was nice. Miles007 - 21 Apr 2009 14:53 |
| I know. MREILLY is a bitch! I heard her, too, that night. The only gripe I have about this place is the kids. Please take your kids somewhere else. No one likes the irritating little buggers and kids should not be in a drinking establishment anyway. If you can afford to have kids, you should be able to afford a sitter for them. Other than that, this is a great pub. It has an interesting history also. The infamous Ruth Ellis murdered her philandering lover, David Blakely, right out front as he was coming out of the Magdala. She was the last woman to be hanged in England. The food is great and so is the service. cpattana - 27 Jan 2009 08:13 |
| Well worth a visit, but not on Sundays, when it is over-run by Tarquins and Cressidas with their whining kids. Staff very good though, and does 3 real ales. Weekday visit advised. lobster56 - 25 Jan 2009 11:42 |
| Previous post says it all really. This is a nice pub, it is welcoming, and the food is consistently very good. But the main bar is "full of young families". I wish all those people who take their kids to a pub would respect the fact that pubs are one of the few places left where adults can enjoy some adult company and conversation, and not be prevailed upon to either casually look out for or otherwise indulge other people's kids. there are plenty of restaurants in NW3 where you can feed your kids while you grab a drink. Give us a break and go there. Your children are not that interesting to other people. adelondon - 20 Nov 2008 15:22 |
