It's an appealing exterior butnalmost empty when
I ventured in on a mid week night at around 10pm. There were a few arsey student types (what college is in Soho????) but that was about it.

The interior was ok and the beer acceptable but I have to say it was a bit difficult to assess the pub with very few people present.

Attractive looking pub from the outside,a little dingy inside yet a wide variety of beers (Thwaites Wainwright,Batemans XB and XXXB,Adnams Broadside) all of which were sampled by the crew I was drinking with .However the quality of these ales is poor.Some on the turn ,others cloudy there is poor cellarmanship at work here.The Polish girls behind the bar are great,very friendly .Most drinkers spill out into Greek St much the the annoyance of the old bill who ushered folk back into the pub for blocking the highway.
Dubious beer quality is hurting the Pillars.

Popped in for a quick pint before a gig at the Borderline - on a hot Spring evening the Thwaites Wainwright went down well. Pub was almost empty inside because everyone was drinking on the pavement!

Not a bad pub, but I always find that the beer is a bit of a disappointment here (which is a shame as they currently have three ales from Batemans and two from Adnams).

Not so sure about the Pillars since it changed at the beginninng of the year but decided to give it a try on saturday for an early evening pint. not very busy considering it was a saturday.
Mostly Adnams and nice to see Oyster on but decided to have an pint of what I thought was Batemans at the far end of the bar. Tasted like dishwater so my advice is stick to the Adnams here.
