I disliked this pub so much on a visit earlier this evening that I specially registered on this site so that I could make sure other people knew how horrible it was. It isn't the fact that it is located at the bottom of an office block and has as much soul and character as a KFC, nor the fact that even by London standards it is excruciatingly expensive. No, it was the smug way the bar maid said "we don't do small glasses" (when asked for a small glass of red wine) and then cheerily demanded £5.35 for my drink. Delightful. It has the air of a place that doesn't care if you never go back just so long as you stay long enough that they can rip you off at least once. In a word, vile.

Nice space to drink in and some good, if fairly zeitgeisty, ales. Nice grub too. Service is dilettanteish though, perhps I should have worn a tie and got my bum kissed, this seems to be the norm.

Lovely clientele, this place. I went there last night, and two city suits started arguing, picking up chairs and threatening each other. When the manager intervened, he got a punch in the face for his trouble!

I work just across the road from this pub and honestly don't think it's as bad as all these reviews make out. Yes the service leaves something to be desired and the clientele are mostly in suits (well you are in Holborn) but the food is great for lunch, particularly the burger.

We regularly have an after work pint in here and a good place to start before going on into the west end. I'm not saying it's the greatest pub in Holborn but there are far worse!

Agree with earlier comments: the quality of service leaves a lot to be desired, the beer is rank, and the clientele dreadful. Avoid if you have any sense.
