| Always been a tourist trap this one and it remains so. I seem to recall the bar being along the left wall years ago but it's now in the far left corner (and too small!!). Early Saturday afternoon wasn't too bad in here and it was fine for a single pint break from shopping. I suspect it's a bit of a nightmare on Friday night though. murgatroyd - 21 Jun 2009 21:14 |
| Modernised triangular pub - not a great deal of character, but the barman was friendly enough and took the trouble to pour a commendably full pint (so rare in central London). The Hydes 1863 was in good condition, and really quite flavourful for a low (3.5%) ABV beer. There are better pubs nearby, but also many worse. rpadam - 1 Apr 2009 23:24 |
| I have to agree with missycoops, this is one of the better pubs in this area of London. The bar staff are freindly and the pub has a really nice cosy feel about it. The ales are really good in this pub but could do with a couple more ciders on tap mrs500g - 14 Sep 2008 21:23 |
| good selection of beers and even better selection of ales..bar staff were very nice, really chatty and friendly even though busy. looks a little dark from the outside but well cozy once inside. considering most of the pubs in the area look and feel the same its nice to find something different. missycoops - 14 Sep 2008 20:11 |
| Pretty nice place for Central London. Friendly bar staff, decent pint (the Guinness is always good and they have a decent selection of guest ales). It does pong a bit - and the toilets are pretty rank - but considering that most of the other pubs are tourist traps this pub's done well to retain a bit more of a 'real' feel to it. zebulebu - 11 Sep 2008 14:46 |
