I went here last night for a friends leaving do. Lovely old pub feel to this place which has plenty of character. A mate was drinking London Pride and said it tasted fine and served at the correct temp. I was on the guinness which you can't go wrong with.
There was a lovely atmosphere with couples and groups of people dotted around the pub and dining room.
I ordered a Rib Eye Steak (rare) for £17 which had been recommended by a friend. It was one of the best steaks i've had in London and I eat steak a lot. It was served with beetroot and butternut squash wedges which worked really well and a parsley butter.
I'll definitely be going back and taking the missus for some more tasty food.

Definitely a food centric pub. The front bar, however, is available for drinkers, with the area to the right of the bar as you enter seemingly for diners (at least that’s how it looked to me when I was in on Wednesday lunchtime). There were four handpumps on the bar – two were not in use, and the other two were dispensing Timothy Taylor Landlord and London Pride. The Pride was OK.

Seating in the bar area consisted of sofas, banquettes and normal tables and chairs. Behind and underneath the banquette at which I sat was a load of firewood. An unusual feature I thought, until I spotted the fireplace, which I guess they must use for the purpose for which it is intended, in the winter. Now a log fire on the go in the winter really is an interesting feature. The food might be good (but I didn’t eat and thus can’t comment), and the menu looked varied, but I prefer the more basic pub. Having said that, the main bar area was comfortable enough and I wouldn’t mind dropping in for a pint if I was nearby, but I don’t think I would go out of my way to visit again.

Enjoyed a very pleasant lunch, Beer quality very good - enjoyed Ringwood 49'er
Had Timothy Taylors, Landlord, Fullers London Pride and 1 other which I cannot recall.
Kitchen open to view all preparation, warm fresh bread and attentive service.
Adventurous menu and what we had was very good.
I have been there in the past and it's been very busy and crowded, but today much quieter. Will definately return.

I don't know about the sunday roasts, but in the past when I've eaten on a weekday the food there's been excellent - really varied menu. A proper "gastro" pub rather than a place that reheats a few satay sticks.

It is however a really tiny pub and gets impossibly crowded at times. Also, for some reason they turned the outside, which used to be a nice area with a few tables and an awning, into a weird metal-ringed corral.

We used to go quite regularly to the Anglesea Arms for the Sunday Roast - as mentioned, it was expensive, but we always thought it was worth it.

Not sure what's happened but I am now inclined to agree with the review from heidir that the meal was exactly as she described.

If the publican ever checks this site, please, please, please - whatever you do go back to making the roasts how they used to be, rather than how they are now.

The atmosphere of the place is great, and it's a cozy little pub with a couple of good ales always on tap, and if they can get the meals sorted out again I would rate this very highly.
