The manager is a miserable, rude so-and-so. This place really hasgone downhill since he took over.

And the place needs a good bloody clean, too.

Went on a 7 pub crawl. Would have forgotten this one if someone hadn't written it down. Just plain ordinary and thats it....

Atmosphere: A good atmosphere with a real mixture of people; suits, theatre goers, shoppers and shop workers. Just enough out of the way from the main Covent Garden drag so that it's not too busy. A couple of large TV's show live sport. All in all a good pub with a nice feel.

Beers: This is where the pub really let itself down!! In theory there were 3 real ales, London Pride, Adnams and Old Speckled Hen. In practice there was 1 at most...........and then that ran out!! The manager /landlord didn't seem concerned as most of the clientelle seemed to be drinking lager (of which there were several to choose from).

Food: I don't think they serve food in the evening.

This is part of the small "Market Taverns" group of pubs which usually have a wide choice of excellent real ales, therefore I was disappointed that there weren't more here. The pub itself is good and a good venue for watching sport on TV, shame about the lack of decent beer. Maybe we were just unlucky.

Nice place, good pint and had the football on (with out sound which I prefer) although the bar man was unable to tune the other tv in for the rugby much to the annoyance of the people upstairs.

Great staff, but small bar. And no sexy barmen like the guy at the Crown ad anchor!

Like this place, will come back if I'm in the country again.
