What was probably a traditional Covent Garden boozer has been "tarted-up" and opened out. Single room on the ground floor now in the ubiquitous pastel colouring with what looks like Laura Ashley funishings. I had a slight problem with the beer as the barmaid poured some of the beer from an old glass into mine!! I complained and she poured a brand new beer for me without any hassle. Thwaites Wainwright golden ale was the beer and it was fine but again very expensive - but I suppose all pubs charge high prices in this part of town.

Think this place has been refurbed recently. Not bad but not worth going out of your way for. It's got a more modern feel than I remember but perfectly passable.

visited her yesterday at 12 midday, had a couple of pints of Fosters... first pint out of the day I guess but it tasted fine. Had the cheese burger and chips... a bit steep at £7 but good portions and tasted great. Nice staff and atmosphere, 2 big tvs with the news on one and Sky sports on the other... I'll be back.

Lease for sale on the Fluerets website. Hopefully the next owner can save this once great pub.

Look pal, if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck - it's a duck. The regulars have gone, business is bad, and it's grubby. End of.
