| Cosy pub with a regulars attitude Jokebox works a treat, and certainly has the patrons queueing (does also help if you like Now combilations as well) the_original_rawnsleys - 28 Jan 2008 12:43 |
| Nice to find a pub serving Flowers. That's a good place to start. If your missus is saying to you "you never buy me flowers" take her here. Small but charming hostelry with friendly enough service and a jukebox which is always a winner. Nice to find a such a down-to-earth pub on Drury Lane. terenced - 28 Jan 2008 09:00 |
| Went in for a quick pint while waiting for my missus to get out of work. Seem like a decent little boozer. Shall come back for the football and check it out some more. mrse1 - 31 Aug 2007 14:46 |
| Not to be confused with the Sun Tavern, 300 yards away on Long Acre, this Sun is a far more simplistic establishment with very few thrills or spills. Rather tucked away, far from the crowds, this pub is not very well known (I can find very few mentions of it on any web sites and it appears to have escaped BITE until now). A single room pub with wooden floor, traditional bar frame, basic furnishings, window ledge seating and plain picture windows, it is perhaps the simplicity of the pub that makes it fairly appealing. There are a few interesting old photographs of the Covent Garden market and some of its workers on the walls. It is hard to imagine that you are on the edge of one of London’s premier tourist spots but the Sun acts as an oasis of peace and tranquility when all the other pubs are laden with luvvies and babbling with foreign accents. 3 Real Ales (Flowers, Pride and Deuchers when I was last there). A basic TV (generally showing sport), fruit / quiz machines and unobtrusive but decent piped music. Nothing fancy but it worth a visit just to get away from the crowds. RogerB - 23 Mar 2006 13:29 |
