I'm a little surprised by the negative comments on this place given that its one of the better Westminster pubs (god how this country could use some decent pubs around its parliament) and i quite like the dark limited space.

Having read previous reviews I was interested to find out if this pub really lived up to its poor reputation, so I visited with friends on Friday 28 April. I was not to be disappointed! I managed to get served fairly swiftly and the staff seemed OK if not very knowledgable. I asked for a pint of Spitfire on a hand pump, but it failed and the barmaid said the 'gas' had gone. Interesting comment as this was gravity drawn. Still, I had 2 decent pints of Bishop's Finger before that ran out. By 18:30 all of the beer had gone and there was no pumped lager to be had either. No bottled cider in the place and the cider tap was the next to go. The staff resorted to running up and down from the cellar with boxes of bottled lager at £3.07 a time. I have never been in a pub anywhere that has run out of beer by half-six on a busy Friday night. Needless to say we and most everyone else had left by 20:00. Off to the Sanctuary House for decent food and beer, but that's another story.

i agree the service and attitude to customers here is very poor.

Went here on a Friday night and was greeted by possibly the worse service I have ever seen. Beer was ok after I waited 15 mins plus for my pint. Sort out the service and it will be OK.

Had an office lunch at the pub on friday and were incredibly disappointed.

The food took a long time (We were warned 40-50 minutes - in fact it took an hour and a quarter.

When it eventually turned up one of the meals was cold. The manager stuck a thumb in the pie to confirm it was cold and sent back for a new one. This took another 20 minutes.

The staff were incredibly unfriendly and unhelpful, often blaming us for not ordering certain things (when the receipt said otherwise)

Whatever happened to the customer is always right.

I will not go back to this pub again.
