| Visited after a long gap with a friend who was interested in visiting this eccentric pub. Barmaid was quite pleasant when we brought our first drink - rather average Adnams. My friend wanted a second as he wanted to look at the photographs in the lounge(?) bar. It was a trial getting served by the extremely rude arrogant barman with head where the sun does not shine. Needless to say we had the third in Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese in nearby Fleet Street! MikeTheMechanic - 5 Feb 2010 18:05 |
| I totally love this pub. For me, no trip to London would be complete without a visit to The Seven Stars. I can't believe all the negative comments I'm seeing here. I assume they are from pampered tourists, unaccustomed to being part of the real world. Roxy, the owner, is a fabulous if eccentric hostess. She never fails to make me feel completely at home. The stairs to the restroom are a valuable tool to measure one's level of intoxication. Of course, if you find out you're unable to climb the stairs, then there is another problem.

| Not sure what to make of this place. A long, narrow pub with two smaller rooms at either end. The three rooms are painted in different shades of lurid red. Plastic gingham tablecloths cover the tables. We were served by a surly barmaid with an American/Canadian accent who was more interested in talking to the lone customer at the bar than serving us. Three handpumps, - the Dark Star Hophead clip was turned around, with only Over The Moon and Adnam's Broadside available. I had a pint of Over The Moon, which was a very good dark mild. A middle-aged lady with shocking pink hair, who I took to be the landlady, appeared behind the bar at one point. She seemed to be up herself. A dangerously steep staircase leads to the toilet which is a single lavatory. To the right of this an open door revealed what looked like an office, out of which was blaring loud opera music. I'm not sure what kind of place this is supposed to be, but it is certainly very strange. holbornboy - 10 Jan 2010 18:13 |
| Absolutely terrible service and attitute from the staff. Waited over an hour for roast duck only to be told very rudely that they had run out of everything, therefore “the food’s off”. No apology and generally very unfriendly. I would definately recommend people eat and drink elsewhere. mj74 - 4 Jan 2010 09:38 |
| Don't go! I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than support this place. Rude rude rude. Wait until the current owner goes out of business, then go! The place itself is quite cute, but the staff and owner have no idea how to treat people. We ordered food, waited an hour, to be told there was none left. No apology, nothing. Add to this a general surly attitude and they endear themselves to no one. They'd give the notoriously rude staff at Wonkeys a run for their money. An hour of this, and finally 20 of us left for the Cheshire Cheese on Fleet St, where they were fun and polite, made us feel welcome, and fed us - woohoo! timsy66 - 3 Jan 2010 17:55 |
