Food pub. But it's history and ambience make it worth a visit. Don't miss the pie and good beers.

Still reasonable enough as a pub inthe evenings. The Harveys was good (though at 'Standard Hampstead' prices of £4 a pint it should be)

Went here for dinner on Saturday night. The food was good (once it eventually arrived), but the service was very, no ridiculously, slow. The staff were friendly enough, but there was no apparent system for taking orders from the various tables and efficiently serving food. We wanted a dessert but after waiting for 15 minutes for our order to be taken, we gave up and asked for the bill. However, the person we asked never came back and the next waitress to approach asked us if we were ready to order! It's a shame because this was one of my favourite pubs in London. It has a lovely old English feel to it and Sussex Harvey's, which is one of my favourite ales. But the service has steadily slipped and Saturday was just more evidence of this. Not a place to vistit if you're in any sort of a rush for food.

We visited this pub today after not having been here for maybe three years, when we lived locally. It still seems to attract the mix of local eccentrics (a bit) and UK/foreign (mainly US) toruists. A pint of London Pride was c. £3.60. The big shame is the time it took for the food to arrive (ages, and ages after another table that ordered 15 mins after us) and that it seems some of the staff don't speak particularly good English, which meant basic 'asks' of the bar-staff were staggeringly difficult (and reserving a table over the phone was also difficult due to the bloke's inability to transcribe my very basic English surname properly). Whoever runs the place should ensure better knowledge of English from the staff.

Seeing the old Benskins sign brings back memories; always a great pub; was in here earlier this week for the first time in yonks and it's as good as ever...
