| Mitchells and Butler have applied for a new license, and intend a re-modelling as a traditional Nicholson's operation, with extended hours for the playing of recorded music, late night refreshment, and the retail sale of alcohol - as well as opening up the first floor that will be predominantly used for diners - which may account for the need for a new license. It's quite a few years since indifferent Fullers London Pride used to be available, and back in the early '70s I remember the Mucky Duck as a dark, fairly dire dive .... As a Nicholson's managed house - one of their 'genuine London historical pubs with living character offering a warm and engaging experience' - we should expect a good range of real ales, wines, and a reasonable range of food. zorrodp - 30 Jun 2011 23:11 |
| Called in here 'cause we wanted somthing cheap and cheerful to eat. Didn't expect much and didn't get it either. Sandwich was OK but worst chips I've ever had anywhere (and that includes the ones the wife makes). Shall be more choosy in future. Sidders - 30 May 2010 23:36 |
| You've been to one, you've been to them all. Nothing spectacular, just a standard chained operation in the middle of town. Greegor_F - 13 Oct 2009 15:10 |
| This is the usual O’Neill’s affair with the trio of Guinness and standard/premium lagers available. I found the barman that served me to be very friendly, although my pint of Guinness was very short. It was pretty relaxed, but I did go in on a week night. I would agree that this is an above average O’Neill’s, but I’ll probably never visit again as there are better pubs a stones throw away where a full measure is served. Strongers - 29 Apr 2009 10:13 |
| I like this place. I frequently use it fairly early in the day, at around 1100, as my days in London usually start very early indeed. Unusually, I think it actually opens at 0930 or some strange hour. The 2 Irish barmen (one is the Landlord I think) are always friendly and welcoming, as are the other bar staff. Beers are fine, a good selection, and I have always found the food very decent and good value. The latter is available early too. Plenty of seating, and quiet corners, but can be a bit dimly lit if you're trying to read. Only drawback is a trudge out of the bar and up a large flight of stairs to the WCs. Convenient for Covent Garden's attractions, if that's your bag, but just far enough away from CG's crowds. jcraf - 15 Apr 2009 07:22 |
