| Fine,small, traditional well-hidden mews pub close to Belgrave Square. It's a very characterful pub with many prints and photographs of the Duke of Wellington and his regiment, who apparently used to frequent the pub when they were based at the nearby barracks. There's a small bar at the front - the rooms at the side and rear are now used for dining. On previous visits, I've never really warmed to this place - mainly because I invariably seem to end up in conversation with some excruciatingly irritating know-all Americans who are touring "Yurrup" and have been directed to this pub by the local hotel conceirge. "Gee, ain't this pub cute" tends to be my cue to try to escape to another part of the pub , which is difficult given its size. On the day of my most recent visit - 6 June 2009 - the pub was marking the 65th Anniversary of the D Day Landings with a singer performing all the old 1940's favourites ( White Cliffs of Dover etc ) and free 1940's menu food ( donation to charity requested ) . Certain of the beers were being sold at 5p per pint to servicemen in uniform. Real ales on were Thwaites Lancaster Bomber, TT Landlord, Batemans XXXB plus Adnams. The TT Landlord was in fine form and, at £ 3.10p per pint ( to those not in uniform !) might be considered reasonable, given the pub's reputation and location. I've revised my opinion of this pub now - it's well worth seeking out if in the area. JohnBonser - 12 Jun 2009 13:51 |
| I would very much like to like this little pub which is almost unfindable down a cobbled mews. However despite the ales on tap and the presence of a convivial American contingent there are too many strikes against it: plastic glasses for outside (you can see why, it would be hard to get broken glass out of the cobbles, but I am sure the Belgians and so on manage), no photography policy, too crowded around the bar area, and of course it is ironically too popular for its own good. rainlight - 16 May 2009 08:10 |
| STOP PRESS! Native English-speaker identified behind bar! Must state that I've never had the misfortune to encounter a footballer in here. Flaneur - 31 Mar 2009 17:49 |
| Another reason to avoid this pub if wankpard goes in here. What a revolting individual that is. nickthefish - 24 Mar 2009 10:30 |
| Tricky to find. As previously said it should be a perfect little boozer, but it isn't. Pint of landlord rather dull, guest ale ok. Has a 'no photography' rule to placate some French diplomat who drinks there, and Frank Lampard has a half every now and then (so i was told). Actually, looking back that could have been a 'no fun' rule. Green_0nions - 23 Mar 2009 16:00 |
