Sorry to disappoint, I think the Freemasons Arms is one of the most over-rated pubs in London. The service is disgraceful, and while the food is nice, it's not much good if you can't get anyone behind the bar to serve you. The staff are rude and unfriendly, the food service stops too early and it's impossible to get a drink. It's a shame because it has great potential but we won't be going back.

Great Pub - Was such a treat to know there are still London pubs that have decent service with English staff (Or very good English Staff). Fast efficient service, good atmosphere, good beer. I REALLY hope management of this pubs stays around as this is one of the best examples of how managing a pub should be.

Have had some really good nights here,always had good service beer always fine.As been said it gets busy so for a quiet drink this isn`t the place.

The Freemasons is a good pub which does decent food and decent beer. The only problem is that being near Covent Garden is gets very busy and getting a seat can be a real problem. I therefore tend to drink elsewhere these days.

The Freemasons does however have one selling point over many others - it has Setanta. This means I will be coming here for all the upcoming England away games even if I have to stand.

Expected this to be dull and anonymous, but was pleasantly surprised to find it was a great pub. Will make a point of going back as I really enjoyed my visit.
