| Smallish street corner local situated in the heart of a lively cosmopolitan Soho street. As other posters have indicated, it's got that nostalgic old fashioned 70's feel to it, complete with formica table tops and tables and chairs and a trademark sticky carpet. There's nothing particular of note, but this is a pub that may appeal to those of a certain age group who remember when pubs were proper boozers where convivial company and conversation ruled. Externally, it retains evidence of its days as a Watney Combe Reid pub and the tiled exterior is noteworthy. As noted previously, the pub picture on this page is that of the other Blue Posts. The small central bar was serving Adnams and Courage Best, but I didn't sense that real ale was a major focus here at all. My pint of Adnams - £ 3.30p - was not particularly good and the people at the next table were not enthusiastic about the Courage. I find it reassuring that an unpretentious ordinary pub can survive in an area like this, but I do hope the beer is in better nick next time I call in. JohnBonser - 22 Dec 2009 13:05 |
| An old fashioned boozer of the kind I really like although they are diminishing in number both in Soho and London. The decor was firmly in the 70s but the pub had a certain comfortable ambience and a mixed crowd. Certainly it was quite crowded but the main noise was that of conversation rather than ear splitting music. As has been mentioned earlier the photo is not of this Blue Posts. Not the best pub in Soho but one where it is possible to have a reasonable evening. murgatroyd - 13 Nov 2009 23:09 |
| Pretty average sort of pub. £3.50 a pint. Not sort of place I would stay in, its one for passing through. birdnhandroger - 22 Apr 2009 12:39 |
| Proper, old fashioned boozer - including grumpy-looking landlord, indifferent but efficient barmaids, old bloke who looked like he used to work on a market stall singing songs at the bar and a reasonable pint of Courage Best. Not many places like this left in central London. rpadam - 11 Dec 2008 00:22 |
| This is a single room pub, with a handful of tables and chairs round the walls. It has a central island bar, and three doors (one not in use); typical of a multi-room pub that has been opened up. They had Courage Directors and Adnam’s Bitter on handpump – I only had the Adnam’s, which was just about OK. Nothing specific against this pub, but not a lot on the plus side either. A pretty ordinary place all things considered – I’ve been in worse places as well as better ones. But its "ordinariness" has something of a nostalgic charm about it. RexRattus - 21 Sep 2008 18:58 |
