Visited this pub yesterday Afternoon as part of "THE THEATRELAND" Dick Whittington Beer Trail. Usual good selection of Nicholson rated Cask Conditioned Ales, also punters can vote on the next guest ale they want. Agree with other reviewrs pub is either Too popular or Too Small. Still the Service and Atmosphere was good Would recommend a visit and the food looked good although I did not taste any, would go back.

Good solid little pub that is sadly due to its location and size very prone to overcrowding. If you can get there at a quieter time, it is a very pleasant place to have a few beers. Good range of real ales that are in good nick but are very pricey. Heineken on draft was spot on and the lagers in general are more competitevly priced. Food looks and smells great, reasonable price as well but I was in there too late for eating.
Cosy atmosphere and comfortable seating are two of its stronger points and a nice mixed clientele also makes this a decent place to while away a few hours. If anything the only slight drawback is that classic Central London syndrome of complacency. The upstairs serves mostly as a restaurant and whilst it was fairly busy downstairs they never thought to open the upstairs area bar so that some of the growing crowd could move there and ensure a more pleasant environment for all. There was also one particularly inebriated gentleman sitting in one corner spitting phlegm into a newspaper for at least an hour of the time I was there and despite many people moving away from him or leaving altogether and complaints being made, no steps were made to ask him to stop or alternatively to remove him.
These are however minor gripes and in general this gets the Monkfish seal of approval.

Pleasent pub with good choie of real ales. Quite atmospheric but why, why does it close at 2300 in Central London?

This is a very small pub that apparently has a restaurant upstairs. I had a few decent enough Heinekens whilst I waited for a few associates, but we had to leave as there wasn’t really enough room to accommodate a group.

I would probably go back if in the area, but wouldn’t spend the entire evening as it would seem a bit of a waste of time going to Soho and drinking in a run of the mill old mans boozer all night.

Unremarkable pub but very handy for meeting people due to its extremely obvious location on the junction of Charing Cross Road and Shaftesbury Avenue. Loitering outside gains a couple of points for people watching when the weather's nice though - if you stand in Cambridge Circus for long enough just about everyone in the world will walk past you sooner or later.
