I feel rabbit's review isn't warranted nor fair. Like most pubs, the Queens Arms shuts at 23.00 so ringing after hours could also be considered quite rude as the landlord and his family live on the premises. Unfortunately, pjakeso's review runs along similar lines.
Bottom line - its a great pub and very busy. This is my local pub and I think its fantastic. You do need to time your visit around term time and the Albert Hall. The menu has changed recently and they have lots of new beers/wines on offer. There are other pubs in the neighborhood that are less busy, but if you try them, you will soon learn why.

I have visited this pub less and less frequently over the last year, as it seems that during the busy summer months, the staff no longer have time to be courteous to their customers. They often close their kitchen early, and on my last visit I was hurried by the barman to place an order, when I should have had another half an hour to do so.
On a quiet night the staff are friendly and efficient, and it's a great place to have a beer, but I doubt their growing popularity will last long if the service remains this poor in their usually busy state. There is usually a long queue to get served, but you might as well get used to standing around the bar, because you're unlikely to find a free table to sit at.

Didnt even get to the pub as staff so rude- tried to book a table at 2330 on a sat night for sunday and got a rude response telling me to phone back the next day because it was so late-how disappointing after reading the reviews.

What a lovely place! Tucked away in a beautiful mews with cobblestone road.
Love the doors, although two in our party struggled to get in open;-)
Quaint inside and a great atmosphere. Get there early, there are few tables if you're planning on eating. Do yourself a favour and eat there! The steaks were awesome, coming from a South African, that's got to be good!
I'll definitely be back!

So nicely tucked away on cobbled mews street that it feels like a find. Friendly interior and staff, quick service and well kept beers. Had some lovely deuchers ipa. Good selection of food, all looked nice without being too gastro fussy. I had a decent burger. Would be happy to visit again.
