Rather surprised by blue-scrumpy's comments, as I was in there the same week and found it much better than expectations. The Brewdolph was on good form and the staff were attentive, with 3 + landlord Chris covering all needs on what was an obviously a busy night at the start of the 'Once a Year Drinking' season. Definitely one to make a beeline for in the area in future.

Pretty bog standard London boozer. It has a little bit of character, but is otherwise unremarkable. The 3 bar staff seemed pretty disinterested in serving and it was difficult to get their attention with people drinking at the bar. I was also short-changed by 3p off the quote price. But it wasn't worth the effort arguing. Fullers London Pride, Sharps Doom Bar & Solebay Brewdolph were the 3 ales on offer. The latter was dull and lifeless. Not particularly impressed.

A secluded Pub on a quiet Street that has been Pedestrianized just off the northern side of Leicester Square.

The Imperial never seems to get crowded so Seats and tables are usually available.

I have recent had my first Pint of Doombar there and may return to try another.

Never had a bad pint in here, not too bad at all for a quick stop off and prices not too bad for the area.

Must have walked past this pub numerous times since my last visit, but having just made my way through the heaving Leicester Square it suddenly seemed like it might be an appealing haven of calm. Traditional, if unexceptional, interior. Four handpumps, with usual suspects, but my pint of Doom Bar was fine (and not that badly priced for the area at £3.28). Nothing special, but OK for a quick pint.
