This used to be a favourite; I went last week for the first time in several years.

The interior is of course still as impressive as ever. The main change was that it was 2/3 empty when I arrived at 5.45/6pm, and as it filled up it seem to be mainly tourists rather than lawyers and city suits.

A pint of ESB and a bottle of Sol came to £7.85, and the ESB tasted badly-kept (usually I love the stuff). Far too expensive for poor quality.

One of the better Fullers pubs in london with a good selection of ales including the seasonal. First pint of red fox this season and was on top form. Food also very good. As with most fuller's pubs it is expensive (food and beer) but well worth an occasional visit.

It's a perfectly serviceable Fullers chain - London Pride was nice, food average microwaved pub nosh. Perfect for a book group - big tables, quiet music, and after 7 o'clock, the lawyers have gone home!

A beautiful building where the suits and tourists happily drink side by side. Very well looked after Fuller's beers at not too bad a price.

Superb building with impressive interior. Good ale, most impressed. Only downside was the price. I know its in a prime location etc, but it was very, very expensive.
