| Tiny pub with the almost mandatory laneway at the left hand side. The ground floor bar is tiny with about three tables at the front aand half a dozen stools at the side. The decor was something like a kitchen after it had been stripped down before the painting and tiling had started. God knows how places like these carry on - it's not offensive in any way but has nothing much to recommend it. murgatroyd - 28 Jun 2009 19:38 |
| I hadn't been to this pub for a while and I am glad to see that while the decor may have changed, the feel of the place hasn't. It is still a cracking little pub with a friendly atmosphere and good beers. It is on Rathbone Street, hidden away a bit form the heaving pubs on Charlotte Street, but well-worth the trip. The place is well known for its pies from the upstairs pie room. Booking is essential at lunchtime especially, but after eating there, you'll know why! I won't leave it as long before my next visit! kopite1892 - 20 May 2009 14:42 |
| It’s a good few years since I’ve visited this pub, and judging by previous reviews I was expecting something much worse to have been done to it. It’s still reasonable inside, although it doesn’t have the “old pub” feel of the previous décor. False flagstones don’t look right, and nor does the distressed grey/green/yuk colours which the bar has been painted. This must be one of the smallest pubs around, with only one room (ignoring the pie restaurant upstairs which is not really part of the pub proper) and only a handful of seats and stools. They had Black Sheep Bitter and London Pride on – the BSB was fine, which you would expect it to be at £3.20 a pint. One plus to be mentioned is the fact that they still sell toasties and pasties from behind the bar at reasonable prices (£1.50 and £2 respectively). Not as good as it was, but still a decent pub. Image two shows how the exterior of the pub looks now, and in my view is something of an improvement as the tiling is now revealed from under the green paint. RexRattus - 7 Apr 2009 13:36 |
| Very small pub with limited seating options downstairs; was relatively quiet on a midweek lunchtime visit, but can imagine a squeeze in the early evening. The beer was fine and the food very tasty. The pies may be on the expensive side at £10 a pop, but they are worth it. DholeMoney - 14 Nov 2008 17:17 |
| Drinking here was like drinking in a living room that has been recently burgled. The upstairs was roped off and the downstairs was heaving with about 30 people. I had a pint of Standard lager (can’t remember what it was) and it came in at £3.40. In my opinion the surroundings do not warrant the prices. Strongers - 31 Oct 2008 11:24 |
