A treasure of a beer house! Clean, friendly, quiet and set on a sunny corner. A true find, so close between Marylebone High Street and Oxford Street. Whisper it not to the massess men. Far too good a pub to share with the common herd.

Small single bar pub in Marylebone Lane, just off the High Street.

It's a former Charringtons pub, as evidenced by the green banded leaded windows.

The pub has a bit of an old-fashioned look to it, enhanced by the fine mahogany back bar and the etched mirror depicting a golden eagle.

An unfortunate colour scheme - purple-ish wood pannelling - and rather bare walls, however do create a slightly cold, stark feel and I can't help feeling that some local pictures of the area in bygone days ( for example ) would give the interior a bit of focus and a cosier feel. They would also fit in well with the general ambience of the pub.

Real ales available on my recent Sunday afternoon visit were London Pride and St Austells Tribute ( £ 3.00p ), the latter being in perfect condition and very tasty indeed. As it's only a smallish pub, I doubt they have the throughput for a bigger real ale range.

Note the old outside sign high up on the street corner above the door, describing the pub as an "Imbibing Emporium".

In conclusion, I think it's worth popping in for one if you're in the area, providing you can stomach the colour scheme of the wood pannelling.

Have not read all the reviews but surprised that not many mention the sing alongs at this pub. Every Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Mr Tony "fingers" Pearson plays the piano and just about everyone joins in. Pleasantly crowded on these days with a few real ales available. The landlord seems miserable but I think he was just made that way. There can't be many pubs left like this one and for me (an old git) it was an absolute gem found by accident. If you enjoy a sing song get yourself down there.
I would have given a ten if there had been some grub in the evening.

3 real ales on all in good condition, pub clean and shiney, but doesn't it lack atmosphere, a welcome from the landlord and a smile would help, so would the chance to get some food at lunchtime.

Traditional corner pub, see the previous entry for a detailed description, guvnor has been there for ages. Another surprisingly welcome survival given it is so close to the main area of Marylebone Road / Baker Street. Long may it be like it is.
