Ye Olde Cock Tavern, Fleet Street

Great pub. Staff are lovely and really attentive. Manager used to run the Devereux and (as he did there) makes all the customers feel like old friends. More pubs should have this attitude. Food is a 'safe bet', not gastro stuff but good quality, hot, speedily served pub grub (and salads too).

Looks like the comments about the ales have been taken on board too because there seems to be a better selection of guest ales.

Pubs have to branch out now to stay above water, think what the effect of the smoking ban etc must have been. I have seen the poker in there and I thought it looked great. Very novel and they keep themselves to a separate function area anyway.

The best pub on Fleet Street by a mile...
