About Brewmaster
Light-filled pub with big windows, blackboard food menu, leather booths and design wallpaper.
First licensed in 1857 as the Swiss Stores and then renamed Scotch Stores, and rebuilt as part of Leicester Square Underground station in the 1930s, the architect of the new ticket hall and entrances being Charles Holden. The pub was substantially renovated in 2015 and a completely different environment was created. The main bar was moved, and the first floor is now more of a restaurant, and some casual bar seating, with brewing as a bit of a theme. That is included in the more crush bar high tables and seating in the main bar. There's a coppery look and feel, and the pub now offers craft beers and a guest or seasonal ale, as well as three Greene King own beers. It's not unattractive, and it will be interesting to see how it develops. There remains the entrance into St Martins Court - the backdoor? - and to tables and chairs. Children are welcome in the dining area and first floor family area. Disabled access is reasonable and to a toilet on the ground floor.

Amazing service and food at a very affordable price! Actually, I'm quite surprised at this finding. I'm definitely going to recommend this place! Also, as a tourist, I am very happy that they accepted cash as payment, as most stablishment I've been to do not.

Very nice and kind staff, especially Rafał who served us quickly and was very friendly, it was great having a short chat with him. Very pleasant atmosphere especially when sitting outside. The food is amazing. I recommend this place and we will definitely return again when in London.

Nice place, regular food and bad service by some waiters, te barman is so kind, but the other person who attended us was unpleasant/unfriendly.

Great location right on the edge of Leicester Square so you can sit outside and watch the world go by. Live music was on the Thursday night we visited which made a really good atmosphere and great guest song from the lovely girl bar staff. Well worth a stop for a pint or 2
