Been coming here for a year and have just realised that it doesn't come up on Google as a vegan-friendly pub?? The vegan food is SO good. The menu is hyper-seasonal and changes often, so there's always something new and interesting to try, while the staples (best chips in London) stay. Photos are of new potatoes and asparagus with pea shoots and vegan hollandaise, gnocchi x2, home made salt and pepper crisps, deep fried celeriac with beetroot and kale crisps, chips with vegan tartar sauce, and a lentil and seared mushroom dish with salsa verde next to a carrot and fennel salad with creamed…

We had our wedding party here, can't recommend enough. Joel was really helpful in the run up with sorting out everything we wanted, answering our questions and helping us plan. The team were really accommodating with what we wanted - we brought an extra speaker for the dancefloor, lights and decorations. Pass Time kitchen sorted out extra food choices for us, and all the food on the night was delicious, nothing was left behind! Ryan the barman and Courtney the manager were really helpful, friendly with all our guests and very patient with us at the end of the night! Thank you so much for…

Held my husband’s birthday at the private venue upstairs which has the ideal set up with a private bar, pool table, darts, screen for slide shows and a DJ desk with good sound system. Loved the buffet, the quality of food was fantastic. But the most important thing is that the staff members were truly fantastic: friendly, knowledgeable and extremely accommodating. There was always someone at the bar, never had to wait to order our drinks. Special thanks to Joel whom I have been liaising with from the start, he took the pressure off me and made sure everything went smoothly. All our friends…

Authentic Sunday roast. We had a lovely lunch here with a bunch of friends. Staff were lovely both on the phone when I had a few questions about the booking and when we were in the pub itself. We all had a great time!
