Heavenly pizza from SODO. Most incredible staff going above and beyond to make sure Wellington doesn't miss out on pizza too so gave him some pepperoni 🍕 🐶 Super dog friendly, they even have their own dog menu with dog beer and many other dog treats, along with a jar of treats for fluffy friends to help themselves.

Five star food and pub! Quiz was brilliant but watch out for the Quizzly Bears, they are a force to be reckoned with

Hidden Gem: Everything everywhere all at once, this pub is worth going a bit further for. Classic, grand, London, Victorian corner pub. Narrow corner doors with proper vintage pub locks lead to a spacious hall bar, with a high ceiling and retained Victorian decorative detail everywhere; coving, large, round cornered windows, well decorated with hanging light chains, vintage flip down overlook windows, decorated pillars, fireplace, beautiful flower lights over the bar and aged chandeliers.

Delicious sourdough pizza! Nice pub, vibey inside and outside. Friendly staff putting up with lots of riff raff. 2 for 1 pizzas the night we went, set menu eat in only. We got 1: Fungi Five porcini cream, mushroom ragu, mozzarella, Coolea, truffle oil, parsley, walnuts (£15) 2: Wicker Man tomato, mozzarella, pepperoni, nduja, mascarpone & scotch bonnet chilli honey (£16) Both extremely DELICIOUS! Would like both to myself next time. Bottle of French rosé £32, was lovely so we doubled down on that too. No photos sorry too much rosé.

Tired, thirsty and hungry on arrival and was met with a warm welcome, great service, perfect pint and the best pizza I’ve had for ages (the Blue Art pizza). Background music at the perfect level and other patrons pleasant. Fantastic place.
